Wow, I've never had a vote for Supreme Leader go so bad. Usually if you're not even in contention, you can sway at least 1 other faction to say "hell no!"

But I've never had it where everyone says, yes...but I have heard that you can still refuse and end up taking everyone else on. I say stock up on planet busters at that point.

Avoiding this issue is pretty easy. All you need to do is ensure you have one-quarter of the votes. If this is a struggle, you should pick a larger faction and do probe crap to them and try to frame the vote leader. Even if you get caught a time or two it still works if you succeed a few times. You might even trigger a war. Note that doing the probe activities against a faction that hates you already means you don't lose much if the framing fails

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I've been on read-only. I uninstalled SMAC and dropped out of all my PBEMs.

I'm thinking I might be able to risk a game at the weekend...

NOOOO! Don't do it, Jams!!!!! Remember, everyday you must say to yourself: "today I won't play SMAC". If you persevere, you will succeed. And then this horrible thing won't steal your life from you again.

Never forget the wise words: "Stay away from SMAC one day at a time." - SMACaholics Anonymous.

Easiest thing to do when you're planning to play a SP game is to remember the eventual outcome :
you win.
So lets try it without choppers
you win
without choppers and crawlers
you win
urgh without choppers, crawlers and formers ?
you win
argh come on without choppers, crawlers, formers, attack units and only 1 base
you win
*sigh*

I actually have to make an effort to play SP games these days and i don't have much time to keep in alot of MP games at any one time where i've actually got to put some thought into what i'm doing

Have you tried mapsize 256x320, 70-90 % sea, strong erosion, abundant, dense, no scatt and not building sea colonies ?

It can give some interesting starting maps.

Tired of ads?

Interesting :P my style where i've just gotta click turn complete for 50 years heh. Still too easy though once i got WP, and raised myself a few tiles for more bases and then built myself a continent.

Agreed, those 50 or so Enter hits are a bit boring . Much also depends on 2107. If Marr & Co ends on bad sites there isn't much fun.

Building that continent I think is half the fun - knocking out the opponents is the chocolate on top of the cake
