Years 2101-2106

[Darkness' Edge]

2101 - Game started. New Apolyton founded. Start exploring, initial battles with mindworms.

2103 - Pod gives a Unity Rover, further exploring. Another pod creates an underground river.

2106 - Pod creates another underground river. Start researching Centauri Ecology. Monolith enhances Rover to hardened status. Game stopped, as a name and location need to be determined for second city.

Would have liked to have got a few more turns played out, but oh well...

[Main_Brain]

uhm you know you can set the Researchgoal at Turn One by pressing Crtl-R?

*confused*
Well the Rivers will make upfor it

[Vlad Antlerkov]

MB: We've been accumulating research points since Planetfall.

Here's the 2106 map:

[Vlad Antlerkov]

And New Apolyton, 2106 (with the current production in the Commerce window ):

[Haon]

Why did we not get that colony pod that is two squares out side the base??

[Vlad Antlerkov]

Oh, you mean the goody-hut Unity pod.

We'll get to it eventually. (Right now, we're exploring the north.)

[MrWhereItsAt]

Loading the save means restarting into Windows ME, which can't use the 'Net on my comp, so can anyone tell me now whether we built the Garrison as the first item in the queue? And how long until CentEco?

And when do we play the next turns?

[Vlad Antlerkov]

16 turns until CentEco (IIRC), and the garrison (Scout Patrol, as you requested) is done and fortified.

CP will be done in 11 turns. If we work the nutrient resource NW of the minerals, it'd still be 11 turns, but growth would be in 7 turns (not 17).

[DeathByTheSword]

just do the nutrient for faster grows the second one can be on the mineral thing. the second base can be on the rainy square 7 tiles north-west of new apolyton. right besides the river

[DeathByTheSword]

and other question can i get pics from the game with paintshoppro7?

[The Bloody Baro]

Problem: Whenever I download the Sav file. it has a face instead of a window icon, so I can't play it. Does any one have a cure for my plight.

[Maniac]

May I suggest changing our production from that rolling&moist tile to that rolling&moist&nutrient bonus tile?

[DeathByTheSword]

agreeing here with manaic and Tbb donnu

[- Groucho -]

I third Maniac's suggestion - unless you want to abandon the base in 11 turns that is.

[Vlad Antlerkov]

Agreed. Will post that in the official orders thread (the next one).

Baro: Have you tried unzipping the file? (Probably too insulting to ask.) SMAC can't read .sav files in compressed folders (and SMACX isn't any better).

Or do you have the v4 patch?
