In my view we need to work out what a reasonable time frame is for invaders to get troop ships to an attacked colony/outpost. You don't want to end up with a situation where its never worth invading because the defender can pull up stumps too quickly. It generally takes more resources to build an in...

I believe the issue is that starting xenophobes with concentration camps researched is now mostly pointless, as they can't actually use them till the point where other species can research it quickly. Noticed 2 minor issues looking at this: If I look at concentration camps under the unavailable tab ...

If this game starts after March, would you join as a full player?

Sure. I'll be free and keen to play by April. I just wouldn't like to hold up the game if others are ready to start.

I would play a no-diplomacy game iff i find a tag-team partner (someone who is willing to take over when i drop out because of life constraints). I wouldnt mind geoff being a neutral observer. I'm still deciding if I'll play. If I don't I'd be prepared to fill in for Ophiuchus, assuming I'm not awa...

Sorry, I should have said, this is unmodified 0.4.10.1, and the Temporal Anomaly still says 5 RP per pop. The population is now 1.12 and the full list of bonuses is: Abbadoni Research Focus +0.23 Special Temporal Anomaly +5.62 Algorithmic Elegance +0.06 Enclave of the Void +0.17 Abbadoni Bad Resear...

You could make negative influence a penalty to all meters. If you do it as a multiplier with an S curve and an inflection point at 0 influence you could get the % penalty at the asymtotes to roughly match the % of colonies needed to maintain equality. e.g. if you need 1 colony out of 4 to maintain ...

Cyan - swaq Blue - o01eg Green - Hyperant Magenta - Oberlus Yellow - Ophiuchus Burgundy - ThinkSome Orange - wobbly Full game graphs: fo14_production.png Hmm so I can't seem to get the actual graph to appear in the quote, so you'll actually have to go back to the original to look at it but I believ...

Looks like I've got a screen shot from o01eg losing his first planet. No active radar, my symbiotic ship is invisible, & no troop tech. The troop ship arrives next turn.

Huh so i didn't really have a chance against wobbly, being outpopulated, outproduced and outresearched all at once, even if the margin was small at times I had less production then you at turn 50 & was fighting on 2 sides at once and still ended up above everyone else. I think what did you in was a...

Congratulations! This came as a surprise as I was unaware it was a win condition. I doubt knowing would of made a difference though, my ships were moving forward as fast as they could and it was still another 300 turns to the tech victory.

Today is veterans day and we celebrate the continued existence of our 1st warship off the docks. Isn't she a beauty? This little beasty took our 1st planet, survived multiple skirmishes and is still with us today.

Well fought Hyperant. That was fun. You had me worried for parts of the fight as you had more force at various stages, particularly as you got those self-gravs down quicker then I expected. My eawax shipyard wasn't close (it's to the south of where your radar scout is) which made the timing awkward,...

So both Hyperant and Ophi left the game mostly through evac systems, which kept their troop numbers and gave x number of turns to grab as many planets as you can before they disappeared. So I'm wondering if this may be an ok-ish system for conceding if it can be automated? Planets keep their troop t...
