Long live SMAC and this board

[Bruce205]

Just wanted to say hello to everyone as I am a rather new player of Smac/x and to this board.
I hope people still play this game and post information for newbies like me. I am more encouraged when games show a strong following.
Anyway thanks for listening.

Sorry double post

( its a long way to deity LOL)

[Flubber]

THis game has a reasonable number of people that still cosider it the best turn-based strategy game ever made, despite its unfixed bugs. This community is still pretty active when it comes to answering questions so never be afraid to ask ( and I'm never afraid to chime in if I have a sweet clue as to the answer . . . but I highly recommend using the search feature to look for relevant threads and doing some reading . The amount of information already posted is astounding, with very detailed tests and analysis in some cases and simple practical experiences in others. I continue to go back and read some of the old threads to refresh myself.

So welcome and enjoy

Curious, Flubber's second post is dated from before his first post.

Oh, and welcome to Poly.
Rest assured, there are other SMAC newbies here.

[Jamski]

Yeah, poly's acting odd again. I had a DP yesterday with a couple of hours and half a dozen posts between the two.

Oh, welcome to the land of SMAC addicts

The board froze up on me so I pressed submit a second time-- I only noticed later that I had a double post. I guess the backward timestamping means that the time gets attached to the post at some time prior to it getting attached to the thread

[Bruce205]

Thanks for all the welcomes and encouragement. I do have Vels guide and am reading through it now.

As a newbie, you may find my SMAC and SMAX reference material useful.
