They don't seem as willing to 'empty the barracks' when you get them involved in a war. I used to park transports and frigates near planets and wait for all the dreadnaughts to leave orbit - doesn't seem to happen as much any more (at least in the 2 games I lost last night).

Reply to Arceans colonized a PQ14 planet in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The Arceans are causing culture flipping problems for me in my current game. During the land grab, they managed to sneak in a planet that I missed in the middle of my territory. It is causing much discontent in the neighboring planets, so I decided to colonize a system with 2 PQ14 planets in a nearby sector in an attempt to boost my influence in the area. I was quite surprised when my colony ship arrived only to discover that the Arceans had already colonized it. Off to war we go....

Finished the game last night while watching Monday Night Football. Have decided that the Green Bay Packer fans are probably the envy of every major sports team owner on the planet (they have 60,000 people on their waiting list for season tickets). 38 degrees and raining and they are sitting in the stands using blocks of cheese for hats.

I currently have good relations with them because of lots of trade. Next to the Yor are the Drengins. I'm in the upper right corner of a large galaxy with abundant planets (playing Crippling). Basically looks like a blue, p

I keep telling my girlfriend she is going to "pull a muscle rolling her eyes like that" when I tell her about the GalCiv adventures. Although she was pretty psyched when someone else joined the Republic of Aldar.

Yup. New house = no free time to crush alien civilizations :) Trying to figure out a way to crank out a bunch of high scoring games to shoot us up in the old Metaverse. To be honest, the only difference I've noticed in the new release is that the Minors now expand out of their sectors. This seems to help them stay around a little longer. Other than that, the game play seems about the same. [Message Edited]
