[quote]Earlier this year I emigrated to California[/quote] Back in the late 90's I lived in Venice, Ca. In the Westside area (especially Santa Monica) there was an enormous British ex-patriot population. Great Pubs!!! Is this a common thing, do a lot of English people dream of California in a romantic way? And, for once, I'm not being a smart-ass ;p This really is something I've wondered about for years.
So many Aussies! The place sounds great! (always has to me) Sort of like an uncrowded, polite America with British charm and Outback dust. Is it REALLY so great? I wanna be an Aussie, I wanna be an Aussie! :D

[quote]I tried to "give" another race the "priveledge" both times, but both times everyone voted that *I* should have it.[/quote] That's right; they're trying to screw you back by bestowing the same gift to you. Sometimes I think the AI's have "learned" too much from us. ;p
All of this is very true, just don't forget: the auto-surveying ship will not react to enemies! So keep a careful eye on it. I've lost the Hero more than once because the auto-survey pushed it right into enemy hands. :SURPRISED:
[quote]Stoke-on-Trent[/quote] Absolutely sounds like something one of my surfer friends from Venice, Ca. would say LOL (I used to live there)
[quote]My only overseas holiday was in Wellington [/quote] I'm assuming that's in NZ. (Remember, I'm just a stupid American. If we don't own it we don't know where it is LOL ) To be honest, after seeing the two LOTR movies, I think I may have fallen in love with NZ without ever seeing it for real. Or maybe I'm just being too much of a romantic (:(
terrytux: I answered your other thread before reading this one ;p I'm standing about 3 1/2" tall about now. LOL
Perry; Basically the game is a 4X, turn-based strategy very much like CivIII in space. CivIII was my passion before GalCiv came along. ;) Many of the things being planned for CivIII:Conquests are already in place here.(i.e. Morality) If you enjoy 4X's then you'll go nuts for this game! I highly recommend it and you will find that you will pick up the game mechanincs quickly. Mastering your particular style will take longer. Feel free to leave any other questions here, I'll try to
Wow, responses coming in from around the world. Oddly enough, I don't see any from New Zealand :) Is ANZAC really jusy AAC? :SURPRISED: BTW Anyone who could pass along the info on this thread to our non-english speaking players will forever hold a place in The TerraNovan Imperial Museum [Message Edited]
terrytux: [quote] (I see 3 in your profile[/quote] Stydracos is right, I see 3 scores under Terrytux in the Metaverse. Don't give up, whaterver the problem, it seems to be fixed now.
Well, it stank when it started...

Wow, I can't finish a post before someone else comes in and helps! terrytux: this will give you an idea as to how helpful and freindly these boards are. Welcome!
Just reviving my recruitment post. Yadda, yadda, yadda; everything I've mentioned before. Come join me, I'm tired of playing with myself. (Wait, that doesn't mean what it says ;p )
This may be a little off topic, but it seems along the same lines: I would like to see "Reverse Engineering" in some way. Maybe to quicken the path to a tech. For example: If you're lucky enough to find a Ranger wouldn't it make sense that you could achieve Ranger tech faster as your scientists look the ship over? Just thinking.

[quote]Your player name is vandycan [/quote] As far as I can see Stydracos is correct. Browse some of the other threads concenring game submissions if you have'nt already. If none of that helps, someone who is better at explaining these things than I am will be along soon. The community is very supportive and helpful! :D Ray posted just as I was composing my post; see how quickly we help each other! [Message Edited]
Thanks to everyone who has responded so far, keep 'em coming. It is turning out to be what I thought; a truly global community of players! :CONGRAT: BTW, feel free to drift as far off topic as you like. (Like any of us need encouragement to drift off topic) LOL P.S. :VOMIT: I haven't seen so many puking happy faces since college ;p
I've taken to playing only Gigantic galaxies lately, and to be honest I've had contact in the 1st turn (that was with a minor) and no contact until about 8 full game-years have passed. It really is all random.
