Re: The Last Federation

Well, honestly, I still haven't won a game. Whenever I get two races not only to like eachother and to like me, a third race comes and attacks one of them, and it's all shot from there. I've thoroughly enjoyed huge space battles, myself, though. They're challenging, and there's a lot of variety; I m...

Re: The Last Federation

My first impression was a very polished, complex strategy which seems like what would happen if you put Crusader Kings into space, and added more variety. Not to mention a wonderful soundtrack, delightful art, and have I stressed enough how polished the interface feels? It's very intuitive. Love it,...

Re: What's your End-Game Fantasy?

I'm thinking a 300-block by 300-block network of active millstones. Oooh, with a bed in the middle!

But honestly, castle in the sky. Out above the water, with a grand staircase going up it, pillars. Mmmhm.

BTW Screenshot/Clip Montage

Hey guys! I wanted to celebrate all of the things to come with a BTW Screenshot and/or Clip Montage! I've been doing video editing for a bit, I have some experience, and I'd love to put everyone's best moments together into one ~3-5 minute video. Anyone who's interested in being involved, feel free ...

Well, I'm pretty sure whatever you draw on the map will be overwritten anyway once you return to the area, right?

Re: Soul Flux: What is it? [speculative lore]

They might be trying to build a new world seed -- perhaps something that can so potently bind souls that the resulting density can then be erupted into a new universe for themselves, and they are trying to use the nether as storage, but kind of don't care about the demonic heat that results from the...

Re: What makes you get ballsy?

For no good reason, mountaintops. The sun could be setting, when I'm supposed to be turning my boat aboutface and going to my safety hole, but then that one chunk spawns, and I see a 200 block high cliff, and I just wanna climb it. For no good reason at all XD

Re: Automating squid is so easy i did it by accident.

Lol, yeah. I tend to install my mill stones near bodies of water, and I was surprised to find that, from my small lake, I could get 22 ink/20 minutes. They were swimming into the channel that led to my collection system, and amazingly so, the lake was just the right size that loads would spawn there...

So she gathered the villagers from many villages, had them abandon their homes, and travel to a place where the...
