wery bad, AT. Wery bad.

136. You're trying to balance the weapons and abilities from Earth & Beyond and translate them to SE4.

Re: Evidence That Your A Bad Leader
 

Number 138. You are looking at this thread for hints on how to make your Empire Better!!

Re: Evidence That Your An Idiot Emperor If:
 

139. When you get your combat replay, you grab your joystick and fly your ships in combat. Your main strategy is trying to improve a killer joystick move to dodge enemy attacks. You are trying all the trick combat moves from Mortal Kombat III to see if they do anything cool in SE4.
140. You think Counter Intelligence I is the best mission, since you can complete it sooner than any of the others.
141. You confuse minesweeper with minelayer components, and are surprised when your attack fleet gets blown up when it was protected by several... empty minelayers. (I've done this.)
142. You cut back on engines on your ships in unmodded SE3 or SE4, to make room for other things and/or to save resources.
143. You argue for days and days on the SE4 forum about how Escorts with ECM III and only one engine are the ultimate game-winning design because you think they will almost never get hit. (Someone kept this up for an amazingly long time).
144. You keep sending speed-2 Proportions mod colony ships trying to cross black hole systems, but for some reason they never seem to be able to warp out.
145. You respond by sending warships to the black hole sector to try to blow it up with direct-fire weapons at it.
146. You consider your Green Giant system to be the best one in your empire, right after your Stellar Core system.
147. Your homeworld defense plans revolves around hoping alien invaders will be frightened by the unbelievable size of the Green Giant and the Stellar Core graphics.
148. Your homeworld warp point defenses consist of 100 satellites equipped with self-destruct devices and nothing else. You figure they can't be swept by minesweepers, and the first 100 enemy ships ought to be taken care of by those, since they each have enough explosives to destroy an enemy ship of any size.
149. You build World Ships with no components and then send colonizers to them to try to establish colonies on them.
150. You annhilate unarmed alien populations because you find it too much work to try to use troops.
151. Your empire has a super-powerful technology, which you can't learn how to pronounce.
152. You can't even pronounce "nuclear".

Re: Evidence That Your An Idiot Emperor If:
 

153: You don't notice that number 122 is missing until you read number 153.

Re: Evidence That Your An Idiot Emperor If:

155. It's Nukular
156. Your Emperor is "Homer" or Philip J Fry
157. You put one engine on your fighers.
158. The home system defense plan includes "Green balls of goo".
159. You always get saved by that pesky Deux Ex Machina
160. Your best captain is named Kirk and his first officer is mister Fukov
162. You skipped 161 because it was just going to be a Vulcan joke.
163. Your Race' ambassador is a purple telletubi (sp?), or for that matter any teletubbies.
164. You have your scientists disect your ambassador because you want to know what the hell a telletubi is...

Re: Evidence That Your A Bad Leader
 

165. Your emperor portrait is exactly the same as your population picture.

Re: Evidence That Your A Bad Leader
 

166. If you are first for the war, then against it before you were for it just before you were against it again.
167. If your bid for office is endorsed by the galaxies most wanted terrorist the day before the election.
168. If you believe the people who crashed hijacked passinger transports into your captitol were really just victims and not terrorists.
169. If you won your appointment to office by suing the election process and whining and throwing tempor tantrums until you got your way.
170. If your soul goal in becoming the leader of your people is to obolish thier civil rights, suspend the constitution and declare marshal law because you saw that Emperor dude do it in Star Wars and get away with it.
171. If you believe you are the Emperor from Star Wars.
172. If the Force is NOT with you.
173. If you believe in the force and know its not with you.
174. If your health care provider is also your population control bureau.
175. If you allow the free press to be free.
