But you will need to research bigger ships first. and researching always makes something outdated like smaller ships.

Anomlies that should give experience to crew of a ship do not seem to work. The dialogue that usually shows up when someone surrenders is missing. though the icon at the bottom right is still appearing.

Personally I thought his question was answered in the first post! And i felt like there were still things to mention. Good for you, Bodyless. You've added one detail, the roll-aspect of combat, to an answer that wa

Reply to Soldering worthless? in Warfare GalCiv2 Forums

I love threads where the starter asks a question but every poster just writes offtopic and wont answer anything. He did NOT ask how to defend planets. He did NOT ask how to invade planets. He did NOT ask what games you are usually playing. He did ask WHY the AI can invade his planets despite of the fact he got far superior soldering and technology. There are a few reasons: The exact power of your troop is randomed before each battle. this is what

Reply to How can I download the German version? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

did you try changing you regional setting to german? then you should download the german version. you will need to do this anyway as the game itself also selects its language depending on your regional setting. if this doesnt help i dont know.

Reply to Bad AI behavior in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

But THEY declared war. They knew where my main fleets were located (in orbit near their own worlds), but they didn't had 1 transport ready. They didn't had 1 fleet located within striking range to wreak havoc among my fleet. Yes the devs made the ai just declare war when it thinks that you are going to attack it(to prevent a exploit where you pla

When I see the readout at the end of the battle I have inflicted 5-10 times the damage the enemy did. You know that you opponent didnt got a chance anyway and you may have as well used large ships.

Reply to Economy - How far can you push it? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Example: Think of it, you already have a +10% economic bonus (ressource? race?). If you take another +25%, you increase your revenue by only (0,25/1,1)%, since I don't think the additionnal 25% is composed with your former 10%. However, if you take a 25% morale bonus (speculation about the numbers), you may have 20% more peoples, and they ALL benefits from whatever economi

Reply to Mining Starbase in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

this may be caused by the fact that earth got much more population. the foodproduction of earth is 10mt/w and of mars 5mt/w. (without any additional farms) which means there can be alot of more people on earth. and more population causes less morale.

Reply to Starting PQs for each race and strange results with tiles in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Reply to Laboratories increasing social production? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Well, if your are not using your social production, then a part of it is spent for the military production. But when you suddenly start building anything on the planet, all social industry will be used for producing your buildings intead of ships. Which looks like you would get more social production. If this is not what you mean, i guess this it is caused by your high research spending. the game first calculates your research and industry. which leads to your learning centers to have a

Thats the whole point in rolling for each component. the numbers on the edges will be less frequently. the combat less random which was what the writer had in mind when writing. he just called it more fair.
