[quote]Start building your cadre as early as possible. Set your slider at whatever your economy can handle, and forget it. Let them build up to ~20-30. As long as you have a healthy economy, you should barely notice that this is happening. When you get to this point, it's time to strike.[/quote] I think I'll try this! I have noticed its better to go with buku spies then to place a few here or a few there.
*I go for cultural victories when playing the Krynn* With the Krynn, I like to save a few spies (usually 3-4) early in the game and not place them anywhere. When I first start to build them I only put enough resources into it where the spy will take 50 or so turns to build. This way I didn't spend a lot of money per turn and by time the middle game comes around I have 3-4 waiting to be used. When I see a planet around that looks like it might 'flip' with a little help I fast build 2-3
[quote]No, but why wouldn't you want to install 1.92? It's full of crunchy goodness and is only like, 5mb. Mmm... Crunchy goodness...[/quote] I've tried it... crunchy goodness. mouse zoom...granite like crunchy goodness
[quote]Personally, screw the box, screw the CD, etc. Digital download works like a peach[/quote] I dont care about a box either. The only thing I would have like was a tech tree layout...even as a PDF download. That would be easier then having to view thwm in game.
[quote]It really doesn't work that way. Those pages are simply the results of database queries for posts by you; there's no "add this post to his list" setting. That sort of stuff would be the watchlist function, which hasn't yet been reimplemented since the forum overhaul.[/quote] Gotcha, thanks. Never hurts to ask.
[quote]I have mentioned before without any feedback about the simple solution of adding a negative morale bonus to each tech building.[/quote] No.

[quote]There's nothing UN official about this patch, it was released "early" in an unorthodox fashion as a goodwill gesture so to speak.[/quote] My bad. I didn't realize it was a Stardock patch.
[quote]Some of us happen to like our games to be single player, k thx.[/quote] I agree. You can just get up and stop or quit without ruining the game for people you are playing with. One of pet peeves has always been starting a multi-player game and then one or more humies quit. For some reason getting beat by a comp ticks me off more then getting bested by a humie.
Most of the stuff I post are just simple questions. Once I get an answer, I really don't need the thread anymore.
[quote]Nope. Digital download only. Or DD and a CD, or CD, but only from Stardock/TotalGaming. If you order a CD, it will most likely come packaged in a simple sleeve.[/quote] Yup...I just got my CD today. Simple paper sleeve....no manual or tech tree layout. boo!!!!!!!
boo. thanx.
Is there a way to delete 'my posts' or 'my replies'. I haven't found a way.
Can anyone help me put in an icon? I'm trying to put in a 50x50 pixel jpeg, but everytime I hit 'update' is tell me 'web page can't be found. What am I doing wrong?
[quote]No, but why wouldn't you want to install 1.92? It's full of crunchy goodness and is only like, 5mb. Mmm... Crunchy goodness...[/quote] 1.92 hasn't been out that long. I usually like to wait for a bit for some feedback first before downloading tweaks. Especially 'unofficial' ones. How its it anyway?
Geekdom....live it, love it, learn it!!!!
[quote]The new patch has made things much more agreeable.[/quote] Is this the 'official' patch or the 1.92 with the mouse zoom posted today. Gigolojones: Thanks for the help with installing custom ships! You seem to bee all over the forums today.
Has anyone ever made the Yamato from the cartoon 'Star Blazers'? I have being trying albiet unsuccessfully.

[quote]When you roll your mouse wheel to zoom in, it usually zooms in on the center of the screen. Zoom to mouse means that it zooms in centered on your cursor, instead. Once you've played a game where it works this way, you'll wonder how you ever did without it.[/quote] Is there a way to get this without having to install the whole 1.92?
Could someone help me get the ships I've downloaded from the SD library into the game. I've haven't been able to find how to do it. Im a loser noob.
Uranium: Dude, I'm annoyed at the tech bug too, but my blood pressure never went up because of it.
WHAT then CRINGE: I was plaing a 'good' custom race based on the Torians. There were 2 Major races left; Terran and Drengin. The terran and I were on the east side of the map. There was a large area of space in the middle and more star systems on the left. The Drengin controlled roughly half the systems on the map....and all to the west. The Terrans and I controlled the east where I had about 3/5 ths of the systems. I could have destroyed the Terrans but I was worried about the power of
