Re: What\'s Your Favorite Ship Type?

LC's are my workhorses. I use them for all of my support ships except SY's. For my main fighting ship I try to stay within 2 sizes of my opponent. I very rarely build Baseships or DN's. They take to...

Re: OFF TOPIC - The IOC sucks.

Capt,
If you think the INS is bad try going the other way.

I had to do some work in Canada. Very simple warranty repair of a pump. 4 days, 5 forms and $250.00 later I was able to reach the job...

Re: OFF TOPIC - The IOC sucks.

Baron,

I've seen a small portion of our country, mostly the seaports and chemical production areas. Lots of visits to Tx., La., Ala. and Miss. Grew up in Maryland and have seen quite a lot of...

Re: OFF TOPIC - The IOC sucks.

Capt.,
Toronto didn't get it because the US wants the 2012 games held in Baltimore/Washington. Unfortunately the political games overshadow the real games.

Luc,
You're right the US is not a...

Re: OFF TOPIC - The IOC sucks.

From a sports standpoint having China host the games is long overdue. The country contains about 1/6th of the worlds population. They are competitive in most events and dominate some. It's about time...

If you can't build them all at once remember to mothball the completed ones.

Re: NEVER over-employ allegiance subverters!

I've done what you describe. First shot was with allegience subverter then a chain reaction. The Cue never even got a turn. Captured 6 DN's that way. There can be a problem if you miss just once...

Re: AI performance with no fighters? (stock, TDM)

I would say if you fight tactically, turn them off or don't use them yourself. If you fight strategic battles it won't make much differance.

Re: Ack, help me

There is a double blank line before the research facility I. I think the file stops reading when it reaches this. Check the whole file for these, I add double blank lines all the time.

Re: AI performance with no fighters? (stock, TDM)

Fighters are definately not necessary to win. In most of my games I never even research them. They do have their uses. Many people swear by them, it depends on your style of play and type of game you...

Re: Bug in 1.41

Guess this would be a bug. How do you report it, send an e-mail to MM or will one of the beta testers do it?

Re: Bug in 1.41

Thanks MRH, guess it's not my game only. Did you notice this in any earlier Versions? I've always let the map generate after I click begin.

Re: Why the AI builds the Ships it does

On turn one they will design an attack ship. On turn 20 they will design a new attack ship. On turn 40 they will design a new attack ship. On turn 60 they will design a new attack ship. After that I...

Re: Advice, what would *you* do?

Anything else of value on it? If there were 1 or 2 additional items I'd analyze it. If not, and I going to research ship 5 soon, I'd save it to get ship 6.

Re: Why the AI builds the Ships it does

MB,
How long did you run your test? I noticed you have ship size restrictions in place for a certain number of turns. My observations are that most AI only build one type of ship in a high tech...

Re: AI without maintenance ?

Just reduce the base amount in the settings file. Then you don't have to mess with the aI as much.
