DA I see in the research the Arnorian Battle Armor is shown to be +5 Hit points . But when i go to use it in the ship builder it is +6 Armor. Since it is on its own reasearch line, wouldnt the +5 HPs be more accurate/useful?

Spygate in AARs GalCiv2 Forums

Anybody ever been wipped out by spys? I just had a challenging game were it stated raining spys.

Unbelieveable in AARs GalCiv2 Forums

Troubles 1st appeared in the form of the Peacekeepers, a race or do-gooder trouble makers. Unfortunately they were also at least 50 years advanced in military tech, everything we threw at them was easily swatted away. All my military and nodes were quickly annihilated. Later...Af

Pirate AI Bug in Bug Reports Stardock Forums
