I think there should be an option to create a custom race's home system. The ten races in the game now have differing home systems with various PQ levels; for instance, the Terrans have 10/4, Altarians have 12/3, and Thalans have 15/0. You could have a certain number of points to allocate, like when choosing racial abilities or starting technologies. Maybe you could choose the appearance of the worlds as well.

Occasionally, the UP comes up with a proposal suggesting that the economic leader share X% of their income with all others for the next Y years. Every AI player always votes 'no'. Why even propose it, then?

This seems to be the only related topic, so I'll post here. I've played with Good alignment as the Terrans and Altarians, and the news robots are different.

If so, is there any way to select for a custom race?

I'm currently playing as the Altarian Republic, and when scrolling in the diplomacy screen there are two instances of 'Alan Bradley: Terran Alliance'. I'm playing with all races (no minors have shown up), and the extra is between the Iconians (last on the list) and the real Terran Alliance (first). It has the same technologies as the real TA, but no ships or planets.

I would love to see some Dr Who style races, Darleks, Cybermen, etc Maybe I am just showing my age! Perhaps (DW premiered in 1963), perhaps not (it's recently been revived and new episodes are being made now). Twenty-six old and two new seasons provide plenty of material. The Daleks and Cybermen would have to be included, of course. Possibly the

Ah, I see. One more question: What good is the Subspace Blaster? It's the next beam weapon after Disruptors III, but it's larger, more expensive, and doesn't do any more damage.

I posted the following before in the 1.4 thread (https://forums.galciv2.com/index.aspx?aid=133988&p=2), but everyone was busy talking about something else, so I figured I'd ask here. I have a few questions/comments: 1. In my current game, I was sizing up the Yor Collective when I noticed they hadn't colonized Iconia V for some reason. I checked their star system, and it turns out that they have a very good reason: It wasn't there. I know it used to be there; I have an old save

I have a few questions/comments: 1. In my current game, I was sizing up the Yor Collective when I noticed they hadn't colonized Iconia V for some reason. I checked their star system, and it turns out that they have a very good reason: It wasn't there. I know it used to be there; I have an old save file with it. What happened to Iconia V? 2. Concerning unarmed defenders: I know that they are built to stop transports from just going in to thake planets. However, why are some buil

+ Updated Achille's heel, Apocalypse, and Pathfinder missions in the campaign based on player feedback. I'm currently playing Apocalypse. If I were to install the patch and try to load my save of it, what would happen?
