Why would you want to?

AP give the game more depth.

They have v1.20 as a download. That is probably a patch. Can't you use stardock central to do the rest of the upgrade to v1.21 ?

Yes there will be one but I don't know when.

Can anybody tell which (exact) version the stand alone download on the galciv site is?

kind of "1.2"

PS. On the PC which I use for downloading patches etc. I'm not allowed to install anything, eg. SDC.

This "1.2" reveals as galciv120_update.exe from 24Feb04 16:35

At home I can install SDC, but have only a 28.8 bits/sec connection.
In the office we have fast Ethernet, but I may NOT install anything like SDC.

I don't think a protection scheme, which forces me to install software & to use a really low speed connection in order to update more than once a year (if ever??), to be more comfortable than the usual "musthave CD in drive".

I LIKE GALCIV, but am waiting now a year to update to 1.21.

18Mar04 Frogboy: "1.21 will probably come in a few weeks ..."
19Apr04 Frogboy: "1.21 pretty close ..."
22Apr04 CariElf: "1.21 will arrive around the time of AP first release ..."
3May04 Frogboy: "1.21 later this month ..."

Oh, stupid me. I forgot the question :(

Will there be a stand alone patch beyond 1.20 in 2005?

Well, we're nearly at the end of 2006 and still no stand alone patch beyond 1.20. :(
