[quote]Aren't these production icons from Civilization? I do recall shields as the units of production but I only ever played the original Civilization and that was a long time ago.[/quote] I attempted the original Civ, but it was so long ago I can't recall. I defer.

What has always confused me is this talk about hammers, shields and flasks...well not flasks, that I get. [e digicons];P[/e] Each DA planet has a base 16 POINTS of production and 10 points of research. Industrial points produce research, albeit to a lessor degree. The formula is a straightforward # of structures X their worth X bonuses. Some bonuses are worth more (multiplicative) than others. I dont't mean to be trite, this is something I struggled wi
Well, I'm old school, but a few names are missing. Jimi Hendrix Eric Clapton Jimmy Page Gary Rossington George Harrison is underrated...listen to While My Guitar Gently Weeps Steve Hunter and Dick Wagner...Into to Sweet Jane may be the best guitar ever done. Edit: Intro to Sweet Jane IS the best guitar ever done.
[quote who="MottiKhan" reply="9" id="2316842"]Nice games, KP and jacklv! [/quote] Thanks Motti. Always good to hear from you.
[quote who="MottiKhan" reply="15" id="2316840"]It's been a while since we've seen any action here.[/quote] Thanks. If Snark ever gets motivated to spend the time, we'll have at least one more.
[quote who="Mumblefratz" reply="13" id="2315093"]Congratulations. Only the 8th person to join the club after over a year now. I think the first legitimate million point game was Livonya's 1062950 DA game back on 7/13/08.[/quote] Thanks. At some point, I'm going to try again for a DL million. Since it is harder to achieve I would get even more satisfaction..and DL is still my favorite of the three.
[quote quoting="post"] 1. How do I become a ranked player? I've played a few games that are submited to metavers, I have medals and a score, but in my account it says I'm unranked, so how do I get ranked? 2. Can any one point me more information about these "Empires" I keep reading about.[/quote] Go to Metaverse (select the button above) and once there select High Scores. This will show a list of players and empires by point rankings.
Thanks guys. Snark you were right. Also, I see that you pay your gambling debts. SerArris should be pleased.
Motti..are memberships still being taken?
[quote who="tppytel" reply="7" id="2312310"] Thanks for your concern. My response to Mumblefratz was a genuine question and not a personal jab like yours. I really want to know why people play this game and review it well. Right. Because selling someone something that they hate[/quote] Just to be clear, I have no concern for you, SD or Mumble. Your question was not only disingenuous, it was condescending. My point was, if you hate the game, leave it.&
[quote who="Ironmallet" reply="6" id="2312282"]Why be a prick? This game was touted left and right for its AI, but this isn't the first time I see someone complaining about it being stupid.[/quote] Simply because one repsonses in kind. I didn't have a problem with the OP. Almost everyone has as issue with the AI and has complained, including me. To start a thread on your way out is not good form, but understandable. But, when you begin questioning other playe
Nice game KP [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
[quote who="SerArris" reply="24" id="2311112"] He's upset with himself becase he lost that bet and has to sport a Pink Avatar for a while. [/quote] Well, let's see it. All the while I thought lavender would be a good color.
[quote who="tppytel" reply="3" id="2311601"] Brilliant. I don't understand why you play this game...Whatever... this is pointless. By all means, play what you like. I don't suppose Stardock will let me unregister my serial so that I can resell this game, will they?[/quote] Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. SD acutally might give your money back, but I would hope not.
Might want to check this out. http://snarceanempire.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gddlnz It's a site created by two of the best ToA players.

It's been long enough that I don't actually remember the specifics..but I do remember it being a pain. Go to the Metaverse and select account. From there you will probably sort it out. C'mon somebody...help this guy out...my dumbass can't remember.
[quote quoting="post"] I colonized a planet with a Precursor Library I decided to experiement so I placed a tech capital on the PL tile.[/quote] Tech or any other capital doesn't benefit from bonus tiles...it's not a bug. Your experiment is one worth trying, probably most of us have. At the same time, a Lab on a precusor and a tech cap is a sweet thing to have. Just don't spend like a drunken sailor. The planet research is the true number...plus the bonu
[quote who="e-stab" reply="14" id="2304610"] In the next week or two (depending on marketing scheduling) we have a new build of GalCiv II coming along He didn't tell on which planet these "weeks" take place. [/quote] [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] If you read very, very close there was no release date...just that it was coming along. And we all know what a bitch those marketing schedules can be.

To view tactical ship combat do the following: > Menu > Interface. Under Battle Options select Always Watch Players Ships in Full Battle. The "show" leaves something to be desired but it can be helpful in evaluating your ships performance against the AI. It's better to necro than start a new thread. If you don't understand something, don't wait so long. There is almost always someone around to help. [e digicons]|-)[/e] <p
[quote who="Snarkotamus" reply="23" id="2299537"]Is your traitorous new member only going to play the "good" alignment from now on? Not that I'm bitter or anything.

Sims is the Sims for boys. No one who has played GCII for any length of time would defend the ability of the AI. Being a new player, you seem to know a lot about the game...like playing "Tough". I would suggest playing a MetaVerse game (which allows no cheats) at Suicidal and post a score. On the other hand don't play at all and don't bitch about what you know nothing about. I wasn't aware Civ4 was doing so badly to send Sid Meier, Jr to promote the game.
It does seem like forever. Last time I looked you were still #1 on the AltMeta. Everything good, Eh?
According to the latest SNL news.....MJ is still dead.
