Just wondering if there was a concise list of the best weapons in the stock 1.74 game? I have Warp weapons and such but I wonder which areas are actually the best to research in other people's opinions?

New Crimson Concept Mod version 3.0 is out day. Here's what new:
------------------------------
-Pod Missile
A missile component that is tolled outside the ship. To create this effect the component has very a reload time, zero tonnage size, and each missile
slow down the ship more.

-Plague Spreader
Spreads plague from planet to planet with the Ai understanding and reacting to the new event.

-Facilities size changes
To make facilities more realistic in the game. Note that nothing else was change because I did not want to slow down the pace any.

-Commercial Mount
Create a lower quality weapon for cheap of all direct fire and Point Defense components. This represent the difference in military , ei standard, products and Commercial products.

Hi, me and my friend are using the unnamed ai mod and we are fully patched for SE5, and we've been trying to play our game but we're having serious problems with our alliances. Our games is a simultaneous game played on different computers, played by email. It started out with me making an alliance with a computer, and my friend making an alliance with another computer, but we both realized they weren't worth it and both left them. However, in a couple turns my friend along with 5 other computers all randomly joined my friend's alliance again, though he never agreed to join it. He left the alliance because it wouldn't have been fair or fun if he had almost all the computers on his side, and since almost all the computers were allied we decided to ally and try to get the remaining computers. Once we were allied I proposed that we add more computers and he was going to vote on it the next turn, but we both randomly left the alliance, though neither of us tried or wanted to. So we tried to ally again, but this time we got placed in the alliance we made, but that didn't even matter because we both got put in my old alliance with the computer i allied with a while ago on the same turn, and the alliance we have with me, my friend and the computer overrode the alliance with just me and my friend, though both were still on the empire screen. So we decided we were going to invite the remaining computers, we proposed it and he was going to vote on it next turn, however before he could we both were kicked out of our alliance with the one computer, but he was placed into the alliance that had most the computers in it again, while i wasn't in any alliance (except the second one we made together, we were both still in it but it didn't matter because it wasn't actually treating us like we were in it)

Grudge 3 is now open for signups on PBW. We'll be using Balance Mod for this scenario. Please read the victory conditions carefully!

Every player will be given a secret enemy. If your secret enemy is still "alive" when the game ends, you lose. You also lose if your empire is not "alive" when the game ends (defined below). The game will end when all surviving players agree to end it. Therefore it is possible for multiple players to win. More details and definitions are below.
