This is interesting. I've always gone all-out for dominance right from the start, no fussing around with alliances unless absolutely necessary, which as I got better at the game eventually turned out to be "never". Cotal, do you go for dominance at all? Or do you just go for the alliance as your top priority and not worry about getting ahead, since the AI won't hurt you if you're allied?

It was a 30% PQ bonus in 1.10. I don't think it's changed since then. You could always start a game and invoke a couple cheat codes, then pour espionage into the AI to see what the exact bonus is.

Smeagol is in FOTR. The person who said that is not in FOTR and never has been. Nor was it even in the FOTR thread. In short, his "team" had nothing to do with the comment you're criticizing. Even if it had factually accurate, there was no need for this

Yay us! Ray, I guess it'll have to be under 1.12.

Thanks for the update. Would you mind releasing a feature list for us to drool over?

That's exactly the behavior I saw. I don't understand it.

[quote]Also try playing the opposite alignment (well finishing as the opposite alignment realy is all that matters) to the other AIs. This gives your score a big boost too!

My last three games (maso/large) have one good, one essentially neutral (alignment 51) and one pure evil, all against 5 pure evil AI. They all scored in the 47K range. They were

Thinking back, I remember one time I was trying to go pure good, and never got enough events to get past neutral. I'm sure I wasn't at 50 in that game. So in 1.05 at least, you weren't required to have morality 50. I think I'll try to get a pure neutral in my next game.

Sirian, I just went by your forum. What's that entrypass thing that it wants me to install?

Reply to The Fellowship Halls (Fellowship of the Ring Empire Thread) in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I seem to remember getting some non-50 neutrals. Can't go back and test unfortunately.

Reply to Bug report thread v1.11.078 in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

In my game submitted on 11/13, my alignment was 50 or 51 throughout, and 51 at the end. It got scored as "chaotic good." "Neutral" would seem more logical. Sirian has reported similar experiences.

Ray, I just sent that file again to your hotmail account, along with a question. Smeagol, Ray said most of what I would have said. The one thing I'd like to add is that, while you take the Metaverse pretty seriously, you should try not to fault others for not seeing things the same way. It doesn't make them dishonorable or disloyal, it just means they play Galciv for different reasons than you do. [quote]It was difficult and I am really hating the UP. They keep making me pa

Are you sure it was a deliberate response to culture flipping, and not just a coincidence? AIs seem to build a lot of junk starbases, especially the Arceans.

Reply to The Fellowship Halls (Fellowship of the Ring Empire Thread) in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Here's another oddity. My last game I went pure neutral except for one 1-point "good" choice. So probably a dozen neutral choices and an ending alignment of 51. It registers as chaotic good. What gives?

Marqesa, I'm not saying that this is what you have to do to win. It's certainly possible to win at maso without using any cheese. However, it's not easy, so your first several times, you should expect to either lose a few or use cheese. After you've had some practice you can get away from that.
