Re: OT: Bagels...

Dunno ... I kinda like starchy treats in preference to sugary. Bagels, good crusty bread, flaky croisants if there's butter on them -- maybe that's what's missing for you?

Re: After 1.58 patch

I tried to play my first SEV PBW game a few days ago. The system wouldn't take my password, and I gave up after a while.

Re: where were you

I can't even remember ... did I download the trial of SE4 and was I playing it, without even knowing about the forum ... or not. Soooo long ago.

Re: OT (sort of): Farewell to the Master

You just scared the Carp out of me, Baron. http://message.snopes.comhttp://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/fish.gif I thought some SEV shipset builder or modder had died.

Re: Sphere world

As I understood it from another thread, the sphere/ring world component carrying ships/bases must be on those hexes that are shared with the star -- i.e. as close as possible.

Re: SEV Question: How/Can you move a base?

The task was fairly simple to mod in SE4, just define a base as a ship, with the same maintenance bonus and tonnage as a base. Is the a simple, Is a Ship? flag available in SE5?

Re: SE IV question on refitting

I haven't done this in SE5 as yet. Against the AI, medium size ships are adequate for offense and defense. Battleships and Dreads are just for show. But it may come up again.
