Indeed that and the "why are some games not available for download" response...
That being said, I'm amazed at the patience of some people here who keep answering nicely, e.g. The Fifth Horseman :thumbs:

What I linked you to was a tutorial for beginners.
You didn't bother to read it, did you?

If I remember well, you have special slots for your planetary construction.

It's alright, I figured it out in the end, you have to build them on the left hand side of the screen, in space.

OMG, I just played this game for 6 hours straight without realizing it. I only stopped because I was ordered to go to bed. This has to be one of the best games EVER :w00t: .

In fact, this game is not that great. I played it again, and again I been disapointed.

If only I could build a bigger fleet than only 2 ships... But no! The computer just flood me until I can't do anything about it (even with several missiles at the same planet) and conquer my planets one by one...

And the AI patch is not good either... All it does is make the computer "biased" diplomatically VS you, so they'll all end up at war with you no matter what.

I voted for a 3 on 5 on the site. I would rather play MOO. :not_ok:
