Hi, I'd opt for introducing a mechanism that provides for some sense of internal tension and confict between competing factions/ parties/ houses. This is probably a DLC related topic but here's the sales pitch. Right now you've got a good 4X with a bunch of suggestions to fine tune various aspects of the 4X experience. However it's a very outward focused 4X with a hollow centre. Stellaris and Endless Space 2 both have strong elements of internal conflict which go a long

Hi, Could I second a few suggestions that have come up. 1.Option toggle for hiding enemy ship stats from the player UNTIL they actually meet in combat. A higher level of espionage can give that information to the player, providing a further strategic reason for espionage and adding a greater dimension of decision making in what type of weapon / defence path to go down.

Suggestion to Improve the Senate in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums
