the high PQ morale bonus is stronger than most people think, because it is a flat percentage. It can really save you, and allow for higher taxes. In most cases, a secondary is only going to drag you down because you can't get the population high enough to even pay off the maintenance costs. Another idea, especially if you aren't going for the MCC, is to research Xeno Ethics but stick with the Good Alignment to drop those maintenance costs. Every little bit helps.

I'm sure the Riit Clan is more than capable of handling any upstart Hero that would dare challenge the hierarchy that has been in place for centuries. But that's not to say that some enterprising other member of the Riit wouldn't take advantage of the situation. In a nutshell...I'm sure KP is secure.

true enough...though KP, if you just managed to get the Race Victory Medallion, you would have the most 'bling' out of all current MV players.

hehe...actually it depends on what time frame you are looking at. Earlier Greek mythos is more 'human' and involved with the lower planes. Later, in the Hellenistic Period and into the Roman synchronization, the gods were generally more honorable and 'above' mortal affairs. One did not rationally believe that there was an actual 'being' in the rain, but yet the spiritual needs of mankind were being met in the faith of the people, and the structure imbued by clinging to, yet adapting, the old my

@Everyone: Cool, well, like TGE said, at least we have discussion going. An ad hoc system wouldn't be too bad. @Wyndstar: What are some obstacles to look at/for in the tournament system? @Mumblefratz: Is there anything we can do to help you in preparing the write up on getting the MVL into the AltMeta? Are you aware of other things that have been brought up to implement in the AltMeta but just hasn't been done yet? Things like that.

i'm actually not surprised at all that Mag and Wynd have achieved such scores...no offense to Neilo, but if he can achieve 33K, then its no surprise to me that those other two completely trounced that. @Mag: as far as can be seen, 1.80g is generally considered one of the most stable versions of DA that has been released. Its not to say that its not without its bugs, some serious (very rare but random CTDs, OOMs) but in comparison to previous versions def. better overall. As for Space

to any Tyrants that don't have dual membership in the Olympian Gods...you're missing out on some super secret strategies that I know about and have never come across in any forums so far. Guess you'll just need to send an extra character over so you can learn these secrets of the universe.

Reply to Metaverse Council Suggestion Box in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

thanks for the input Wyndstar! Proposal 1 was basically a continuation and modification to the way the Council was set up before (with its members culled from the active empires). A more inclusive Council to me would be: No minimum or maximum seats but any person seeking to be a Representative must 1)have the support of some minimum amount of other players. I suggest at least five personally. 2) Have at least one submitted MV game and 3) be willing to work, good a

In the Databanks in the Upper Left toolbar there is a "The Story So Far..." that tells the history up thru GCII Dread Lords Technically speaking, the leaders from GCI (at least the human and altarian ones for sure) should be dead by the time the events of GCII happen. GCI starts in 2178 so even a conservative estimate on Alan Bradley would either make him extremely young when he took office, or extremely old now. In any case, truth be told, they didn't have a lot of money

Metaverse Council To the Councilors of the Metaverse Council: In an attempt to revive the Metaverse Council (also noted as "MVC"), I am putting forth for your consideration, the following proposals. Please note that some of these proposals may fundamentally change how the MVC is operated. Since I am not a member of the MVC, I present these to you to hear your feedback and ask for your timely action on these. Thank you for taking this time, Silverbeacher

i have no plans to try and govern the MV, Vukasika. What i do want, is to continue to expand and explore on what the MVC started a year ago. The ground work is there, just needs someone to take up the cause.

yea, i just learned you were a MVC Councilor yourself TGE. Actually, I didn't list any of the MVC's accomplishments, only tasks that I would like to do or expand upon. The main accomplishment of the MVC, for those that don't know, is working with the AltMeta. I will probably have a full proposal later today or tomorrow that I will post in the MVC Suggestions Box Sticky Thread. I will also send PMs to any MVC Councilors that are still around, and also invites to active empires
