Re: OT: Election 2004

Nazi Germany is a good example of what happens when a country's leaders lie to start wars for political purposes and the citizens do nothing or go along. I think that's the real historical lesson in...

Re: It\'s time for a new Tournament...Ratings Bash I

Primitive's analysis of the game is spot on. I chose the quick knock out blow and Primitive was able to absorb it. My home systems were in the corner of the map and I realized that a long game would...

Re: OT - How would sc-fi ships do in battle against each other?
