  • Tech Share Challenge

    The original idea is by DilithiumDad who posted in Strategy forum www.apolyton.net/forums/forum31/HTML/000517.html?date=11:44
    this idea:
    If the AI is always in difficult because of her low tech level why don't help her?
    How to do this? Simple: in negotiation try always to share tech.

    Well, I've got another idea: Why try to share your tech with diplomacy when you can give at the other faction all your tech without diplomacy?
    These are 2 challenge.

    The Share Tech Challenge
    Before playing SMAC/X, select all the
    factions but your and add SHARETECH, 2
    then play the game as you want.

    The Ultimate Share Tech Challenge
    Before playing SMAC/X, select all the
    factions but your and add SHARETECH, 1
    then play the game in this method:
    • Trascend Level.
    • Normal Map
    • Arid/Strong erosive forces
    • Lot of native lifeforms (few if you are Caretakeer,Gaiain,Cult)
    • IRON MAN
    • Try to survive!


    ^ As the Americans learned so painfully in Earth's final century, free flow of information is the only safeguard against tyranny. The once-chained people whose leaders at last lose their grip on information flow will soon burst with reedom and vitality, but the free nation gradually constricting its grip on public discourse
    has begun its rapid slide into despotism. Beware of he who would deny you access to information, for in his heart he dreams himself your master.

  • #2
    This challenge as you describe it requires the editing of every single faction file!

    Why not just edit two files? I suggest editing the Drones in to the "Super Drones":

    TECHSHARE=1 (will always be #1 in tech)

    and just to make them unstoppable:

    +2 growth

    Next, edit the Hive into "The Juggernauts". The Juggernauts have all advantages totally maxed out (+5 everything) and TECHSHARE=1.

    Now try to compete with these two mighty factions! I suggest you use Huge map to give yourself a bit of a chance!
