Googlie should be around. I last saw him a couple of weeks ago when he was getting ready for his fall migration southward.

And by the way a big wave to all the vets in this thread especially Vel.

Personally I thought that the criticisms of the strat guide's take on the SMAX factions rather harsh... at least until the criticiser proves his point by coming up with a bunch of fresh insights into these factions.

You just can't beat the strat guide. But I admit the CGN SMAC academy people have also done some good work.

Not to mention that there's a wealth of very useful information in the old threads in this board, though it takes some digging to find it.

By the way, I have to say that Vel's guide truly changed my game for the better. When I first downloaded the free version from Gamefaqs, I could barely drag myself away from the screen, that's how interesting the guide was. I realized that even though I had played the Civ games for a long time, I had a lot more to learn.

Hey, Vel .........good to see you you back for a spell (pun intended)

(My tardiness in noticing this thread shows how little time I spend in the strategy forum - mostly I'm CMN'ing or moderating the Democracy Game)

I do flit for Candle Bre news from time to time, and sneak through the Renaissance Portal to see what's happening, but mostly as a lurker these days.

Good to see you, bud!
