Gallius IV Discussion Board

I still think they are the least powerful race while being the easiest to play. Agreed, out of all the races I think they are also the least fun to play, given that you don't have to worry about certain things as much, if at all. I generally play as the Humans or Re'Lu these days, occasionally as t...

And at the same time be playable in a lunch break, unlike most strategy games.

Twenty years ago today (August 14), Deadlock: Planetary Conquest was unleashed upon the world (according to GOG at least). Yes, it is extremely hard to fathom that two whole decades have elapsed since August 14, 1996. We have spent fifteen to twenty times longer playing the game than the original de...

then, other way i tried, is simply copy INSTALL folder onto my pc and start it. but, i have this problem that regardless of the resolution or screen size i set, the game now (not before, who knows what i changed?) runs in such a smaaaaall window, large as a youtube video for instance! this is reall...
