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. -
Cataphract, if you haven't noticed yet, you play against one of the best Hive players around. I would immediately muster all Univ personel for even better work. Including lab nerds for faster beaker cleaning and those in field for faster carrot planting...Originally posted by Cataphract887

Theres only me and franky ! its not that hard to get into the top 2 mart, i have enough trouble keeping BinTs mouth shut with his massive exaggerations 
There is no way i could ever get IA so early without cooperation on a large map.
Nice 4 bases down there Cata, dont be worried though im "relatively" friendly this game unlike other games ... stupid 8000 years of sanctions

I got IB and IE from good old santi
had to kinda promise to kill the Gaians as you saw, but its one less irritating women in the world of smac leaders
Is everybody against you cata ? you're letting your paranoia in there, making me proud though lol. Just remember not to waste too long building those SP's because theres quite a few landbridges around and i might be tempted if you take my favourite nice spartan weaponary, shes doing well. *Councillor whispers something into ear* ... err what i meant was we might trade you a really big base for that one
Your tech rate isn't as bad as hers as you claim

exaggerations?
It would be a real pain in the arse to kick your hiverian ass even if I took Univ (which I do the best)!

You might see Deimos Experiment, where I attampted to "turn off" ICSing benefits. Also something to aid builder playstyle.Originally posted by binTravkin

It is for University. Anyway, having what is there, how balance between "still ICSing" and "pop booming" might look like as seen by Univ experienced player?Comment

I suspect that my style of ICS, which allows a base 5-7 tiles to work, and would normally try to achieve pop boom through perpetual GA, wouldn't actually be all that hindered by your modifications, until maybe the very late game, when energy sats would normally start going up.
bT's on the other hand, which is significantly more dense, would likely experience significant problems. With only 3 tiles worked a base, it's just too difficult to boom the bases to a decent size, while not sacrificing minerals/energy. At least, until he has his sats up. My ICS style might not have enough bases to really get enough benifit from the sats to make them all that worth it. bT's on the other hand....well, while he's not going to build 4x as many bases as me, he should still have enough with 2x as many bases to derive a benefit, if he can build them. The only problem there is the huge cash outlay that he'd have to make to achieve each build. Assuming he's in Demo/FM/Wealth, that's 880 credits to rush each sat (assuming a 10 mineral carryover). That's not impossible (hell, it should only be about 60-70% of his yearly income post Fusion), but it does reduce his ability to rush in other areas, and I'm not sure exactly how big the tradeoff would be there.Veni Vidi Castravi IllegitimosComment
