Terror Stars? Immense galaxies? The new campaign?

For me, it has to be the scenario and campaign editors, hands down. These will be godsends for all the wannabe modders out threre, me included, and I can'y wait to see what we can come up with. Anyway, those are mine, now tell us yours!

The races will feel so much more different with separate techs, weapons, buildings, etc. Can't wait for that and possibly even more ways of differentiating the races further. I'm really interested to see how this will apply to custom races, too.

*cough* Terrorstars *cough*

Although the expansion has caught my interest, things such as terrorstars and fleet support modules, the thing I'm concern about is the racial techs and structures. I'm sure you guys read the Gamespot interview talking about how the Drengin would be able to build slave pits, and how the liberators would have to decide as what to do with them.

From the interview:
...If such a world gets liberated, the slave pits are still there, leading to a moral quandary for the conqueror: keep the slave pits, or spend the money to replace them with normal factories, or something else?


The problem is, what if the Drengin, or another evil race, became good? Would the slave pits still be avialable to be made, or would they be replaced by something else? The current system of ethics in this game are already bad enough as is. I'm worried that this might add to the problem.

The unique techs, weapons, buildings per race. I've always felt that was the single thing lacking from GalCiv 1 & 2 compared to some other strategy games (whether real time or turn based).

For me? Definitly the new terror stars and fleet support modules. The amount of new wartime strategies that will enable will be fantastic, and I wholly support anything that adds more depth to ship design. I can't wait to be messing about with carrier esque support ships, or fighters that vastly increase the combat effectiveness of everything they're fleeted with.

The unique techs are next in line.
