Re: What now????

My disk is on the way to being an expensive coaster. I was counting on the single play being good because IMHO multiplay games will take way too long.

Mood v. Treaty Status

I noticed that some of the AI I was at war with had a mood of warm, receptive or amiable toward me. I'm not sure how to interpret this. Does this mean they are cheerfully blowing me away?

Cloaking

What's the best use for cloaking? It looks like I can't attack an enemy ship while cloaked. Is it basically good for sneaking around and setting up ambushes?

How Would You Rate The Design Minister?

How is the formation leader set? I was reading that the formation doesn't take affect unless a leader is designated. TIA

Re: 3D Graphics?

I've seen very few games so far where real 3D graphics actually added to gameplay. Thanks for clarifying what exactly 3D rendered graphics are.

Explanation of Minister Personalities

Is there an explanation of minister personalities. For example, how would neutral translate into decisions and actions by the AI?

3D Graphics?

I was under the impression that the graphics would be 3D. So far, nothing I've seen looks like it's 3D. Maybe I'm confused between the meaning of 3D graphics and 3D rendered graphics?
