Reply to Galactic Achievements? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Thanks for the replies. It seems some building description are just wrong and devs need to fix those to reflect their correct effect. Also, since I bought and installed DA, I've been having a lot of game crashes. I have a feeling this expansion is not finished properly or maybe was not tested enough or something?! When trying to play the campaign, I get to mission 2, and if I try to restart mission (Ctrl+N) to get a better start (tile bonuses) and chose restart mission option from

Well I built pretty much everything, and of the most (supposedly) civ-wide buildings had only localised effects. The one that tipped me off was Omega Research Center I think.

Galactic Achievements? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Hi all, I have a concern about some of the Galactic Achievements and Trade Goods and what have you. According to the description, Wiki and some posts here, all of these buildings should have a civilization-wide effect, unless noted otherwise in the description, and indeed there are some that mention that their effect is only for the planet they are build upon. However, I played a game yesterday and I build most of these buildings (the civ-wide effect ones), yet I

Thats one thing that always bugged me about Moo2. How exactly can a human impersonate a Melkar? How would one find a treacherous machine? I think they are called Meklar not Melkar.

Reply to Campaign Mission #5 Bug in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Yeah weirdly enough restarting the same mission can have different impact on the allies AI. Sometimes, they expand more, be more agressive, go into research more or be more helpful, but mainly it's all on ur shoulders. They do serve as nice buyers for ur techs. Get ur diplomacy up more and u can sell them for higher prices. Also you may be able to trade (trade routes) with them for good profit as well. And they may capture some excellent wepon tha

Reply to Salvation campaign mission in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

All i did is focus researching into range and engines mainly. I built starbases down toward the Uthin planet and tried to extend my range. I then sent 2-3bil troops and 1 fighter and conquered the planet. The dread lords were already in and kiling the bases near my planets, but I kept rebuilding my range bases to get to the planet. So mainly u need some troops a fighter to clear the little ships in orbit and some fast engines (warp engine at least) and

Reply to Hearts & Minds Mission Question in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Isnt it the mission where you have to colonize / conquer a planet? Just get that planet and u will win, and next mission Torians will be automatically ur allies. check ur mission objectives. it is that one if i am not mistaken.

Reply to Galactic Civilizations is not Master of Orion in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

I'm an old timer when it comes to games, and I've played MoO 1 since its release for so many years when I was still at college. Then MoO 2 came out and it was just perfect. I've played it till very recently cause there was no better. I was waiting for Moo3 for so many years, and I was so excited the day I got it. So, I installed my dear Moo3 and was utterly shocked and disgusted to say the least. I stood there for hours fumbling with the game, and for the life of me I could not unders

Reply to What do you do on the Siege level (campaign) in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

This mission was tricky. But it is doable. I started off with 100% spending since you start with 30k of money. I restarted game several times (crtl+N) until i had some nice bonus tiles, onne of which was the Precursor mine (+700% prod) on my capital planet (woohooo) . I had 2 planets with research focus and the main doing prod. I colonised a new planet, and i was doing ok, but the DL soon came and took that planet with 10 soldiers vs 30
