Strategy Guides, References, Walkthroughs - Where?

from GalCiv2 Forums

I'm looking for info on Twilight. Thinking of picking up a copy now-ish. Got a copy of the wiki but the Twilight content doesn't come up. I kind of like to know what the mechanics are and a some things about strategy going in.

Can anyone direct me to a rich vein of resources? I may be missing something, but I haven't found much hard content or lucid tips.

Ok, yes...I see what looks like some good stuff in the 'strategy' thread (imagine that! :rolleyes: ). If you don't like the question, rephrase it to focus on your favorite full strategy guides/walk throughs, your favorite cleanest reference sources and charts and lastly, the most informative/useful/content rich forum threads you've read.

I'm sure I'll end up combing the threads, but I just kind of want to know if there are the above out there so I can buy this thing and get started learning it with clear, concise sources.

Apologies also if you think this post is in the wrong place...

Thanks in advance for sharing.

Tip for getting answers: If you haven't been doing it, adding site:forums.galciv2.com to the end of a search engine (e.g. Google) entry can help you find posts around here better than the local search.

 

Also, the wiki, called the Galactopedia, found here takes it's data directly from the game. Therefore, you need the game installed to have any conent. Great for accurracy, huh? Can find it here:

The game has a pretty good basic Tutorial including some strategy ideas.  Also, playing the Campaign will guide you through different aspects of the game and require you to employ different strategies to achieve success.

I've got GCII plus both expansions.  I enjoy them.  Highly recommended and I would recommend the full bundle because Twilight of the Arnor is awesome.  A real addition to GCII not just a minor add-on.
