<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: LoBaron<br/> <br/> DW is a work of art. No doubt.

Thanks for doing this -- look forward to reading it. I prefer written AARs to video [8D].

EDIT: What's grogheads?

Great job as usual Bingeling. I've been playing since Legends, and always enjoy your AARs. [&o]

I frequent two general-interest gaming forums where a lot of people are trying DW for the first time. I will point them toward this AAR.

Congratulations on all this. Very exciting news.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Bingeling<br/> <br/> You need the mod, of course. As long as you install and enable that one, you should load your game just fine. <e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE> <br/> Thanks Bing.

<t> I'm not sure my question in the OP was clear.<br/> <br/> I do know where the savegame folder is, and moving it to the new machine is no problem. The question is: this game is modded with Extended Races and my own further changes. Beyond the savegame folder, is there anything else I need to port ...

<t> I have a new laptop and have DW-Shadows fully installed on it now. I have been playing DW on my old laptop, using Extended Races mod, and then further modded by myself to include some specific leaders of my own creation. <br/> <br/> To play this savegame, I obviously need to move the savegame fo...

<t> Thank you Canute.<br/> <br/> So this answer leads me -- with clarity -- back to my earlier situation. <br/> <br/> As a pirate, I control a particular colony, and discover that another pirate already has a secret pirate base there. The only way to destroy the base is to land troops, but as I don'...

All right, stupid question #3. From where to player-pirates get troops? Colonies they control? Their own space port?

Thanks Bing.

Another question: I just I had taken control of an indie colony and discovered a secret pirate base of my enemy pirate faction. How do I destroy it? Just hit scrap?

Thank you gentlemen. You confirmed what I had been thinking... that you have to search, the pirate's home is not something that immediately shows up in the diplo screen or on the map.

Playing as a pirate, there's another pirate faction in my cluster. How do I locate its space port? The diplo screen gives the general area, but I can't locate the base, which I intend to take out. What am I missing?

Is this the setting to which you refer?

CharacterRandomAppearanceChanceLeader ;1.0

So setting this to zero (before starting game ) would minimize the chance for a coup?

Hey, welcome (back). Thanks for using 'myriad' correctly [:D], all too rare nowadays. I'm fortunate, my wife doesn't often look at the Amex bill [;)].

I am tempted by KSP but I think I'll be terrible at controlling ships. Is that part difficult to get the hang of?

Would anyone be interested in a Pre-Warp Empire AAR like this one?

I would also be interested. I just finished this series of 4 and they were a great help. I even took notes [&o].

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Fenrisfil<br/> <br/> I think if you set Humans to "Can be Normal Empire = No", then that may stop them appearing as independent races (you can still play them as long as they are "playable = yes").

<t> Is it possible to be the only humans in the universe? <br/> <br/> I know I can limit the other starting empires to non-human races.<br/> I know I can prevent independents from becoming empires.<br/> But it seems that the independent races are chosen from the pool of available races, thus it is p...
