Post if you're not a bot! (And how did you find us?)

Hoo ha!  Always a thrill to meet another SMACer!

I'm not a bot.

Please don't go. The drones need you. They look up to you.

[Buster's Uncle]

Dunno.  You guys look mighty shiny to me...

We're toast(er).

You're in a jam.

Ahoy, I'm actually not just new to these forums but to Alpha Centauri.  I picked it up on GOG recently, thus far I've only played one game at citizen level (and as the Spartans to boot) to get accustomed to the interface and familiarize myself a bit with the interface and research tree, and I've been trying to find out more about the strategies people have developed and content they've developed for the game, which has lead me here as it seems to be the most active place when it comes to SMAC.

Welcome to AC2, Paramatter!  One thing to do for starters is go to our mirror of the old Firaxis AC site and check the Strategy page.  That's a good collection of starting tips.

There also a few strategy guides in this forum as well!

Hey everybody!

I'm a long-time Alpha Centauri fan and player. I think I got it for free with a new computer in about 2001, and I've been playing it (with occasional breaks) ever since. I used to be active on Apolyton under the same name, about ten years (!) ago. As you can imagine, I was very excited to discover this site; my job and studying keeps me pretty busy, so I can't promise I'll always be super-active here, but I'm eager to check out what you guys have been up to.

[Buster's Uncle]

Hail to the chief!

How did you find us?

[Mr. President]

Thanks!

When I pick up Alpha Centauri again after a break, I usually go online and check if there's been any update in terms of scenarios, unofficial patches, and other fan content. I happened to look at the Apolyton forum, and one of your posts was one of the recently active threads in AC-General.

And I see that you're looking around in Downloads - I think you'll find some good stuff.

 I have played alpha centauri on and off for some years, and enjoyed it so much that i got the expansion. It is great to see that other people still enjoy this game as well. I am pretty naive when it comes to multiplayer (really no one to play with ), but i look forward to playing a game with you guys!
