Dear all,

OK I am now set up on PBW as "Fist ofDeath" I know the character spacing is quite poor. I always liked that phrase from Alice in the Dilbert cartoons "Must control the fist of death!"

Re: New player struggling

Growltigga,

I make a good ally, as I would rather remain loyal to my allies, and see how far I can progress rather than constantly stabbing people in the back.

I am going to try Mr Dogs...

Re: New player struggling

Dear Dogscoff,

Seems like a good idea, I will just try and remember where PBW is and how you join and I'll see if I can manage it.

Re: New player struggling

Growltigga,

Maybe I'll try one, when they set one up for idiots who haven't been playing very long! I don't mind losing, but being massacred is a little disheartening!

Re: New player struggling

Growltigga,

I don't really have any human opponents, so I agree with you, massive defences at a warp point are unsporting.

Val,

How do i play multiplayer?

Hi all,

Possibly another dumb question. I'm getting moderately good at the game now, and can generally beat the AI on middle settings.

Re: Babylon 5 Mod

Dear Suicide Junky,

Dont defend planets. Defend Space. If the enemy reaches your planets it means your fleet has been shredded and you are already history.
