Research the logistics techs. Each one gives you +4 or so added to your logistics. Then you can make bigger fleets.

he wants to mod it...

Using the default install goto the folder C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\Data\English and find techtree.xml then locate the following

- [Logistics ID="Basic Logistics"]
[DisplayName]Basic Logistics[/DisplayName]
[Cost]100[/Cost]
[Description]Improves our overall logistics ability which allows for more ships in fleets.[/Description]
[Details]The ability to put more ships in our fleets and support more starbases will give us a critical strategic advantage. There is power in numbers! Also it will prevent us from feeling too lonely out in space.[/Details]

What you're looking for is the line " [LogisticsAbility]3[/LogisticsAbility] " set that to whatever you want to add that much more logistics...



I recomend doing it this way as it's faster then going into the raceconfig.xml file and moding EACH races logistics ability.


Just so you know these were origonal in less than/greater than signs and not [ ] signs - I had to do that because otherwise it would recognise the properties as HTML code -- anyway you should be able to figure it out from here

Enjoy!
