My graphics issue didn't stop by going to the desktop and back, but was fixed by closing and reopening the entire program. However, after I reloaded from a save and continued the same game in progress, it was only a few minutes before I had the same issue, and eventually the CTD.

I had similar issues. I've just had the game for a few days, and the patch helped performance significantly (although I do get significant slowdowns whenever routing is involved), it seems that the floodwaters have reached Salem: This was followed by a CTD not too much later. :(

That depends on who's running the games, I guess, but with Civ3 we renamed the games slightly and started over with 1. So, the first Play the World SG was RBP1, and the first Conquests SG was RBC1. We don't *have* to do it that way this time, but that system was nice in that you could tell...

Sounds like the Union of Millers Local 48 likes to kick back with a Miller after work. :beer: I doubt that this computer can handle Huge (not a signup), but wanted to add the union layer to the fun. Clearly, this is a Working Man's Game. :lol:

If you have a free partition and an OS that can use NTFS, you could always install a version of the game on the NTFS partition.

That's why I always like to say "I see it" if I know that I'm up but haven't downloaded the file. I've actually become somewhat superstitious in that I feel like if I say "got it" instead of "see it", and haven't downloaded the save yet, something will happen that prevents me from downloading...

Well, the part that I wasn't getting was whether you were unhappy about Always War in general, or whether you didn't think it was a good choice for that particular game. I responded as if you were unahppy with AW in general (since it's NOT the right choice for every game!), and it sounds like I...

Always war wasn't designed to be balanced. It was originally created by people looking to have the additional challenge of the AI always ganging up on the player. Liquidated, I must say that I often have a hard time understanding what it is you're trying to say in your posts because of your...

Well, I for one think it's funny that the last thing that happens in-game is that Fred asks us for peace. I don't know what Dwip told him, but I wasn't going for it. He had Qinnie and Kublai to worry about, anyway. An interesting thing that I note is that we really weren't that far off...

I think that an involved captain is the key to a successful SG. Although I write too much like an event logger, but with less color, I am in full agreement there. If you can't even tell who is attacking whom, and why, it can be really hard to follow. They "why" is so critical in SG turns.

I notice that it seems like there's a lot more idle RB games these days, and that's a shame. SG's are all about momentum, otherwise it's too easy to click through your turns in a daze, because the team's goals aren't really fresh in your mind, or because you've been up in too many games and...

:bump: :mischief:

:bump: None of you have Epics to play at the moment, right? :groucho: Anyway, I'm just trying to decide what area of the succession games page to put this game into the "finished" games or keep it in the active section. If you guys still want to see it through (c'mon, 50 turns! ;) )...

T - 12 turns Parts In Production- Cockpit - in TImbuktu Stasis Chamber - in Walata Thrusters (third) - Tekedda Casing (fifth) - Awlil Parts needed, but not being produced - Engine Docking Bay Life Support We're two turns from plastics, and need to grab robotics still as well. Qin has...

Unfortunately, it looks like everything's down- our host's domains are down as well, so I can't get through to him. It could be something as simple as a power outage on his end, or something like that. I guess we'll all just have to wait. :( Luckily, Kylearan has already emailed me the Adv 3...
