    Firstly, I swore they said Jesus. And that is the chant I say it is, cause it's way funnier.

    Seconldy, about university. First people I came in contact with. Blew up their capital, they threatened me, and then surrendered handing me four new techs and all their money.

    Suck on that!

    Man I lost all my good screenshots of Miriam surrendering to me

    I am not Miriam, I am Patriarch Jedah of the Inquisition of Jesus.

    And yeah, I think I'm done for the day, not because of the game itself, but I work in a couple hours and I feel if I keep going I may end up late.

    The game isn't the perfect thing Pike may have made it out to be, but it's flaws are all pretty small. More then with the 6$ off GoG.

    Master of Orion 2 is still better.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    My basic verdict on the game is your joy playing it is likely going to be directly proportional to your joy of Strategy games in general.

    You hate Strategy, this game will do nothing for you.

    Your so-so on strategy like me, you'll get a fair amount of enjoyment like me.

    You adore strategy, you will love the hell out of this.


    Unless your skyblade, but who really listens to that guy?

    This coming from the guy who doesn't like Fire Emblem.

    Besides, I never said SMAC isn't a great game. Just that it's not the best strategy game out there.

    I personally feel that SMAC is better but I really can't judge anyone for preferring MoO2. Either one at the top of the 4X strategy list (Civ IV as well) is fine by me.

    Inspired to start up a new game, I've changed things up from my usual stance of militaristic conquest and despotism and am playing as Einstein of the University. My settlements thus far being Science!, Ocean Science!, and Action Science!. Unsurprisingly, just about everyone has waged vendetta on me at some point and I've been spending more time defending myself than researching.

    Also unsurprising, Morgan is in dead last followed by Miriam and her religious nut bags.
