Re: SEIV Gold and Satellites

Another fix to the current problem may be to create a mass of slow moving drones instead of satellites. Use these as satellites to defend the planet. Give them only one movement point, then they...

Re: New Race Preview (UFA) and other

I give a thumbs up to this set. Two thoughts when I see it: Starship Troopers and Cylons. I could use this set for a race based on either characteristics.

Re: Newbie Drone Questions

What is the word on satellite deployment in SEIV Gold? Has this issue been fixed? Will it ever be fixed? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Re: Fighter Groups

I have another question about fighters. I have experimented with using them in formations by themselves to protect warp points. Has anyone ever found this effective against humans? If so, which...

Re: Play by web guide

I agree with Geo. Once I started playing humans, I went back to playing the computer. I couldn't do it. Gave up about 50 turns into the game because the AI was so pathetic. The only real...

Re: Kuat Drive Yards updated

Ditto. Great site.

I really enjoyed the cards. Sent one to an enemy today on PBW that I had not seen in a while. I thought someone had beaten him to a pulp before I had gotten the chance. ...

Re: Best Planetary Defense: Discuss.

I agree with most of the Posts here. There are a lot of good suggestions. They emphasize the most important element of any plan against humans: be versatile.

Re: P&N Pirates: too weak?

I agree with Geo, Pirates should be weak. You don't play them to win. You play them to be pest. Traditionally, pirates have no national aspirations. They are a group of bandits bent on stealing...
