Now we are up to Ice-30X so let me update as I've learned a couple of things. I don't worry about Ion Drive or combat speed since these FF can still move several spaces per turn. My new Monster FF does 72 damage per salvo. It has 2 Fast Nukes in the 1st slot and 1 MIRV Merc with Fast and Armor...

Hi friends, my UI is messed up after playing Vox Populi and returning to vanilla BNW. Yes, I launched with mods off! My issues are at the top left of the page it shows happiness off and policies off and is also missing what used to come to the right of the diamond and a couple other things...

Thx and I am all set now!

Thx but whatdo I have to do to get the exact image of resources? I cannot get them no matter what I do!

Thx, changing the timing of the tool tips makes the game better for me, but nothing I can do can tell me what I get for my copper monopoly!

Thx. I don't get the tooltips I see others get and use in their vidoes. I get nothing when I hover or a resource. How to I get the tooltips which also help me know exactly what the resourse is?

How do I see what I gain by having a monopoly? How can I best address the constant happiness issues? thx .. neilkaz ..

This is for Ice-26. I just set a new ICE-mod PR by killing the Guardian on T186! I play only Huge/Imp/8/Prewarp. The fleet was 7 BB with 5 MIRV Zeons backed up by 2 MIRV EMG Zeons to get the kill once the shield was knocked down. I didn't have Battle Pods having chosen non-creative for a few...

Let me update for Ice-26X as there have been some changes. You can no longer MIRV Nukes, but like in Vanilla you can again MIRV Mercs once you have Zort-armor or equivalent Chem tech. So what I am doing is waiting for Z-armor and then building the following Monster Frigate (FF). I want to build...

Once in a while I will play Cluster maps. Since returning to the game after two years I have 5 wins and 1 loss with my DemoLith race. I micro a lot as well and especially early on or when it is unclear how I am doing. LOL at my horrid loss. I stared very deep in the lower left corner and lasted...

Thx for the help, I am all set now. Yeah, I play only ICE-X prewarp, huge, impossible, 8 players.

Help needed please. I am playing again and AI Surrender almost ruined my game. Windows 10 here. How exactly do I set surrender delay to 999 which basically removes this from the game. I cannot find the .cfg file needed. Thx .. neilkaz ..

So to use the new patch and ICE 19 I need to install the updated launcher?
