Would saving them from Genocide be a factor to a life long ally?

No really, I cannot turn. http://i.imgur.com/qByA1F1.jpg Im smack against a planet and I cannot turn Even smaller ships cannot just sit and spin. I've tried putting my mouse directly over the ships and they either fly straight ahead or turn 5 degrees turn going forward? I have a feeling this is an i...

Mines would work in space, but they have to be directional. More like a shotgun and not a wide explosive. There are also other types of mines. EMP ECM Magnetic When most people think of a mine they think of http://s.hswstatic.com/gif/landmine-un.jpg or http://www.bluebird-electric.net/submarines/sub...

I hear you, yet I'm still at odds with stock pile if I have 10 ships at turn 100 each ship costs 1000 the planet can stock pile at 100 per turn The planet can build at 100 units per turn too (I never checked to see if stockpile and building units are equal) if at turn 100 I choose to attack but fear...

When having Colony ship leave System A, I tried to get ships from System B to System A The graphic of the Colony ship hovers almost over System A and it would not let me select the ships from System B to go to System A Ships from System B could go anywhere else. I could still click on System A (with...

I'm really enjoying this game. If you need help for item techno babble, I'll give it a whirl. Ok on to the refit screen. Colors are something, at least, I need. like this: http://i.imgur.com/gUIrGo1.jpg But this is better http://i.imgur.com/rjkZy2H.jpg This is better-er http://i.imgur.com/7o8DeMw.jp...

I like the light-hearted feel of what I've seen so far, which is a nod to the first game (the Psilons in particular are adorable). But I did cringe at the Mrrshan leader's "cat on a hot tin roof" quip. Humorous dialogue is fine, but English idioms and American pop-culture references total...

One aspect in the 4x games was the race interaction when the rubber hit the road. I never liked the Moo2 diplomacy that would play out, every time, in this order Alliance with race A: Scenario 1 Race A asked you to go to war with Race B You choose to war with Race B Race A then made peace with Race ...

I'm already getting a Space Quest feel from the game with the Mrrshan having every human schtick in their conversations. I just hope it's there as a promo.

But so far, anything is better than Moo3.

I've just started and found the basic elements to be well worth the trial and error. Many aesthetic elements tale time to get used to: windowed screens as opposed to a new window when selecting other options. I'm going to pull from my mental archive when I found the way a planet can be shunted into ...
