How high are your taxes? over 50% you get a significant aproval hit. You can also construct some moral improvement buildings in the planet (multimedia center, entertaiment whatever, etc). The aproval taing on a particular planet depends also in its class and population. Maybe you can better explain your situation

Reply to How do we get better warships? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

In order to have the core ships appear, you must have researched all the necessary tech, which may not all be military (you may need defense, propulsuion, life support, etc... It is definetelly easier to design a new ship with the techs you have, at least until there is a list of the missing techs for a given model of core ship.

Reply to How is defence calculated for multiple weapons in Game Talk Stardock Forums

What I found when I was observing the fleet battles is that if defence is 0, then there is always damage of 1. So, my guess is that attack start calculating from one. Do you mean whatever the attack value, if defense is 0, then damage will be one? Do you mean defense 0 (=no defenses) or de

Reply to BUG: Military Startbase does not provide defence bonus to the ships. in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

That's strange. Military starbases have been saving me in my games. My defenders end up having laser c3, misssile 5, gun 6 and 16 level in all defenses. A fleet of 4 of these can take care of almost anything, as long as they don't get out of the starbase umbrella.

Saber cherry, Though I gave up studying the numbers after the first block, are your results compatible with what yellow sign found in the other thread on "how t is defense calculated" here: Link And are they coherent with the fact that an attack againt a non optimum defense should always be more efficient than an attack by a weapon againt the optimum defense

Reply to AI Balance> Unfair AI-to-AI Tech Trade in Trade Stardock Forums

The AI does not always ask higher value techs when trading: it depends on your diplomatic skill and if you are coming to them with the trade offer. When they come to you, I've had very interesting offers from them. It is true though that at beggining the AI trade a lot amongst themselves, but usually you end up catching up nd eventually surpassing them. ry trading more, a few techs ata time, and don't forget minor civs!

Conclusion: It is not better to have single weapon for small attack, large defence. I suspect that for larger attack and defence values (but still attack smaller than defence), it will be even much better to have 2 weapons. The reason: for large numbers sqrt(X) <b

Reply to Influence bug? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

the other race's influence may have evolved as well. Those boundaries are not borders but rather the space where you influance is superior, eve if only by one unit (say 125 whatever vs 124, the parsec is yours). So the visual border varies often by a few parsecs ilustrating what may be little variances in influence that only has an impact in your fringe parsecs. It's only worrying if it keeps getting closer to your planets <img src="http://images.st

Reply to How is defence calculated for multiple weapons in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

4 beam vs 4 deflector would be a straight-up 1d4 vs 1d4 roll (result: 0 to 3 damage). Whereas if you had 2 beam and 2 mass, it would be two rolls: 1d2 vs 1d4, and 1d2 vs 1d2 (total result: 0 to 2 damage). Indeed, indeed. Basic mathematics failed me again... So the best defense is having one main as high as possible and two othe

I've not noticed this myself since it seems that I can develop faster than some AI races in all games (and slower than others). About your first point, I don't understand why their range must be less than yours? A lot of things can influence range, from the abilities you pick to new life support modules to your ship. For the seconf point I don't understand. I think I remember that you could rush-buy things in galciv one. I rememb

Generally speaking, yes. Interesting. I though that having 2 weapons class on the ship would make one of them at least more efficient against the enemy's ship defense (if it had only shields against the combined lazer and massD)

Reply to Feature Suggestion: Diplomacy auto-balance in Ideas Stardock Forums

I agree with the suggestion. Maybe it could be handled as in Rome TW, where you suggest something and they make a counter-offer and so on. As for your question M-5 the cursor is indeed very sensitive to mouse drag, specially if you have a lot of money. . I get the right spot by draging it, finding aproximatively the the right spot that makes the trade acceptable, and then finetune with the mouse wheel (the cursor has to be over the slid

There's a line of techs that you can research that lets a starbase take care of itself, Nastavnik. In fact, it makes starbases just about untouchable until late game. Yes I saw it, I just dont research it too far, I focus on giving it some firepower and attack assistance modules. Each critical star
