For the Good ethics bonus, what constitutes the "5 largest colonies with zero maintenance?" Is that the 5 largest colonies in population, or the 5 colonies with the highest maintenance? i'm pretty sure its population.

If I understand the Altarian super ability properly then yes. And Allies will ALWAYS come to your aid if someone declares war on you. As for getting them to declare war on you, as has already been said placing influence starbases or troop ships next to their planets should provoke them pretty quickly. Providing you're playing at a high enough difficulty. Oh yah... i forgot about starbases and troop ships <img src="http://images.stardo
Be careful about that alliance system. In my games my 'allies' usually only come to my aid when I'm already almost done with my enemy, but not sooner. Or do you play a race with the super alliance ability? I haven't bought DA... yet (i've only found the gold edition). so what is the super ability?
In my current game, the Alterians are the dominant power in the galaxay (uber big military, population and # of planets). Since I'm currently allied with all the other nations but none want to go to war with the Alterians, how can I get them (Alterians) to declare war on me? (I figure the alliance system would kick in and everyone else would be at war with them too) I've tried demanding way too many things, stationed military forces around their planets and even built starbases in their territor
I want to create a mod where all the civs start with all the technologies, everyone has massive fleet size, any it is possibe to choose which civs are present (eg. only Alterians, humans and Yor for instance). I would also change the starting planets so that the civs start with more than one planet. This would be my first attempt at modding so the instructions will have to be very basic. Thanx to all
