I got to 116% before I ended my term. Not re-elected.

How do you become a faction VIP? I'm at 106% with one arleady...

Thanks a lot, that's what I was looking for. The description was a little confusing, so I never bothered to look at it twice... go figure.

Thanks for the quick response! Maybe add a toggle in options to get rid of auto-centering whenever I have a module selected. Sometimes I am trying to aim at somethign far away, then my screen suddenly centers to the ship, making me have to scroll ovdr to see the target again.

Can you please add seperate link buttons for cannon types? one for missile, one for torpedoes, one for mines, one for rockets, and keep the "all cannons" link. This would make the game much more enjoyable, as I wouldln't feel like I have to choose between a more convenient shoot all over kill attack, and a pause and tediously aim each of my 20 cannons at 6 different targets approach. I would be able to torpedo the large ship, rocket and/or missile at small ships, and launch mines at enemies closing in at a distance. I think this would immensely improve the experience, giving it a much more smooth motion.

So... I was moving my 100 yak pasture to another location; While my gnomes were re-pasturing them, I noticed that once in awhile, a couple of gnomes would fight over trying to pasture the same animal, putting them in a endless back and forth loop. Another instance was one of my gnomes bringing an animal to be slaughtered and fighting over the same animal with someone trying to pasture it.

i'm in my first summer, and the workshops for trinkets n stuff to sell seemed like they were not working properly. On further inspection, I noticed that all of the statuettes/puzzleboxes/coins etc were all listed under the skill "stone carving." Once I assigned all of my gnomes to use all skills, the shops were then put into work. Does anyone notice this?

the music does not play consistently, I get to listen to a tune and then there's several minutes of silence. This impacts the immersion/enjoyment a bit.

This is only misssing multiplayer. The larger map sizes gives the game a much more strategic feel and play style. On 64x64 I often find my self managing multiple war fronts, exploiting weak spots in the enemy defense line to capture their resources and cripple their economy to halt resistance. With larger maps and a potentially larger economy, the trade system's value and importance is greatly multiplied. I often finish 16 player 64x64 games with around 5-6 millions resources traded (on a 5 to 1 ratio). Do I want to expand into the neutral territory to my NW for easy resources, or should I crush the weak enemy to the NE before they get iron, or form a defense against a large empire to the East? Strategically placing and removing high value resource towers to keep the production cost low allows me to continually expand my front lines w/o bogging down my economy with high costs. If you couldn't tell, I really enjoy the new map sizes.

Can you include larger maps? Or maybe even multiplayer? This would be killer with multiplayer available. If anything, adding larger map sizes beyond 36x36 would be great. Right now, it doesn't take me too long to beat the 36x36 with 16 players. Maybe I'm missing something? Again, I would like to say that this game rocks, but once you have reached the top, there isn't a lot of replay value. Shame, as this has such potential for competetive play.
