The goodies don't get anything, besides easier diplomatic relationships. Certainly not points.

Sirian, I'm sorry, but the event is not broken. It is fair and important, and you're just waining. A bit blunt, maybe, but still very true. As was stated before, the fundies are a key random event that can change the entire game. It is SUPPOSDED to turn entire empires upsides down. Yes, it will sometime turn an entire AI empire to the fundies - which is GOOD. This is a good idea, and it is executed well. Just like morality shifts can ruin your entire day. The fact is that the fundies ar

Reply to My concern of a pay for expansion pack... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Whatever happens, I think Stardock showed amazing support for their product. It is stable and diverse. I don't think anyone of us has any right to expect stardock to support the original gal-civ after the paying expansion. I suspect they still will in some way, because they are just that nice, but honestly, I didn't see any other company support a game for so long, shy of MMRPG's and their ilk. About the danger of splintering - well, why should it splinter? Everyone should just buy the

Admin privleges can be... transfered. Under duress. Just a thought, you know. Which reminds me, I got a lovely recipe for an iron paw, if you're interested. Also, everyone must thank Wombat for his assistance. Now I know how to upload an avatar to my profile, and you can all tremble in fear from my new, and uber-scary, avatar. Surrender earthlings!

The joke is partially on you. If you attempt to play on Maso or another high difficulty level, trade is a MAJOR source of income. In fact, being a good trade partner is probably your only way to have any fighting chance against the AI that otherwise will be able to make your life very difficult. In addition, without trade the AI is likely to turn on you quickly. Trade is the main diplomatic helper, and without it a lot of AI's will declare war on you, especially when you'll start creepi

You know, Wombat, I must just have to write a story that tells how I forced you to choose the delta force icon. Wouldn't it be less painful to just go with my vote? [evil grin]

Reply to Special Forces OpCentre in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Some pride, Obi Wan, it's just delta force. It's not even a really good unit. It's just well known.

Reply to Special Forces OpCentre in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Yes, the delta force is certainly adquete. Not a truly elite team, but I can respect the symbol enough, I guess.

Reply to Special Forces OpCentre in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I prefer the delta force icon too. BTW, Israel doesn't have sergeant stripes the same way too. Check it out: http://www.dolphin.org.il/ranks/drSamal.jpg [Message Edited]

Reply to European Empire Update in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Greetings all. I should inform you that last night a truck full with sherbert, sherri and ice cream pulled in front of my mansion, a bribe from the special forces. It seems Koala wants me to stop chasing him. Since I can't say no to ice cream, I have decided to take a stroll. Besides, in all the empire hoping the EA didn't lose one member - so I thought I'll start a tradition, or at least balance things up a bit :-) So, I'll be taking a trip. Maybe I'll be back, maybe I won't,

The tales of the agent - part 6 Or - how I finally became one of the gang A powerful blast shook the Special Forces regular pub. Quake after quake hit the compound, anti-matter explosions rocking the members inside. Wombat even spilled his drinks. "What in darnation is going on?!" He bellowed, as the agent entered. "It's him! Battle stations!" "There is no need to get agitated, my dear wombat", answered the agent. "I come in peace. And anti-matter missi

Like me said, me like delta force icon. Me do not want to humor Wombat. Me prefer to stuff Wombat with koala parts. Arrr... Me go away now until stupid speak goes away too. Me come back smart, or be as smart as before, which not be much.

The tales of the agent - part five The pondering of Harel - or why Koala is a very strange animal indeed The agent stood for a while in the darkness of the room, eyeing Koala with interest. It was quite puzzling. The strange animal was sitting there, eating his choclate bar, and quite enjoying it. He should - is was milk mixed with hazlenut, a really good treat. "You seem pleased" the agent said, and watched Koala jump three feet into the air. "What are
