Re: managing empires
The time bug got me. I was in something like 11 games at once, now I am in one, and that too is pressing me right now.

Re: managing empires
I am slowly getting in more games. Although I think I'm at my limit right now. I'm in 4 games. One is going to start tomorrow evening. The other 3 are in progress now.
I usually spend about 10 minutes for a turn. I go through log files, check my research and build ques and then I just my empire lines, battle lines, etc. The max I've done for a PBW game is I think 30 minutes.

Re: managing empires
The most I've spent on a PBW game would be about 1.5 hours, but that was only because I had a 180 planet empire that was rioting. Building Police Troops is tedious.  |

The new multi add really helps make that less painful. Unfortunatly you can't do a muti-add of "one turns worth", but you can do a muti-add in blocks of 5. You can get close.

Re: managing empires
Nah... all the planets had widely varying build rates.  |

Re: managing empires
i keep whishing for multi-add in all my non-gold pbw games, it is such a good idea, better than drones but that's another topic.
However, this thread hasn't really answered my question, where is the thread about all those programs that could help you take "notes" on games?

Re: managing empires
Did you do a search for it? If I ever need to make notes, I just use text files. |
