Questions on Designnames and Subjegation(sp)

If you (demand) a Subj treaty, they will be subjected to you. i.e. you will be the most powerful partner. If you accept their Subj treaty, you will break all other treaties and give portions of you income to him. I have only had an AI accept a Sub treaty once in a game IMO, It is much better to get them to surrender if allowed.

That many? I've found it easier to get the AI to surrender than accept a sub treaty. Which I can't really get.

"No we wont keep our own govt and navy but give you some money, we'd much rather totally surrender."

Thanks Slick and Parasite, I understand it now. I didn't get it the first time I read something on it.

Any help for first question?

I think your stuck with the designname file you pick at the start. So if you didn't pick one....

Well its something to learn for next time, and if thats your worst problem in your second game your doing a hell of alot better than I was

NNNNOOOOOOO!

I was afriad of that. I don't know how much better I am doing. It really isn't a second game. I started over in the middle and changed my priorities and reseach and started doing conter-intel. Got advice on shields and weapons. Shields helped a lot since I wasn't researching them at all. In the original try I used lots of armor. Then I met the mean grey crystal people with armor skipping weapons. My destroyers and light crusiers died fast. It went down hill fast from there. Another thing that didn't help is I didn't know about large mounts.

After I got the advice I redesigned my ships to have shields 1 and researched shields. Like I said doing good now in a 11 AI player high difficulty game.

Edited part on mounts and fixed a spelling mistake. There may be more.
