Re: OT - I know we\'ve discussed this before...

If you like fantasy, the best I read in years is the Last trilogy by George Martin, and he is working on book 4. Start with "a game of thrones"

As for Sc fi, I just finished the 4-book series...

Re: What is the latest patch status?

This is probably impossible (too good to be true) but could the new patch affect ongoing 1.41 PBW games , to fix the Intel bug there? Some of my games are quickly going to hell because of this bug ...

Re: PPB is the best weapon in the game. Discuss.

Oh by the way, I did not know that WMG's get a to-hit bonus. Where can I see that? Do other weapons get that too and how do I find out about it?

Re: Somebody DEFINE the 50% refit rule please?!?

I thought so too but then I noticed something odd...I thought the cost of the components mattered...so:

Re: New resource facility idea.

I'm with geoschmo on this one...

with a normal race I get Minerals III, Rads II, and that's it. And Robotoids of course.
I have enough other things to micromanage..

Re: PPB is the best weapon in the game. Discuss.

Rich, could you be more specific about that fleet of smaller ships? If they won battles it was presumably due to combat bonuses (small=harder to hit) and numbers?
Because in my experience the only...

Aye, I enjoyed the bit of spice Rollo added to the end fase, once again I was eager to see the next turn come in and see If I had hunted down his fleet yet or if he would do more damage. He came...

PPB is the best weapon in the game. Discuss.

Hi all,

After playing for a few months now, it seems to me that the PPB (Phased Polaron beam) is the best weapon by far in this game, but that it unfortunately unbalances the game. (this applies...

Yep, Rollo is doing damage. My entire military was focused on the Yvelon and Irra-Nrr, plus a north fleet in case the Scron went hostile. I never expected a betrayal from the Space Vikings so my east...

Re: Spiralus PBW discussion thread.

Ah yes. As for the destruction of that homeworld: using the Yvelon's own logic, (which they applied to the Terrans), that was a military target. Homeworlds have a high construction rate and can...
