    PA + orchestral music = honey + herring = crap

    As mentioned, orchestral is not automatically classical. The Total Annihilation score was a brilliant piece of work, and was extremely memorable in a...

    Fan Fiction and Roleplaying subforum?

    I rather like games with a barebones story - it leaves that much more room for imagination, which tends to result is a shift to the good side of...

    Playing on Graviational fields?

    Galactic Annihilation has a certain ring to it... and Universal Annihilation can't be far behind that. I figure by that point we'll be hurling...

    Feel Good Story

    I started with TA at the same time I started with my first post Windows 3.11 PC, when I was about 13 or so. A family friend had specced and built the...

    Things TA did well that SupCom didn't

    I have to weigh in to support raevn's point's. The strategic zoom was brilliant, and has since become practically an industry standard in large...

    Galactic War

    That should be quite possible. I figure if they went with a Galactic War metagame along similar lines to the ones we were talking about, bearing in...

    Galactic War

    Unit Veternacy: can we skip it?

    Water Planets/Gas Giants

    Do we need naval?

    I'm admittedly a naval buff, but I'd love to see that included. Yes, hover units can replace some of what naval does, but no naval takes away some...
