The starbase bonuses *do* stack, you can check this by going to the planet view screen then clicking on the details button at the bottom right; in the details screen you get to see all the bonuses affecting your planet and some other thing... including a quote from a denizen of the planet, nice. I would change your start by, at most, purchasing only one colony ship. Buy your first factory. Crank your production up to 100% and set your tax rate to 49% (There's a larger morale decrea

Reply to Crashes after the new patch in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Are the games you're loading from before the patch? Also, if you're posting about crashes you should post the debug file. There's a sticky on what to do if your game crashes....

Before running off, he turns to your friend and says "Hey (friend's name), how's it going?" to which your friend replies in a friendly manner. Do you still consider him a friend? <

AI Surrendering in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Anyone else getting extremely annoyed with the AI surrendering to other civs? An outline of my last game. Large map, 9 civs, mixed Bright/Intelligent AI. First civ I take out surrenders to me. Second civ surrenders to third civ, which surrenders to fourth, which surrenders to fifth, which surrenders to sixth, etc. Shouldn't the fact that I'm the one who has destroyed their fleets and invaded their worlds and have a huge fleet around their planets
