Reply to Game manual update and playing Dread Lords and Dark Avatar campaigns through Twilight expansion in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

I dont feel asking for the tech trees of each race is unreasonable nor is it a strategy guide. I feel it is needed to be able to play the game so you can plan your your use of these techs that are unique to each race

Reply to A simple, excellent improvement suggestion in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

The way ive always understood it the mini map was never intended to show more than the the star and the number of planets .carthography only gives you the sun and how many planets orbit that sun!! You have to physically explore that system to find out the type and quality of those planets.I personelly prefer it that way this is a 4x game and explore is an integral part of this type of game.

I turn off tech trading particularily in TA as I like to keep the flavor of the seperate tech trees.I think it makes for a more interesting game that way.

Reply to Twilight Beta 6a in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

There is one thing I would like when we have a finished version and that is a way to print out Tech tree of each race.I find I cant remember which race has what tech and where that tech is on the tech tree !This would be of great help to me and I'm sure others.I especially like playing different races and I play with tech trading off !For me it keeps the races individual and different.

Reply to sad about twilight's price in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Excuse me!! your complaining about the price drop of a game that is over 2 years old(gc2DL--feb 2006)and the price drop of a game that is over a year old (GC2DA--feb 2007) games that you have played for from 1-2 years before this drop in price ! Which game bundles by the way is a good merchanting tool to sell older out of the lime light games which is a sale most likely missed because it is an older game as we gamers are more likely to buy a newest and greatest hyped game than a true and tried

(Citizen)smartie0--Also, I forgot to enable custom maps so you won't be able to load them into Twilight. If you really want to try it out before next week, you might be able to get around it by making your own tournament and putting it in the tournament directory.

I am also in complete agreement with taking your time on the release of TA .I am looking forward to seeing the improvments unfold in the proper balancing of this expansion!!!!You have also made me excited to be a PC owner again in the idea of a turnbased fantasy stategy game in the likes of (MOM and fantasy general).Now if someone would make a world war one flight sim that will play on my 64 bit operating system that could horror of horrors out do the red baron. I can hardly wait to hear more

i think you have forgotten that there is more than just conquest wins to this game .Not everyones style is geared toward conquest wins . Nor is every race geared toward conquest way of winning.You are going to have to take in consideration the other three ways of winning diplomatic,influence and technological.And to further muddy the waters Size of game can have a big effect on the way to win also.I realize that if all you are looking for is big scores in meta then conquest is the only way to g
