Well for one what difficulty do you play at? This determines to a large degree how your relations will turn out with other races. In GC1 there are tactics called "cookie cutters" for your first 10 or so turns to make your starting position and other things work in your favor. Also your starting position can play a big role in initial rush for starting new planets etc...for any race. Your other question is answered by the game itself. These aliens races have been scou

Ya'll remember Sid Meirs Civilizations? In it once you researched needed tech a little box would come up asking if you wanted to upgrade your older units to newer ones with out penalizing exp or anything else. i would vote yes for a similiar concept here for this purpose.Sure it could cost a ton of money but that is a choice you make to further your race. Or if you decided to scrap it why not give a little material back for another project, or create a pool of reclaimed resources so
I tried starting a custom race. As soon as you set all attributes for your race and hit next button on last page game just closes to desktop. Has the custon races been activated yet or just a placeholder for an upcoming beta release? I did not crash like GC1 used to or freeze. Just went staight to desktop.
I can scroll every where but right.
I don't agree. A market place is like a fleamarket. A bank holds control over retail, deveolement etc.. Also the benefits are stackable. A marketplace is what 8 % and a bank is 10 % so it adds up to 18% in long run. In GC1 you needed all the help you can get specially on crippling and maso with your economy.
Yes but in real life we arent in space where you can shot 1000's of miles.
Retreating isn't really a viable option. If you tried what would stop your opponent from just following and finishing you off anyways. If it was implemented then you should have a reduced defense ....aka being shot in the back approach. Or maybe you could have a percentage if you can retreat successfully. This could be done by your admirals skill lvl versus your opponents skill lvl. For example if your ADM was lvl 2 and your opponent was lvl 4 then you would only have a 10% chance of a succ
As a long time member of GC1 it was noted that GC2 would have MP in it. But as I return to see the GC2 product ,I see that this was nixxed. Most of the games I played for months on end had MP in it to keep it fresh and more interesting. I got tired once I figured out how to beat GC1 on maso. You could apply the same principals and 95% of time win it. BORING!!! No matter how much content was added it was still apply same things and hit turn button. In the end I knew I would win so I left for a MM
I kinda like the above.....except I would like to see the asteroid belt in there .... it could give a solar system extra defense abilities.
Hello all Been a long time. If you send a constructor to a SB and decide not to upgrade it the constructor dissappears. I hit no and cancel and my constructor dissappeared.
if u left u had to still play by the same rules regardless instead of being a rogue race.
I like the interface to.Will it have the ability to change depending on your morality(good=white ,evil=red)?Haven't seen anything posted about the interface changing like GC1.
Hi all Its been along time since I was an active member and am returning to check out the new releases and such.

Been awhile since I played and was waiting 4 some more content. I wrote mods etc for awhile and even that couldn't hold my attention for months on end. So I wandered off into the depths of the galaxy on a quest of my own and have decided to play some more.When maso got easy 2 you just kinda wander off in search of a new challenge.So I will get the new AP expansion and try the newer revisions.Maybe even start writing new campaigns and mods again.I hope this will be what was missing from the origi
Well I found my answer so ty if any 1 responds.
I havent played in 10 months and just returned and downloaded newest version. After I played a game and submitted it,it didnt show up in my game profile. On the submission page is your nickname the the name you put in the alias line? I cant remember and its been a long time so any help would be appreciated.
Well after a long hiatus(vacation)Eradicus returns to look at his crumbling empire.He ponders if all can be salvaged or would it be better to to move on and search for a new frontier or to rebuild his homeworld.He is also wondering what happened to his fellow mates.Did they succumb to the evil in the universe or are they thriving in some distant land? Sup Kevin and PJ.Have ya'll tried the new expansion pack and is it worth gettin to renew the expansion of humankind across the galax
PJ or Kevin if either of you want to take over the clan leave me a message here and I will add either or both of you as senators.
Thats a trade secret!!
Greetings fellow Pangaists Just a couple more days and I should be back awhile.The holidays are finally over and my travels have come to an end for now.I have a couple of things to get taken care of and then the games can again commence. Maskull I would like to welcome you to our humble place in the galaxy. PJ looks like I have some catching up to do. KTK glad to see you moving up the ranks. Anton please send me some info on the UP council thing you are working on.I have not
PJ I emailed those docs that I had.There are more if you find that those I sent you work. Eradicus :HOT:
If you put any values in then the game disregards them and assigns a random value.You can increase loyalty but it doesn't seem to work the way you expect.Its probably better to use morale.If you send me your email I will send you some files that might be helpful to you for modding.Either post here or use the link to my email above. Eradicus :HOT: [Message Edited]
Seasons greetings to all!!
