Gallius IV Discussion Board

My experience is only with deadlock 1. Did your enemy have citizens in their territory? Do citizens fight in deadlock 2 like they do on deadlock 1? Those citizens could kill off a lot of units. Troopers probably have higher military capabilities than scouts as well. Stronger units can kill several w...

This answer only pertains to Deadlock 1, could be different for deadlock 2 Food does not affect population growth at all. You can play Cyth without any food and still grow your population as fast as any other race except the Chch't. I posted the following elsewhere as part of a larger post: Populati...

Fuel depots are basically landing strips. Think of them as airports that you can't build units in. They are only useful to extend the range of your planes. It's a waste to build them unless you need to get to a territory out of the range of your airports. If you have ever gotten the warning that if ...

Resource & Military Production Looking at the following values, you can definitely see the value in getting level 2 buildings ASAP Numbers in parenthesis are number of workers Food & Wood 100% : 100% - Farm (8) 125% - 150% - Hydroponic Farm (6) 150% - 200% - Food Replicator (4) Iron & E...

P.S. Welcome to the board MaugTheInfirm!

The game can usually be won before this point.

I play boosted or supercharge. Usually with fast production (for quicker games) and either 7 or 10 city centers. I have beaten the game with every race at 100% difficulty though.

The Cyth are definitely the worst, as they lose 20% of you workforces effectiveness with no way to remedy the situation. I remember a few years back (I don't play Deadlock today as much as I did, that's not to say I love it any less), I played as the Cyth on 100% difficulty and built and defended 5...

"And lastly the Maug. ... On 100% difficulty, this is almost impossible to reach." I just played a 100% difficulty game as Maug using the settings wobombat mentions. Actually I'm still playing, but on turn 114 I have every square of the map except for a Tarth square without an army in it....

A few points/corrections here 1) You can still have a scandal even if you buy/sell items in an unpopulated territory. The scandal will randomly happen in another populated territory. 2) Avoiding building planes is a mistake, they are the most powerful units in the game 3) Transportation costs can be...
