No Colony Ships

from GalCiv2 Forums
I was just wondering if anyone has written a game report, of a game in which they attempt to win without building any colony ships. I would be very interested in seeing how someone fares under those conditions, no matter how suicidal it is.

Perhaps its time for a little competition, to see who could get the highest score (or avoid death the longest)?

I would do it myself, but truth be told I'm a crap player. I have a very relaxed and sloppy style. I seem to approach it as a space empire simulator, rather than a strategy game.

Hmmm... tiny map, rare planets, 9 AIs, minor races enabled should ensure that just about everyone only gets one habitable world.

On Tough, that could be a pretty interesting game, actually. Must make a mental note to try that sometime instead of just playing ginormous maps.

I might try your setup V1m, but I'd like to have a go on a standard map too. If you can reach invasion and take planets as quickly as they are colonized, if might be possible to catch up.
