We need to think what happens in real life and have GalCiv emulate it. ~SDC~

The best you can do is change the options for each race as much as posible. As I understand it we will never see a multiplayer of GC. ~SDC~
You could also look at what that planet has and maybe cut out some things to reduce maint cost. ~SDC~
One thing I hav e found out in all my games is the in the begining the tasxes are negative at first then barely above 0 and eventually get a profit. But like said in other posts. TRADE TRADE TRADE ~SDC~
For increasing the user number of Stardock I would go for MoM. Personally I would go for SC but I see more future if you go MoM ~SDC~
It is just like the Government. Speend all your appropriations or they are cut back. And like real life what you buy could be useless/worthless. ~SDC~
I use 12087 and I can put two starbases next to each other if they are in defferent sectors. ~SDC~ [Message Edited]
I have been so busy latley that except for adding a game you prob though I was dead but I am not. Just diverted.
I use it as another obsticle to overcome. ~SDC~
I did click on the star before colonizing the last one and it said pg 15, 14. After colonizing got pg 11, 10. The pg did not drop for me untill colonization complete. ~SDC~
Since putting in 1.2 I have had 2 occasions of when scanning a system their is a planet with a PQ high enough for me. When I colonize the planet it shows its true PQ and I eithe pay through the nose to keep it or destroy the colony and loose the colony ship. Anyone else with this problem now. ~SDC~

What I can do still is auto survey 3-5 ships then it stops and so I save it and immediatly load the game and get another 3-5 auto survey moves. ~SDC~
I have the Survey ignore thing also. ~SDC~ [Message Edited]
It is easy to get hooked :) For stratagy I use the Sucession Games and the GC Stratagies Forum. But most important is trial and error. ~SDC~
Another goodie is when colonizing I found a yellow star with a 16 planet on. When I colonize the planet it changes to a 12 but the star stays yellow. Never had any probs untill 1.2. :( ~SDC~
Just got a CTD when redoing all my military projects the same month. ~SDC~
Colonize 15 and above. 14 and lower can wait for the AI does not seem to like them and also if a planet that is 15 or above is close to or in the same system I hold off on it till have the spare ship so can grow far and fast. ~SDC~
The lowest I will go is a PQ 13 (prefer 15 and above) but with what was said I will go lower for a temp base. ~SDC~
Also you learn lots by reading the Sucession Games ~SDC~
I like to play Gigantic and scattered clusters with every game a little harder (normal + at the moment)so put me on an intermediate team G. If you through me into the fire I will try my best but the team be warnd. We may go down in flames after blowing-up. :) ~SDC~
I am still reading to learn so I will be a lurker for a while longer. At the moment I play to play not win 1st, win 2nd, so my games are long. If you need someone and if you are willing to put up with newbie type playing then I am in for G. ~SDC~
Renameing of ships, planets, etc easier. ~SDC~
When a starbase is on a resource I would like to know what resource it is on. ~SDC~
When asked a question have a pause button so can look at the stats and situation before deciding. ~SDC~
