Author Topic:   30+ Bases Late Game

Has anyone played a game where you've got over 30 bases late game.. and you start to get sick and tired of having to go through at least 5 bases a turn to tell them what to make? I tried turning on the govenor... yeah... he's a real winner.. I fired his ass in no time flat. It would really be nice if there was a way we could design a queue that we could copy/paste from city to city. I KNOW what I want to build.. I just hate having to spend time on EACH city setting up the queue.
And how about the ability to change the queues for all the cities <tell them all to start building Punishment Spheres as soon as they are done there current item for instance>
Am I missing something here? Can any of this be done? Or maybe I'm going to have to wait to buy 'Alpha Centauri: The Govenors AI' addon?

You can save/load costomized queues by right click on the queue.

30 bases is nothing. Try 100+ which I had in my biggest game. 80 of which all had 25+ populations and producing a structure in either 1 or 2 turns. Now that sucks, especialy since I dont like using governers. But in the end it was worth with the redicuoulsy high score I achieved (488%)
