Have you seen AI send transports to your undefended colonies during the colony rush? if the answer is "No", then don't worry about building warships. If you have already enough colony ship and are buil

[quote]I want to express my gratitude to Stardock company for its help.[/quote] Does this means that you got a valid serial ID?
unless something has changed, beta 2 is open: - to those who have pre-ordered - to those who have an active TGN subscription when the beta is available It was the case for beta 1 and I don't see why it would be different for beta 2.

[quote]If a person efficiently plays the game, he will win in less time than somewhat who is less competent.[/quote] Now, that is a pretty hard dangerous statement. And I know, it is possible to get 60K in less than 1 hour. But is it fun? The game isn't aimed toward who can achieve fastly the win. The game is aimed to be fun. BTW, what is your galaxy setting? Have you tried to play on differents setting (for stars, for habitability, for size)? My rule of thumb is: if th

I have a right to gripe when inaccurate information is posted to customers Well, looking a this thread https://www.galciv2.com/Forums.aspx?ForumID=162&AID=64347, you see that the various milestones were indicated in beginning of February.

[quote]Turn two, freighter starts it's turn in the speed zone, and has enough movement to propel it into the next speed zone, but not beyond it. Turn three...etc, continues speeding along.

Turn X+1, X+2; leaves superhighway, lands on destination, and starts over in reverse. I'm very new to this game, and haven't had much luck implementing this, but I wanted
[quote]Are you sure you have the right forum? It doesn't sound like GalCiv.[/quote] Yes it is the right forum: In Glaciv, you create you trad route by sending a freighter form one of your planets to an AI controlled planet. When you have done this, a mini-freighter appears on the map and make trip between the 2 end of the trade route. And you can make starbases on the trade route that improve speed of the mini freighter and/or the trade income associated with te htrade route when the mini fr

[quote]I'm sure that Jaguar Entertainment is not selling the game without a contract with Stardock[/quote] I won't be sure. In France, Nobilis, who was responsible of the translation into french, has a partnership with Strategy First. And it under this partnership that Galactic Civilization was available in France. I have tried to search, but does Jaguar entertainement have a website? And what was the e-mail at Stardock you have used for your complaint? (don't forget the ti
