I see one of you remains capable of detecting an affront to simple human decency.

It was merely a factual observation, not a value judgment.

That said, the EMP train as described would be at least 100 times more dangerous to the player than the Nuclear Eye.

I'm going to say that I would actually turn on Astro Trains if they were like that.  It'd add more to my pain, but it would be entirely worth it.

Btw: first post, absolutely fantastic game.  I'm a bit sad that I only got it when it was on sale.

Translocator Train - Fire Translocation shots.  For more fun, allow them to send ships to other systems.  For even more fun, allow them to teleport turrets, too.

You have a sick idea of fun.

Hm I should try to get back into DF. Has the UI improved any recently?

   Where would you EVER get such an evil idea as that?!  No, it hasn't.

Installer's gotten a lot kinder, though.  Lookup the lazy newb pack.

Astrotrains with EMPs?!

How about Astrotrains that pick up Mark Vs from the AI homeworlds and start dropping them off at random 'stations?'

As already stated, most certainly not.   Still takes the cake as one of the deepest games I've ever played.  I was sold the moment my (ex) girlfriend, as named in the game, dismantled a platform while standing on the wrong side - plummeting 20 stories or so into a cavern.

I honestly haven't played enough AI War to judge the units in this topic, either.  I've only logged ~20 hours or so, so far, and I feel like I've barely seen half the units.

Welcome to the forums, and the game   The forums aren't nearly so focused on your complete destruction as the game is, thankfully.

I'm not so sure, if my guess is correct, I'd say some of these posts are geared towards furthering my complete destruction in the game.

Whether that is a bad thing is another subject to speak of entirely.

+1 for the dev interaction and support.  I've been browsing for a while now and I appreciate developers who take the time out and respond to people - especially just simple interaction on a friendly level.  Endless Space was the only other game I've seen to do that well in recent times.

I just thought that if the UI got better, more people would be able to experience FUN easier!
