Oooh, I don't remember that. Oh well.

Sorry, I couldn't see a topic like this anywhere. So anyway, should the focus of the game be on allowing the player to build many ships, or trying to restrict them to not building as many? I personally am all in favor of a smaller amount of ships, if only because it will make it a true accomplishmen...

Well, I think that before battle you should be presented with a screen where you can drag and drop your ships into whatever kind of formation you want, and give general orders, like assigning ships X Y and Z into task force 1, and A B and C into task force 2, etc. In in the battle you could have mor...

I don't really like the idea off factions, unless you mean alliances. Maybe a faction could be an "evolved" alliance?

Well, it's just the way it is. It could be said that Earth-like planets are all the same size too, then.........

I know I have a REALLY POS soundcard (it's a SoundBlaster Live! Value, basically the cheap version of a bad soundcard released in like, 1998), but it supports multi-channel (or whatever that is) sound, cause I run iTunes int he backround a lot when I play games........no offense, but your soundcard ...

This is kind of getting really off-topic here, so maybe we can keep discussing it here, if we need to: http://www.artclusta.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=261

Probably a bug, but it doesn't affect gameplay really (although it could be said "what gameplay, it's 0.1!!!")

You go girls! Err......guys!
