Default Re: Are Events Too Rare?

i dont know about them being to rare but could use more diversity and some positive ones.

I wish there were better events. that's all. o and events that are conditional. I'm really into conditionals. I'm also going to sleep.

Just remember that when it comes to catastophic events, a human player can deal with them better than the AI. Also, if events are evenly distributed, there are likely more AI's than humans, which is again, more benefit for you. Unless we do get some good events.

I remember the first time I turned on event frequency to high. It was the first time I beat the AI. I thought I was sooooo bad@$$, beating the Chrysonite -- I didn't notice they were losing population to plagues until they were gone.

Built my first sphereworld in that game -- lost it a few turns later to an anarchy group. Heh.
