The Uber Empires of SEIV!

[Starhawk]

As the title sugjests I want people to list the "UBER EMPIRES" of their gaming days this is just for kicks so don't worry if you don't "measure up" to the others.


Okay here's my "Uber Empire" of history:

Empire Name: Empire of Man
Planets Occupied: 854
Sphereworlds: 27 (3 more under construction when game crashed)
Population: 3.5 Trillion
Ships: 1,300
Troops: 4,000
Bases: 24
Mod: Devnull
Biggest battles:
500 ships vs 300 ships
150 ships vs 1 Fortress sphereworld (I won easily muahahha)
Shipset Used: House of Aleskander

Okay your turn!

Holy [biep]!! Now that's one mean empire.
27 Sphereworlds, the best I managed in one game was 5.
But most games I play are very short and intense games. I really don't like those long games, they tend to bore me.

Edit:
It's House of Aleskander.

Ah edited thanks....well I had 3 constructor fleets going around buildin them all at the same time and a transport fleet of about 8 billion people following each constructor fleet so when the Sphereworld was built I just colonized dropped the pop and waited for them to grow like mad and by time the next sphereworld was done I usually had seen that 8 billion become 20 billion so I grabbed a few billion off of that sphereworld and then a few from the local planets and WHAM big time population boom!

Man, that battle must have lasted long. Battles with 100 ships usually take about 2 minutes, with 1,300 ships...

Probably get it going the amble off to the pub. That's what I'd do anyway. Mind you I'd never end up with a game that big, I just don't like fleets of hundreds of ships flying around. You lose all touch with whats going on and nothing really means anything. Or maybe that's just me. *shrug*

[Q]

Stardate 2469.5

Personal Mod (Proportion like)

My empire:
1095 colonies in 57 systems including about 60 sphereworlds and 30 ringworlds.
Score of 217.7M
181.5B population
147250 units
2962 bases
377 ships
(I stopped expansion some time ago and built heavy defenses on warp points to allow counter attacks of the AI. Therefore the low number of ships and the huge number of bases).

Largest AI empie:
701 colonoes in 44 systems.
Score of 227M
157.1B population
112413 units
2107 ships
117 bases

Largest battles (several):
About 150 defense moons (6000kT bases) and 250 ultralarge sats (240kT each) against 1200 attacking ships (dreadnaughts, baseships, heavy carriers).

I continued the game to this point to see how SE IV manages these huge battles: as long as not too many fighters are involved everything worked fine. Large remaining fighter numbers at the end of the combat however causes frequently a game crash.

...Some of you have waaaaaaaaaaay to much time on your hands...

[Timstone]

I agree Narf. I wish I had the time to do such an elaborate game.
