Learning about Gal Civ 3 (yes I'm late to the party) got me to reinstall Gal Civ 2 and give it a try. Played it a ton back in the day. I wanted at least some mod to overcome basic glitches. Gaunathor appears to be very knowledgeable so gonna give this one a try! Appears I'm getting version 1.01. 3 questions. 1)
I was toying with both and just threw down with Distant Worlds, with all expansions. It seemed to have more depth. Just got through tutorials and started first game. Very excited.
Thanks, that's what I was missing.
"These planets have small red icons around them that turn yellow with the first colonization tech and then green with the advanced colonization tech." What is the difference between a planet being yellow or green in this situation? I've been scouring the web and can't find the answer. Basically, what is the difference between Aquatic Colonization and Advanced Aquatic Colonization?
Sorry you had to go through that Mason, ouch. I wish you the best in your future travels. Ayreon
[quote]So, I wonder if Jackson was prepared for this trip to eternity. Most people don't give it a thought.[/quote] I disagreed with you in the past KFC, but this is the first time you've just been flat dead wrong. *Everyone* thinks about what happens after they die (not including young kids of course). They just don't all come to the same conclusion you do.
Great article. Sounds like Warhammer has potential.
Thanks Cedarbird, much appreciated. I think I know what I did wrong now.
Tangent #2: I used blockquote (highlighted text and hit button) but it didn't work. If someone could point out how to quote something, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for answering KFC, you covered the points I was asking you to. There's many directions I could go from here, but they would likely be outside the scope of the article. If you are interested, I might pursue one with you. Tangent alert!!! Hey Ayreon, where did you get that name? 'Cause there's a totally bodacious European songwriter whose projects are under the name "Ayreon." Yep, that's the guy
My hypothetical is theoretically possible, therefore it's entirely valid, as theoretically possible is the definition of hypothetical. hypothetical - Wordnet noun 1. a hypothetical possibility, circumstance, statement, proposal, situation, etc.; "consider the following, just as a hypothetical" I'm not saying it's likely, just possible. Even God himself entertained this possibility as it is infered in the Bible that he intended for
This may not be your bent, but I'm going to ask you a hypothetical. Let's say a boy was doing very well, obeyed his parents, did his schoolwork, went to church every sunday. In 5th grade, lots of kids are throwing spitwads at Lisa in class. It looks like fun. Our hero, in a moment of questionable judgement, throws a spitwad at Lisa. He instantly regrets it. He goes home and tells his parents he wants to be a monk. They agree, and he spe
I'll have to show this article to my son, he loves Diamond and it's a nice distraction on road trips. I agree that designers *can* get it right even when making a game ostensibly for kids.
Wow. 4x isn't really my genre but this may be too good to pass up. Nice work.
Good article. However, "Loser" would be a bit harsh to describe someone who doesn't ace everything on the list. It suggests they are a loser of something. Loser of what? Likewise, if you humbly submit that you are Optimus Prime on every point and thus a "winner".. what do you win? Life? The internet? I do commend the list. Following it in general surely would benefit most people. I'm a bit bias because I myself am not
I guess I'm just confused as to where Satan's powers end and God's powers, um, keep going. Are you saying Satan just has the standard angel powers, and just uses them in an evil way? It would be helpful if someone could list: God's powers Satan's powers in a manner where they can be distinguished and compared. Ayreon
So Satan is daily trying to get into the souls of 6.8 billion people? A lot of places to be at once. That's a freakin' truckload of power. If he's not omnipresent, he's gotta be dang close. I don't recall angels (fallen or not) having this much power. Of course I don't know for sure, but still. Did God give Satan extra power (over standard angel power) once Satan became head Evil guy so he could do his job properly? <B
I will give you my perspective as a father of two close to the age you are teaching. My son is in fourth grade. He is fairly smart for his age, and typically does his homework on his own. I'm lucky that way. He does need help sometimes, which I'm glad to offer. I'd say he gets about 15 minutes of homework a night. Which turns into 30-40 minutes if he doesn't understand something. 15 minutes seems about right. One thing I lik
Hitchens himself said in an interview (can't remember which one sorry), that someday someone will run for president, not profess a belief in God, and no one will notice. I like the theme of your article, but it seems to goes askew half way through. "One who is a nonbeliever or simply lukewarm to religion is really irrelevant; for voters should know that in time of crises, a divine power is inevitably invoked." <BR
Hitchens, love that guy. Tells it like it is, even if he doesn't quite get it all right. Just finished watching his 3 hour CSPAN interview. I for one agree with a lot of his points.
Rudy Giuliani I like how he handled post-9/11 and he seems trustworthy. But I'm willing to change my vote - will be watching things more closely as the election nears. Interestingly, this is the first time ever that I've even considered giving my vote to a Democrat: Barack. But I'm not sold yet.
