Default Re: Final History List - See if the new game is worth it....

I got a question about the manual I forgot to ask.... How much will it weigh?

I don't want my family tossing out the package for SE4 Gold thinking it's a phone book! lol

Richard tks for the update, also 1 question, will the AI now invade planets in original game or still only in certain mods??

Puke: whats wrong with big breasted space vixens wanting to suck the blood from your crews, there are worse ways to go.,

thats not a bad idea, Mac. If you could mothball a ship as a random event, you could simulate that: "The crew of [vehicle name] was bled dry by well-endowed vamperic space-vixens, the ship is adrift and inoperable"

of course, an event that asigns x damage to crew compartments might be better, as the space vixens would have an awfully hard time sucking the blood out of a master computer. it sure would be funny to watch them try, though.

well, those MCs use more organics that a lifesupport/crewquarters pair, so there must be something to nibble on . Maybe Zombies would be a better event, they'd even eat the organic bits of the MC's "braaaiiins".

hmmmmm, possible new races to be added, Big Breasted Space Vixens that are a vampire race and Zombies that eat everyone in site but prefer MC's. What a tech tree these 2 races could have, let alone their weapons, oh boy oh boy, bring on the vixens!!!!!! what a fight to the finish

just some ideas mac

jimbob55 ,
You are too late, SE III, (and related issues), cost me my marriage alwready. I think the patch would be related to a "cure" for ADD.

STILL no save function in simultaneous games?!?! 10 minutes ago my computer froze JUST before I finished giving orders to 193 ships, 45 construction bases, 15 new planets, the resource conVersion plant, the intel department, designed 2 new ships, dealt with the Messages, updated notes for 3 systems and the strategies!!!!

Hi,
what about some missing abilities?
-palace
-drop troops
Another thing: can't they add some additional default ship pictures for modders-use to all races?
Would be great to find those things.

ZA, is that mod in the mod section here? i must have confused the boarding tentacles with something Kodos was talking about, but i would love to take a look at the mod.
