Re: OT-Favorite SE4 Moment!!!

Longest Battle

Last game I played against the AI, I triggered MEE when I unmothballed 25 ships to repay a neighbor for trashing two of my planets.

A second empire's fleet, The Colonials, out of...

Re: Zen and the art of interstellar genocide.

If you want something along this line that will take 6 months to read and 12 to understand, then check out "On War" by von Clausewitz.

900 pages of 19th century German.

Re: Subgenres of strategy genre?! HELP!

Well, I am by no means a grognard, but I do own a few strat games and have played quite a few.

Just by your list, you are missing turn-based, which I am sure you knew. My personal theory on lines...

Re: Stick a fork in Robo-Miners, they\'re done!

I am well under way in the game I previously mentioned. By moving all of my mining off-world, I have freed up so much room for research (I am playing with the intel disabled) that I have double the...

Re: Stick a fork in Robo-Miners, they\'re done!

I took my own advice and decided to start a new game where I role-play an empire that does not want the planetary destructive effect of mining. I started with 3 planets and have nearly gotten rid of...

Re: Modding AI Research

Re: Stick a fork in Robo-Miners, they\'re done!

I am currently playing a TDM-mopack game in an extra large galaxy with 20 empires. I just modded the mineral miners to mine 1000, 1500, and 2000 minerals respectively.

Re: Stick a fork in Robo-Miners, they\'re done!

90% Organic content
127% radio content

Re: House Rules

I would just rely on player's honor. Most of us are honorable enough to abide by such a rule.

Re: Odd Thing I Noticed

Liga, I've also noticed the forgetfullness of colony ships, except mine seems limited to forgeting once they pass through wormholes. I find them sometimes several turns later just sitting on a warp...

Re: The Face of the Enemy (Destroy this Ship!)

Since you are looking to knock out most of his fleet and counter attack, without, I assume, leaving your system completely devoid of ships, traditional ship to ship battle is not the way.

I think this has been mentioned somewhere else.

I'll have to give it another go, but I am sure I've written it "Non-Aggression" before.

Boring? Perhaps, but a nonintercourse race would either make war or keep its distance. The race I am...

Re: easier ways to win when at war
