Zephyr 72

For those of you who are fans of the old X-Com I just want to bring - Laser Squad nemesis - to your attention... it's a master piece by Julian & nick Gollop the creators of the original X-com and has a lot in common, check it out. www.lasersquadnemesis.com The 6 biggest game impressions ever ( for me :HOT: ) 1. Total annihilation 2. Masters of Orion 2 3. Laser squad ( Amiga) 4. Quake 2 ( Multi player) 5. Gal.civ. 6. Laser squad nemesis

Hmm ok, Thanks for the update. I look forward to see the TS in Alien use after the release Zephyr

I would love to hear what you guys playing the beta have to say about Terror Stars and the AI. 1. Do the AI Races build and use the Terror star frequently? 2. If yes do they use them wisely? 3. Have you ever got a vital star system destroyed by the AI? Waiting with great interest to hear your replies Zephyr

Looks great!!! Will there be different types of soldiers animated in the invasion screen? By that I mean will you be able to see if the troops are regular marines or space marines and can you tell the race by looking at the troops??? I for one would think that would be fantastic (thou I know that a lot of people don't care ;) )... Keep up the good work! Zephyr

Marioflag : yes it is possible... have some trade and good military. (I always play with "Tech Trade" off)

Thanks yay

To G.W. Swicord. Spies can close down the planetary defence, but they can't be used on Omega defence system and Orbital Defence... On other matters: I saw your post recently on my post about planetary defence and by what you wrote it seems like we have a somewhat similar playing style I guess (You said something about you liked to somewhat put a “Role-playing” effort into the game). By that I mean I feel like this: It is not important for me to win a game, the f

ok.

The Galactic Monument can't be build when you research Star Federation. The reason is that the Tech Requirement is: StarFederation When it should be: StarFed It seems that the Tech ID="Starfederation" has changed to ID="StarFed" Zephyr

Spies can't operate on a Orbital Defence Tile, so it is not possible to knock out all defence... Zephyr

I think I feel more like G.W. Swicord on this one... But my question was if the Planetary defence works or not? It seems like my soldering on planets with a Planetary Defence System gets no better at all. I mean if you use a valuable tile on Planetary defence where or how should I get an advantage? And can I view the difference??? I hope that someone can explain this to me.

I my recent game (Dark Avatar beta 2) I was forced to build a couple of planetary defence buildings to keep my planets, the problem was that it diden't seem to give me any bonuses at all when the enemy invaded my planets. Maybe I don't quite understand how they should work, but aren't they supposed to give me a bonus to soldiering during an enemy invasion of my planet? And shouldn’t I be able to see that bonus added to my Total Soldiering bonus in the ground battle screen? And shouldn’t

Tillykke med det!

I Think that Wheeloffire are onto something very interesting here! Maybe your spying should be tied/ restricted in someway to open trade routes and not a spy module? That would mean that you had to have your spies in place before making war on a race and the trade rout collapse. Just a thought

Sounds really interesting to give the spies some tool functions…

First of all, I really like the new things in DA-Beta. But I have a couple of things with the spy concept I think could be done better. Of course this is just my opinion what do you think? 1. Maybe make spying require a Technology just like trade so that you have to put resources into research to get the option of spying. 2. I think that the spy icon could be better. The face with a hat on is just too uninspiring I’d like something a little more futuristic? 3. Maybe ch

Ok thanks for the answer and to wheeeloffire : First of all this is just a mod question under the Modding thread... and 2 I think it could be fun (for my personal taste) to try and create some side issues to some of the buildings. My idea was to be able to create "Dead" planets with almost no population growth due to Heavy Industry or special Super Projects. This could be a project turning a pla

Is it possible to mod a building witch increase the population growth on a planet? I know it is possible to give your total civilization a bonus in Population growth but I'm only looking to increase it on one planet like a special super project Also if it is possible it could be used to assignee some buildings with a negative Pop. Growth factor to simulate the problems of pollution. An industrial Capital could be modded to bring a -20% Pop. Growth Best Regards

It sounds cool. I really love the game and the new ideas put into it. And I don't agree that the tweaks to the game that render "Old" good tactics less efficient will make the game more boring just different in a better way!

What a shame I really liked the feature... But Thanks for the answer Ashbery76. It really maked me feel as a world leader in Galciv I

1. I can't figure out how to use the destabilization effect (in the manuals it says there should be a slider bar for this purpose) Of course it can be that the espionage slider bar and the destabilization effect is melted together as one slider bar! 2. Were do I adjust the planetary propaganda??? ( I can't find the slider bar) Any help will be greatly appreciated <img src="smiles/BigSmile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmi
