Alright, well I just decided to play a game of GalCiv II again as I haven't played in quite some time. I loaded up Twilight as I hadn't played this version before, only to come upon some really strange things happening in my game.
The first thing that happened was an enemy space station was invisible. I tried to take a defense point only to find that this invisible space station was there. On a reset, it appeared, so not that big of a deal.
Next I noticed that many of my ships were displaying an attack of 1 when they should have an attack of 2. It seems that, as I picked Altareans with a -20% in attack, they seem to be losing an attack value of 1. From what I recall in past games, these +20% or -20% don't really take effect until later as the game would round off the numbers. Am I wrong here in what I remember or did something change in Twilight? After all, an attack of 2 should not be rounded down to a 1 with only a -20% attack (or -19% to be specific, in my case).
Finally, I received a very odd battle result just a second ago. The Yor decided to attack me while they had some freighters in my area. I then go and start destroying them. The first couple times I send a single 1 attack ship to take them out; no problem. The freighters do have an attack of 1, due to a decree I'm pretty sure.
But then, one freighter moves by a small fleet of mine (total 4 ships with a combined 4 missile attack 2 missile defense). I just take the fleet over to attack and it moves to the battle mode. Now, get this, during the battle, not a single one of my ships scored a hit after a few rounds. I'm confused and so just decide to hit done and find my entire fleet gets destroyed by a 1 hp 1 missile attack freighter. I even double checked afterward to make sure this was just a freighter and, sure enough, it was.
Can anyone clarify what's the deal with any of the above?
