We've pretty much been doing that since Turn 1.  GDI armour, anyone?  I don't think it's that big a deal.

Heck, most of my tech tree's indirectly cribbed from Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

Okay, I updated all your techs. Once they've been checked (Yeah, I must have made some mistake) I'll start working on the turn, which should be up by sunday.

Seems mostly cool.  What's Engineering a pre-req for?

Stuff like Huge Underground Complex and BFLG or Moon Mine. Larger defense (Maginot style) too. I should add that in the OP.

I ask again: does anyone with more money than thay feel like using want to donate to the "BIG FORKING GUN" Charity? Especially you, Morgan, you're stockholders would feel much more secure if their anti-theft warranty is backed by a giant lunar cannon.

Does it come with option of the payee (potentially) me to prevent it from firing on myself for an indefinite (i.e. forever) period of time?  And maybe basic rocket science.

I apologise, but I'm busy with the development of my own superweapon.

While I think of it Sheb, what techs, Pure Science and Applied, are prerequisite for the following:
Multi-Missiles
Cyborgs
Cyborg Commandos
Banshees
Stealth Tanks
Subterranian Flame Tanks
Obelisk of Light
Laser Turret
Mobile Battle Fortress
Plasma Mobile Battle Fortress
Amphibious Plasma Mobile Battle Fortress?

I think the only research goal I'm really giving away is the APMBF, as the rest are all from C&C TS. It's also most likely a very long term one.

EDIT: Also, I take it I'll need to do some research to be able to produce laser equipped ships and aircraft?

Tempting.  I may not be able to trust you not to use it on me afterwards, but we could do a technology exchange.  How much cash are you after?

I still say telekinesis isn't over powered. It has a lot of bonuses, yeah, but its a horde of small bonuses.

Archangel, you'd need to research a cyborg tech. (I guess cyborg commando would need cyborgs) multi-missile would need a balistic tech (and a lot of research into efficiency to make it cheap enough to be worth it). You'd need a turrets tech to make a laser version of it. Obelisk of Light would need another laser tech, specially adapted for large fighters. As for stealth, well, that'd be a tech too.

But you can start researching laser tanks, planes or ships immediately.


Johnfalcon, you don't know bout telekinesis' advantage, because it's not in the game. You don't even know if it's possible to research it.

It better be, because if RAM can get the Force, I sure as hell should be able to get telekinesis.

Which you don't know if RAM can get.  I believe Sheb once stated that pretty much impossible techs might feasibly be possible (e.g. Time Travel), but that the base score would be something like -20.  That is - you would need to spend at least 21 turns researching it before it became even 1% possible to get on your turn.

Of course, a Time Travel tech might potentially one-hit-win the game if you were able to construct your time machine in time.

It couldn't take forever, seeing as it would have stages of usefulness.
