Re: A thought on the Talisman / Live on Pay-Per-View: Geo vs. Fyron

But diplomacy (for the purpose of creating allies for you, the religious-tech player) will only work if you can find another player who is willing to ally with you -and- win the game with you as...

Re: What strategies do you guys like?

I enjoy large quadrants, team battle, with 7 - 9 allies (AI) and 11 - 13 AI opponents. It can get quite interesting with 4 AI empires breathing down your neck! Once (only once) I pit myself against...

Re: More expensive Intelligence projects

Is it the "Effect Amount" listed in the IntelProjects.txt file for the CI projects that determines how much of a bonus to defensive points you get?

If so, suppose I gave CI 1 and CI 2 an Effect...

More expensive Intelligence projects

In huge quadrants, late in the game, a player could feasibly produce so many intelligence points that he could not spend it all amoung his 12 intelligence projects (IP). For this reason, I have...

Re: Want strategies for seiging a planet

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

How about fighters equiped with "Target Type: Fighter" PDC's? I've wondered whether that would be effective.

Re: Max values for "Combat To Hit Offense Plus"

Does anyone know what the maximum values for "Combat To Hit Offense Plus" when used in Hull sizes, ship components, and planetary facilities?

Tractor Beams: can they pull you in, then slingshot you out the other way?

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

Wanderer's description of warships from 1805 to 1942 is exactly what I've been thinking. As technology advances allow larger hulls, the size of a "battlecruiser" will change over time. But Fyron...

Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

The default game defines "BattleCruiser" as 600 kt. Suppose that war ships were extended, in a mod, beyond the size of Baseships .... let's say to about 10,000 kt. Should the term "BattleCruiser"...
