Reply to So who has the lowest "Member No. XXXX"? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I've noticed Brad is #1 for a while now, but I want to know who is #2? I've only seen one other under 100 and I think it's CariElf at #63.

Reply to Im not only one? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

I usually go abundant all, on a large map. I just hate seeing those empty star systems, I'd rather see open space. I does take me a while to finish a game though. ;)

Reply to New Stardock Fantasy TBS - Inspirations in Games in Development GalCiv2 Forums

I liked the diversity of the races in MOM, especially the ones that gave you mana. I also liked the way you created a custom wizard/leader with specific spell schools using the books and/or other bonuses.

Reply to Battle Stratiges in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

I like to set a rally point near the center of my territory and name it 'Central'. As I expand I add rally points closer to the border and name them using either a cardinal direction or an enemy empire like 'South' or 'Korx'. I always set them to fleet rally points so they gather the ships, but never to autoattack, I like to control when they leave.

I use a balanced slider strategy mostly, but have tryed the all factory with research focus, as well.

Reply to How old are you? in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

35, I guess I missed this thread the first few times as I was lurking. My first computer was a Tandy-1000, if you don't count the Atari 2600. When my parents got me the computer I was so disappointed it wasn't a Commadore 64. I just recently got a third computer for my kids, mainly so they don't mess up my machine. My 11 year old (girl) is already playing GC2, SoaSE, and Guild Wars. Along with board games; Samari Swords, Axis & Allies, Warrior Knights and even D & D

Reply to I forgot how good MOM is in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

I disagree: keep it TBS. There are plenty of RTS games out there. I agree that Sins is way better than the usual frantic click fest, but MOM would not be MOM in real time. I loved MOM, it was better than Civ and MOO in many ways. I can't wait to see what Stardock can do with their upcoming 'fantasy strategy that is not officially MoM 2' game.
