RE: Which game do you enjoy

I'd take a serious look at the two Decisive Campaigns games. They are very good games.

RE: Multiplayer Account

<t> Thanks Tom. I don't understand why that would be since no other Slitherine game accessing a server (Battle Academy, Conflict of Heroes, Field of Glory for example)is limited in such a manner. The issue is that the account is not a forum only account. It is your membership account with Slitherine...

No response to this concern? Got it. Security isn't a concern I guess.

RE: Multiplayer Account

<t> Well I figured out the issue and frankly it's a non-starter for me. Basically your multiplayer lobby access does not accept special characters !@#$%^&*, so if you use those in your password like any reasonable person concerned with account security you cannot login. <br/> <br/> This really n...

RE: Multiplayer Account

OK. It's telling me my login name is not correct. It is, so let's just get that point out of the way. I checked on the Slitherine website and here and in both locations the serial is registered with my account. I'm failing to see why it's not connecting.

Multiplayer Account

So the game wants you to login with your Slitherine account information, but are the purchases made here linked with the Slitherine site?

I ask because I cannot log into the multiplayer section of the game.

RE: Energy to fuel converter

Dock to what? Are they cross loading the fuel and then refueling from what was cross loaded?

RE: Fleet Disbanding?

Yeah I ended up just putting them on manual, which is what I normally do but it just seemed easier in pre-warp to keep them on system defense automation.

RE: Pirates! Arrrgggg!

<t> Haha! Yeah I guess they could have been on the other moon. I'm not going to lie. I just abandoned the game. Not only were they in the same system, which is bad enough. They also wanted something like 500/month protection money. It made me sad.<br/> <br/> Thanks. I actually just replaced my old m...

RE: Fleet Disbanding?

Hmm...That may very well be the case. Early game I've been setting to auto because there isn't much more to think about than system defense. I'm not sure why the use of automate would cause fleets to break up.

RE: Fleet Disbanding?

<t> OK. Something is really going on with fleets. Now I'll assign ships to a fleet. Assign the home colony, defend/attack, and range. Everything looks good for awhile like maybe a minute at best and then the fleet is disbanded into individual ships.<br/> <br/> Is there a limit to the number of fleet...

Fleet Disbanding?

<t> I hadn't noticed this before today, but it seems every time I retrofit my fleet it disbands.<br/> <br/> It's not a major issue early game with just a few ships to reassign to a fleet, but later it really clutters things up especially if you have multiple fleets.<br/> <br/> Am I missing something...

Hard Sarge - MIA?

<t> I was reading through some older AAR's and one of the AAR writer's I always enjoyed reading was Hard Sarge. He has a simple and informative method of describing the action of a game. Anyway it got me to thinking I haven't seen anything new from him in a long, long time. Checked on his profile an...

I needed to replace my John Tiller's West Front disc and Matrix had the Campaign Series. It's been on every computer hard drive since joining.

RE: Distant Worlds: Shadows

<t> The game desperately needs a scalable UI. Something along the lines of a slider bar or a drop down and pick 125%, 150%, 200% increase to UI scale would be most excellent. I'm sure it's a programming nightmare, but it would increase the game's playablitiy and enjoyment immensely by making the tex...
