More star base options - Research Center (increase research on nearby planets, or provide a fixed amount of research of their own) Shipyards - star bases capable of manufacturing their own ships

Reply to Things you would like to see in a Galactic Civilization expansion set in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I haven't read through the entire thread, but here's a few things I'd like to see: 1. Ability to highlight multiple ships for actions. For example, I had a ton of old ships I wanted to decommission and I couldn't find a way to do it en masse. If I could highlight 10 or 20 and hit the 'delete' key to get rid of them, that'd be great. 2. Ability to set all planets building something to build something else. For example, i'd like to be able to say, "Have all of my planets makin

Weak AI? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I'm admittedly not very good at GalCiv yet, but I was playing on "Normal" and getting smoked. I had about 15-20 systems and was the 2nd or 3rd lowest civ. Anyway, the Arcaen AI up and declared war on me without any provocation I know of.

Nothing works for me. I got a random event about a prison and now these three purple ships will NOT leave me alone. I've thrown about 35 Corvettes at them and they blow up everything I own in 1 attack. My morale is rock-bottom and I've built every morale improvement I can ... really sucking here. There's only 1 resource within range and I've sent 4 constructors to it and they've all been destroyed by those dang prison ships. I also have a problem with it locking up after about 60 mi

I *REALLY* suck at this game and need tips. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I've played 3 or 4 games now and they all start out the same: I hemmorage population rapidly, go into massive debt from which I can't escape, and my planets gradually switch allegiences. I make peace with every race but they invariably attack me, completely unprovoked. I've tried expanding slowly, expanding quickly, nothing works. I quickly end up with a treasury artound -600 and NOTHING I do short of disbanding all of my ships (of which I rarely have more than 3 or 4) can get me to break eve
