Some people just don't understand that they have to suspend disbelief to play a game.

yeah what he said

As it says, it's not people born every week. It's people paying taxes. Legal immigration ftw! Azrune: Cloning? eh? droids? where? Still manual labour. Besides, where would they build more than one? They could, there's just no space.

Well with cloning and robots, 200 years in the future i'm pretty sure they are gonna have that, look at all the stuff they built in the 1900's, cars, nuclear bombs, and all that stuff, and when you ask where they are well actually I don't know about cloning but they have those wierd robots that are always on the tech screen. No space?! what?! Bullshit they have a whole planet, that's like saying there isn't enough room on Earth to build ships and airplanes. Still manual labor, well if I was there emperor i'd tell them to get to work or i'll hang them by the balls! what the hell are those workers doing in those factory's??!!

they are cloning babies...

Well maybe they can build the ships faster but you have to have 'sea trials' and get the crew up to snuff on that new ship, which requires a LOT of background managment to get new crew and new ship into fighting ability.

Or you could just do as the one person suggest and relize that this is just a GAME and in fact has NOTHING to do with reality. They are this way for play balance, do you really need a real life reason?

The future is the future!

Sorry guys and gals, sometimes my humor gets the best of me. I hope I did not offend anyone.

Does it matter? A turn's a turn...

Yeah, it matters. If it was just turns, I could view my progress more intuitively. As it is, I have to convert calendar weeks to turns in my head.

I was told there'd be no math.
