Just testing
Published on November 15, 2007 By KzintiPatriarch In Metaverse

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 proverb

A 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!

I used the minors for selling tech (as you suggested), and of course conquering.

Did you build the Econ Cap? It seems to help, plus i have not broke 30K without at least 1 300% on each of my home world and second planet. (I use Korx homestar for the two PQ8 planets.)

I did in some of my games, but in others I ran out of money before I got Trade. Having some trouble with ARC too. I went in and modified the raceconfig file, changing the superability and homestar for the Yor, and not only did it trip the cheat flag, but it didnt actually change anything in the game! Still had super-isolationist and Iconia. Doesnt make any sense to me... So I deleted the modified file and renamed the original one back to the correct filename. With the forum search still all screwy, I cant find the info I'm looking for.

What did I do incorrectly? Perhaps I didnt modify the right file, because I did notice there is a raceconfig file in numerous locations...under the Dark Avatar, Metaverse, and other folders, etc...

You folks seem to have left a few food pens open. There seems to be a flurry of minor critter empires springing up around the metaverse. Please check the latches on your cages.

Vuk-

Yes we noticed this too...maybe there was a break-out from some of our hunting preserves. But this is a good thing, for without battle, and a variety of prey, the Kzinti would surely get bored.

Let them try, I feel like having lunch   

About the Economical Capital: I almost always build it during ZYW. It looks like I need to speeden up the process a bit more, buy earlier and opt more for long loans with the smallest weekly payment (counting that the whole game will be over in 40-50 weeks anyway). It depends hugely on the number of 1000bc anomalies found and any bonuses on your home planet, but speaking for myself when I run out of money in a ZYW it's usually because of lack of speed. The Econ Cap gives you just a few more weeks before you go in the red. I hardly ever made it to Trade; judging by the famous "how to achieve ZYW" posts in the Metaverse League 6 topic, it looks like economical improvements can almost be ignored, everything should go to speed and bashing power.

If it was not for the 12 turn limit on ending a game, map depending, the fastest i would have been able to win is March 15th. I always end on April 8th, always take the longest lease, never buy more than 4 labs and go from there.

The Econ cap is for your econ score, not for any funds in the game.

Believe it or not, that topic actually covers very little of how to achieve a 22K+ ZYW.

The trick is identifying what you need and what you do not need(And there is a great deal of things that you do not need, you'd actually be surprised).

I'm no expert ZYW'er(Neilo and Piz take that title), but I can atleast say I got down the first ZYW(yay me! lol) back in Round 3 or 2, I think.

The MVL write up on ZYW's barley scratches the surface...for a step by step guide on how to do a 32K ZYW game you would have to go over to the ToE forums. I have posted an AAR with screenshots on how to manage this high score game.

Oh....of course you would have to be a ToE member as this highly guarded info is in our private area....

I just cracked 25k with a ZYW today, and I'm sure I'll be able to increase that.

Well, Neilo TALKS alot about being evil, but in actuality he's a nice guy. Sorry Neilo, dont mean to damage your carefully crafted reputation.
