Re: Evil mod idea about missiles

And this changes would not significantly effect(decrease) game balance? The AI currently fails to research propulsion quick enough and only a few of the races research CSM or PD's. Why not think of...

Re: Destroying Enemy Shields

Along with shield depleting weapons, place a repair bay on your ship. It will help you recover the space marines and fix any damage on your "new" ship.

Re: Dumb Question

Re: Simple, Reasonable Disengage/Retreat Rule

The main problem with the "no borders" idea is that, when you engage an enemy in open space you start at opposite sides of the map. Two forces with matching speed would never engage. This would...

Re: Oh this is just sick and wrong

Tomgs, I thought this was how it worked but that could have been in ver 1.10. I also noticed that a planet will not always riot when taken by troops, so maybe that was the example I was recalling. ...
