At the risk of seeming self-entitled, it would be great if, after conquering a given Wildland, the resulting fertile tiles were very high quality. I'll confess to being disappointed that they're generally 4-2-0 or 4-2-1. I accept the counter-argument that if you're powerful enough to take on the final encounter then you're likely winning handily in any event. However, I still feel a bit mardy ;).
Personally, I use high initiative lancers, backed by either archers or mages. Stinking mud is useful if you're ranged-heavy, but it needs water + earth. I love Juggernauts just the way they are now. They only give Ythril delusions of grandeur - faction ranking plummets once you've trashed their main Juggernaut armies.
Thanks for the suggestion; I'd tried the good old standbys like rebooting :). In the end uninstalling/reinstalling Impulse worked.
As it says in the title: my current version is 0.23 and it doesn't reflect the latest release. Problem?
I've got the pre-order acknowledgement from Stardock, but I can't tell whether Impulse 'knows' that I've done so. I'm very much looking forward to making this game exactly how I want it [e digicons]:dur:[/e] , but I'd hate to miss out. Is there any simple way to tell that I'm in? Or is the mere fact that I can see the beta forum enough evidence? Cheers John
Battlehammers might be more suitable as a defensive craft... ~SDC~
Yep, I just submitted my latest game and went from 13th to 79th on the ladder. "I am shocked and appalled" :) (10pts for the first person to spot the origin of the quote!) Taking tongue out of cheek, it's better now that the playing field has been levelled so to speak... ~SDC~
Well, I can empathise - I was rolling over the AI at crippling in 1.02, and promptly got my butt kicked using the same tactics as 1.03. What I do now (and while I'm not a great player, I'm not bad either), is to rush for trade goods, like frictionless clothing, aphrodisiac et al. I then go trading with all the minors/majors. This works _much_ better than tech exchange, with the obvious exception that the majors will never (in my experience) trade ship tech. In 1.02, I use

Yes, the submit screen comes up; I submit and it appears to access the network, but the score is not registered. I've played 11 games thus far, and no problems until now. I'm not running Seti, or any other background tasks (that I'm aware of).

Well, there seem to be more than one person experiencing issues; I'll just sit quietly and wait for Stardock to fix it :).

Just finished a game, and cannot submit to the Metaverse. Any problems that anyone is aware of? Cheers, John. ~SDC~
Yes, I was playing with the most recent patch. I guess I can live with the changes; I mostly want something done to relieve the starbase micromanagement hell...metaverse scores are the least of my worries!
I slogged my way through a Gigantic/Painful game, and blindly submitted my Metaverse score. Disappointed to see I got a whole 1600 points. Now, I could have gone for an earlier tech win, but I wanted the military conquest. How about an option to delete scores? I guess I was looking for smooth progression as my playing skills improved, and this kind of spoils things... Cheers, John. ~SDC~
And while we're on the subject of minor spelling mistakes, it is Starship Foundry not 'Foundary'. ~SDC~
