Reply to Is this a bug?, cheese? or a legitimate tactic? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

This is mean to prevent players from sending 1 troop simply to screw up the planet Why is this not a legitimate tactic? this would be like the US bombing the enemy factories to weaken them. This would be the planetary bombardment option so many people want and ask for.

Reply to A Must Have Change in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

How about, instead of building the future eqivilent of a large coal plant, how about a SMALL fusion reactor. instead of making you able to build basic factorys, you build 1/4 of an Industrial Sector. 1/4 the cost, but only 1/4 the output, while still taking up the whole square. I think it's a nice compromise. you still have the limit of keeping to your current tech lvl, w/o being able to go below, but you can still do a reduced option.

#2. Give the ability to set rally points for ship types at a global scale.

#3. The ability to set focus to military, social, or research production on a global scale for all planets. There are many times that I want to focus on building social buildings or military when I'm about to go to war, etc. It's a pain going through each colonly individually to set that. accually, you can. you should do it from the Military/Social/Resherch sliders in the econmy tab of the domestic affairs window.

6. Drengi had mil & econ starbases right on top of each other (well, right next to each other -way too close) actualy, this now a part of the game. the new limit is 4 per sector, not 3 parsecs away, like it was before. apparently th AI handles it better.

Reply to Starbase building in Beta 1.1 in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

the AI handles it alot better than the old "3 parsec" rule (a LOT less calculations). I hope they change back to 3 per parsec. That one made more sense, seeing as the bases have a Radial Effect, not Sector based.

If GalCiv II is going to have multiple fun ways to win besides war, the UP is going to have to improve significantly. More meeting, the ability to influence the topic(s!) they vote on, plus something else I have yet to think up or see. I ask for a brainstorm on a third upgrade to the UP.
