Hello! in Society Stardock Forums

Hi there Society board, Gal Civ II player here. After hearing about Stardocks next venture, I came and saw, and as always am impressed with the ideas I see. Everything sounds very intriguing, and I for one can't wait to play. The one major thing that has me worried is the whole 'free to play thing'. I know this isn't the same thing, but I am a MMORPG junkie. There are no worse communities than the free MMoRPG communties (this incl

Reply to What to do with poor planets? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

One factory then the rest research labs. After the intial building is done, flip it to specialise in research and just forget about it. Even if the upgrading process takes a while it doesn't really matter as your not needing it to be that quick as all that needs upgrading is a factory every now and then and then the labs. Your not waiting to build anything new.

Very nice story DarkTalon. I'd be interested in hearing how it all finishes out for you.

Reply to How many planets do you build starports on? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Seems I'm being rather reserved compared to other people on my starport deployment. I only tend to throw Starports on Quality 10+ planets, unless the lower quality planet has a manufacturing bonus.

You Stardock fella's have a lot to answer for. To think I only got into Gal Civ about a month ago... and just for something tactical to try. I was bored, couldn't find a game to play so searching through GamefaQ's I came across the Gal civ board, read the reviews, and thought hmmm sounds about up my ally.. I'll give it a try. So I obtained a 'copy' of the game. Needless to say, I didn't actually buy it at the time. I had my reservations, and thusly was

Starve them, reduce your incoming food production, one way or another. Works for me .

Reply to Post screenshots of your custom designed ships here! in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Just wondering how you guys manage to get pictures of your ships from the game? could anyone enlighten me? or do I need to go into windowed mode and use a jpg grabbing tool? I have a few designs, albiet not as great as some above, and still no monsters yet. Still only relatively low in the tech tree so not got to make the Big Battleships yet. But I'm somewhat happy with some of my smaller craft design, as simple as they are <img src="http:

Reply to Post here if you have no major bugs in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Had the old 'Ship design save window popping up behind another', and crashing the game once I come out of Ship design and click it myself. It seems to only do it if you go into ship design with other windows left open (especially if you leave the GNN one open after clicking goto 'insert planet here' and redesigning ships). So i now make sure I only go to redesign ships after I have closed every other window. A slight nusiance, prehaps, but better than
