Shores of Hazeron - again! a free deep galactic MMO space game [Servers have been permanently shut - Games

has the galaxy been reset yet? Can't wait till it does. Fresh start and should lead up to some interesting conflicts.

Galaxy will probably be reset on new years.

[QUOTE=SeamanStains;42494356]Size = Tech availability Two empires of the same size would be able to produce the same amount of tech. Say your empire has 10,000 tech crystals in order to build ships with. do you want a TL10 ship, two TL5 ships or ten TL1 ships. It's a choice. Smaller empires can still get high tech, just less of it. Larger empires can get more high tech, but still have to balance quality vs quantity. and real world examples of tech don't matter. this is a game, games are meant to be played. I realise, of course, the rift in tech that exists in real life, but being an iraqi during desert storm isn't fun when you want to win. Skill shouldn't be made irrelevant due to some pointless arbitrary advantage.[/QUOTE] I'd argue tech put into ships at least would be better served by being limited by rarer resource costs, higher maintenance, and higher initial costs in general. Thats not refuting your argument, im not sure your idea revolved around tech crystals of some sort anyway. If a scaling down was actually done, and extraction rates tuned, it could probably maybe work. The main issue would be balancing maintenance vs initial cost here. If initial cost is too large in comparison to maintenance, it becomes more of an rts style of how many factories you can fuel at the same time, more maintenance importance and you move more towards sustaining it. (assuming maintenance costs are based off and using the same resources as initial cost, as well as other monetary, population, etc type costs)

For anyone still unaware, NeoCAS can produce warpships now.

[QUOTE=ZombieWaffle;42525338]For anyone still unaware, NeoCAS can produce warpships now.[/QUOTE] Which probably means you should produce more warships.

Many, many warships.

From now on I am going to make plans for colonies in advance, calculate out all of the resources per minute, and balance supply accordingly. I dont want to waste anything, and if I know what I need to place down, then I can just sort of plop down cookie-cutter colonies on various worlds, leave them overnight, and then boom, I have a new colony providing delicious resources for me empire. Also, since I am playing this again, I want to join whatever NeoCas will become after the wipe.

Oh damn I forgot about this. My craptop wouldn't run it and main computer was shitting itself so never got around to it. Have my new pc now so I think I'll get into this. Someone recap me on basic procedure for not being retarded upon joining the game?

I'm back ladies! What's up! This NeoCas thing looks cool, coords? :D

You can contact Anterp or Lordoflard about joining NeoCAS.

It's best to just make a general guess, adjust for a couple of cycles and then just remember the layout when the economy looks stable enough. Then you use that layout.

Its not that hard to calculate the resources per minute, unless its something like making bullion, then how much you get depends on the metal QL.

[url]http://www.raumkraut.net/hazeron/colonycalc.html[/url] :) I use the values from this plus extra as spares, because depending on the tech level they might break or be wasted. [editline]16th October 2013[/editline] Oh.. I misread. I thought you guys were talking about calculating the supplies you need to make a colony. My bad. Still a nice site though.

What system is it that NeoCAS has that produces warships? I might make a few ships off there. Commore and Taranis haven't given me any luck.

New Detroit at commore ringworld can produce ships. We're soon abandoning for another, new ringworld.

[QUOTE=Turkey Sandvich;42556119]The 20-section one I found for you guys?[/QUOTE] This makes me want to get in and design a godwarshipofdeathborgcube

the new ringworlds are so glitchy [editline]18th October 2013[/editline] you can't access a design studio on them or risk crashing

I just spent over 60 million chronos playing Texas Hold'em with these three other guys. HELP. But at least there was a nice view of the planet I was bankrupting [t]http://i.imgur.com/GiYSRLM.png[/t]

Merv and I resolved the situation peacefully. I went in expecting a war, but instead we made some new friends. I feel like the future is pretty bright!

turns out the blood ravens are actually cool

How can i join NeoCAS? I've already surrendered my city to you

Wait, that's Hazeron?!

[QUOTE=DVH;42639363]Wait, that's Hazeron?![/QUOTE] I dunno why that pic is posted. It's from a map in Halo 1

So what do you actually do with it?

you use it to activate your ringworld and initiate galaxy reset
