Tiles and Quality

March 17, 2005 5:55:37 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
So do big planets really matter anymore? say 5 crappy planets have the same amount of usable tiles as 2 good ones. So do 5 crappy planets == 2 good? Only real benifit I see is that it takes less colony ships for the 2 good

Bigger planets have the potential to have more tiles.

Ultimately, it's about the planet class. And larger planets are more likely to be a higher planet class.

ughts of course in order to avoid too much micriomanagement should only a few of those small planets be that way.

ill be able to target production centres to cripple the enemies ability to wage war (gotta love that Sun Tzu), and we will have to consider more carefully which worlds we focus our defences on if the tide of war turns against us.

we will actually have different planet sizes with different number of total tiles (eg 10x12, 8x10, 6x8, 4x6)?

If so this would be truely awesome!

different planet may actaully be different sizes. This would equate to different sizes on the galatic map and also to different numbers of tiles,

ets will be present to stop the map becoming over cluttered with gas giants. Remember that with CG2 each planet takes up it's own square.

Remember, in the original backstory of Galciv, there were, I think 15 habitable planets in the galaxy.

hat isn't to say that Mars doesn't have its own pluses, but based on GC tech, Jupiter would be more useful to a space faring society then Mars.

implement any technology upgrades on your planets - it was abstracted, which was fine for me.

Speaking for myself, I would much rather micromanage my starfleet than my colonies. That's just my two cents.

=0 ALIGN="absmiddle"> Burrowing.. yeah, sounds good. But it's still going to be a great deal more expensive to live somewhere like that. I guess that's why it cost so much to colonize a world below class 15 in Galciv.

d the number of tiles is the amount of use you get from the planet.

I like it.

PS. Saturn has water?

Is there any hope for having the tiled planetary system be an option that can be turned off?
