How to extend the retirement year.
« on: September 04, 2013, 05:18:04 pm »
A newb on 'polly just asked about this, and I've seen it a million times, but don't pay a lot of attention to that kind of tech stuff, so I don't remember where to even find the mention of it in the last week.

So, somebody please instruct me concisely, or just go over to ACS and tell Map Guy yourself - (don't try to recruit; I told the owners I wasn't doing that right now, and it would embarrass me if you did anything blatant.) 

Thanks.

Simple. Open up Alpha(x) (dependent if you play Alpha Centauri or Alien Crossfire) and search for 'normal ending year' in the #rules section.
Lowest 3 difficulty levels is 2600 (500 turns), higher 3 is 2500 (400 turns).

Do you play a custom faction with +9001 to everything?

As mind to body, so soul to spirit.
As death to the mortal, so failure to the immortal.
Such is the price of all ambition.

* Random quote

The prevalence of anoxic environments rich in organic material, combined with the presence of nitrated compounds has led to an astonishing variety of underground organisms which live in the absence of oxygen and 'breathe' nitrate. Likewise, the scarcity of carbon in the environment has forced plants to economize on its use. Thus, all our efforts to return carbon to the biosphere will encourage the native life to proliferate. Conversely, the huge quantities of nitrate in the soil will be heaven to human farmers.
