Playing styles
I found it interesting the other day when my 9/10 year old cousin started playing my SMAC, he seemed indifferent to commiting atrocities and would sign and break treaties willy-nilly, he said to me: "Have you ever played Red Alert 2? It's really similar to this." I never saw it that way, I've always seen these games as a build and discover (tech-wise) game.
Is this just me?

Thats what I've been doing lately. I guess I have the atrocity bug or something. I do them as soon as I can. It all started one day when I was minding my own business beating up on Miriam when Lal called me up and wanted some tech. So I say sure if you give me some too and he said that he couldn't trust me with his tech. So I'm like quit wasting my time. Next thing I know one of his units wonders into my territory and I ask him to leave and he say we shall see whose terriory this is and comes up with planes and missiles attacking my cities. So I gear up with the gas and start letting loose. I just didn't take his bases I exterminated them. Now I'm like Human rights, we don't need no stinking Human Rights.

Hmmm, no human rights eh? SOUNDS FUN!!
I suppose you could play the game a bit like RA2 (esp. if Miriam on citizen), funny was tho, he chose UoP, and after careful deliberation too!
Ho-hum, 9 year olds eh?
