Mr. Nice guy or Bully

Post by Aloid »

I was scouting some dark nebula when I came across one of my friendliest races working on something that sounds like it would destroy everyone. Hint WAP…

I'm curious to see what my friends would do with such a device...

So the question is...

Do I act like Mr. Nice guy and keep my BFF happy with smiles and kind words

or

Do I act like a bully and kill them like a blood thirsty dog.


I’ll probably just sit back and watch the fireworks… since I have a saved game I can restart from… [;)]

What, they found a world destroyer? Those are mostly harmless. I shot one down in a dogfight a game or so ago. Apparently, the superlaser isn't capable of effectively tracking a target that is more agile than a planet. Then you just fly down that exhaust shaft and let loose, boom, bye-bye.

I came across this situation too and chose to destroy the construction ship.  Well, that pissed off half the galaxy and half of them declared war on me.  Ooops.  It was one little ship!  I wonder how long it takes to stop being notorious.

Awhile. Given how annoying the AI is and how difficult it is to get him to do anything, like taking his stupid construction ships AWAY from your STUFF, it's almost better to just accept the inevitabilty of total war against all.

If i where Aloid i would act as MR.Nice Guy, as far as they don't use it on any of my planets, they could destroy half of the galaxy.
