Re: Small Galaxy or Big Galaxy?

Master Balisarius suggested I try a game in a
small galaxy against 3 or 4 good (TDM) AI's.

All of them against me, something I hadn't tried
before. I can report its pretty good.

I used to...

Re: OMG!

Fantastic news!!
I can still remember playing the first level of
the first Doom.
I hope this one lives up to all our expectations.

Re: Small Galaxy or Big Galaxy?

I'll give a smaller galaxy a try with a few
good TDM's.

Whats odd is that sometimes the AI can be a real
pain and play pretty good. Then again it can play
exactly the opposite the next game.

Re: Small Galaxy or Big Galaxy?

Keeping up with tech isn't a problem, what can be
is watching the AI pass over my colonies without
attacking.

I've checked out AI's after 150 turns and they
all develop decent empires and...

Re: Small Galaxy or Big Galaxy?

Thanks for the ideas.
Forty planets per system seems a bit crowded!
Doesn't high tech cost hinder the AI?

Small Galaxy or Big Galaxy?

I usually play in a 250 system galaxy against 10
TDM AI's. Is this the best choice to get a good
SP game?

Would it be better to reduce the AI numbers and
play with less systems.

I play high...

Re: SE5, Tell Aaron what\'s on your Wish List

I'm sure this has been suggested before but I'd
like a more agressive AI.

I often see fleets of enemy ships wander past my
colonisers or outPosts and leave them alone.

If I setup a base in...

muntiny too often

Its probably my own fault - giving the AI too
much of a bonus - but the SP game I'm playing
(turn 150) is becoming a pain.

I'm using the TDM AI's with high diff/med bonus
and despite 500k intel...

Re: OT: Euro04

We did lose to a good team but so did the French.
I would love to have seen us win euro 2004 but I
love it even more when the big teams (with all
their megastars) go out to teams like Greece.

Re: A Few Ideas for SEV

Some good ideas. I've always liked the idea of
having named captains on ships to enhance its
ability to move or fight. The Flag ship is
another good idea.

Re: OT: Euro04

Last post was dead right. We had no midfield
worth talking about. The defence did ok but with
no connection to the forwards we were never going
to win.

Re: Multiple Planet start?

Not that the TDM AI's need a lot of help, but
I'll give it a try.

Thanks.

Multiple Planet start?

In the game setup you can start with more than
one planet. Would a multiple planet start help
the AI?

AI Ignoring settings?

After checking all the TDM AI's at turn 127 I
noticed that most ignored the lines:

"Fleets Percentage of Ships For Fleets" and
"Maximum Research Point Generation"

The settings were 80-90%...

Re: My Current SP Stock Game

Atrocities mentioned crashes.
So far in 18 months of playing I can't
remember having one.

I'm running xp home on a recently self built
P4.

Do other people have these problems?

Thanks for that. I've run a 150 turn game since
I sent that save file and most of the races are

It still could be but this "non reporting event"
