Meh. I feel like conquering the world.

How shall it be done? By Skyfleets (I JUST unlocked them :D) or by nuking everyone to death?

Or both?

We've reached the point where my game altering mods take effect. Neutronium Plate, Antimatter Reactive, and Stasis Armor have massively increased Defensive Values (12/16/24), while the newfangled Hypometric Weapon has an 40 offensive value.

Oh yeah, I neutered helicopters. They are cheaper but shorter ranged needlejets... Otherwise I'd just run everyone over with swarms of Shard Copters.
As mind to body, so soul to spirit.
As death to the mortal, so failure to the immortal.
Such is the price of all ambition.

Again, I guess nukes would be flashier (ha!)

People, give this beardy-man some feedback!

Why don't I see you in the Modding forum more?

The aforementioned extreme busy-ness.

I am not in a safe position. I need to set up and ensure my future financial security and to meet my goals- I am not someone like BU who can afford to spend more than a few hours/week on games.

I don't think you are an hyperelite oligarch, and even then, you'd probably have actually done something for your money.

I'm just not able to devote as much time as I'd like to games.

Even when I do have time for games, my crew tends to play other games.

...I actually AM a bit rich, but I spend more time on the forum and forum business than on games.  AC2 is my actual main hobby, much as I love SMAC(X)...

Still haven't received any other feedback. But this has dragged on long enough- just as the game was getting fun too...

And so, Provost Zak was sitting in his Science Chair, wondering how he would overcome his opponents.

He could just run them over with his newfangled Skybases, or swarm them with his Hovertanks... Maybe win by Voting himself as Supreme Commander of the world... Or just buying the entire energy market... Perhaps even turning himself into a God... but a little voice on his shoulder, that sounded like a certain Uncle wanted to use Planetbusters.

He waited and waited for another voice- but he heard nothing... Still, his heart was heavy, when:

"Provost! According to this theory, it is possible to create an alternate timeline... A 'save point', if you will."



I see. What will we need to accomplish this?

"A megaproject that can warp space-time itself... a Certain Scientific Railgun Magical Index Singularity Inductor is necessary."

And we can't build multiple of these...?

"Even if we could IRON MAN makes multiple saves a hassle I mean, no, we can't."

Soon...



Then



"Are you ready Provost?"

Why is the interface so fishy? It says, save game... This is like an game inside a game insi-

*Bzzt*

"Are you ready Provost?"

I have this strange sense of deja vu...

"The time window is 30 seconds, Provost!"

Oh, damn it.

I mean, there is no point in updating if there is 0 interest in my update, but...

Here is a preview, of Next Time, on Yu-gi-oh

I park in Who's Online a lot of the time; I assure you that people are just being lazy about commenting.  They are checking this out.

AARs tend to do that. They bring A LOT of views even from google. Much more so than LPs on youtube because you can read an AAR at work on your phone and still be productive.

Yep. You'll notice I've had them there since... Page 1, Year 2267.

Yeah, Baikonur is cranking out about 400 and change Minerals/Turn. I've already had to launch Solar Shades.

This means both my core cities can make A Nuke A Turn™, despite being on Transcend Difficulty.
