[quote] It can be frustrating. We are based in Vancouver, BC, so I know what it is like to have Anything shipped from the states [/quote] yea...i live in canada too... the mail man brought the package yesterday (20 feb) and its « carton pack list » says that the ship date was 7 feb : 20-7 = 13 days ! it was not 'cause of canada customs : this time, they let the package slip in without charging their outrageous [B]$ 5[/B] processing fee + federal tax + provincial tax !!
about defences...those gauss cannons dont seem to shoot far...i started building hangars w/ fighters instead : they seem to have a lot more reach to catch ships that try to avoid the cannons...would i be OK to do this : no gauss, all tac slots filled with hangars? if i do that, what is the best ratio of fighters & bombers? ive tried no gauss, only hangars w/ only fighters, and it « seemed » to work... a totallee n00b n00bette

I'm a 20 y-old girl. At the moment, I alternate between GalCiv 2 and Heroes of M&M 5, and between the forums dedicated to those two turn-based strategy games.

The goofy Goodies should remain as they are now : weak & pathetic, easy preys for the Dark Side. And the same goes on this forum in what concerns all the timid nice-guys who feel the need to add to their posts : "Please don't flame me"... accompanied by those naive yellow smileys & their dumb thumbs-up.

I am very confident that Mr Wardell and his programmers could design & code a smarter warmonger A.I. for the higher levels of difficulty...but (correct me Stardock, if I am wrong) there is a question of economics to consider : Is it worthwhile, in terms of time & expense, for the Stardock business to invest in many personnel-hours of design & coding to satisfy a small minority of customers who insist on an extremely competitive gaming experience?
