Unfortunately I am on a crappy 56K modem and don't have time to DL Bc3K. So I will just have to wait for BCM to ship and all the tutorials to come out of the woodworks. Another dumb question, can you create new races? Thanks.

Cool! Thanks. Will this be (generally) the same for GBSII? Sorry for the newbie question.

Example: I am playing as a commander for Side A. Side A is at peace with Side B. I decide I want some action, so I go with a few Battlecruisers and attack an outpost belonging to Side B. I understand that I will be attacked on site if I ever come back to Side B's territory, but is it possible to make Side B declare "war" on Side A and have them start launching atacks? Thanks. Hope this helps clarify.

IS it possible to create a functional dipomatic state that has fluxes, either scripted or random. this might sound confusing, and if it does, I wil try to clarify.

Will it be possible to mod the game to include something like a defined event/diplomacy random event type thing? What I mean is that at some point, there is a screwup and side one fires on side two, and therefor, game diplomacy shifts and the two go to war? Would this be possible? EDIT: Sorry, this should go in the GBS section, but we were on topic... [ 08-26-2001: Message edited by: rhett ]

No, I have the US version and it is great! I have only had one bug and it crashed the game (not the PC). If you like stratagy perhaps try to get a different CD.

Babylon 5 is the NUMBER 1 thing that I think of when someone says Sierra. I guess we have some B5 fans here?

Sierra Sucks. Thats all I can say.

EB has exclusive rights to selling BCM for the first three months (it will be in EBGAMES stores or online) and then (I think) it will be sold to generic stores (i.e. Best Buy, ext.) Hope this helps. If you have an EB locally, you can pick it up there.

YES! Printed manuals are the best! (IMHO)

I say a really cool thing the AI did to me in TA. I was playing one of the maps against 3 AI players (the lave map with 4 corners and only one access route to each. So I build up MAJOR defenses at my opening. I was kicking ass against my enemies, when all of a sudden one of the commanders moves into the middle of my defenses, gets killed, and sends most of my defense systems to hell. It was really cool. (I had it set so that killing a commander wouldn't end game) I dont know if it was a fluke or what. I ended up winning because I had a backup system in place.

I will do. Thanks for the info.

Not true (according to the FAQ). If you die, you will lose only whats on you. However, there will be a death limit and once you cross it, you must start over.

That would be seriously bad.

Cool. Thanks alot.

I was wondering if I could use the BCM box picture located on this site for a link to here (bc3000ad.com) when I upload a mod site for BCM. I apologize for asking this (assuming it has been asked before).

Thanks LordDavid.

I'm going off on a side question, so apologies ahead of time: Will there be some form of rudimentry multiplayer released in a patch after BCM ships? Or is multiplayer going to be held of completely untill GCO? Thanks. BTW, I think a news service would add ALOT of deapth to the game. It would be cool.

Sh*t out of luck, I think

quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: btw, in the future, all such topics belong in here, not in the New Commanders forum. Ok. Will do.

Yes I meant BCM. I think I will get some help and try. We're going to try to mod the whole game (abitious, stupid, and arrogant ). I think a team is going to get together. We'll see...
