I was curious... who else plays supremacy?
JohnIII posted 05-28-99 02:36 PM ET
Star Wars: Supremacy?

Victor Galis posted 05-28-99 02:42 PM ET
No, the on-line sim.
JohnIII posted 05-28-99 02:44 PM ET
Oh. No, then.

Come on, so of you have to be in this. Am I all alone? Supremacy
Hugo Rune posted 05-29-99 11:47 AM ET
Checked it out. Seems incomplete...
Ronbo posted 05-29-99 11:51 AM ET
The URL didn't work for me, so I can't check it out, but is it based on the board game of the same name? If it is, count me in! I can remember spending entire weekends playing supremcay; one of my friends had ALL of the expansions, so we could get a nine-player game going. With eight people ona mega-map, the game is insanely fun, but SO time-consuming...

It is incomplete, but right now we are in the make treaties phase. England has already said something like "as soon as military component is built in, we will sent a fleet to attack South Africa."
Hugo Rune posted 05-29-99 12:06 PM ET
The URL doesn't work because there is no Http:// before it. Victor, post a new link.
Hugo Rune posted 05-29-99 12:07 PM ET
Oh, and why do the people in the Game Forum hate you so much? I just went over there for the first time in two weeks and it was full of "Hate Victor Gallis" topics.
Victor Galis posted 05-29-99 12:19 PM ET
Oh, right http://... try this
Victor Galis posted 05-29-99 12:21 PM ET
Hate Victor Topics:
Victor likes SMAC.
Victor defended SMAC (accused newbies of bashing it)
Victor obviously ahtes newbies (according to newbies)
Newbies flame Victor (1 thread per post Victor makes)

Victor is the on-line version of Supremacy the same as the old board game? I loved the playing the board game. That link you put in above is a dead end. Would please give me the address of the Supremacy web site?
JohnIII posted 05-30-99 04:34 AM ET
The link he posted to http://www.supremacy.planete.net/
isn't dead.

The game is not like the board game (or maybe, but on a much larger scale). When complete there will be roughly 400 players per faction drining the tanks, and conducting foreign policy, etc. I mean it a single player doesn't control a faction. It's like the real world, you have human subordinates.
Allod posted 05-30-99 01:20 PM ET
I'm in. (The mailing-thing solved itself, thanks anyway. The person to which it is adressed will know what I'm talking about.)
Soon DynaCorp will rule the world, not those puny factions. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Mcerion posted 05-30-99 03:23 PM ET
That link brings me to a blank page.

Allod: Which faction?
Me, I'm not sure if I'm going to join up just yet, but if I do, I'm leaning toward either the UK or Saudi Arabia. The UK has a better site, but it's annoying as heck to navigate on 800x600 since they disallowed scrollbars in the code- you have to kill the taskbar, navigation bars, etc., pretty much everything to be able to navigate. Saudi Arabia seems cool, but their website makes it look like a two-horse operation.
Allod posted 05-31-99 04:22 AM ET
USA.
Allod posted 05-31-99 08:04 AM ET
BTW, I'm always keen on learning new phrases - what's a two-horse operation?
Victor Galis posted 05-31-99 10:30 AM ET
I suggest the UK. Or if you really can't decide. Join MI-6 and spy on the Saudis (disguised as a Saudi). Come the UK really needs some good diplomats, army officers, etc. It would seem that they all hate us.
JohnIII posted 05-31-99 01:05 PM ET
I'm thinking of taking on a challenge, working for the USSR!
John III
Allod posted 05-31-99 01:21 PM ET
No, not everyone hates the UK. As member of DynaCorp I can assure you that we welcome every customer, especially from wealthy states like the UK.
Now, really, what does two-horse operation mean?
JohnIII posted 05-31-99 02:31 PM ET
Victor, I may join the UK, I still haven't decided.
John III
SnowFire posted 05-31-99 08:38 PM ET
I still haven't signed up yet, but that's slang for a very small operation. Actually, I know it more as a "one horse" operation rather than a two horse operation, but I suppose inflation affects small titles as well...
P.S. Also two-bit.

Ummmm...I can't load up supremacy. I've installed what my friend called 'the gay java thingy' but when I run sup.bat a little splash image comes up with 20% written at the top left hand corner. Then...NOTHING.
I wait 1 minute, NOTHING. 5 minues, NOTHING, 30 minutes, still NOTHING!!
End task, run again. NOTHING! Arrrrrggghhh...

Allod posted 06-01-99 06:49 AM ET
I had the same problem, but it has been solved already. Try again!
SF: Thanks.
jig posted 06-04-99 11:51 PM ET
Allod: It's been solved already?? Not for me! I still can't get it to work, no matter how long I wait. Could it have something to do with me using the international version of JRE?
