Re: Why game is so easy?
A "Q" about mods from a new SEIV Gold purchaser...I'm familiar with playing the 1.49 Version on PBW, but I never was in a modded game. Now being the proud owner of 1.84 Gold I notice most games to join are modded...My "Q" is do I have to have the mod installed on my Version to play in that particular game properly...or is the mod only needed for the game owner?

Almost all mods require the players to have the mod on their pc and be using them to be able to play your turn. There are a few exceptions, but very few. The FQM NON-dexule Version is one. The Deluxe FQM however does require you to have the mod. You used to be able to play a TDM game on PBW without the mod, but I am not sure about that anymore. Seems like the recent Versions you had to. But my memory isn't clear on that.

TDM has a modified Formations file, which it has had for years. You must use the TDM data files when playing a TDM PBW game, or you will get data errors.

Re: Why game is so easy?
If you're looking for a harder game, try Proportinos. I forget all of the circumstances now, but my first game I was getting my butt kicked by the third or fourth turn. I encountered an alien race, and they immediately turned hostile and was sending out fleets of ships while I was still trying to explore just the next system. I quit that game, but it was a learning experience.

I didn't know Proportions had a Spanish localization.

Re: Why game is so easy?
There are a few ways to make the game harder and that is not not take advantage of the AI.
Don't
Trade with it
Create Treatys higher than Trade and Reasearch
There are a few others but I have not played in a long time.
Do Play in Simultaneous mode. That is much harder.
