Sorry I did not post this yesterday, but I thought I was still banned. Well folks the time has come to post the beta. It is not finished, but it is stable and playable. If you all wish to see it completed, then by all means play the mod, take notes and give feedback! :lol: There are two...

Murdoch you are quite correct about the retail release being a 50 dollar beer coaster, but with a lot of the fan made mods out there it has become quite enjoyable, if you like extreme micromanagement. Only reason I kept up on it was being a poor man with 3 kids to feed, I don't have a lot of...

What I find rather amusing is that Master of Orion Three also had a detailed ship creation feature, and that was one of the major points folks whined about in that it added uneeded micromanagement. Now folks are finding that feature 'fun'. :wink: My how times change. :D Not saying you in...

Silencer, check out my FO PnP DLs. If you folks need copies of those files to host on NMA, feel free to PM me and I will get them to you. :D http://wotg.stgfc.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=6 Cheers, Thorgrimm

And does this idiotic statement highlight the epitome of European Brainpower? Thorgrimm

Have you ever played the VIP mod for Vicky? It improves the game quite a bit, and gives a lot of new flavor events to the game. :) Cheers, Thorgrimm

Then Jebus, you should try Victoria: An Empire Under the Sun. By Paradox also. :) Cheers, Thorgrimm

Calc, That screenie does remind me of the base building in X-Com, might have to at least check it out. Thanks for the screenie. :D

Here you go bud. Its not much just some forums, but most folks are getting a kick out of it. :D World of the Gunny

Actually, I have been running my own site now. We have RP's going on there, and the Player's are having a ball, at least that is what they are telling me. :D The rules are coming along quite nicely. Cheers, Thorgrimm

Syphon, I had to comment, a Hydroponics facility uses extreme amounts of water enriched with nutirents instead of soil. So you might want to rethink the hydroponics thing. And instead call it a greenhouse where you can regulate the temps and soil nutrient levels. Just a friendly suggestion...

Rosh, thanks for the link dude. Since I have 3Ds Max 7 I should be ok. :D

I decided to open up the Units folder and check out the Civ4UnitInfos.xml file. Each unit in the game has a listing just like this: <UnitClassInfo> <Type>UNITCLASS_HINDU_MISSIONARY</Type> <Description>TXT_KEY_UNIT_HINDU_MISSIONARY</Description> <iMaxGlobalInstances>-1</iMaxGlobalInstances>...

Gee, Kotario, I thought most of my displeasure over civ 4 seems to be pointed at the combat system, and I do see from your post you are one of those the graphics are cool crowd so I would expect you to change the focus of my post. :wink: And I suppose you like the powerups for the units...

My first complaint is I don't like the overall looks very much. Now I've played a second game, and zoomed out, and that seemed to help, making it seem not so cluttered...somewhat. The 3D graphics are not awe inspiring. My second complaint is that the battleship and destroyer cannot bombard...

What I mean by 'powerups' is that once a unit has enough 'experience' you can choose new abilities, (read powerup) like 2 square view, road travel rate. Abilites that are not part of the unit when the game began. this is one of the new features the idiots are putting in to make it 'more...

Wooz's screens and the idiotic concept of 'powerups' in civ is the reason I call it civcraft, and will not get it. My following of this series of games ends with Civ 3. The thought of getting powerups for the units winning combat just makes me want to retch. :puke: Thorgrimm

Rosh, since you never picked up what I was trying to say I will spell it out for you. I was never calling into question your basic premise that a single man can be responsible for a war, just that your usage of the Pearl attack was incorrect. Below is the radio traffic between Macarthur's...
