White Dwarf systems... in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Anyone colonize a white dwarf system? It's rare, I know; but if you do find a white dwarf type star with a Class 14 planet and upgrade the system... you will notice your logo/badge covers it up completely! Just an odd little graphic quirk. It's as if you Terran Badge is floating in space. Granted, it's not worth colonizing just for this, but I've made SUPER SECTORS by colonizing systems with even one 13 class planet or higher... it takes some bucks to get them off the ground and colonis

Reply to Fourth Game: Lost Again in Strategies Stardock Forums

what the hell WERE you doing then? Battle Cruisers? The Cadillac Seville of the space ways? Two to three dreadnoughts can dominate a galaxy where no other race has them.
