Reply to Can you give me a clue? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The trick is to stay out of hostile times untill you have more population. :) I usually take a few +Pop growth picks just in case. If you've got more planets than anyone else, as soon as you've built them up you've practically won. ~SDC~

Reply to Dread Lords ruined my game! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Completely random event. Not very likely to happen. I've only seen a couple times. Here's the text of the event straight from english.str, if you're interested. [Event_DarkArnor_1] Legend has it that hundreds of thousands of years ago there was a world called Arnor. On this world were a race known as the Precursors.\n \n Supposedly, there was a war between two factions of them. On the one side were the ones who called themselves the 'Arnor' and on the other side the ones known as the

Actually, now that I think of it, AutoSave was the corrupt save I was trying to load. PreviousAutosave worked. The game had CTDd when the Draginol tried to appear. They appeared just fine when I played through from PreviousAutosave, though. ~SDC~

Reply to odd low-morale planet in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Was there a colonization event that lowered the morale? I once colonized a 12 to extend my range, took a -44% morale choice, then destroyed the colony. Later in the game a new minor happened to pop up on that planet, and when I took it over the -44% was still there. ~SDC~

Reply to High level AI bonuses? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Do they also get bonuses on Genius? I read in the Encyclopedia (a link to a forum post almost a year old) that Genius AIs get 5% more money and Incredible AIs get 40% more, but it didn't mention any other bonuses for either of them. Are there Genius bonuses, too? By the way, Theoden, the FAQ on the FOTR website was actually the first place I looked. Even before the Encyclopedia. That really says something about the Fellowship, doesn't it? :) ~SDC~ [Message Edited]

Reply to The Metaverse Admiralty in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

One more game... And just when I was thinking of taking a break, maybe playing one of those new games I got for christmas. There's always something pulling me back to GalCiv. "The 20 game medal is only two games away!", "I'm ranked 105. I'm sure I could at least get to the top 100 before christmas break." The metaverse just won't let me go. :)

The "fix" sidesteps the issue by renumbering all the techs. It'll still get caught in its infinite loop if you have techs with ID numbers over 199. If you're using mods, it'll probably be easiest to just remove the offending UP issues until the next patch. ~SDC~

Reply to "End Turn Skips Moves Left" poll in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

In the beginning I thought that turning "End Turn Skips Moves Left" off would prevent me from accidently ending a turn when some of my ships still had moves. I couldn't begin to guess what "End Turn - Skips Moves Left" would mean. Maybe that would encourage players to go online and look it up. ;) ~SDC~

Reply to The Diplomatic Channel - Home of the Diplomats Empire in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

The only time a major will break an alliance is if you go to war with another civilization with which they're allied or if they ask you to help them in a war and you refuse. There's also a random event that causes war between two civs, and that can happen even when they're allied. Just in case you didn't know, you don't need all five to get an alliance victory, just all the remaining ones. If you kill off four and ally with the fifth, you have an alliance victory. ~SDC~
