I dont know about the easier difficulties, but I've tried that on the harder ones and the AI just destroys the colony if you give them a substandard one.

I like to use extra events, but I'm kind of a purist when it comes to adding the other stuff.
Well, I just made Vice-Admiral, but apparently I have to DOUBLE my player score to make full Admiral. That should take a while.
[quote]Oh, well. Maybe after playing for a while I will memorize all this, but the old memory isn't what it used to be.[/quote] Don't worry, once you've played enough games, you get to know all the improvements fairly well. I can tell you off the top of my head that Economic Exchange improves the economy on the planet it's built, Galactic Stock Exchange is a wonder that improves your overall economy, and the Shopping District is a Starbase Module that increases influence.
Yes, certainly, welcome to the metaverse. I'm glad you got your scores submitted ok.
You have two sucessfully submitted games that I can see.
Not totally off topic, I just saw a news report in my last game that said that the Altarians were well on their way to defeating the space shark. There was no hope for the space shark at this point.
I had the EXACT same problem Paguma, and it was the Draginol who were responsible. I lost a game I had put about 5 hours into too.
Figured I should bump this
No, you misunderstand me PJ. I can deal with the Draginol. Its the fact that the game crashes and the file is corrupted that I have a problem with. [Message Edited]
The problem with that strategy is that one of the other civs usually resettles it. Thats what happened in a game that I had put 5 hours into. The planet culture flipped back to me, the Draginol came, and the game was totally ruined.
Or if that fails, just use mass drivers and bomb them back to the stone age. That will deal with those pesky overpopulation issues, ;p
I am SO close to both top 100 and Vice Admiral now its killing me! I'll probably break down and play another game tonight.
Has anyone noticed that the empire page looks different?
Well, I must say that those Paladins really piss me off right now. Totally destroyed my offensive against the Drath.
Thanks Ben, thats the basic idea. Council members who are inactive will be demoted, and Overlords who are active will be in line for promotion.
Well, I was just playing a game, going along nicely, all of a sudden the game crashed on me. So I try to load the autosave game. When it loaded up, the tech window popped up with no techs in it to research. I closed that out and i get a red screen where the viewing area should be.
Um, Yoda? I think you should post a more simple version.
Haha, thats one way to look at it
Well, I often find them useful for cultural attacks. It gives me a planet closer to the enemy, which I can build a starbase near to increase production and influence.
That is certainly what they are, unless you want to take the effort to help them out to make sure they survive.
I'm sure somebody here knows how to do this: I need to change my e-mail address on my account here. How do I do this?
Woah, we just got hit hard by the recalc!
Hahaha, yes. Don't worry, probably half of that is just chatter.
