Default Re: What game to try next? Suggestions?

Well I breezed through the 2nd game and think I have the interface and some of the shortcuts all down, so my 3rd game is:

Mid-Life
Large Galaxy
High AI
Medium Tech Cost, no starting bonus for anyone.

I created one race each of Organic, Crystall, Temporal, Psychic to add into the mix. I am assuming it will take the ones I created and random generate the rest?

Since I havent had a good battle in the first 2 games (never saw anything bigger than a CL) and my own logistics have been the toughest enemy, I am looking forward to it.

Well should be fun, will report back. Not the best starting position.

One played against humans! PBW is the easiest way if going about this.

i think the best way to get a challenge out of the basic AI, is to go small quadrant, low AI, High difficulty, High bonus. in a small quadrant with a high bonus, you will have a hard time overcoming their production abilities and will have to resort to using tactics.
