Sorry - i forgot to post the version being used. I wanted to edit the post yesterday :Pbut then Found out that my pc couldnt Auto-detect my Game drive anymore. Looks like i paid the ultimate Price
I Started the Game with 3.120 and constantly upgraded my version. Due to my huge Ship size i had to because i always got Memory Problems Beyond 250k Units. So i ended the Game with 3.172. The Most annoying Upgrade was When the hp of ai Command stations was increased to the Level of human Command stations. This happened around conquered Planet Number 50. From then on i had to Change my strategy radically.
If you are planning to play on a snake level be aware that logistic wise its a frikking nightmare
Two Things are memorable.
First Things was when i cleared 20 Enemy Planets and wanted to Move my Base forward. With Version 3.120 the ships sometimes accumulated for whatever reason on a Warp Point and waited there - but only if you didn't load the Game. So i saw such a Ship Ball and Moved my builders to the Front and began to build like hell. Guess what - the Game crashed while i was in the Middle of my Warp Point fortification. I think i had like 20 half built Electro turrets. When i loaded the last Auto Save i was rushed by the 20k ships waiting 2 Systems Away (but i survived it by using bait colony ships).
The Second Thing was when i Found the dysom sphere at planet 110 in my chain. 12k Enemy ships just sitting there and doing nothing.(i already Reported this Strange behaviour As a Bug) Anyway when i finally had consolidated my Position to push further already 22k of Mark v and iv were waiting - and they all were attacking everything which showed up on their System. But with the use of cloaked builders, fortresses acting As bait, a Radar Jammer mark ii and the excessive use of Lightning Torpedos this Situation was brought under Control.
Now i can only Hope that my Hardware seller can fix my harddrive
