[quote quoting="post"] Imagine if a clone of Josef Stalin was the leader of TEC. Stalin 2 says I will give you ten upgrades to maximize the strengths of the Ragnarov and Ankylon, while reducing their weaknesses. What ten active abilities(exp. scatter shot) and/or passive abilities (exp. high stress alloy) would you get? Stalin 2 would ask this question while a laser gun was pointed at you head and your family was in a star base airlock. [/quo

There is not remotly enough time to save anything, this is the reason it was nerfed. Again.... the Titan first is brought into alignment and then it micro jumps and triggers Maw. Smart human execution is to move your ships the moment Vorastra enters the gravity well. There is enough time to do t

It should be noted that you need 4 planets for every single superweapon. So 8 planet means 2, 16 planets mean 4 cannons... ect. If you have multiple AIs teaming up on you with them, you are just out of luck. Besides the AI cannot use the tremendously powerful Kostura in a meaningfull way..... loosing a few structures to it is meaningless compared to the power of moving an entire fleet anywhere in a solar system within under a minute. But then the

[quote who="Freyja_Bjorn" reply="45" id="3357547"]If you nerf phase missiles you really hit vasari hard. Instead of nerfing them, buff or atleast give advent and tec better late game defence against phase missiles. Early game vasari rely heavily on them. Take that away like every other early game gimmick they have and they will fail anywhere but economy spots.[/quote] I strongly disagree. Phase missiles, like all weapon upgrades are more or less

There might be an rather easy way for Stardock to make DLC and non DLC games compatible together: Give DLC content to all version of the game.... BUT allow only people who own the DLC, to host or start new games with the DLC. for example: Player A - has bought the DLC. Player B - has not bought the DLC. Player A is hosting a game with DLC functionality. Player B j
