[quote] Shut up you biased buffoon. Another messageboard bully....you guys wont stop will ya? If you take a close look then you will notice that every so-called "harassing and unnecessarily antagonistic" statement I've ever made was in response to another's "harassing and unnecessarily antagonistic" statement. Do I see YOU saying anything to them? Of course not, because you are biased. There is nothing wrong with me being "harassing and unnecessarily antagonistic"

Kruelgor, You have demonstrated a pattern of harassing, unnecessarily antagonistic behavior in your posts. I feel that the tone and delivery of an atypically large volume your posts is designed solely to prompt harsh defensive responses from people, which you then respond to in kind. I don't appreciate your demonstrated trend of consistently degrading the quality of interactions on this forum, like you have over the last several weeks. I don't believe that I'm alone in this o

Thanks for the responses. From the sound of it, this isn't a very widespread problem. It's strange though because it happened to me two games in a row. I guess I'll try to recreate the problem and see if I can't FRAPS it happening or something. :( *shakes fist at the barren, uncaring sky in impotent rage*

Reply to Auto-fleet causing problems in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Aye, I did this several times. I box-selected ships jumping into the new system's star and his "S" to cancel their orders, but of course some got through. What I'm commenting on is that even AFTER I changed the rally point, and manually stopped all currently produced ships' orders, the ships that were subsequently produced *still* would try and go into the enemy system. I'm pretty comfortable with rally point usage -- new ships receive the currently assigned factory rally point and go

Auto-fleet causing problems in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

In a game today, I was playing against a few computer opponents and during the fight with one of their larger fleets, I set my ship production worlds to rally to the enemy system that the fight was taking place in. A few minutes later, I pulled back to the system's star, which was one jump away from the hostile fleet and the location that my reinforcements were jumping in to. I changed my production planets' rally points to the star instead of the hostile system they were first set to.

Why is this game good? Well first of all, it's not, if you don't like space the conquest strategy genre......... I mean if you don't, then that's pretty much that. :P If you *DO*, then Sins presents you with the unique opportunity to satiate your interstellar meglomania on as big a scale as you want, without being ruined by a clumsy UI, poor tech trees, popcorn-stamina ships, or low fleet caps (I'm looking at you, Hegemonia). For those of us who sat on the edge of our seats fo

Reply to Ground Assualt in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

This is a really sweet idea, but I have to agree with Kruelgor's point about it mucking with game balance a bit. If it were a straight "drop and win" scenario that was time effective, then it would break game balance. Perhaps if troops were treated more as a sort of "planetary poison" that would gradually reduce population and limit production / resource output the idea could be balanced. In any case, if bombardment was kept as the "fast" option for taking a planet, and invasion was r
