Acronyms please
It's been quite a while since I played SMAC, and I rarely posted in the SMAC forums, so could someone list all the acronyms you use here (also parties) and what they mean?

See the The "Chironian Guild" , which has a pretty good list of most of the smac abbreviations. It's in the "database" section.
Or get the funny things.
Welcome in, anyway !
TKG  : CCCP is for Centauri Communalist Citizen's Party , and I think you forgot the SSK, Sub Faction for Science and Knowledge...
EDIT : Second link fixed

"In My Honest Opinion". I think it's an ugly acronym, though, so I never use it.
