    B: ..er..nvm


    Ive heard of these handheld devices that can take a digital picture of *gasp* the real world. They can then actualy be uploaded onto a puter ZOMGWTF!11. its true, really

      Not so much weird as just plain evil

      So I'm playing around with my January Challenge and I noticed that Yang is running FM. One of the things I built into this game is a Fungal Missile, as I rarely ever get to use these in a game, nor have I ever seen how the AI's use these in a game, and I'm just curious as to how the AI's will deal with the effects of these missiles as well as whether the AI's will use them or not (they do! ). So I start to bombard one of Yang's bases with these Fungal Missiles. Picture pretty much tells the rest from there!

        Another shot from the same game showing a landlocked sea colony pod. The only rationale I can come up with is that an enemy AI used a Tectonic Payload near the base, thus marooning the sea colony pod. I then detonated a few Fungal Payload missiles around the base....

          And another shot, this one of a Spartan ODP shooting down one of my Fungal Missiles....

              It's fun to tease the AI with fungal missiles, watching them struggle to support units and their bases slowly starving.
              Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendant, and to embrace them is to acheive enlightenment.

                These screenshots are from my January SMAX Challenge. Essentially I've boosted the AI's significantly such that they'll keep pace with the human player's research rate. Also, I'm trying a new CMN strategy whereby I am overloading the middle game with options. Essentially I've changed the alphax.txt such that the Fungal and Tectonic missiles, as well as orbitals are available with SFF and Doc:AP. Thus some of the AI's go for the missiles (which then becomes more challenging to the human player to deal with), and some of the AI's go for orbitals. The CMN idea here being that the human player still has to contend with the conventional warfare that is going on, while then also having to counter/ contend with Orbitals and Missiles (i.e. it then becomes much more challenging to contend for supremacy in this environment). Its a different game, to say the least!

                  In this version, because the Fungal and Tectonic Missiles come so early in the game (and I made them relatively cheap), it is almost guarranteed that you will also get to experience the "pleasure" of missile bombardment as well.....

                          Perhaps you will have to retry "a few" times?

                            No, Transcendence is on. It'll be interesting to see if you can reach it or not, though....

                                Well, I think that I also would pause for a moment if I popped a PB
                                With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
