Re: C\'mon experts, EXACTLY what is Env. Res. ?

Uh, an unpleasant world will not kill your people off, but a plague will. You might want to watch a little closer next time to save your people.
But as far as I can tell, env. res. only affects...

Re: Mine Follies

Heh, you don't use mines, but you go around destroying stars? The AI has no reasonable ability to defend its stars. I doubt it ever builds system gravity shields, and it certainly does not park...

Re: Opinions please!

Whatever you do, you want to act before more ships get there. I have seen many occasions when an AI moves a defense fleet right next to my attacking fleet when I am actively at war with him. But...

Re: On the Physics of Repulsor Beams

Yes, I second the motion for the ability to tow bases or other ships, across systems and during tactical combat. I think that you should not be able to tow things through warp points, though. This...

Re: Small Anti-matter Torpedoes

Well, I think all the weapons should be balanced for weight and damage, and then factor in how much research you had to do to get it. DUC's should be good early, when you do not have anything else...

Re: Small Anti-matter Torpedoes

You only get one shot with rocket pods. But you can use torps the whole battle. I agree though, they should not be 10 kt, since you will get more damage with 3 DUCs. Most of the weapons in the...

Re: Solar Sail???????

Actually, sailboats do not sail with the wind pushing the sail. They operate by the wind passing over the sail, like air passing over a wing. In otherwords, sails are nothing more than airfoils. ...

Re: Solar Sail???????

Well, lets remember we are also using planet destroying weapons, things that 'collapse' black holes, and quantum reactors that can create infinite energy.
A solar sail definitely needs a star...

Re: Remote Mining

Yeah, we can remote mine with satellite Groups. I usually don't though, just because I don't like to waste time researching large satellites.

Re: Oh this is just sick and wrong

But the problem is that you cannot build on a rioting planet. I have this problem too, I sent in a fleet to wipe out the Drushoka, killing about half of their colonies and all their warships in the...

Re: Can\'t believe this...

Well, to be honest, I think you guys are full of it if you think this game does not have good AI. No offense.
These reviewers are right on this subject. I have never seen most AIs in other games...

Re: Freaky diplomacy AI

I find the AI to be a lot more unstable in the 1.19 patch. I have seen that kind of behavior by the AI in my games too. I find it ridiculously hard to make a treaty with any AI, even with no common...

Re: requesting a bit of advice...

If I were you, I would build more ships. Or at least mine the entrances to your domain. Sats work good for warp point defense too. If you have allies, you may want to call them for help. You may...

Re: Compiled Questions/Bug List/Wish List

I agree with that big list completely. However, on point 13 about point defense satellites, I don't think the weapons should get these abilities, I think the satellites should have this ability by...

Re: AI fighters needs better weapons!!

I wonder if the AI is told to research smaller weapons? I think I recall from another post that they do not research higher DUC levels, so they will never get a better DUC. However, if the AI is...

Re: Ring and Sphereworlds

Well, I think thats a really interesting procedure myself. I also think that it is something that should not be able to be done. I am not saying that you should not be able to retrofit your way to...

Re: FAQ...First 50 turns

Well, I only recently got the game, so I am not hard and fast on my early game strategies. Obviously, colonizer production is a major part of it. One strategy is to just flat out make colonizers...
