As you might have noticed, GalCiv 2 has a fair number of star names that are references to other works of science fiction. Sometimes, this has led to amusing coincidences. For instance, in my current game as the Altarians, I and my Torian allies are making an all out effort to stop the Drengin from destroying my main military starbase... at Hoth:

(sadly, the name is just a little off the bottom of the screenshot)

That Drengin "fleet" is actually 40-50 Super Dominator Corvettes and a half-dozen frigates (which are much more advanced than the corvettes) stacked together. I haven't actually played out the Battle of Hoth yet, but if it goes anything like its namesake, my allies and I may be in trouble.

This isn't the first time I've seen or heard of something like this. On the Milky Way map, I once had a major battle with the Yor at Wolf 359 (okay, so technically it was with a ship the Drengin gave them that went pirate when they died, but still), and, off-site, this guy (though in his TOA review, not the one I linked to) went to hilarious extremes in order to use a Terror Star to blow up the "Alderan" star system.

So, anything like this ever happen to anyone else?
