[quote who="RavenX" reply="58" id="3420985"] So no controllable battles ala Elemental or MoO 2? Damn...that makes me a sad panda . I think I'll hold off on my pre-order now. Makes me wonder how substantial the weapon types will be now as well. In Gal Civ 2 there were different types of weapons (Mass, Laser, etc) but they really didn't mean anything at all. Mass weapons were still blocked completely by shields if the shields were strong enough (among other things I cou

Reply to Tactical combat. in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Personally, I'm on the fence for tactical combat in GC3, but what I would really like to see is a more in depth Tech Tree with regard to options (both offensive and defensive) for ships. This is one area I feel Space Empires IV excelled at. There was such a variety of weapon types and areas of research that no game has come close to emulating. In comparison, ship design felt very simplified in Gal Civ 2, and I hope it is an area they improve on. Of cour

Reply to Ship Component Question in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Yes - when I started on a race set of hulls, I only had one small, one tiny etc. But as the game progressed and then into following games with the same ship sets the extra hulls were still there.

Reply to Why be good? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I like the system as it is, and very rarely play evil (just a personal preference) - i cant, even in games, take advantage of others misfortunes. I see the evil option as advcancing yourself, no matter what the cost to others, and the good options are much more moralistic way to go - and as in rl good morales aren't always easy choices.

Reply to Needs more Depth in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Ok, I am not agreeing with the statement that GC2 lacks depth - I believe it has good depth in the main 4 areas that a space strategy needs. However, there are other games out there that I believe have more depth in certain areas. Space Empires 4 for example, I believe has superior technology levels and the shipbuilding options (although not as aesthetically (spelling) pleaseing has more options and therefore strategy and depth. I think the colony bulding in SE4 is also superior. I c

Sorry, didnt explain myself very well. I have had other games purchaed reatil in the UK, and then downloaded the online explansion and it doesnt run with the original UK reatil version. I wanted to see if the downloaded expansion pack (which I am guessing is US version) will work with UK Retail original games. (Again sorry if this is a dumb question, but I am just after clarification)
