Re: OT: IF\'s testing

I think he's testing "How do you keep a fool in suspense?"

I'm still waiting for the answer, tho. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

Re: Massivley interconnected systems.

Heh. More conflict indeed. Defending your territory would be tougher, with many more points of entry into your empire to defend and fewer (or nonexistent) bottlenecks....

Faster expansion for...

Re: Colony ships, for sale cheap!

I agree with IF about the racial points. Anyone wiling to spend that many points should get faster builds. Just wondering where you'd sacrifice, and what would happen when you meet other races who...

Re: Stealth Armour/Cloaking - possible bug

It could be done, making a sufficiently-hard-to-hit vessel. Stealth armor + scattering armor + ECM + vessel size + experience + racial bonus = nasty to hit.

Two problems I see, though.

Re: Colony ships, for sale cheap!

Ah, great minds think alike.... Making the colony ship hull low-maintentance sounds like the trick. And a player could still get a slightly-faster colonizer with a warship hull... though with the...

"Break formation" is almost always better than holding formation, because of the aforemetioned problem with ships flying out of range of enemy ships to hold the formation. But, I can think of one...

Colony ships, for sale cheap!

This has been bugging me for while, so I figured I'd vent and get feedback....

Colony ships are cheap. Very cheap. Too cheap, IMO. Thus, extremely rapid expansion and development.

I'm curious...

Re: Unique Mod Idea: would you play it?

I think this is a great idea! I think a big part of the strategy would be to determine how much of your fleet to go high-tech (which may work only occasionally) and how much for low-tech (which...

Some points to ponder.

Supposedly someone close to Osama bin Laden told a European (British?) newspaper three weeks ago that bin Laden was going to do something big and bad to the US.

I had ideas for adding 'Vehicle driven' and 'Alcohol consumption' into the code, but I forgot the details. Sigh.
