Classic threads...
 

Guys,

I know you have wanted this for awhile so I am creating a forum for locked FAQS that deal with the game. What I would like is for folks to nominate some threads for me to move there.

Re: Classic threads...
 

What exactly do you mean by "locked"? If the FAQ Boards can't be posted to, we can't put the "Frequently Asked Questions for Newbies" thread there until the thread stabilizes.

Re: Classic threads...
 

That's exactly the point. I am looking got quality older Posts that go over many of the details of the game, but may hard to find unless you search. If someone new wants to ask a question or participate in an active thead, they can do so on the main board.

I just want threads from folks that they think would merit inclusion in the other forum. Then I can move them and such.

Re: Classic threads...
 

Here are a few threads that might be good for inclusion:

Ok, that's enough for now. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Edit: Actually, after re-reading what Richard posted, I think half of these don't qualify. Oh well. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Classic threads...
 

Geoschmo posted a great answer to my question regarding the sight of cloaked vessels owned by empries that you have a partnership with. I think that would be good for this section.
