Meglobob's tip of the day:- No. 7 Ship type - Ferry. When u have maxed the engine tech line out ie...researched Hyperwarp 3, u should consider creating a ferry class ship. This ship will typically consist of 2 - 3 advanced troop pods, for 2B - 3B population and rest of space, hyperwarp 3's. Typical speed of this ship 60+ parse

a gigantic game in 1 year? How is that even possible? Races starting very close together on the map. All started clustered on the west part, with the rest empty. Lucky or unlucky depending on yr point of view. I viewed it as a opportunity for a quick kill...
Frogboy September 29, 2006 So really the first question is - would users be willing to wait until AFTER Christmas for an expansion pack if it had more features? Or would they prefer the original expansion pack concept? OR would they be okay with the expansion pack after Christmas as long as there was a beta program for those who pre-ordered it before Christmas? Frogboy posted this in the Journal section of this website. He wants yr opinion. Not everyone reads
One more question, does excess food impact the rest of your empire in any way, or is it only useful on the planet it's produced on? Being originally from North Dakota, a farm planet seems like a natural, if somewhat disturbing, construct. Yes it does. It can bankrupt u, rather like the E.U. agricultural policy bankrupts europe but heh...so long
if I wish to end my game by year 8, does that mean I have to finish in december 2234? thanks guys. I think December 2233 for 8 yrs. At least thats what my fingers tell me.
Yea there r tips a plenty if u read through the B.C. Space Orcas thread. No need to join but please consider it. I am constructing a list of 100 tips (1 per day), check it out u may learn something new. They r pretty much random tips, but when the 100 is complete I will try to put them all together in one post, for all. I believe the final 100 will turn any beginner into veteren, but be warne
Has anyone noticed that the Thalans r the most friendly of all races? Game after game, they always just go to friendly and stay there. If I have just military conquest on they r usually always the last race I have to conquer and I always feel a little guilty conquering them.
Meglobob's tip of the day:- No. 6 Build stock exchanges on 100% approval tiles, to turn the +10% morale bonus into +20% morale bonus, equal to the 3rd morale building in GC2 v1.31. BE THE BEST. JOIN THE BEST. B.C. SPACE ORCAS WANTS U. JOIN OUR EMPIRE TODAY.
Hello everybody, nice to see that we almost got the Diplomats ... Yep. I think we may catch them in the next week or two. <TD class="mb-Body-Quot
OR would they be okay with the expansion pack after Christmas as long as there was a beta program for those who pre-ordered it before Christmas? I vote this option. I pre-ordered DA and would be very, very disappointed if there was nothing before xmas. However I would like the expansion to be the best/highest quality u can make it. I w
I completed a gigantic game in just 1 yr but the score was pants, 50,000. My problem is like Mascrinthus, I win very quick, too quick. I miss out on alot of events like pirates, all pq 0 worlds becoming pq 10 or whatever. I dislike eeking a game out, especially as I have limited playing time.
Hail, hail Allianz Von K. 9,000 more pts to make a 1,000,000. Respect. U deserve the no.1 metaverse crown. Now, exactly how do u play a game that fast?
So I guess thats it then, the empire has thrown in the towel I'm not throwing in any towel. Hi CraigHB, I greatly respect yr loyalty to yr empire. However, unless Master
Hail Orcas. Welcome lovepump to the B.C. Space Orcas! I hope u enjoy our empire. Don't get used to that shiny 2nd place empire medal because all B.C. Space Orcas r going to get the gold 1st place one soon. We r here for the long term and utterly determined to get no.1 spot. U have a score high enough to qualify for senator st
I have started to check the date on 1st post before I read any further. I advise everyone to do the same. If no one replies the necromancer soon withers away taking his deceased threads away with him.
Meglobob's tip of the day:- No. 5 One powerful fleet to rule them all. This is especially useful on tight cluster maps or any other map where u have 1/2 a dozen or more planets close together. The scenario runs like this, identify an area where u have 6 - 12+ planets in lets say a 10 parsecs per turn sphere (ie...moveme
There's no evidence to suggest Frogboy is unusually good at playing GC2 - we only know that he's pretty good at programming it. We have concrete evidence, that a minor knocked him out of the game <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Laugh.
I do it, every bit helps...
I believe there r differences. I have always found the Altarians and Arceans very competent in war. Strange, u would expect it to be one of the evil races. Not sure if those use the same AI script or not.
Or to put it another way, does suicidal actually maximize the score? I believe it does. I like my full circle medal.
And yes, I think it might be because it's the path to the highest metaverse scores I can confirm that gigantic abundant everything gives u the highest metaverse score.
I like the attitude. I guess I'll have to give this a try. You must spend all initial tech development towards war ignoring developmental type techs. I get all the early techs that r cheap and give a galactic empire wide bonus. Like planetary improvements, xeno economics etc... but thats about it. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=
I greatly appretiate your hard work Meglobob. Keep it up. Everything helps. Thank-you very much for your efforts. TBAY No problem. Not the fastest player in the world, so this is my way of boosting our empire.
I meant attacking before the AI has completed its initial military buildup. Sounds like neither of you are doing that so I was completely wrong assuming that's what most successful strategies at this level use! I do this. I attack to my timetable not the AI's. If the AI's not ready for war, tough, not my problem, its Brad's. <img src="h
