Re: Ancient Ruins & Advanced Technology?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Which begs the question about ability #2 or at least the one called: Unique. Is that for the tech that exists outside a tech tree or what?

Re: weapon mounts : did I missed something ?

I added a 'medium mount' for 300kt ships but it appears 'after' Heavy.

Re: Whoa! How does one even START this game?

I don't use ministers for one thing so doing what you suggest is not necessary. Ministers are a waste of time and resources and frequently screw up. I don't reccomend them - especially for beginners....

Re: Most Useful SE4 Utility

I prefer TextPad - smaller and quicker than the M$ product.

SE Modder and Viewer are my next most useful.

PSP and Lightwave are the next.
