Sorry, you misunderstood me. What I meant was that was that you get less points by relying on the AI to trade tech with you than when you build enough research infrastructure to do it yourself. Ahh. Well then. Correct indeed.
Umm you would lose both. Even if you win the invasion you will lose the ship. The difference is the amount of population you leave on the planet. More troops = more pop remaining = quicker estabilishment of the tax base.
(unfortunately this results in a lower score than researching them yourself) From what I have seen this is not true. Research score is based on research production not total amount of techs researched. There appears to be no penality score wise for tech trading.
Consider joining an empire as well. While all of us here will be open to helping you an empire will help increase the fun even if you don't post your games to the meta.
You don't have to keep up with the AI or even exceed them. Grab a decent amount of planets in the rush and the rest will fall into place. Put taxes to a point where you have 70% approval. Spending to 100%. Research to 75, Social to 25. Research to impulse drive. Design a colony using impule and begin rush buying them. While you are doing this set your flagship to auto survey. The bc anomolies will help keep you going and the colonies you are lifting off homeworld will help keep morale up
Outfreakingstanding!
I thought it was in 1.31 but it certianly is in 1.4.
Arr matey that I be. Seriously though. I like the pirate ideas. One of my fav games was/is 1602 and 1503. Great pirate stuff in those games. But alas, this is GC II. A great game in its own right. But here is hoping that Pirates and Minors can one day rise up against the masses. Heck I might even play a campaign like that.
probably just get shuffled into common topics.
End of an Empire.
Good read.
I post through SDC all the time and never get the little icon... how'd you do that? and new SB images posted in the Embassy Halls.
perhaps requiring some new tech or new type of ship to accomplish this. Fleet tugs with will be was engines.
OK, first off, don't just seek out high-quality planets. Colonise everything you come across. Agreesive colonisation is a good tactic Hate to disagree so early in this threads life. Agressive colonization is a must but not all planets need to be taken. If you leave a few low PQ planets laying about for the AI you will eventually flip them and
Speed is being addressed. The other have been talked about in the Yor super ability thread if you would like to see.
You get the same advantage invading a 6 billion pop planet with 1 billion troops as you do if you invade it with 40 billion troops. Only thing is that with the latter you are assured victory.
Its in the shipyard. Bottom of the screen. Says 'delete'.
Marcathonas I hear the Empire of Standards calling your name. Be a good lad and run along now.
Choose Neutral for the bonus and eventually kill every body else.

point well taken.
I wasn't aware I brought the topic back from death, forgive me:) Thats why I only sighed. There are some topics around here that are very touchy. this is one of them. "carrier" or "multiplayer." are two
