2180: Change Sementhial Garrison to Plasma Garrison.
2181: The Flowers Preach builds Colony Pod -> Network Node. IoD captures IoD. Investigate Monolith -> get repaired. 2182: I notice we have an alient artifact in Last Rose of Summer, but are 12 turns from building a network node. I send the artifact to Song of Planet for inspection. 2183: Spartans demand we leave. 2184: The alien artifact arrives at Song of Planet and I find the node there has already been used. Found Forest Primeval, set to Recycling Plant. Zakharov offers us 40 energy for contact with Lal, I give it. Next I give Polymorphic Software in exchange for High Energy Chemistry. Morgan refuses to swap techs - what can we do to convince them to trade? I can't remember the twists of diplo at all... Santiago demands Planetry Networks when I talk to her! I refuse and she backs down. Lal demands Secret of the Human Brain, I refuse again and he retreats. 2185: Vale of winds completes Plasma Sentinal prototype. Pop pod -> maps. Pop pod -> Unity Rover. Pop pod -> Pod swallowed by IoD. 2186: Gaia's Landing builds Biology Lab -> Command Nexus. Pop pod -> minerals. 2187: 2188: Mindworm spots Mind Worm -> Kills. The Hive cancels our Pact, not sure why... Morgan now offers us 175 energy and Gene Splicing to attack the Spartans. IIRC they are right next to us, so I say no for now. He still refuses to trade tech for tech. Fuck, he has declared a vendetta on us - at least we are half the world away. I suggest upgrading some Synthmetal Garrisons to Plasma Garrisons and building some 4-1-1 units when the current projects complete. 2189: Research Ethical Calculus. Select Intellectual Integrity. Mindwork activity is increasing for the next 20 years - have fun guys! 2190: Pop pod -> Alien Artifact. Pop pod -> mineral resources. I left 1 former without orders, I couldn't decide what to do with it. We have a network node in a base and another in the NW corner of our territory, we should hook these up soon. I have been sharing the units out over the cities. Some cities had many more than 2 units and some cities had no units assigned to them at all. This is a huge waste in produciton and we must be much more carful in future. There is 1 base left paying support to units. One of those units is on auto-move to another base where it needs to be re-homed, and it still needs more re-homing. SMAC 2190AD

A great set of turns, but please remember to rebase units! I don't want to be the only person doing it.
Can you remind us of the Democracy changes? I looked at it and I didn't think it was worth it. IIRC economy went from +4 to +6 with Demo, and I thought anything over +4 was wasted? I need focus in this game - in Civ I know exactly what to focus on and when (and why!), but with SMAC I feel like I am using a sledgehammer to break eggs.

anarres, you may be right about the Democracy switch not being very clever. We indeed went from +4 to +6 for econmy but lost on support. Sorry for that!
PS. I would have taken pics, but the screenprints just look terrible. EDIT: regarding our future plans: I would just kill Morgan with the mindworms we have (or have him surrender to us). Other weaker nations may be next! |

Looking around
The game looks weird and yet familiar. Turns out I loaded my own practice game Load correct game. Much better! Have the impression we need more formers, but I dont know if we can afford it with the city support construction. Press next turn: System crash. Reload. Turn 1 - 2201 We discoverIntellectual integrity. Switch to neural grafting. Discover IoD can carry units! Land unity rovers, capture mindworm. Pop a pod, reveals nutrients. Pop a pod and it's infested. Forgot that could happen. Build some roads, morgan wont talk, idiot. Turn 2 - 2202 Vale of Winds builds Network Node. Turn 3 - 2203 Greenhouse Gate riots. MM. Velvetgrass Point finishes NetworkNode, start childrens creche. turn 4 - 2204 Industrial collapse at Song of Planet. Is this a random event??? Silverbird Park builds Network Node, switch to childrens creche. Set a second former to drill aquifer near Razorbeak Wood. Turn 5 - 2205 Myriam starts human genome project Turn 6 - 2206 We lose a former to a mind-worm, DAMN. Collect mindworms on IoD to move against morgan turn 7 -2207 Univesity is nearing completion of the Virtual world. Trade a tech for gene splicing with miriam. We cant afford to buy The virtual world, noone has the money to buy techs from us. Crap! turn 8 - 2208 Buran Project builds the Virtual world. I'm sad. University is now almost completingn human genome too! We discover nerual grafting. I switch Virtual World to human genome and hurry it for 468 credits. Yang declares war out of the blue and takes a IoD carrying a alien artefact. Now I hate him too. turn 9 - 2209 Uni builds comman NExus turn 10 - 2210 Nothing much Our war with dear Yang is bad news, because our military isnt really doing great.
