Reply to Am I The Only One Bent On Galactic Dominaton? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

rofl i trade because at some point it just becomes exponential. if you manage to get trade goods, and have a good position between a few races, you can make so much bloody cash with trade it's not even funny. In my massive game I'm playing now, i've lowered taxes by 20% because still made 700bc/turn in profits, and I spend about a fifth of my revenue on military. with the profits, i simply hurry construction when i can. Trading with a couple races(the ones most compatible with you)

i also like to crush enemies, but I also like to be able to ally up and trade, if only to make sure they're useless when I wipe them out. Oftentimes I'll make sure civs surrender to me, and those who don't, well...die

Reply to Best size to play ? in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

i normally play huge, only because my pc is a piece of crap that can't load a gigantic map once more than 3 years pass. too much going on, and my on-board crappy pc can't take it(and i have excessively toned down grafs to boot) god, please give me a vid card... lol

Reply to need spoilers about galciv 1 and altarian prophecy in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

this is taken from "our story this far" located in the databanks... The Altarian Prophecy When the humans came into contact with the Altarians, it was quite a shock. The Altarians and the humans look nearly identical and even DNA tests showed that they were the same species. The Altarians were a very spiritual people and their high priest read a prophecy that had been made over 100,000 years ago that one day the Altarians would meet their cousins and that amongst th

Reply to Torian Scum ((Game Example)) in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Heh, in my game(on tough, huge map) the drengin are dominating in the middle of the map. they destroyed the torians as if they were nothing, and then the torians surrendered to me(i had been their ally, i teamed up with all factions surrounding the drengin) I'm a diplomatic powerhouse. I wish i had more influence(for whatever reason, I'm third and I own at least 8 fully (and i mean fully) upgraded influence starbases plus a few more scattered in korx territory(I'm working on converting them,

Reply to your opinions on game difficulty in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Mismatched, I must agree, if the AI built planets more efficiently, even Tough would be a good challenge. Still, I'm having a lot of fun on Tough atm, gonna have to try harder diff next game(I'm owning the map a bit too much...oh well, being a diplomatic guru kinda does that)

Reply to your opinions on game difficulty in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I currently play on TOUGH, but my first game was on NORMAL. I haven't tried harder diffs, only because i never play in maps smaller than large, so my games take a LONG time to finish, and I do have to work full-time for a living. I have some issues with game difficulty, but the AI improves on every patch, so I'm not that worried. Though I play a bit more on the diplomatic side of things...

Reply to Do you want your starbase to be upgraded into Death Star ? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

rofl, just wait 6 months and someone will have created a star-wars mod with death stars and all that stuff... though I'm happy with the current starbase settings of galciv2, I might try out a mod sometime, I just don't wanna see death stars in the main game

Reply to Who Wants a Carrier Poll to Settle This in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Somehow I think this might be a good idea. i really get annoyed with dispatching fleet upon fleet of fighters(when i feel like swarming) and transporting them in a carrier that would automatically sortie its fighter wings when it's attacked, or be used as support for your ships. I would also see a storage capacity in military starbases, maybe a tech for hangars could be researched

Reply to Surrendering: What is the rationale??? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Iraq fell like a House of Cards and will be a text book example of how to win an Invasion for years to come. The fact that we allowed most of the Iraqi Army to surrender rather than kill them (mercy...) and the surrounding nations are funneling in their terrorists by the thousands holds little interest for peopel who have been blathering Naysayers since before the USS Cole was attacked and the 1st Sanction was placed against Iraq. I must point out that a successful
