You're going to have more than just the AI to fight OvermindPrime, if you threaten our friends in the Arrakis Imperium. Tread lightly... Sentient species taste better...
[quote]Well, I just went for broke and won, luckily. Turned all my stuff over to military pumped out about 30 transports and 15 medium hull sized ships divided them up and prayed to god I got good rolls on the planets. So it all turned out well. ~Also~ Why is my "custom" race medal not showing up with the rest of my medals? [/quote] Well done Mulfia. You're gaining victories at a nice pace! Thanks for the info Fights-With-Words, you are a veritable font of GalCiv knowledg
[quote]Cannibalism. Kzins taste of chicken and clouds, or butter and dreams. Either way.. .. .I need to do more Metaverse.

Also, a reminder to everyone that you need to set your best Metaverse character to "default", so that your medals will show up in your forum posts. :) Sentient species taste better...
Hegemonians... The Orcas have fallen, and the Kzinti now focus our senses on the next foe. Those who choose to join with us will not be devoured. Will you join the predators or become our prey? The choice is yours... The hunt begins today!!! Sentient species
[quote]* Beats random Kzinti with a sack of catnip. * Hellooooo.... [/quote] Welcome Mulfia. :) As Fights-With-Words says, a dangerously provocative action! It is not unusual for Kzin to kill each other in honor duels, or simply in a blind rage. But this is a perfectly acceptable way to resolve disputes between Kzin....it's also another way to weed out the weaker bloodlines. But the great news for the Empire today is that we have supplanted the Space Orca
Excellent game DethAdder! :) Knocked me out of the top 4, so no bonus point for me this time around....doh! Sentient species taste better...

I find them very useful for a number of different reasons. I always trade them the techs they need to build the three capital improvements, so that when I devour their tasty planet I gain more capitals. They are also good to trade/sell tech with, and get a bit of trade income. It also slightly ups the habitable planet count, which can be significant if you are playing a small map....on a larger map that effect is negligable. <a href="http://www.mypicshare.com/vqrpalptpic.html" target
[quote]Thats true, but only for your outgoing treaties. If you only get a treaty from someone, you can declare war on them without problem. For a time i was not getting treaties from minors cause i thought i wouldnt be abalt to attack them later. Now i get them all. [/quote] Very useful to know CaptainYar. I just assumed it would be a big reputation hit for breaking treaties either way. Thanks. <img
BOTF was a excellent game that I played for quite a while...great to see some more fans. :) They really should have made Cardassians much better than they were (although the Dominion mods really amped things up for them later), and the Ferengi were much better than I had expected them to be: In addition to making gobs of cash, their warships were quite good....cruisers had loads & loads of torpedoes. I did like playing Klingons, even though they werent very good. <a href="http
The Metaverse updates the standings twice a day, 12 hours apart. So your ranking wont increase until that happens. Sentient species taste better...
[quote]congrats Kzinti; I'll catch up to you yet though Chief Fights-With-Words just found out that my pen is indeed tipped with the blood of my enemies. [/quote] Thanks SB! <br/
Yes, that would be interesting to see. My empire has been at #1 for almost 4 months, and I wanted to get a sense of how that measured up to the other large empires from the past. I have compared the all-time totals with the other empires by clicking on them one by one, but there isnt an all-time category list for empires. It would also be nice so that older empires might be inactive, but not forgotten entirely. Thanks Mumble! <a href="http://www.mypicshare.com/vqrpal
From my experience with my main character Devilcat, it seems to me that there is no further score penalty below 20% after 50 games. I seem to always gain from 10-12k for the type of game I typically play with that character. Once I get some more RAM, I'll probably up the map size so I can increase faster. <FONT
I've seen minor races colonize planets very rarely, but it has happened a few times. I dont know what causes it to happen. Sentient species taste better...
It is indeed a most glorious day for the Kzinti Empire. We passed 7 million points yesterday, have expanded to over 250 members, and now are only about 20k away from displacing the Space Orcas!! Congratulations and great thanks to everyone who has helped to make the Kzinti such a smashing success. Every member's contribution is important. :D We have a number of new members...welcome to Chucksled, Ragnar1, TokoroPop, Kal-Diskenth, SublightD, White Morpheus, & COL Sayyer! May you a

Who won, the Worm-riders or the Twisted Mentats? ;) Sentient species taste better...
Good advice from both Iztok and Millertime. :) Diplomatic techs are always a trade of last resort, so I almost never trade them away. You want to maintain your diplomatic dominance. The tech "trade" is one exception which I always trade right away to minor civs, so that they can build their economic capitals, which you will later "acquire". ;) I like to keep the galaxy in a perpetual state of war so that the enemy civs are spending a lot of their resources on fighting each other.
The map size you choose will regulate the number of stars/planets accordingly. Percentage of planets/stars, habitable-planets/planets will stay the same as you change map sizes. I think you might be looking for abundant planets with commom habitable planets, from what you describe. <
There are many many empires on the Metaverse, as is plainly evident by you saying that yours is ranked 447th. In order to get people to join, you need to distinguish yours from the others in some way. How you decide to do that is up to you. But a good place to start might be by making post in the forums, because I see that there isnt anything about your empire other than this post. People certainly wont be likely to join if they've never heard of it. Also, try upping your games a bit so tha
I've never played a gigantic map (my computer couldnt handle it), so building 700 constructors is pretty much out of the question! Even "huge" present something of a memory problem for my system. Sentient species taste better...
