I think it would be great if GC3 were to make the jump to RTS. Also, i think that the research tree is a bit redundant and confuse, A BIT, nothing else. Make the campaign a bit more accessible, and torse in some better graphics, and it's the perfect combination [e digicons]5*[/e]

You have to defeat them both. What i did was kiss the korath ass first and them rebuild my fleet to the max and striked with everything at the DL.
[quote who="LTjim" reply="7" id="2474866"]Go back to a save game just before one of those space battles that you lost. Click on the enemy ship or fleet. Compare the enemy attack factor, defense factor, and hitpoints to the ship/fleet of yours. Compare the enemy attack weapon (beam? missile? gun?) to your defense (shield? anti-missile? armor?), and yours to that of the enemy. In general, it is best to have your weapon not match the enemy's defense, while it i
[quote who="Maiden666" reply="6" id="2474853"]If you are fighting against the Dread Lords (in GalCiv2 DL), then you have to be fast - fast in taking over their planet. That´s the best you can do. There´s usually no way of defeating them once their homeworld is built-up and they produe +200 ATT ships. Because the Dread Lords starts with the whole Techtree already rersearched (like in the 'Battle of the Gods'-Szenario) and the only thing that keeps them from getting a good star
[quote who="arunodayt" reply="5" id="2474817"]DL is the original game - Dread Lords. DA is the first expansion - Dark Avatar. TA is the last expansion - Twilight of the Arnor. Since you didn't know what these meant, I daresay you can't have read everything The only reason that you can lose like that is because of the tech difference. You are possibly up against the dread lords, who are insanely powerful - they took out my 14B planets with just a 1B
[quote who="arunodayt" reply="2" id="2474540"]Campaigns are not for noobsor even decent players, IMO. The few times that I have tried a campaign, I have been largely unsuccessful. I strongly suggest you play a sandbox game - the "New Game" button or the "Metaverse" button. Don't lose faith in the game because it is a great game and you will lose out on it. Try a normal campaign game and tell us what problems are you facing. Or what your doubts are. In the meantime, you can find a l
[quote who="LTjim" reply="1" id="2474247"]DL, DA, or TA? What difficulty level? You might play some sandbox games first. If you have trouble there, tell us how big a galaxy, what galaxy settings, how many AIs, how many minor races, etc. There are some tutorials out there. Hopefully, someone will provide some links.[/quote] What's DL, DA or TA? I play the campaign, with the humans, normal difficulty, sm
Hi! I'm a noob to this game. I like strategy games and have played others with a lot of success. But i don't seem to be able to understand this game fully... I start the campaign and get allways beaten-up by my enemies. They have less ships than i do, less planets, do less research, less population, yet they manage to overcome my ships and invade my planets as if i had no ships or no troops defending my planets at all... I keep researching everything and try to build a
