You have dared to enter the lair of the most ferocious predators in the galaxy!It is the ulitmate destiny of the Kzinti to conquer the other civilizations of the galaxy, subjugate and enslave any who may prove useful to us, and devour the rest. The Fanged God has ordained that this is how it will be.In just 26 octals of days (7 months or so...Kzinti count in base 8), the Kzinti Empire rose from obscurity, to #1 on the Metaverse. With the blessings of the Fanged God, we have remained dominant for 100s more octals of days since that auspicious day. We leapt past the other empires, and our mighty domain now encompasses over 32 million more light years than the second most powerful empire. The most recent Galactic Map data shows that we have subjugated over 45% of the galaxy. Many warriors from the old and dying empires have joined us, to avoid being eaten along with the rest. We hunger to establish indefinite supremacy over all the inferior sentient species...
We have also been #1 on the AltMeta for over 3 years running. The Empire grows more powerful with each passing day as new conquests are won, and more warriors join us in our inevitable rise to rule the galaxy!The Kzinti are a species of bipedal space-faring feline predators, who love nothing more than conquest and battle. Created by sci-fi writer Larry Niven, the Kzinti have had many stories written about them, most notably in the Man-Kzin Wars series of books. They have also shown up in the Star Trek universe, and a number of other realities.
"Kzinti flesh has a very strong and pungent taste. The weak among us are devoured by their litter-mates within a few moons of birthing. Only the swiftest and most ferocious of us survive to their first naming-day. Those not fit to survive will never live to perpetuate their inferior bloodlines. This is the natural law of the galaxy." - Kzinti Warrior
"The meaning of life is the hot blood of your prey on your tongue, the meat that rends beneath your teeth, the corpse of your enemy left in the sun for the carrion eaters to finish, your defeated foe groveling in submission before you. That is what life is. We are the Kzinti, and we stronger, swifter, wiser, and more ferocious than any other race ever was or will be." - Kzinti philosopher
If your claws can grasp it, then it is rightfully yours. - Kzinti proverbA salute to all those heroic t'kzintar who have made this empire a resounding success. Our conquests continue and the galaxy will never know peace!Join the Kzinti in our quest for galactic dominance, or become our prey…

Sentient species taste better...
Yes, I have. Was a funny read. Nice pics - good work! btw, I was just joking with your motto hehe....
Yes, there is cap. Usually the range of a ship is shown as circle, but adding too much support will make a square out of it. I´ve always asked myself why this is so - why should the straight lines be caped and the diagonal ones not?

This guy has a strange motto "I will destroy the Kzinti". Hmmm, seems he ran into trouble back then....
Thanks Mumble. Both funny and ironic....I always liked the kitty pics.
Taken on holiday.
Hey Mumble. Love the video, haha!
@Maiden: Ah yes, the infamous Harborne. He was banned from the MV for cheating, by generating numerous fake accounts and the 3 characters that go with an account. He really had a bug up his a$$ about the Kzinti.
And in empire news...
Congratulations to our newest Hero, Maiden666! Your countless victories in the name of the Empire have earned this honor!
Oh yes! Maiden is just ratcheting up victories one after the other. I wonder what he will do once he gets his new rig!
EDIT: Where the hell did all the Avatars go?
First thing I do is *looooong holidays*
actually from *work* - last 2 years just had 2 days off, so I could do 3 months now in a row [*IF* my boss would find a suitable replacement for that time.....]
but I guess a week will just be fine for all the software re-install + casemoddings...
and by then I hope they'll get the MV fixed so I am able to create a new character, or, at least, set back #2, because #1 Agt. Smith's games hardly contribute any points anymore.....
Slacker. Never send a human to do a machine's job.
GZ to Smith for #1 AltMeta and the new MV medal.
Ya know, Jack - "Always one thing at a time", isn´t it?
Dethadder had metnioned in a different post that he didn't know that I still stop by now and then (I do); mostly its to see if there's any pressing questions that I can answer for someone, or any news on the GC front (ie Brad's dev post). Still waiting for that day in the future where KP and I can create the Klingon Empire in GC3
@maiden666, Thank You! BTW, I knew you where joking.
I hit a clich in my life support cap. I will post in my empire thread when I figure it out. No more than 5 Ultra Life Support and 5 Sensors Array (IV) plus 6 Stellar Engines on Your Survey Ships.

Nice setup. I'm going to give it a try next time I boot up GC2.
BTW what´s a "Stellar Engine"?
I think it's Terran Alliance specific, it's after hyperwarp on the terran tree. That's if my memory serves me correctly.
The prodigal son returns.
and just in time!!!!!
Wow, SS! I though you had fallen into a black hole. Welcome back! Be sure to stop in at the Kzinti forums at the COore.
Nah...it's a long story, I'll tell you later.
Yeah, I actually forgot my username there, and took an hour or so to remember it
@Maiden666
It is a Warp Engine use by Terran in TA but I trade for it when I take over thier planets in the game.
On my post I have a 8 engine Survey Ship picture. I like to park next to 16 Military Base Arrays for a turn then see how far goes on the map on the next turn.
I see stardock the space gnomes fix the avatars and now have my pictures back. Good Job you little guys.
Is anybody esle having Germlins Out Of Memory problems. It seems that a saved game is not the same after a patch updated it.
Good Hunting
I wouldn't update the application during a game. There are alot of posts here around from people who exactly did that and couldn't get that savegame to play again....
BTW yesterday I ran over post here about a sensor-range cap, 15 or 16 parsecs is max possible FYI
Could someone give me directions to the core please?
Here is the link to the Galactic Core.
thanx, i've joined but i have to wait for the validation code to come through.
