  • Theres some things I discovered lately..
    More suitable for Strategy forum, but too little to start a new thread there:

    I was playing hotseat with myself
    (in some other PBEMs, Strategic Command: European Theater, for example, its a good method of working out new strategies)
    Its like you being in every of those 7 places, ruling all 7 facs..
    Im very peaceful though and I think the fastest progress in SMAC/X can be achieved when living as peaceful as you can.
    So the result was: 7 pacted facs..
    In SE I was running Demo/FreeMarket/Wealth for Morgan, Police/Green/wealth for Hive, Demo/Planned/Knowledge for Spartans and Demo/Planned/Wealth for everyone other..
    I choosed Demo/Planned + Creche to get pop boom fast
    The result was a "sudden boom" for 5 facs very early (they had only 4-6 bases each), Hive at that time having 9 bases&slowly expanding, building only RecTanx and Economy improving basefacs, because there was good use of them (imagine +6energy from pacts) and Morgan having 3bases and building the same as Hive + Psych facs(to get Golden age) + Creche
    Also - I avoided trading too much, but enough not ot research same tech 2 times and get needed SE&basefacs&formers&commerce..
    So a few turns after that boom started (It was way too rapid as most facs were in Rainy areas) and I was considering to switch SE to not so aggresive replicating I got PlaEco and GlobalPact..
    Talking about Morganites who had +4 commerce from SE&fac properties and so earned +8 from each fac resulting a sum of 48 from all + average of 24 from base; divided by 2.5 (used 40%/20%/40% scheme) is 28 then having TreeFarm/HybridForest/EnergyBank result is 28*2.5 = 72 per turn.
    Also psych was running at 150% so the output was 14*2.5 = 36 and I lowered the psych percent to 10, thus havin even more money!!!
    At this rate the building speed of Morganic base was enormous having 2boreholes,2rolling farms+ 3min from base + all that energy resulted in 16mins/turn + 80en/turn which divided by 2 is 40..
    50-60 mins/turn is not a small amount having only 4 citizens,2boreholes and not having any factory-like basefacs..

    Other facs also made good use of commerce, but having Morgan, who built all base facilities in just a few turns I first understood the real force of peace - It is a very powerful weapon, when used right!

            Peacekeepers are really growing very strong. It is good that they are controlled by a computer. It makes the game more balanced. They are lucky to have monsoon jungle very close and they made good use of it.

                          • You Walek seem to be too dedicated to this game or youre having too much leisure time - I always see you online!

                            However there are people like me, who work hard to keep up with the bills this life is giving me..
                            Maybe when the Mind/Mach interface will be researched I (or my brain) will be inserted in a cell and connected to Internet neurally - then I will probably have enough time to play turns at a speed of 1turn/min or even faster..
                            Maybe in this autumn I will have gathered enough money to buy myself a laptop - then my turns will be played almost as soon as received, but by then I cant offer anymore speedups..
