In GCI ships fight ships one at a time. The only purpose of fleets is to move many ships together with just one click. Of course you can protect defenseless ships by placing them in a fleet with an escort. Although i am not sure if ships defending a planet get a bonus from other ships in orbit. But it should be explained in the manual.

I would say Technology. Also it is hard to do a cultural Victory, too. Because keeping the peace and protecting your cultural Starbases can be difficult at times.

Reply to Reintroducing the Iconians in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I always wondered how the Iconian techtree will look like and I like it. Giving them watered down Precursor techs makes for interesting strategy. But will their researchbiuldings be stronger than that of other races?

Let's see how the Drengin will deal with this. Great story Eidolon1032 of the Emperors Children.

Reply to Lord Kona vs Darth Vader vs Kane in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

Well Kona could build a Terror Star and that blows a sun in pieces, while the Deathstar just destroyes planets. But all in all the Empire ruled almost over a whole Galaxy, so they definitly have more colonies than the Drengin Empire. It would depend on what weapons the Drengin have already researched.

Reply to How do I get started? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Ok, the first part of a game is always the colonization phase. Get as many Planets as you can, also don't forget that some systems have more then one habitable planet. Try not to take colonies with a PQ rating below 15. To do that you have to build Colonyships. You could buy them at the beginning but don't let your funds go to far down. And start building manifacturing biuldings on your planets. Then in the first round go to the screen where you can adjust taxes. Set the Tax slider so

Reply to instalation in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Isn't your serial number on your cd box? But nevertheless make a stardock.net account, you can then always ask them for your serials if you loose them or download the game without installing it from cd. [Message Edited]

Reply to orginal cd not verifyed - german version in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Why don't you use Stardock central. You can download it here http://www.stardock.com/downloads . Of course you need a valid serial number but that should be on the case. Ich habe auch die deutsche Version von GCI und ich hatte keine Probleme damit sie über SDC zu updaten. Du solltest aber wissen das dann das Spiel teilweise Englisch wird, wobei vieleicht haben sie das mitlerweile geändert aber das must du halt selber herausfinden. Viel Glück

Well research costs money. Each Researchunit (the pink bottles) cost 1bc i think. So through the slider setting you decide how much goes into research, mil. production and social production. But each Hammer, shield and bottle cost 1bc and that then leads to your spending. Hope that helps a little. In the Encyclopedia there are articles that explain the whole economy

Reply to No Events!!! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Have you started a new game since you downloaded the upgrade? Maybe that could be your problem since it is best to start a new game after upgrading. Also it could take quite some turns for a new event to appear. [Message Edited]

Reply to Working feverishly in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Hi, [color="#FFFF00"]Steffen Reker[/color] am i right in assuming that you are from Germany. If so and you are a student why don't you try out Barclays card. You get both the visa and master card and you only have to proof that you are a student (matrikel nummer). Cost 12 Eur a year. Or you go to your lokal bank, like Sparkasse they give you a mastercard even if you still go to school (ok you must be 18). Hope that helps you a bit.

Reply to How radical should expansion packs get? in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I would really like to see more expansions after Twilight of the Arnor. Also waiting 4 years for GCIII is ok but the time gap between the last expansion and the sequel shouldn't be to big. For example, I would be open to revamping the whole economic system in a future expansion pack to help streamline it. I'd also like to expand the United Planets to allow civilizations to submit "bills" to the UP to vote on. I'd also like to see more types of ship component

Reply to Video Games Are Anti-Social and Addictive in Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

Also, I would like somebody to explain to me the 6,000 years theory. As far as I know, it says the Earth is 6,000 years old because of Adam & Eve -- unfortunately, we have no way of knowing whether or not the Earth was made when Adam was born, we just assume it was made a few days before, but you have to remember, to God, time is nothing, a second, a minute, a day, a year -- it's all the same. 6 days could be the same as 60 million years. Well eart

Reply to Babylon 5 v0.5 Release in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Great Mod Rav8. I have played them from the beginning and they get better and better. Something i noticed was that certain massdriver components are not invisible. Same with the spacemining modul. Also there is a problem with the Centauri Superability. The Dominators are invisible. Im am also really looking forward to 0.6
