Seriously, I have not had this much fun with a pacific war game since the old PTO on SNES! I still have a full war going on (the one in my AAR) as the US and Japan is putting up a fight! I realized I am not able to walk all over them and ...

there was a thread about the DW soundtrack a while back and it was assumed that most of the music used in DW is (in my words) kind of like a sort of 'clipart' they can use.... (clipsound? i dont know )

but in essence it's not exclusive to DW

more for modding

Any one else notice just how random this seems to be? Not so much random, but the AI instead of expanding outwards will send a colony ship halfway across the map to take a planet in your territory...or for one with a group of alien population ...

I was hooked on Distant Worlds in the same way that a common street whore is hooked on crack.

ORIGINAL: Xkill i'm saying THE PATCH not just making a revision of what we say but make an entire revision of the entire game!!!

of the entire game!!!

more questions than answers in this thread it seems

me i think they don't really do anything really useful against the AI, but I would really like to know if the AI actually does something useful with them

for troops i build transports and leave them on auto. they fill up with troops on their own and then idle away until i have a need for them. then it's just a matter of gathering them together

Actually the leader idea is a good one. It would give a deeper level of immersion and investment for people with their empires. Now how easy is it to implement and how extensive can it be done?

yes leaders would be very ...

still wondering about the original question though, do you get anything back when scrapping your ships at a shipyard? or is that just wasting dockspace?

First, let me say these look like great changes. <br/>

If all the variables in the ...

what...

<t> #1 should of always been like this. <br/>
#3 meaning it is capped up to the components tech level and not any further gain? ie wont learn ultra dense armor from a ship with only enhanced armor<br/>
#2-4 pretty much the same i guess, and it is good<br/>
<br/>
get a ship with advanced tech ...

still nothing for more modding?

I turn them off completely... I find that they always have smaller ships if you set them to low.

<t> government for forced expansion, anything that lowers war weariness. or if you are lucky and find the secret government in exploration, switch to that. i like military dictatorship. democracy isn't going to work for bombarding planets and doing war<br/>
