Gaia worlds appear green all over. Even mountains are covered in lush and verdant blankets of life!

5. What are the three types of treaties one can have with an opponent when not at war?

Peace treaties are ones that end an existing state of war with another race.

6. What is the name of the weapon that, when fired on a planet, will destroy that planet and reduce it to an asteroid belt?

Answer: Stellar Converter

Doom Star is the heaviest class of starship (great for mounting the huge Stellar Converter on), Nano Disassemblers break down environmental pollution into its component particles, and a Black Hole Generator is a tactical weapon discovered after defeating the Guardian at Orion. With a Stellar Converter, one is given the option of destroying a newly conquered world.

7. What is the highest rank a hired Ship Officer can achieve?

Answer: Lord Admiral

Even the female Ship Officers are referred to as "Lord". A limitation of the programming, supposedly.

8. Which of the following is not a way of winning the game?

Answer: Defeating the Guardian at Orion

Defeating the Guardian at Orion is rewarded with a huge, rich Gaia world, a stack of special technologies and weapons, and the "Avenger" - a Titan-class starship commanded by the Guardian Loknar himself.

9. The moons of planets can also be colonized in "Master of Orion II".

Answer: False

Moons are not included at all in the game. They are shown in MOO3, but serve no practical purpose there, either.

Answer: 1200

After 1200 turns, one actually begins to lose points for taking too long!
