What's it under in the tech tree?
I checked every tech I had available and nothing was called "ship boarding".
Strange.

I just started my first play through.
I looked....for an hour to find assault pods so I could invade....only to find out the random tech had removed it.
Luckily i just found a 'friend' who was willing to provide the data free of charge.

Not fully understanding random tech and being my first place ...

Diplomacy screen is blank where there used to be a summary. Anyone else getting this with the beta?

I had to add the entire DW folder (which existed as i had to install then uninstall then re-install) as an exception prior to installing using Kaspersky.

<t> Just wondering if his is just me;<br/>
- when I load up the game ( click play DW using the launcher) the game must take 3 minutes to actually start up. I see the launcher screen but it just takes ages. <br/>

- when I load a saved game it takes another 2 minutes. <br/>

Thanks in advance.

Needs the word version too from the other post.

<t> I think i just cracked it, I added the folder which I'm installing DWU as an exclusion area, seems to be working so far. <br/>
