Okay. So I just now finished watching a special on Freemasons on the National Geographic channel. It was typical history channel stuff about the weird theories that surround the masonic lodges, with things brought down to earth and some masons showing up as talking heads to bash some of the sillier nonsense. At the end of the special, after teasing us with it for the entire damn hour, they show some footage of a masonic ceremony (captured with permission) inducting a new grand master to lead a lodge.

While the footage is playing, the documentary producers put this grandiose song in the background. When I heard it, I nearly fell over laughing. It's one of the tracks from Space Empires 5! You know, the determined war song with the chorus going "AHHHHH...EEEE...OOOOO...AH EEEE..." and so forth. he same exact song!

Does the Nueral net work?

The sheild imploder says it does no special damage but in the simulator knocks out 200-400 shield points with one shot. Is this just a description error?

On another note. In ground combat all the enemy troops vanished and the weapons platform "sprouted" legs and ran away. This doesn't happen in the simulator. (balanced mod/v 1.66)

Another question: what happens if I have ground troops in a standoff on an enemy colony and we renew a peace treaty. Do they become his. That's silly.
