Still playing Shadows myself. This guide seems reasonably accurate aside from a bit of detail in the numbers during ship design.

Q: Does this guide work for use in DW: Universe?

I may get Distant Worlds Universe someday, for less than fifteen dollars, maybe.
I missed using my discount coupon, for my having purchased the four previous DW games (for full price totaling over a hundred dollars, I might add),
by about 1 month, maybe less... and on general principle I can not bring myself to pay sixty or fifty-five dollars for Universe when I have already bought most of what Universe is. grumpyface

Anyway,

Thanks again for writing this guide!




P.S.
For other efficiency neckbeards like myself you may want to add or add a link to some ship design component info,
as georgioz hints at on page two, post fourty four
(or click on georgioz profile and his first post RE Thanks)

This is terrific. Are you still in the market for update tips? A few small things have changed since you wrote it and as I am starting from scratch I am noticing them.

The end of 2021, still the best guide out there

Thank you man!

PS : I hope you'll do one for DW 2

Thx for the Guide

Best guide by far. Has helped me a lot.

Hopes for a similar DW2 guide are still up

haha, 2024



I am not playing DW2, because.... well..... I do not see much difference to DWU.


I was REALLY hoping for making in-empire politics (parties, decisions), a more expanded DWU, instead I got DWU in 3D with non-moving planets.

GREAT guide - thanks
