Re: Yet another planet capture problem

In my "test", I was using minimal troops, mainly because the system I am attacking in the game has all low pop worlds. I don't know if the mines that did survive were because of that small amount. ...

Re: Yet another planet capture problem

just had the chance to give it a try. Using 1.84, turn based tactical. The attack took two waves. Only thing in planet cargo were mines (no WP or Sats). Which were 22 Sm mines, with level 1...

Re: What new abilities would you like to see?

hmm, A racial ability, or advanced ability that gives terraforming to the race type, so no special facilities are needed to improve conditions or change the atmosphere. Could even be staged tech for...

How do you handle building the more mineral intensive facilities. Do you build the level one, the upgrade to level two, then upgrade to level 3 as you get each tech? Or do you concentrate on that...

Re: Average number of turns

Dice, was that 66 turn game low tech cost? And what was the starting tech level? If you don't remember, not biggie, was just curious.

Re: Yet another planet capture problem

That may be true, but what I read was that there was no bombardment, only troop drop. And the mines and sats vanished from cargo. I would want to know why also.

Re: Capturing planets, a question of practicality.

are both tests done, using an "end turn" in the middle of it? I noticed that it was not mentioned. Was just curious if the test that showed it didn't work, was run in the same manner as the test...
