Re: How can a trade empire mantain control?

Yeah, I just switched last night because I'm going to start soaking up some of the empty space down south, but I only had "low" risk of succession with 110 planets and 4 caps on the jumpship doctrine.

Re: How can a trade empire mantain control?

Limit for non- L&O doctrines is two capitals (imperial capital + one sector capital) and 100 worlds , if you exceed both secession is inevitable . You can have more than 2 capitals if you have less than 100 worlds. OR You can have >100 worlds as long as you never have more two capitals. ...but you ...

Re: Recruiting Campaign!

I agree!

The challenge for me has been finding people interested in this kind of micromanaging. I got two people to join, one of them never really got into it and the other conquered almost half the alpha server before quitting out of boredom (not enough people in alpha, not enough space in beta).

Huh, that'll be something to try next time I get a few isolated worlds in a corner somewhere...

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

None of the suggestions have worked excepting the second parts world (which I have yet to try but had suspected would fix it). Ah, so someone else found out about the shield, eh? I've known it was possible for a while but never had good cause to use it since the old Barricades Pact's last Great War....

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

There's an interesting situation with the Rathari cluster just north of my capital. Although the rest of the empire works just fine, this cluster is unable to trade starship parts. At all. The yard(s)/autofac have been up and running for over a day and I've reset all the trade routes three times sin...

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

Oh, is that what all those halfway-nonexistant worlds are? Do you guys know what happened to cause that result instead of the empire just continuing without a capital or the previous kind of no-capital bug?

Fav Custom Keyboard Layout?

What's everyone's favorite key maps? I liked the older preset one fairly well but am now trying to wean myself onto this one. My goal was to use the arrow keys for movement but somehow incorporate WASD into the mix. I was also trying to keep all the combat functions in one place (left hand WASD) and...

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

Beta II. I sent scouts to your capital to say hello :D Note to self (and the galaxy at large): [high tech] trade hub starclusters don't work so well unless you control most (or all) of the systems in range of the hub. Stick to mesh nets unless you're in the middle of nowhere and your nearest neighbo...

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

The Rathari First World lies just north of the galactic core, but the area is terrible resource-wise so I'm going to take any pocket I can with a decent supply of chronimium. It seems I've got quite a bit of catching up to do!

Re: Anacreon Beta II Discussion Thread

The other great Empires were leaving. The galaxy was growing cold. Dieing. The time had come. The Felor peoples had spread so far across the stars, building a great Civilization to withstand the test of time, but the fiery spark of determination that had fueled their expansion for so long was flicke...

Re: POLL: Features to implement first next release?

I definitely agree with Finnian, it's a royal pain trying to buy decent defenses off of Mesophon.

But those messages... Especially on a dieing world that takes over a day to finally break away... :evil: :evil: :evil:

Re: New / Exotic planets and star systems

I like the idea of having a comet! A big one entering the inner system would look spectacular! - Probably code-intensive, but having objects actually move along their orbital paths would be cool (mostly asteroid belts and high-speed inner planets). - An idea I've been toying with recently is a gate ...
