Corporate machine looks like a interesting game, but I'm not so dedicated that I would like to pay to play multiple games or just to try the beta. Although it's not exactly a great system for a beta testing, it cuts out the need to pick and choose beta testers and all the administrative bull---- that goes along with that. I've read quite a few despondent responses to the pay to play beta from the people at the forum. Yes, people will ALWAYS NITPICK on the pros and cons of the s

Do you know where we should administer the poison? We have to stick it in somehow. By the way, which part of the poison should do the penetrating? Is it the wooden rod or the cylindrical lump of rubber.

Pontius, I believe I have pondered the wonders of a few moments of silence or studied the irrelevance of your posts or considered the amount of talking that goes into say so little. Have a little tact. Try creating something new instead of continuing tired old lines of thoughts or trying your best to tear apart the words of other men. Grekkan has some great creativity. I want to see him post more often. Oh yeah, use the quote button or put ["quote"] and ["/quote"] before and after you

It's a good idea, but I haven't tried it. I would give them a planet in the interior of my territory. Border planets are important for range. The problem with larger maps is that I rarely find minors until I am way up the tech tree and already going into social development.

Starfighters - Corvettes better in all ways Corvettes - Good Bang for the buck, nice early attack, also very good role player later in the game Battlecruisers - too weak, use these if your military bonus is lower than other civilizations and use to play the role that corvettes usually play Pheonix - strategically sound - better Transports - early rush - very effective, 1 billion pop usually takes out a planet BattleAxe and BattleHammer - if you play defen

[quote]I would like to publicly announce that in preparation for this conflict I have taken the innitial steps in creating an Army of the Republic. I have also requested of the senate that I be granted temporary emergency powers, during the conflict that I will take on reluctantly, and hand down as soon as this terrible war is concluded.[/quote] Very good decision! You know the old Romans use to do dole out dictatorships during times of crisis. The difference is of course, the dictator

[quote] I wish to begin talks with you regarding a subject that I think would benefit both of our empires greatly. Our wholesome ways here at the MWC are under attack by not only empires who stand for evil such as GROSS but also goody two shoes empires as the White Council. We at the MWC like your spunk and general lack of support for any alignment, just as we support no one alignment. My simple proposal is this, join with us, brothers of the Republic and we will become strong enough to domi

ha, if the Republic manages to assimilate the MWC, you'll have to increase your score by at least 279k points. That is going to be some crazy improvement in two weeks.

[quote] see, here's my q regarding that- frigates seem to be so damn expensive, and I take the approach of building swatchs of battle hammers instead- Its not the strongest offensive army, but its rock solid in defense and not as expensive. [/quote] frigates are more expensive to maintain but faster with larger range and 40% less in construction cost. if I want a cheap ship that combines the role of the corvette and the frigate (assaults trade routes, attacks colony/constructo

If you ever go to UP and have the arm transports option vote for it. If you can get a +10 attack or higher for transports, they are the best value for military power. If you give them +20 attack, they tear through frigates and are on par with battleships when they have the offensive. The AI won't use transports as offensive attackers even when they have the capability. But if you want to invade a planet, you'll need other military. Transports can't attack ships in orbit.

[quote]na, no dictatorship quite yet- the republic shall keep its rrots in freedom... [/quote] you guys are really going to need a dictatorship. No way the Republic will win otherwise. But you will have to hope that a great man rises to the occassion to lay low those pirates, but returns to his humble position after the time of crisis. Otherwise, you'll have to change your name from the Republic to the Empire. One bland name to another.

Is there any way to declare war without opening fire?

Some minors have a huge amount of money and one planet. I get into a war with them, and then ask for a peace treaty. I usually take their one planet and all their money, but it's possible to take their one planet and all their money for 50 turns. Sometimes this amounts to over 200,000 bcs.

Hey has the president assumed dictatorship of the Republic, yet. It always happens during a time of crisis. Although the dictator is usually elected.

Big deal. We've just begun to fight! We've been fighting doggedly for a long time now. What do you mean you've just begun to fight. You mean that you haven't been really fighting this whole time??? Someone should smack you up the head.

Your hope is mine, surther. Like a dark plague over the plains of the Middle West doth the GROSS leader spread his stench. Even stretches into the sacred meeting hall of the White Council, creating a aura of evil where there was none before. You know it is probably his evilness that has caused your morality to be neutral. While deep down in our own hearts, we are still pure, white, and good.

The spell held up for 3 hours. :) But this time the post has more substance. The Republic has openly declared war, spun itself into a state of emergency, and requesting passage through the land of the White Council. It can be assumed then that fogman has assumed dictatoral powers until the state of emergency is over. But will the state of emergency ever be over. Will he take the reigns of the Republic at a time of need and give it back when the trouble is gone? Or will he keep
