I have a question. Does Accommodate Liir negates HR when determining Liir civilian growth rate? I know it negates HR when calculating maximum number of civilian population for a planet. But does it negate HR when calculating civilian population growth rate?

NOTE : I'm upgrading my PC and I don't know if I'll have Friday update on time.

I have to reinstall OS and all programs. I assume SOTS saved games can be easily transferred to new OS/game installation?

 

@SV

Thanks for clearing that up.

 

We'll see about that, Silencer. killcrazed.gif

 

We are researching 4 salvaged tech. I did check what they could be : 1 is Torpedo weapons (Disruptor), 1 is Biological (Environmental Tailoring) and 2 are Industrial (I hope Reflective Coating and probably Boarding Pods).

4 scouting reports and 1 colony assault. Note Bronson Alpha and its defenses.

NAP with Tarka - good for now. killcrazed.gif

Our first salvage tech is Disruptors. party.gif

Another Zuul colony bites the dust. And we rigorously defend our colony.

We research more weapons.

That Zuul colony with heavy defenses is no more. Combined Liir-Morrigi assault obliterated it.

Now this is interesting. I position scout ships 2 turns from enemy colony so I can see colony defenses and incoming ships. But this Zuul ship jumped that distance in 1 turn and it was faster in tactical combat than my scout.

Purple Zuul homeworld. This planet has become our number 1 target.

A hard battle.

We have Heavy fusion cannon available for research, but first I'm going for some other tech I hope I'll get.

First colonies that are full with Liir are being terraformed back to our HR.

We have 2 very nice defensive techs. And we get 2 very, very good tech from salvaged projects.

We are invited to join Morrigi-Liir alliance (1st and 2nd in global ranking). killcrazed.gif

We join Morrigi-Liir alliance. Almost all galaxy is revealed.

Political view. Our alliance spawns 4 sectors.

Trying to get Thumpers, but no dice. So we got another heavy turret weapon that will help us.

Now that we have all the tech for ships I wanted, here are the designs that will be workforce of the fleet.

Morrigi want out due to loading a game. Stupid bug! Fine by me. They are now alone.

Finally 2 techs that will make my Liir population managing easier. smile.png

To bad Morrigi left our alliance.

Current state of my room. In the center you can see my PC undergoing facelift operation. tongue.png

This means next update will be when all that PC building is over. I have 3 PC and a laptop to build (assemble and OS and SW install). :(

Heavy firepower incoming! Nice fortresses. Can't wait to see these ships in action. And Morrigi causing trouble here as well?! There must be something to their dreams of ruling the galaxy after all.

 

 

 

Well, damn, Veki, that looks like some serious computer undertaking you're into! Please don't build a time machine, I hear all sorts of things can go wrong. But if you do and travel back in time, don't step on that green goo that just came out of the water. wink.png

 

Anyway, good luck with that. And may the time pass quickly, four comps to set up takes quite a lot of it.

Nah, Morrigi are ok. Pretty much all are ok except Zuul. I wonder why. :P:D

It's just that annoying "load game - change diplomatic relation" bug that made them ask to change Alliance->NAP.

 

 

 

Yeah, 4 PC are a lot of work. I'm upgrading my PC with new CPU, MBO, RAM and GPU. I'm using my old components to build a PC for my nephew (added a case and PSU). 3rd PC in my new HTPC. And 4th is laptop. All have to be formatted and install OS and programs. I also have a lot of data to transfer (like 2 TB) and a lot of programs to install on my main PC (dual boot XP and Win 7 -> 2 times OS and programs install) and laptop (like VS2010, Matlab, DX SDK, 3DSMax, etc.). And all that in my free time after I come back from work. :(

Pretty much. :D

 

I had some problems with my 2nd monitor not working with HDMI output on my card. Turned out it was a faulty HDMI-to-DVI adapter. And now I have some problems with my laptop. I hope I'll fix everything this week.

 

Thanks for asking, SV. :)
