[quote]Seeker Master does his people a great disservice by spewing forth this propaganda about the demise of the FtoR[/quote] I am confused myself as to what brought all this on today. Oh well, gotta go back to the Prancing Pony :D They're waiting for me to buy the next round :)

Martin: If you click on your name in your post your profile will pop up. You are, at this writing, #1386 in the metaverse. Also, on the metaverse screen if you type your registered player name in the search box you will jump right to your entry. Probably the easiest way to check it fast is to just click your name and read through the profile. Your standing is in the summary at the top. HTH. [Message Edited]
Back at the Prancing Pony, Terl sits quietly, only sipping his ale sparingly. "This is nothing like kerbango", Terl thought to himself. Terl was concerned. What wild rantings is his emperor had been shouting lately! Theoden leave the FoTR? Terl knew better than that. Sure, he and Theoden had tossed back a few, but Terl knew Theoden was loyal to the Fellowship. Yes, Terl was one confused Psychlo. The emperor's new propaganda machine was running full steam. What the Psychlo devil
[quote]That sounds like the old Terl reasserting itself! [/quote] It's the Psychlo in me.... rat brains, everywhere rat brains!! ;) :D Geez, if only that plan had worked, I'd be back on Psychlo a rich Psychlo. Everyone would say, "Hey, there's Terl" with such awe. Danged rat brain animals... :D :D
[quote]Hey, Terl...I'll buy! [/quote] Great! I'll get the next round! :D Never mind my emperor, he'll rant on whether we're here or not ;) :D
Ummmmm, don't look at me. He's on his own here. Loyalty, schmoyalty, off I go to the Prancing Pony.... :)
[quote]Did the Empire of Light merge with the Fellowship?[/quote] Nah, we are just visiting and having fun. We are going to tip a few at the Prancing Pony later, wanna join us? :)
[quote]His eyesight, along with his judgement, seems clouded![/quote] "Clouded it is. Forboding the clouds are." [Moderator: Hey, Yoda! Wrong thread...get back to LucasArts! Darned little green puppet is always under your feet. And watch it with that danged light thingy!] BTW, are Legolas, Elrond, and Arwen done helping Santa make toys? ;)
[quote]yet you expect us to believe you can read the tiny lettering on the wings? [/quote] Hey, he used the palantir to see it better...ooops, that was a bad thing wasn't it? ;)
I started there as Samwise Gamgee, remember? You helped me a lot with the game and even got me to buy Galactic Battlegrounds (which has not been touched since because of GalCiv :) ) You do quite a bit of writing over there which is why I visit the thread every day. I love the whole Middle Earth storylines although I tend to be a bit irreverent and lighthearted about the stories. And you are right, I do enjoy "sparring" while in character as I have been doing. I have written a big ch
[quote]Seeker Master,Are you really seeking confrontation with the Fellowship? I should remind you about what happened the last time you tried to declare war on someone.[/quote] I hope he is not for we are not even quite half the way to a million and you are well over 3 million. You also have more overlords. I surely hope he jests, and believe that he does so in good humor. After all, we do know what fun all in Middle Earth have telling stories and such. What harm is there
[quote]That's just the Shire Foods ships, bringing in some more pizza and beer.[/quote] So easily deceived, the little hobbits are.... ;) Could SF be Special Forces, or could it be Sauron's Forces, or maybe Smeagol's Fish.... hmmm... tune in later.. LOL
Any wines from the fertile regions of Westerfield? They make some cheerful Auslese's and some quite charming Zinfandels. :D Goes great with Fried Drengin :)
[quote]I, too, predict that Terl's past will haunt the Empire of Light and will taint their search for the Light.[/quote] Interesting you should say this. So you really think Mr Hubbard gave an unbiased account of my activities? I was not that bad, really. That whole incident has been overstated. Numph was weak and I am sure his story is tainted, Zzt is just a mechanic, and why believe rat brain, erm, I mean the animal, wait! I mean Jonnie.... :D Give a Psychlo a break h
[quote]You need only look to Terl's past exploits[/quote] And I suppose you believe that rat brain Jonnie Goodboy Tyler over me? ;) :D I said before, I am a reformed Psychlo now. I was just kidding about the gold, and ,well, the rat brain thing, well, it is just a Psychlo idiom, yeah, that's it. :D It is not greed which fuels our ambitions, but it is the following of the path the Light has set for us; that is what leads us!
I would guess that they are focusing more attention on getting Altarian Prophecy done first.
[quote]access to cloning technology [/quote] That is why Saruman was not in the last movie, he was busy delivering and teaching us cloning. ;) LOL LOL [Message Edited]
The medals are fantastic! Great job and thanks to all who made them! :)
Thanks for this link. The thread is awesome! I have read through it twice and learned many finer points and tips/tricks. I started a game on challenging last night and used the colony ship method you started the SG with. Great move it turned out to be! I look forward to reading the rest of the posts as the game plays through. The thread would be an excellent resource for those new to the game and even those, like myself, that have a few games but want to get better. Thanks
[quote]Why disband them when you can sell them a weak player or aplayer who is at war? They're worth money or even better techs [/quote] I do that too. Forgot to say it. Bad thing to try and post from work I guess. :p
You can just highlight from the metaverse empires screen copy and paste into forum. Just format it after the paste. :) It won't paste the empire icon but all the rest goes in. Just format and done!
Though I cannot respond specifically for maso, I would note that I've found that the +25 does not give me free rangers (maybe once) but using uni's and the other pick to crank it to +50% I get them quite often. Granted this is on normal, but I do notice the extra pick gives better results. And boy do those rangers come in handy, especially if you get them early. They trash corvettes quite well :)
[quote]Just so everybody can see them before megatron get around to posting them, here's all nine of my alignment medals [/quote] Very nice! Good job! :)
I had a similar situation and the same two empires left. Did you try gifting ships/techs and trading with the Torians to get them to close? I had to give them ships and even a crumby system and then they flipped to close and I sealed the deal. Trading with them and gifting helps.
[quote]4) yes i've moved the transport to the system and attempted to unload them... and nothing happens.[/quote] When the transport is next to the planet, and the planet has no shield in the lower right, just select the transport and right click on the planet to attack it. The attack screen should come up as long as there are troops in the transport. Is this not working? [quote]3) yes i've destroyed defending enemy ships in orbit about the system[/quote] When you cl
