Re: Drop troops on planet

Once it took 4 or 5 turns to conquer one homeworld and it was unmodded game (except the map). I didin't drop any reinforcements so the troop numbers/strength must have been quite equal.

Re: OT - WTF happened to AMC?

By the way, how often you have commercials in midst of the movie/TV program? For example, here in Finland, if we have 40 minutes show, there is first 3-5 minutes commercials before the show, then...

Re: Ship and fleet experience

You don't get any experience destroying planets/capturing them. However, I am not sure if you get any XP's destroying fighters/satellites (which often are on planets).

Re: Do You Ever Get Tired Of Playing SEIV?

I have to admit that single play SEIV sucks totally, but PBW rocks. Since my I dried my "wet ears" and moved into PBW from single play, I haven't played single except when creating a game for testing...

Re: Dunno if it\'s being looked at for the Last patch...

I haven't heard if it is fixed or not, but it is moving slowly with my computer also. It is rather annoying. Luckily it can be turned off. However, I would like to see it fixed.
