I am weak and just playing on Talent. Giving up on my game as I'm just getting missile spammed to death, heh. I'll give it another run with Santiago and try to at least get a continent to myself.
Got stomped in my SMAC game, my fault for slacking on military research (and not subjugating my neighbours). Was interesting to see the missile abuse the Hive unleashed on me, though.
I guess I'll have to L2P again or at the least re-read the excellent manual to brush up on things.
Reading The Second World War by Keegan, but eh, nothing I didn't know. Had meant to finish Caliban's War before Abbadon's Gate comes out but not likely, might just be a couple of days late.
