<br/>
<br/>
about the steam roller effect....what about this: the larger your empire is, the more corruption you experience. <br/>
<br/>
In other words....you recieve no corruption until you take over half of the planets. But, once you go over the half ...

well....i went ahead and took the plunge and bought it....downloading now....

thanks....

I had read through that thread, but didn't really see anything on my main question.....how the conquest mode played. I am still up in the air about this one, though. It sounds great....but still....just not 100% sold.....

oh, come on, now.....150+ hits, and no one has an answer to my questions??

<t> I am just a mouse-click away from buying this....BUT....<br/>
<br/>
I need to know a few things:<br/>
<br/>
1. What is the main gameplay like? the conquest game mode? Is it just a series of missions....or is it placed on a map of the galaxy? Are there two modes for that game mode (combat ...

Ok, this game is simply overwhelming me....

Now, how do you guys decide where to attack, what to attack, how to attack...

Really, just how do you guys decide WHERE to attack??

Hey, you all...i know that many of you have books and books and books about the War in the Pacific....

So, what books are really good? Are there any real good ones that cover the battles and ships/planes in depth?

Thanks

thanks guys...will do...but first, i have to go to bed....work 3rd shift, and work tonight....but will get it started when i wake up later....

Can't wait to get this game started...

<t> Ok, I am about ready to start a game. <br/>
<br/>
Now, I know this may be stupid, but this is my first real wargame I have played (I played some of a pc wargame before, called Rising Sun from a few years ago). <br/>
<br/>
I have just spent the last 2 days going through the manual, skimming ...

Well, after being on the fence for a week about whether to get this or not....i decided to go on and shell out the 70 bucks....wow....expensive....but, i think i will enjoy it!!

thanks guys...you have kept me to keeping this game

are starting skills "random"?

<t>ok, thanks guys....<br/>
<br/>
Now, another question: <br/>
<br/>
In the HQ section, when you create a Jock, and you are in the screen with all the skills...what do the colors mean? (red, blue, green)....also, why can I only upgrade some, and not all of them? <br/>
<br/>
Also, with the Attributes ...

thanks

<t>i just bought this game 2 or 3 days ago....and to be honest, i am about to give up in frustration. I have played through the tutorial twice now, but still cannot figure out how the turn sequence goes...especially once the fighting starts.<br/>
