1>sci:2 tax:0
2>AC:0 Conquest:2

I prefer to get discover improvements that increase tax flow. I always have my games set on Bloodlust

2>AC:2 Conquest:2

Generally set out for AC, but sometimes get diverted into conquer games. Decision comes at Fundamentalism time. If I'm far enough ahead in cities, and at least even in science, then on to AC. Otherwise, go to fundamentalism and take 'em out.

Science:8 Taxes:0
AC:5 Comquest:3

I always start out aiming for AC, but if it's not going well I'll switch to conquest.

DaveV · January 5, 2001, 10:08

Science:9 Taxes:0
Does anyone detect a trend here? Although I will shift to taxes in the late game when I have "enough" techs.
AC:5 Conquest:4

AC:7 Conquest:4

Go to democracy VERY SOON when every city has marketplace, or I built happiness Wonders. Lux is set at 20% fixed! 8 out of 10 of games it's off to AC, even though world conquest is easy because of advanced tech. But conquest?? Very messy for me!

Bohlen · January 5, 2001, 12:54

Science:12 Taxes:0
AC:8 Conquest:4

A vote for AC here, but it really depends on what type of starting location I get and what type of mood I'm in.

War4ever · January 5, 2001, 14:51

Early game science, mid game luxuries, end game taxes, especially in MP, in SP science pretty much all the way.

Uh, i like conquest, not interested too much about the moon. As long as its there and the tides still work, i can surf and i am happy

Now, when i play SMAC after a CIV game, then for the sake of realism, i build the spaceship, does this make sense

Smokey tha nuke man · January 5, 2001, 17:09

uhhhh..........
does that count as a vote for other? are you even voting. anyway, here's a new question. (you can vote on this even if you voted on the previous two.)

have you ever been in a world nuclear war wit all 7 tribes nuking each other. i did, and it was funny. (it doesn't matter if it was single player or multi player)

Yes, it was cool (or just type 1): 1
Yes, and it sucked (2):0
No, but it sounds cool (3):0
No, it sounds like it would toatly suck(4):0

Smokey tha nuke man · January 5, 2001, 17:10

oh, yeah, and this is the last day to vote on the first 2 q's. after, don't bother voting on them.

Vlad Antlerkov · January 5, 2001, 17:37

Science:13 Taxes:0
AC:9 Conquest:4

No, I haven't been in such a situation, but it actually does sound fun

so:

(1) 1 (2) 0 (3) 1 (4) 0 (or something like that)

jcarkey · January 5, 2001, 18:02

(1)1 (2)0 (3)2 (4)0

smokes that was my answer, and how i plan my distribution....... i could abstain from the vote if its too complicated for you

Never had all civs with nukes, i bet that would get ugly real quick though

Maelhavok · January 5, 2001, 23:29

Science: 12 Taxes: 1

AC: 9 Conquest: 5

I voted for taxes but its science for gl and sol then taxes,fundy,and my own personal oyster.

Crustacian · January 6, 2001, 04:39

Depends on who I am playing against, if they are a bigtime tech stealer or not. Then if your science is up their gold is up and just steal what they need.

My vote is:
science
AC

But I totaly tax the people at several points in the game for rush building, and there is nothing like a good all out war once in awhile!
