I usually set taxes about 50% and spending as high as I can go without losing money for as long as I can. Definitely keep an eye on morale and build the entertainment network early so you can stretch the higher tax rate a few more turns. Trade is critical. I try to get freighters out the door as soon as I can. Once the routes are established I start backing off on the taxes. Definitely watch the leases!

I was wondering why there was no empire like this :) Hmmm, as Qwerk (Kirk) is your responsibility overacting and attempting to seduce alien women (interesting, a Drengin female, hot or not?) as in almost every show? :D I wonder if anyone will volunteer to be Wesley? [Message Edited]

I am sure many Romans laughed when told huns were at the gates and regretted such when the Truth was revealed. As it was so shall it be. The Light is and always has been... :) [

[quote]Do you want the mineral renamed? What name do you suggest "Psychlian"?[/quote] We could name it after the Psychlo mining site manager who discovered it while he was stationed on Earth with me, while we worked for Intergalactic Mining Corporation, and call it Kerium . Ker was a good manager and his discovery of this, yet unknown to Psychlos, mineral has been a great boon to us and we wish to share it for the sake of Goodness and the Light. (Seeker Master: In case

Maybe so but it was downright helpful yesterday. I had three planets in the Sol system on my last game and that's all I had until about half way through. :D [Message Edited]

[quote]default action is to quarantine e-mails with attachments on them. [/quote] I know that is how mine works here (at work now). Most attachments get stripped right off. You can try zipping them, as that sometimes will get them through (works for me anyway). Work just not understand how important this is; after all the galaxy is at stake!
