Hi guys,

Great game,

somethings I would like:

1. At the end of the turn there should be a layer that presented all the terrain that was lost since the last turn.
This would be a way to bipass the show AI turn, and easily identify where there are incursions.

2. For the AI turns to be faster

<r> Perhaps what's really annoying people, is the lack of other activity in the forum, and that pricing, steam, kickstart threads represents the absolutely majority of posts. <br/>

No offense folks, but what is it about this game that makes everyone who stops by suddenly a business and marketing guru?

The game has great potential and could have much better funding and support if it was on Steam, and also priced more competitively. <br/>

Out of all the Moo3 successors, this is it. So much could be improved and it would become the ...

Well Kickstarter is being used for more than it is was originally intended I would say. I have seen publishers use it as a medium to gain massive advertising. It also allows them to say "look, the more of you invest now the better we will make ...

<t> I believe a DW project could be sucessfully launched as kickstarter project.<br/>
This could create a lot of awareness for this amazing game, and at the same time increasing the budget available for the project.<br/>
Which would hoppefully translate to a better game.<br/>

What are your ...

I don't really care in the long run what system is used, as long as something is added to make it harder to just colonize everything in sight beyond doing the research for the planet types and paying for the colony ship.<br/>
There should be ...

Much better performance with the new patch.

You simply should NOT be allowed to colonize in another Empire's territory unless you declare war, and military ships should not be allowed to cross the border of another empire when they are automated. The player should have to give a ...

Yes and no. Once a player colonizes a colony than the system takes his colors but anyone can colonize other colonies in the same system. Unfortunatelly, afaik, it's not like in MOO2 where each would get a color in that system and you could end ...

How does system ownership works?
Is it achieved only by making the first colony in a system?

<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Harmonious Hegemony<br/>

The way I see it you could send ships to colonize anywhere, its just that as they get farther from your empire's core and more into another empires sphere you stand an increasing chance (increasing with distance and time) of them ...
