You have to worry when the Dregin pops up after you've clicked on the BF2142 icon and says "I'm sorry Brad, you've been spending too much time with that application: I'm afraid it had to die. You're going to spend this evening with me!"

I have Civ IV and love it. Been playing warlords which adds more civs to play as but the only real gameplay tweak is that a state can become your vassal rather than forcing you to capture all of its cities. I've also just picked up CivCity.

Build a freighter and send it to an alien controlled world and you'll have a trade route set up. The further away it is the more money you make. It also improves your relationship with that civ.

Not strictly on topic for this thread but just wanted to say how impressed I was with the amount of stuff now available on TGN. I've been looking the other way at BF2, CivIV and GC2 lately and when I came back to SDC I found my games tab full of new choices. Guess you've been working hard.

I'm quite torn about this game: it looks great and will suck me in but I had to stop playing the Sims because I got too attached to them and worried about them losing friends and jobs...How could I ever send my socians off to war?

Then the AI would have an excuse if it found you were trading away all its techs to say "Sorry, but you seem to have given Laser III to the Drengin and we are at war with them. You're not getting any more technology from us!"

I think that thread overstates its case with such a polemical title but some of the ideas there seem worth considering as improvements such as uprating the value the AI places on its unique techs. On the economics idea: why not just decouple the social/military/research sliders from each other and have them each indicate the percentage of each total capacity that you currently wish to use? All 3 at 100% gives maximum output and a huge budget deficit, all at 0% gives no output and a hu

I'm so ashamed! I actually am an astrophysicist and I didnt notice the moon orbiting in the wrong direction! Of course, it could just be that we were looking at it from the South polar direction.
