I DID IT ! I FINALLY DID IT !!!!!!

Mistake number#1 - don't build ships without engines. And so I did - all my hundreds of fighters stored in Centarian I and Centarian II
have no engines !!! And I wondered why Jraenar wiped the floor with my carriers .

I don't give up yet. I'll replay from some older save game before I saturated all planets with unfunctional fighters...

ashes to my head... This is the ultimate disgrace: Post the supposedly the BEST SOlO SE GAME and build hundreds of fighters without engines.

Pandorians are doomed. They need better leader than me

Jesus ! i just can't stop myself. Such trivial mistake...

Sounds like you started a great game, Oleg.

Oleg, use the [save Backups folder] for AIC, enter the folder to see what to copy in to it.
This comes in handy to archive; before or after an event in simultaneous games and only requires Copy and Paste skills.

A good race name can be the Centurions from the System of Centurion, if you like Tittles for this story, which is indeed a great idea and I would be beholden.

Actually, I would like to package your story with every AIC release, when you are finished.

The best way to start with Centurion rich Systems is to generate one to your liking from the in game Quadrant menu with the Centurion Ruins map (AIC v3.01+). You may generate one to a few hundred Systems from this map… In addition, it is great for a one on one game as well.

I recommend you set the AI player count, relative to the Systems that you generate, for a balanced game, the less AI the better; for you that is. Remember, the AI likes those artifacts too.

Play with no Bonus for your first few games; the AI Races for AIC plays very well in the none Bonus start games.

Use any options you desire.

If you have any question, Please email myself and /or post here or the AI Campaign thread.

Have fun….

My story !? when I finished !? I just spend 30 turns and zillion of resources building fighters without engines

Yes, indeed it is a story worth immortalising. I just hope Senator (or somebody else) will do a better job with this game.

Damn, I still can not stop myself giggling.
Such an advertisement to my ship design skills...
300 fighters with no engines... Our Last hope for survival..

Sorry, I am going hysterical..

Thankfully, I posted savegames (<45) before I did it.

I am going to down load your Centurion save game, now and play it... Thanks

The new Psychic Intels update is posted if you want to add it to your game. It is a little easier to slam the AI now with intel

Oleg, what is the name of the ship set from your AIC race folder that the Pandoran Alliaince uses?

By renameing my set, I will load the same one all the time

Here is some Back Ground on AICs Centurion Systems. For anyone interested in writing a Story Line.

The optimal System that the Centurians would create their Planet would be a Trinary System. This is do to the way their culture using the Solar energy for the day to day operations of their planets.

As the centuries go on, the suns start to loose there energy and die. Until there is no Sun at all but a few dense tiny masses and what is left of the system planet.

It has been noted that the decline in systems are gradual and the reports are that some Systems range form a Young 3 star Systems, Middle age Binary Systems, and very Ancient single star System thru to the very old Dead Centurion Systems. Indicating a powerful Solar Energy Extractors of some kind pulled mass amounts of energy from their stars to the point the Stars would implode softly one by one over the Centuries.

At some eons ago, the entire Centurion civilization was stricken by a plague. Origin unknown. Never in our time has a sighting of a Centarian being been reported.

However, it is said the Building blocks of Crystallurgy was formed from the Artifacts found that where left from the Centurians. Folklore has it, that Centurians Races are ancestors of the Crystalline.

It is also thought that the Plague that wanders our quadrant now might be a form of what has been the demise of the Centurians.

It is also reported that the Fazrahrian Race has a culture spore of this deadly plague and is searching for ways to mass-produce it.
