My "Bene Deux" game: large scattered(?), Terran Benevolent, 3 AIs on Godlike(!).
North of Earth, I find this tantalizing double-system. This is a collage of 4 pop-ups on top of the 5th one, by Paint Shop Pro cut-and-paste.
BTW, here's my Steam methodology for images. I dunno if this workflow is ideal; feedback welcome.
This forum automatically shrinks huge (1080p) JPEGs to a thumbnail, as shown above.
You can also post images from anywhere else on the net, e.g. if you already web-host them elsewhere. Just skip #1-8 and go directly to #9 with your own image URL. (I could have done that with my university account, but I want to brag my screenshots on Steam Community anyways, and no sense being redundant.)
One starbase to rule them all!
My 3 AIs are "Godlike" (highest setting). They kicked my butt in Power for about 80 turns, 2x to 3x ahead of me.
I'm catching up. Around turn 90, I finally surpassed Altarian and Iridium. Drengin's lead over me has shrunk from ~3x to ~1.6x.
GC2 "Genius" setting consisted of +100% economy (compared to the human player), and all AI algorithms. I don't know what GC3 "Godlike" entails, but it feels similar.
Around turn 110, I encounter Drengin. I slowly move ships to attack. He has a fleet of Defenders (missile + chaff).
Ergo: On Godlike, Drengin have out-researched me . (But ... I beat him on Approval)
Lol. The good old drengin, huge armies and somehow managing to pay for it all plus a few super weapons!
[Cute] Cultural influence hole of size 1 hex renders as perfect circle
Ignore the red text overlays. I get it now: it's not a bug, it's my (non-)Influence.
It could have popped into existence when I destroyed some Consulate tiles to build Missionary Centers.
Glimroy,
You can factor a quintic polynomial. What is not possible is to factor a general quintic polynomial with a finite number of algebraic manipulations. But it is possible to factor every non-constant complex polynomial into n complex roots.
Other than that, this is some good info. I like all the little diagrams in the pictures.
