I had one surrender to me ... didn't even see it coming. I started a gigantic game with visions of entire star clusters a blaze with my foes, instead I was ostracized to a far corner with 3 small star systems and only 5 planets (none over 12 in rating) with the nearest star group far out of range. By the time I had enough life supported scouts to scan the nearby star group it turned out to be the home world of another race and every single planet was colonized and I was out of luck.

Can someone test a fleet of this fragile battle craft and report results of said test? It would be an interesting early game type of thing (like Chopping became in Civ4) I've tried a couple different strategies and it seems to work like this, IF you attack first and your ship is vastly more powerful, you win the battle.

Long story short, game crashed, Yor race settings all kinds of messed up. Is there anyway at all to reset them to their orginal values? (race abilities, ship type and color etc etc)

Okay, I played a simple game to get acquainted to the game, basic everything in a tiny universe with me playing the Yor and my single opponent the Terrans. Well I won the game and on metaverse it showed the possible cheat warning icon, so I was a bit miffed and thought I’d try a completely different kind of game type and created a normal game with the Yor and a gigantic galaxy to see what the large game is like. This time I changed the Leaders name a

Wow, that thing was beyond wacky. Attacking ship 100 attack in beams 50 defense in shields 100 hit points Defending ship 100 attack in missile 50 defense in shields 100 hit points It declares stalemate .... don't think so. Kind of glad I didn't know about it till now

Just be glad you are playing, some of us are trapped at work and would trade a great deal to be home and have a chance to save at least once

Under high scores on the metaverse you can open the galactic map which shows which empire is on top and all that, but my question is what’s up with the little radar thingy? If you click on the galactic map a pair of circles appears with a radarish sweeper. My question is what the heck is that thing, and does it have a purpose besides driving DT crazy.

In its current state it is somewhat flawed, but the true potential for EAW is through modding and TC's. Though other then this it is still a decent game. This makes me wonder, if a star wars game needs to modded or have a TC to start being fun ... why not grab GalCiv 2 and mod it to star wars, that way you start with a fun game and maybe make

I am still not clear if there is a difference between the pre-order bonus in-game content and the "buy it the day of" or "buy it a week later" in-game bonus content. Pre-order has additional physical content (fold out tech tree) but is the in-game content all the same? Put simply: how many in-game bonus content packages are there? <b

Frogboy: In this menu I really tried to get the feel of hopelessness, the desperation of life. That whole resistance is futile, all your base are belong to us feel. I think I pulled it off quite nicely. Umm, sir ... That's the windows desktop, the game hasn't been loaded yet .... Frogboy: Precisely.
