athonian Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 If i have a top resource in the 400 range and several others... and i've built facilities according to a common formula for building... should i build shipyards on my h-world? or should i find a different crappy resource-yield world for that purpose and devote my h-world to artful and graceful buildings....

orin Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Since your major stuff is on you HW build more yards... + more slips. 3 slips would be good with mabe 50 or so more yards then when you need the ships fast (and have the parts) you can get out a small fleet fast... if only 1 slip... 1 ship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Not so. Build religious and/or military installations with the leftovers (you already built one of each science installation, right? RIGHT?). That way you get ongoing bonuses and when you suddenly need a lot of ships you DISM those things and CON shipyards. You should probably have a few more slips right now, though.

hobknob Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Build your ships where ever you build your materials. Build as many slips as you need when ever you need them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athonian Posted October 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 hmmm good options.... i like them all. well i make 653 population per turn... i can probably get them all on on the good ol homeworld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospective Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Krelnett, Is one of each science station sufficient to get bonuses? Or, if you build more, do the bounses increase accordingly? Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The homeworld is the best spot. You might want to save your off-world shipyard project for a system that acts as a 'forward base' - the location of which, will depend on your strategic situation. Building installations like temples, admin centers etc: my calculations show that it only pays off too invest in maxing these out after you've accumulated a lot of leaders to increase your bonuses. Would you agree Krelnett? About turn 40 or so? As for your sig - Phasedragon (Ed Mooney ) has been under pressure to change his sig for over a year.....it hasn't changed much :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobknob Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Colorful Sigs are a different issue than lots of graphics which just slow down load times and clog up caches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athonian Posted October 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 a bit better? i do try and make them small... if they are still problematic i can cut it down... in fact yeah i will... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 We just sent in turn 24 and have seen plenty of help from our cathedrals. Then again, we have a HUGE number of religious leaders, too. Even small percentages add up quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternusIV Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 I guess the sig pics are pretty big :lol: I never considered load times. Good point. The sig pics are cool and in-spirit though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athonian Posted October 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 i kinda based my empire around sciences and exploration... so somehow i doubt i'l be getting the same sort of bonuses =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
