- need to be able to see which of my ships lose HP after battle and also when docked. right now i have to click every ship and hit detail to see. its tedious -need to be able to shuffle planete production queue easier. if i build something now and its the fifteenth in line, its tedium dragging it to the top through multiple scrolls - an alert when we switch Ages - after my ships get ganked a report would be

While Ive moved on from galciv2 to endless space (time for something different), galciv 2 imo is the better game. More things to do with diplomacy and bases and whatnot. every race feels very different. Go ahead and get the game and play a few years, it truly is one of the best 4x games out there today.
community is going strong? this place is a ghost town man. is there a place people are congregating to play besides through the game/custom? If so hook me up because starting a game there is like *insert appropriate analogy*
sigh, i simply cannot grab more than 5 planets before i start getting attacked by one of my neighbors, which then ties up my fleet.
darvin i never even thoiught of that, ive been staying and cleaning out the militia and , now i see, taking my sweet ass time. using your strat should net me more than the 5 worlds ive been getting. will try it next game
ah, and my force consists of my original colony cap, a few enforcers, 6 carriers, and the rest assailants. are there some key techs i need to get to make this work better?
ok so i tried a new game. the starbase on one side worked - the ai was too pansy to even touch me. left me to wollop the other side....which i couldnt. Even when he broke his fleet on my defenses, leaving himself open to counterattack, I couldnt break his planet! My 4 planets just wasnt providing the income i needed to really bring a bigger force to bear (huge map, 8 opponents, 10credits, 2crystals/metal). And i couldnt imrpove my income since I couldnt break his force
ok i will try a starbase
So my unfair games as the vasari start like this : i quick expand 4-5 colonies, meet two neighbors, and then I have two fronts and the game goes down into a defensive spiral. they cant break me, and i cant break them. however, if i only had one front this would allow me to steamroll an enemy, double my planets, and clinch the game for me. How do you guys handle this particular stalemate?
so im a bit of a nublet. started with the advent because i liked the voiceovers. worked my way up to hard random ai, and couldnt win. id throw huge fleets at the AI only to be beaten back by his fleet and a starbase, every time. so, thought outside the box and tried vasari....steamrolled two hard games in a row. you just build those assailants and you never quite lose your momentum. your neighbor falls early, and the rest of the game just f
is this possible? i dont like the vasari...yellilng at me all game. id much rather listen to the hot advent.
thankyou zombie. the problem turned out to be i did not realize you needed an 11.5 relationship. holy balls!
Is there a section/process here for this? Im a beginner and would like to upload one so i can get taught here.
so if the computer doesnt research any diplo, then i cant form pacts with them?
Under manage pacts it says "this player has to propose this to you". /boggle
new player here . ive played a few games . teched some diplo but cuoldnt actually ask the computer players to actually enter into anything with me. How do i do this?
id have to say i believe two helms on sedna is almost required. her strength, in my humble opinion, is when shes SPAMMING heal and pounce. when she stops spamming, shes left with her weaksauce AA and shes just an aura at that point.
amulet is awesome when youre using an early weak dg (oak) on a big map (zikurat). u spend the first 7 levels porting around and capping flags for exp, then u rush onto the scene all leveled and shit and port pen sniping. frees up a consumable so u can run around with caps/pots/sigils instead of having to decide which youre going to leave out. just a dif flavor from botf (its a shame how overwhelmingly better botf is in almost every situation, le sigh).
DG is unfortunately dead. Im hoping someone will take the broken pieces, release a second one with much better connectivity and (insert all the probs here) and make something legendary. It is literally one of my favorite pvp games ive ever played. Without its broken aspects it so far outshines the other games in the genre its just crazy to know its a ghost town.
ive always found with oak, that if you dont buff his minions through morale or some gloves, they are just cannon fodder. I dont see how this build is superior to pure assassin or pure minon because of these two points. However Ill do this once in awhile just because i love seeing so many spirits. thanks kestrel for posting another flavor of oak. He has many!
ah, the oak minion build. so much fun in the right circumstances. as mentioned above, vs teams without aoe you simply rock their face. once they have aoe, which comes in the form of tb, ub, qot,reg...not so effective. im a oak player, ill go m inion when im against a team who doesnt have these DGs. it livens things up a bit from your typical hoss assassin oak build. those minions do hella dmg once y
ok i withdraw my app for t1. i was just so thoroughly dominated by a team who arent even on the list (oh, and my teammates were very competent. oh, i was also erubus who i think is slightly op) that i think i need to take a week off for some rape counseling. GJ awuffleablehedgie , nomilaric, and dundoon. <
something quick and easy that would be badass. giving us different skins unlockable by achievements. for example, unlocking panther sedna ( all black), You could even go a step further if you chose, and customize the skin. IE panther sedna does a little bit more pounce dmg, but less heal etc. anywho thanks for reading Lethstang

wait lifekatana your post is ambiguous. are you saying you cant be beaten while u play ub, or u cant be beaten when u play sedna/oak. nvm i reread it. yes i agree with u , players of equal skill the ooze beast will win in a 1v1 brawl to the death. in fact i believe i posted a month or two ago something like "plz tell me how i can beat an ooze ub with my erubus qq" since i was getting stomped in pantheon (g vs a). so touche
