So, how much have you conquered, a screenshot would be nice too (shift command and 4 in OS9) Anyways, heres mine:

I managed to conquer every system except for the Rebel ones, before I got sick of fighting and stoppped. But, my brother actually did conquer the entire galaxy. It's looks pretty cool when the entire map is green, but it does get tiresome when everybody in the game is trying to kill you for it.

Fascism : You have two cows. You give all the milk to the government and the government sells it. 4. Nazism : You have two cows. The government shoots you and takes both cows. 5. Anarchism : You have two cows. Keep both of the cows, shoot the government agent and steal another cow. 6. Capitalism : You have two cows. Sell one cow and buy a bull. 7. Surrealism : You have two giraffes. The government makes you take harmonica lessons.
Everything with the exception of the near-impossibles (Earth, Mars, Luna, Stardock Alpha, and Ruby).
** Beware: Engine Limitation Exploitation Ahead **
There are a few tricks one can use for planitary domination. For example, you can exploit a bug involving the ships-in-system limit. Deploying enough fighters while having enough enemies on-screen prevents any planet from deploying it's fleet. If I remember correctly, a single ship will be deployed which you should be able to easily destroy.
According to the EV bible: MaxShipsInSystem: 36
Secure yourself a Cruiser and 4 Cruiser level escorts. Pull them away from the center of a system. Launch your fighters. Head back to the center of the system and locate a cruiser-level enemy. Attack it and let your escorts launch their fighters.
6 escorts + 24 fighters = 30 + Player + 6 fighters (hawks included) = 37. This should be more than enough to break the limit. Keep in mind, you need an enemy ship around to cause your escorts to launch their fighters.
I Know how hard it can be to obtain 6 cruisers for escorts preventing you from reaching the in-system ship count you need. Try attacking enemy cruisers or carriers. Their deployed ships count just as much as yours.
Plugin note: EVGE (and various other plugins) is notorious for this tactic. The Galaxy Destroyer, Confed base ship, Rebel carrier, and Polaris Heavy Cruiser all have an incredible fighter capacity.

And if you'll notice, the green circles go over the text, instead of under.
I did it in a few seconds, I could have done a better job.
:redface: I havn't even discovered the whole galixy yet. :redface: Now this really really really really embarrases me, :redface: but, how do you post it on here?

If you mean post a screen shot of your map, then upload it to the web and use the {img}<image url>{/img}, using brackets instead of { and }.
Well disco most people havn't.

On what do you base that assumption? Escape Velocity has been on the market for so long that the majority of its users have already mastered it.
I meant Newbees sorry for not clearing that out.

Now, now. It's not nice to call people newbies.
Let me try that again. This will probably take several tries. <file:///Indigo/Users/andrew/Documents/EV-Map> ------------------ That wedge of cheese can't hurt anyone! So don't dread it - it even says not to
OK, this is making me feel stupid, but will someone give me a very precise walkthrough for how to make images from the point where you have the icon in your folder on the desktop? :redface: :redface: :redface: :redface: :redface:
Whoa let me check something for myself.

What are you checking?
Does anyone know how to turn HTML on because I know HTML and would like to show you how to do it in HTML
I don't know how to do that, so is it more hard to tell me how to do that or give me a walkthrough on how to do it?
What do you mean by not just for me? Ofcourse its not but some people don't know how to use it.
