Avoid the ToA 2.03 patch. I found more new problems than fixed problems.

Hey jaclkv, nice 1.27 Million Point Game!!!! Your character now has more points than most entire empires!

A monumental achievment! Sentient species taste better... [/quote] Thanks!!!! I would have had another game to post today, but I made the mistake of playing V2.03. Don't upgrage to V2.03, it makes things WORSE, not better. Here's what
Hehe. Two games in a row: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/102109.jpg[/IMG] ~ Later That Same Day ~ Behold the 4 Million Point Character: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/102109a.jpg[/IMG]
It's been a while since I have been able to pull off this in a 500-planet map: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/101709.jpg[/IMG] It makes me wonder if econ booms have different intensities.
Sorry, but glowing-eyed Scottish tree-rat is just plain loaded with PWNAGE.
mmmmBWOOOOhahahhahahahahahha. The squirrels rule the galaxy again! [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/101209a.jpg[/IMG]
[quote who="jacklv" reply="3726" id="2399078"] That 7th year did it. [/quote] Only for a day, though. The score depreciation has kicked in and reversed the situation. Never a dull moment in the Kzinti!
[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="3723" id="2397242"] My latest conquest for the Empire! [/quote] Awesome score, especially for DA!!!!!! [quote who="Noctilucus" reply="3724" id="2397705"]Awesome score KP! Snarkotamus: I wouldn't be greedy, 10 of those planets would already do just fine [/quote] Now that you mention it, I have 9 that are Class 30 or better. With an econ boom, my two class 38s are each making a whopping 4000+ BCs per turn.
Wouldn't you love about 500 of these: [IMG]http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/ww150/ajkfjaioIIl9Wkk/100509.jpg[/IMG] And this is Without an econ boom. Wait'll I get my population maxed out and get to sky the taxes........

Here's another a$$-kicking tip from the Twilight Pub: Speed-boosting modules on military starbases can REALLY do some wonderful things! I have these on all 24 unts of my MSA (yes, I am building them again), and can send a 1/1 scout with NO ENGINES about 7 of the large squares (15x15 tiny squares each) in ONE TURN! Click For Screenshot Of course, it slows down to it's norma

You really need me to explain why a Scotch-swilling rodent with a pipe full of Snathi Loco Weed is better than all the others?
[quote who="GmOOnii" reply="3704" id="2384849"]Then question is How ships can you upgrade in ToA before OoM? [/quote] I've upgraded 12K with no problem. ToA's big issue is the massive lag that develops once you have a large number of ships.

Too bad our maintenance/rescue bots had just been configured for a "Repel Breachingg Pods" drill. hehe....err...oops.

[quote who="Robert Hentschke" reply="13" id="2371478"]Configuring freshly built stations for auto-build...[/quote] There's nothing more annoying than an econ base that builds trade modules when there's no trade route anywhere close by. I would much rather have attack/defense modules built after the +24 production is done. I'll bet there are some swell applications for MSAs. I don't build them, but I have seen plenty of folks complain about the drudgery involved. I'm ju
1) Locks up when pirate ships (from destroyed AIs) attack. 2) Locks up when scout ships "bump" planets. This is infrequent in some games, but a chronic problem in others.
I'll Definately use that first one! *Note to Self: Turn off the macro that uses "!" before posting next time* I'll look for some opportunities to incorporate the second one.
