I do love the music in this game--but I'm sure it will get tiring after my next 800 hours of gameplay.

It would be neat if we could pop in a CD and have the game play those tracks instead of the default ones. It would be cool to have Holst's The Planets playing while I assimilate the universe!

Gee, I guess the poll and the original post don't exactly have a lot in common...sorry!

So, in keeping with the idea of changing subjects constantly...

One thing in MOO2 would have been nice here: colony build order templates.

Once your resource planets begin to get too spread out, it makes sense to build colonies in the center of each cluster of resource planets, so you can maximize your trade routes. The increase in trade route revenue alone will help to pay off the colony costs pretty quickly.

So...I find I build a lot of these...by the time I'm late in the anti-matter age, I tend to have 3-6 colonies in 50-star galaxies. It would be nice to build a template of orders that could be automagically applied to all new colonies, so that you don't have to go through the same routine every time (build shields, build weapons, build mining, etc.) MOO2 let you do this--but in that game, it HAD to!

Anybody else think this would be a nice addition?
