Hey, awesome GalCiv Community! I'm working on a GalCiv FAQ for new players and I'd like your help! In an effort to reduce the barrier to entry of the 4X genre (which, to some, is a very intimidating style of

In response to your feedback on update 1.4 for Galactic Civilizations III , the Dev Team has made it so that you may optionally re-enable the old planetary production wheel through a pref.ini setting. The reason the wheel is no longer part of the main game is two-fold. First, we don't want players to feel like they must microma

Here at Stardock, we are always working on improving our titles by releasing updates, many of which are based on user feedback. Today, we are releasing version 1.4 for one of our most popular titles, Galactic Civilizations III. One of the things that our player base has been asking for is the ability to more easily manage the hundreds of individ
Ashes of the Singularity is a concept that Stardock has been mulling over since the year 2000. Finally, we are in the throes of development and Steam Early Access is upon us, which has us all very excited! Perhaps
If you're new to the genre of RTS, it can be a little overwhelming. RTS (Real Time Strategy) games are fast-paced and don't really wait for you to catch up, since your opposing elements are constantly building, exploring, and conquering. Due to the "real time" nature of these types
Game concepts don't just happen overnight. Well, sure, an idea might hit you hard when you're not expecting it (of course, never when you ARE expecting it!), but it takes time to develop and hone that idea so that it becomes something coherent and interesting. One of the things that excites me most about games, personally, is the lore behind them. I'm a story oriented gamer, so a game can have
Hi all, Here is the promised thread. If you have a question you'd like answered, post them here and I will do what I can to get the answers from the team. -Kristy
Hi all, I appreciate your feedback! With Scott busy on other projects, plus traveling, it has been hard to snag him for streams. He is traveling next week, but the week following he assures me he will be able to come join me! Here's what I can and will do: I will venture into the forums and do my best to collect your questions and comments regarding the game. I will compile them in an easy-to-find document and take it to the Dev team personally. I

Stardock's First Annual Dead Man's Draw Tournament: The Recap! Ahoy, mateys! Your "resident pirate" Kristy here, with some mighty tales from the high seas for International Talk Like a Pirate Day! ...And by "mighty" , I mean silly, and by "high seas" I mean Stardock's basement. Now that we've established some clarification of my tendency to embellish, allow me to continue!
I...I can't even... Ohh man, see you guys at 3!
I can see if I can scrounge up some information on this for all of you! I'm still pretty new here, but if I can get a list compiled I will certainly do so.
Running a kingdom is exhausting work, especially when you have the looming threat of an all-powerful psychopath bent on world domination looming just around the bend. Luckily, you're not the one in the hot seat -- your Sovereign of choice is. And if you're like me and you personify characters within games while you play ( <span class="TextRun SCX72086120
If you play a lot of games like I do that involve the basic "fantasy" classes (fighter, rogue, mage, etc.), then you probably have a preferred type of hero that you like to play. For me, it's usually the fighter -- I like swords (they're shiny) and big critical-hitting numbers. I like to be abl

Hello! This community is pretty awesome, and I'm sure they will have many helpful suggestions to you. For a bit of starter help and a breakdown of what 4X is, you can take a look at some of the posts in this forum here: http://forums.sorcererking.com/forum/1139 As for the best Sovereigns to start with for a beginner, I've heard a lot of differing opinions on that, but it seems that ma
Thanks a lot! I'm enjoying my playthroughs of Sorcerer King -- hopefully the rest of you are as well!
You’ve explored and surveyed the map, built a few cities and have trained their defenses, and now you’re also researching spells and amassing resources. Although you’re gaining power, you aren’t quite ready to take on the Sorcerer King just yet. So, what do you do with all of these powerful armies at your disposal? I suppose now we can talk about the last “X” in “4X”: Exterminate .</
You’ve explored your map of Elemental and have a good idea of where your new cities can go and where your trouble spots lurk. You’ve started to build outposts and expand your influence, allowing you to amass more firepower against the Sorcerer King. Now that we’ve covered two of the four “X's” in 4X, let’s talk about the third. Exploit. Exploit can mean a lot of different
You’ve hired and trained your Scout and have sent them out to examine the world. Your city is starting to grow as you build farms to support your population and barracks to maintain your growing army. Now that you’ve explored the vast resources, encounters, and potential settlements that your map has to offer, you’re left with the second “X” in “4X”, which is: Expand. It
