I actually kind of like that one, it totally changes my usual strategies in the game and forces me to think much longer term.

Meh...

So long as the limit is greater than 3, I'm fine.

I play as Yor, and I use defensive strategies that make use of their super ability that restricts other races ships speed to a max of 3. If this Mega event reduces speeds to 3 or less, I would have problems. It would at that point, nerf my super ability.

Actually i really like the super slow ships, it makes me totally rethink my strategy! Now invasion are well planned out, and are much more of an undertaking. I would hate to see it nerfed.

Argh!

In the words of Mr. Hagar:

I can't drive 55!


This one drove me nuts, just as I was about to mop up the Iconians and end the game.

I like it too. I was able to build a very strong economy and build up good fleets. Also allowed me to colonize much more strategically. I'm a big fan of mega events.

Never ending? That does change things a bit. I just got this event in my game(still on my first DA game). And 1 more turn to research Hyperwarp III! I was actually hoping for a mega event, as I was just past mid game and can see that I was going to win without any more trouble. I will still win, but with a little more trouble. I like the fact that the game can suddenly totally change. In DL, I was typically building 50+ speed transports by this point in the game.

I'm thinking that the extra jump off planets isn't worth it, except maybe some interceptors. It's probably a bug anyway, since it shows your ships movement points like 14/5. It'll just mean I can put cheaper engines on my ships. It's funny that the AI will still buy useless engine tech. Tech trading was always one of it's weaknesses, though.
