Who is the most powerfull cuvilization inspire you!

I think it is the Altarian,they may be are quiet and peacefull but if they are angry their fury is biggger than Drengin!
As I play with Altarians for me is easier to conquer the galaxy and all respect me from the begining to the end! :)

In my games the Snathi seem to take on the galaxy and win almost every time. Until they run into me that is.

Lol,Snathi...that is where evolution goes wrong.I both love and hate small evil fiends.They are funny but doesnt fit into the universe,Big rats in charge!

No game is quite the same that i have played before my cpu went wrong.It seems dominating faction is one that is lucky enough with habitable solar systems near.I have started to hate that colonization rush.That is why Dark Avatar sounds promising...

The Arceans, Altarians, and Torians always spread like the plague. The Drengin often do pretty good, and the Iconians and the Yor are overall average; but the Korx almost always get taken over early on, the Terrans always end up struggling, and the Drath and the Thalans might as well be minor races.

Funny thins is In every Game I have played, I have never once seen the Dregin last for more then half the game. Never!

The Altarians, And Torians seem to be the best. My worst enemies seems to end up being the Altarians though most the time. Usually because of the Leader Killed Pop up.

what galaxy are you guys playing? just curious coz in my games it is ALWAYS the drengin and Yor who are the real threats. everyone else is fodder for these two races so i keep a really close eye on both if i get a bad start i usually end up dying myself

In my last game the Drath were the thoughest enemy. And that was a surprise because in my other games they had rather small empires. The Drengin are always quite strong in my games.

It's nearly always the Drengin, Altarians and/or Torians that dominate things in my games. As soon as the game starts, friggin Torian colony ships scatter like someone turned on the lights in a room full of cockroaches.

The Yor do well at first about half the time, but eventually somebody creams them. Same with the Arceans and Korx. The rest of them might as well be Vegans.

It's always either the Thalans or Arceans if they start going to war early, or if the Terrans or Torians last to mid-game, they always conquer everything.

Eye do you try to declare a war on all 9 races on masochistic after 5 years i have 380 ships 360 atacks a that is the once way to understand,all die on one time some are even generous give me 5 or more planets for peace like Torians but for me is bigger pleasure to destroy them in the normal way like crushing their economy with military or increasing my influence to 100% or i destroy one aafter one nobody cant stop 300 ships!
All with the best defense and weaponary!

I wonder why it is that it's the same races that become troublesome in nearly every game, but it's different races for different people?

In my games, the Terrans hardly expand at all and always get clobbered. The Thalans get clobbered whether they expand or not. For other people, they are almost always the biggest threat.

It seems like the Torians are a pain in everybody's ass though.

I've had quite a few games recently where the arceans dominated. I don't think i've even seen the Thalains do much, i've even set them to incredible. Seems safest to set humans and them to the highest difficultly. It'll be awhile before i set the arceans above genius...

The toughest civ in my games is usually the Arceans or Altarians, occasionally Rorians or Drengi. When they're on top, the Arceans just rob everyone until they anger someone who won't give up their money, at which point the galaxy gangs up on them. I always thought of the Altarians as being unimportant because they rarely cause wars; if they're the toughest they just sit around looking cool. Then, in one of my games, the Altarians went over to the dark side... I'll never disrespect the magical talking monkeys again! The Drengin are slow to start, and usually end up cooked if they start near the Torians. Given breathing room, however, they become simply vicious. As for the Torians? Fast to expand, but sometimes they spread themselves too thin.

EDIT: Just had an idea. When saying who's the toughest, add what size galaxy you typically play on. I usually play on huge or gigantic. Perhaps in smaller galaxies, the "stupid" Thalan and Terran AIs at at their prime!

Custom as my own empire - "The Empire" from star wars or the Terrans

Typically, the Terrans in my games. In fact, all of my ship designs are Terran. I'm thinking about giving another race a try.
