i think people are just posting to see their medals now :P

is this the medal club? :D
Does anyone else find that on large and above maps, its virtually impossible to tell apart starbases from ships, your units from other Civs. Ironically its better on my 17" monitor than my expensive 18.1" LCD screen. Could the Starbases be made a letter maybe? or an icon rather than a coloured dot? I would also love to see it "hoverable" IE i move my mouse over the mini map on one of the dots, and it pops up with "Starbase 121" or "Battleship 134" etc. Any cha
your about 7 patches behind Astyanax:) Current version is 1.02042. This bug was fixed a few weeks ago. ~SDC~
hmm i have had 2 CTD's in 2 weeks, both were in the diplomacy screen. Dont remember what i was doing ~SDC~
We need the old "My words are backed with Terror Stars!" routine from civ :D ~SDC~
MMmm slurm... Futurama is funny ;) ~SDC~
..and the map size..seems that your potential score doubles or triples for each map size you go up.
Your pop is a BIG modifier in my experience. You need 1500+ for the bigger scores.
Check how long they take to build, thats a factor also, Costs dont always have to spiral, time to produce is a big factor too.
They are meant to out class battleships though :) Same as the Ranger and Phoenix outclass Dreadnaughts The Avatar outclasses the Ranger and Phoenix The Overlord outclasses the Avatar The Excalibur outclasses everything. I have played a fair few games and find them to be nicely balanced.
What patch on Tuesday? A Standalone one im guessing. Anything new in there or just to bring people up to date outside Stardock?
join the club :( upgrading servers at work tonight..working 6pm to 6am..man i drew the short straw tonight :( ~SDC~
If i got rid of claire..who would cook, and remind me to eat, and tell me that i havent showered in a while.. lol Friends are noticing im "ill" a lot recently ~SDC~
I have read other posts about it working under VMWare, so i think your in luck :) ~SDC~
Also, should the military, econoomic size and number of worlds influence this. I beleive it *should* be a powerful tool, providing the Civ is powerful and a threat to other AI's. Also you should actually have to go to war, not just make peace the same turn, ~SDC~
Well i normally dont take much notice of the latest diplomatic cheese posts, i normally just avoid it, but this one i have noticed numerous times in games. Its way too easy to get the other 5 major Civ's to go to war with each other my just offering to attack a minor civ. Ironically you can then just make peace with the minor civ and laugh manically as all the civs start beating the crap outta each other. ~SDC~

Quit the UP..naw not a good idea..you cant trade without the UP, so thats at least half your monthly income gone. Plus other civs tend to hate you more. I wouldnt say the AI is flawed..i mean its not really the most viable and predictable strat is it ;) ~SDC~
You can actually have up to 10 trade routes. You can more through certain techs. ~SDC~
No chance ash! I dont want people knowing how much i play! I cant very well tell my g/f,family and friends i barely play it if the metaverse shows that! :P ~SDC~
Nope your stuck with it :| ~SDC~
Perfect :) I wont ditch the 15%PQ Godsend then ~SDC~
Yup, the problem with no saves is, what if you dont have 5 hours for a game..or you get a CTD. I rarely save except when my gf drags me away or for sleep : ~SDC~
give them tributes in exchange for them declaring war on the other races..spend that time building up..rush to battleships if you can, they totally own cruisers. ~SDC~
