Re: happiness modifiers

Ah, I see you can't cancel a declaration of war like you can a partnership - but no you if I read the data files correctly there is no penalty for a Non Aggression.

Re: happiness modifiers

If a bloodthirsty race declares war and then switches to a none treaty and then declares war again against the same opponent do they get -100 bonus everytime?

Re: does religious *need* the talisman?

Everyone keeps talking about how powerful the Talisman is, but it has been a while since I've seen a religious player win in PBW - which tells me that it is really not all that unbalanced after all....

Re: PBW Server is down - and back up again

So I guess I won't refresh my browser every five minutes.

Although it seems like a huge coincidence that the server went down the same day a 400+ fleet of Geo's was blown up by a nebulae.

Re: 300 Ways To Tell If Your Addicted To SE IV (Updated)

218. You keep redoing your next turn while waiting for the PBW server to go back on line.

Re: "Gamey" tactics like "Rock, none" races

The only truly equitable situation would be for players to have to start with the same set up - sort of like Chess. But what fun is that?

Personally I think any strategy, tactic, or component that...

Re: "Gamey" tactics like "Rock, none" races

Actually I think Religious has become a disadvantage because every game I've played in the Last six month has had the religious player suffer a coalition against him.

My favorite use of a star destroyer is as a stop gap measure. Just park it at a system as a Last resort. You can use it ambush an opponent with an overwhelming fleet. It severe tactics, but it saved...
