i had something like that with the altarians, they turned on me, i wiped out 3 of their 9 planets, and all their military. then went for peace and i scored 5 planets and everything else they had, but they wouldn't give me that last planet - why? because it had 4 PQ20+ planets, i wouldn't give it up either ;) that was on maso, small, abundant.
ohh now that sounds even better :)
i thought that event was random and yea it does get annoying...but i usually get that from the Altarians... but for some reason in previous games before 1.13 i never got a tech from espionage, but now with 1.13, i am thinking about running a game where i won't research at all because the last game i played i was stealing techs every few turns towards the end of the game (i don't use espionage at the beginning)

LLM, thats a bit straight to the point :notsure: Being a dog person myself, i don't see the point of killing a dog - unless ofc it is a lil' yappy dog that needs nothing but a bullet in the head. Just remember it isn't the dogs fault, its the OWNERS. The dog only does what it does because the owner is usually an incompatant idiot. (think of pets as a computer, its does what its told to do, if the operator fucks up its his fault not the computers) My wisdom for the
Hey check it out i'm a Commodore :D and guess what my rank is "69" ;) ~SDC~

Happy Birthday Steve, hope ya have fun and don't party too hard ;) btw, i think i only need 3 more games for commodore and by than i should be out of your grasp :D ~SDC~
hmm, well in the early game i usually have no military output and just buy the ships outright when needed, and than later in the game i build my ships and purchase my socials. just done it than and i only ever made 2 trade routes all game and never had to take my slider down from 100% spending and i had loads of cash to throw around. hint: forget about diplomacy when setting up your empire, waste of time if you ask me :) ~SDC~
hey steve guess what :) thats right past u now, but u got 4 days to overtake me whilst i am off, but if that enough time? :) ~SDC~
[quote]RB is not concerned.[/quote] heh, just wait 'til i have my week and a half holidays, i haven't really had time to play the game for the last 3 weeks, but in a week and a half i have a whole 2 weeks of pure GalCiv to pour some nice scores in to make another leap away :) ~SDC~
Evil Steve 90959 dracko81 89267 right on top of you Steve :) ~SDC~
can't remember if this was posted or what but after i wiped out the acreans in my last game and went to build starbases near to where they had theirs it wouldn't let me saying it was too close to another starbase, when there weren't any others around. i closed GC and loaded up the save and it worked, so only a minor bug, but when you have to exit and reload 4 times a game it can get annoying ;) ~SDC~
you have up to 18 starbases per sector - but that ofc is damn near impossible. the most i have gotten in 1 sector is 12, thats because of the resources, 3 resources in 1 sector meant i could build another 3. this is because when they went from 1.11 to 1.12, the change with the AI meant they couldn't build on the resource so they cut something and you can now build within the limit of a resource starbase. :D ~SDC~ [Message Edited]
In my experience - which i admit is limited - i rarely sell techs (except to the Alexians, they seem to be the only ones that are willing to pay) and usually keep all my techs to myself until the AI decides to trade me for them. e.g. Altarians offer dreadnaught tech for drones. if thats not what u call profitable i don't know what is, i only research as far as Battle Hammers for my ships, the AI does the rest for me. and you never really need all that much cash anyway, i think it might
no not really like BOTF, heres a quick runs down BOTF - Set ship types, system buildings for each race. - tech tree was very basic. - u could play as any race, and could play multiplayer games. - excellent use of espionage/sabotage/spying and counter-intelligence. - when you build in Sol it was distributed to all the planets. - real wormholes to make travel faster - i loved them ;) GalCiv - everyone has use of the same ships, and techs will
