  • I'm back - and at a loose end

    I was away for a bit taking care of other things, but I have some free time now. Though I'm uncertain which project to continue with. Are people more interested in EotRS, the Korean War, my Solar Revolution, the Alien Invasion, RotTR, or some other project I've announced and forgotten. I still have them here on my HD, but untouched for almost 2 months. Please tell me in the poll (and maybe a post, too) which you'd prefer to see me pick up so I know which is most popular.

    Why don't you pick the one you want to finish, and finish it.

      Well, I am kind of in the mood for a speculative scifi, inspired both by Vendetta: Chernobog and my current literary project I hope to get published one day, so I'd say either Alien Invasion or Solar Revolution. Since I have no idea how to work multi-mapping, and have failed to get the posted instructions to work, I'm tempted to say focus on the Alien Invasion (the one where the defending Humans are just as bad as the invaders).

        My opinion exactly (for what it's worth ): choose the one you prefer right now, forget about the others for a while and finish it: it's so satisfying once you can release!

              If you genuinely don't mind which one you work on, there still isn't a *good* Korean War scenario (AFAIK!)...

                an (original) scenario "Kreta 1941" too far from your ideas ???

                    Pick the one you really want to finish an finish it, as Tech and Cyrion said. If you start a new one, and you're anything like me, you'll just end up with another unfinished scenario to add to the poll next time

                      I'm split between Korea and EoTRS. Korea needs a little bit more work (I've seen NK insurgents bribe USMC units - now, while I can see South Korean soldiers going over to the commies - especially at the disasterous beginning of the war - for US Marines to do the same), but EoTRS needs more work, IMHO.

                      That's all for now.

                        You know you can set a flag in the rules advanced section to make specific units unbribeable? I'm not sure whether the AI pays any heed to this mind you; I suspect not if you're playing at deity level.

                          Yes but if they are stationed in a bribeable city, unbribeable units can be bought off along with it. Even with the civ in democracy on that prevents city bribing, the AI has been known to cheat and bribe on occasion.

                            If an AI civ does not have diplomats/spies, it can only bribe single units which do not have the "can't bribe" flag. It can not bribe a city, regardless of it's government type.
