Reply to Colonising below 15 worlds in Strategies Stardock Forums

I've also noticed the lack of 15s cause the AI to colonize 14s, but not until a little later on. Which doesn't bother me, because they immediately start having morale problems. It's sort of like they resign themselves to settling for weaker planets.:p Still, I go for 14s immediately after all the yellow stars are gone. The earlier you can colonize those, the better, since there's not such a morale hit with a low pop. Of course, this is "Challenging" level strat, and doesn't pe

Just want to test something: http://www.galciv.com/metaverse/empires.asp?searchtext=The&Sort=Rank&order=ASC&submit2=GO Okay, that's the ticket! If we had a message stickied which had a link like the one above, it would be easy to do this. As you can see, the search above for any empires with "The" in them pulled quite a few that had "The" not as the first word, so whatever the renaming method is decided to be needs to be something very unique. Like "M2~" or "M2#" Serio

Okay, I like this idea. And I think I know how we can do it without having to completely revamp the Metaverse. Theoden's Plan for Fixing the Metaverse: Any empire which consists of a smaller number of players and who wishes to compete with similar empires on a more level playing field can rename their empire to something like M2-{empire name} . M2 stands for Metaverse 2, by the way. For example, something like M2-Kingdom of Aldar, M2-Borg, M2-Earth Union. If

[quote]What I think we need is more encouragement and support for those 3 buddies who want to form their local empire and have fun competing with other local empires. [/quote] Like having different levels of empires? Say having a level one group which would include empires with 40 members or more and a level two group with 20-40 members and maybe a level three group with 1-20 members? I like the concept, but I'm afraid fragmenting the Metaverse might not be a good thing, either. <br

Intimidated? What are we going to do, hunt them down and beat them up?? Look, we all have fun playing this game and chatting on the boards. I for one, recruit heavily. But I also try to encourage ppl to join the empire that they will have the most fun in. If you love Star Wars, join the Jedi Republic! They have a great Communication Thread and every one of them seems to have a genuinely good time with what they do. They aren't competeing for the top spot, but they are competing with the

Pontius, The :VOMIT: is perfect for G.R.O.S.S.! When I think of you guys, it makes me want to :VOMIT:! LOL Why join a bunch of pirates, when you can join an empire of powerful wizards and friendly bards? ;)

Rick, Good job! I find Large to be an okay map, but I still like Huge for not having to worry about a culture victory. I agree you can't see enough in Huge or Gigantic in the mini-map, but I usually zoom when I need to see up close. Also, the Huge maps have enough 13-14 PQ planets so that you don't have to cheese too much. I just colonise everything in sight and hope I get the events to bump me to Pure Good. With 5% PQ ability pick, plus Soil Enhance and Hab Improv, I
