Reply to Cari makes the news in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Well, as an aspiring game developer engaged to a staunch female rights activist, my fiance and I send you our biggest congrats, Cari! Your work is remarkable, not because you're a woman, but because you're a damned fine programmer who wasn't afraid to go into what is sometimes an unwelcoming industry. Keep up the good work

aye. . . me at least, my 'capital' worlds have the entire infrastructure devoted to that building type, excepting 2 factories on tech/economic capitals to help it all build/upgrade. Maybe that's just me being illogical That said, damn Brad, this is very nice. THANK you for the REAL defending fleets. . . I get sick of picking off 1/0/0 0/0/

Reply to Total Sales a factor of distribution more than anything in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I just want to throw in Brad, and I know it's been said a lot before, but it needs to be said again: getting mentioned by Tycho in his little series of 'space games he's excited about' is one of the best things that happened to you guys pre-release. The decision to put ads on said site, and Tycho/Gabe's willingness to sell said adspace to you guys (I.E. - they like and want to support your game), put you in front of a huge audience of gamer

Reply to MOO3 = FUN in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

So I guess I am the weirdest guy on the forum. I like MOO3 alright, but I can't beat the AI, so I always lose. The same thing happens on GalCiv2, so, I can't even faulot MOO3 for that. I will go away now

Reply to Good Sci-Fi novels/series in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

Stephen Baxter's Ring novels are very, very good hard, hard, HARD scifi. His science is impeccable, but his ideas are awesome. Like, if you thought that the Ringworld was a significant piece of technology, wait till you see HIS Ring! So yeah, 'Ring' and 'Vacuum Diagrams' are bot hreally great books in the series. Most of what has been mentioned so far is great, too. I'd also recommend Spider Robinson's Calahan's serie

Reply to T-Shirt Contest Winners! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

I guess I was wondering. . . will you guys ever sell shirts commercially? I don't have a camera, so it's not like I could really participate in this contest. . . but I'd sure love to sport a cool Thalan logo!

How could the population be less than 1? I know that the information invasion tactic did this, but wouldn't you have those "unhappy" citizens left for the popluation anyway? this means one of two things - the negative population from invasions bug mentioned later in the patch list (IE, if you did the

tony: There are several civs (okay, maybe one or two) that use a similarly coded AI - you notice in the patch notes that it says that the Yor are derivative of the Drengin now. . . I believe that other races are based off of each other. of course, even if there are only, say, 5 AIs total, that's only 2 that seems to have been upgraded
