Re: Call me Dr. Atrocities.

I totally agree... have played Civ I, II, and III for many, many years. Though I may leave it for a while now and then, I can always keep coming back (still play I every now and then even :p)

Re: Don\'t Get Hurt strategy messed up in 1.91???

I can't remember... is "maximum weapons range" still fixed at 12 regardless of weapon (IE, Plasma missiles), or does it now move the ship to the maximum range of current weapons?

Re: whats the math on mining bases?

It's not a good idea to build all 3 in one sector, as only one will function;

From the FAQ:
4.6.3 Only one Ship or Base can mine a location at once. Whichever is placed first will mine.

This and that.

The Sign are in their Last throws, and will not have any planets come next turn. I can't speak for the Yerdonian or Great Nut, as I have not seen their strength, although the...

Re: Gameplay tips & tricks

I've also had this problem. If I tell ships to attack, then load troops, very often the ships will just move on without reloading the troops, and thereby glass the next planets. I also attack-move...

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

In Simultaneous games (PBW), the attack order is 'seek after'. So if you tell your ships to 'attack' an enemy ship/fleet, your ships will follow those ships until combat, whereas the move command...

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

Instead of this, perhaps going (again) back to SEIII (and I think, unimplemented feature of SEIV?) - the prototype of a new ship design should cost more than subsequent constructions (+25%? +50%?)

I also would like to have more of a SEIII type construction - lay down the hull, and then build it up from there.
That would add a whole new element and purpose in small "lightning strikes" to wipe...

Re: What is the etymology of your moniker?

Tanus was a character in the book River God, by Wilbur Smith. Just liked the name when I read it, and have used it ever since.
