Ah, the grownups left the gate on the Evil kindergarten open and they've come out to play....since WHEN did true Evil have to justify ANYTHING, or explain ANYTHING, or worry about flame wars?? And if we're talking galactic domination, it's clear you're going to have to be very Special to achieve that.... ;p ;p LOL LOL

Great going Hurls and Cypher (and you are never boring)!! :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: A flamingo hairstyle? Hmm.... Harel - thanks on his behalf but he's twelve years old - it's those younger operatives who have the toddlers!! He's just become interested in Warhammer minatures, so we splashed out on paints and models for him (it was model aircraft in my day). Hey - just for the sake of cultural exchange: what is "Sweeps month"?

Cheers!! :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: Well done to the Special operatives firing hard lately - Ginata, Jawa, Harel, Cypher - keep the flag flying (the Paw is kinda busy at the moment)!!!

Congrats and well played!! :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT: That phenomenon of taking over a world that is building an Avatar can be quite useful, as you usually dont have that tech and the AIs are loathe to trade it. My policy is usually to let the planet complete it, because the other thing you need depending on the situation is PROTECTION for all those nice palaces - which can be squished REAL quick by an errant space snake or pirates that pop up at the wrong time. I have had the he

Always got a cold one for you, Theoden - pull up a chair! Special Forces operatives are currently engaged elsewhere on a variety of missions, but we're still logging the occasional game; I do think some fatigue/frustration with elements of 1.12 exist but we are a determined lot - dont go to sleep again, there may not be another handy M.Downie around to recruit!

Cypher - thanks for the link, and congrats to the MWC statheads for their excellent work. I must say that raw score at least makes sense to me, a damn site more than Stardock's bizarre calculator (and I'm not just saying that because we're on top). Sherbert - I'll check our comms and try and come up with something for you!

Reply to European Empire Update in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Special Forces Situation Report: 07Dec03 Message from Observation Post Alpha 1-9z monitoring outbreak of hostilities between Jedi and Euro forces. Interrupted communication from Jedi Council command to field operatives re Operation ERASER. It appears Operation ERASER consists of the attempt to steal every eraser in Europe. This would mean that every time someone made an error filling in a form, they would need to throw it away and start again. Intel estimates 45% of Euro popula

OK Harel - I'll bite. Meet Friar Wombat, Cleric of Beelzebub and the Holy Tavern of Eternal Intoxication. Think Friar Tuck - with an attitude. A man of the cloth (well, several cloths, actually) who administers justice with a swipe of the Iron Paw and a whispered curse under his breath. Do with him what you will....

Hermann - mate, I'm feeling responsible! I still win with no military, and as you say you shouldn't follow any plan rigidly, but a few more observations: 1. Sometimes, if an AI gets a flying start (ie lots of rich planets in one sector) they will come for you no matter what. I have those games too, and have to just abandon them. 2. You are right to go green and yellow techs to develop trading bait for the AIs. 3. Aaberg's point is valid - DO talk the AIs into warring w
