Sorry for the delay, I recall seeing this mentioned 2 or 3 times before so I wanted to check with a few others as well as generate a few new galaxies before responding. Seeing as I now have up to date data generated using the latest patch, available from the Downloads section of this site, I can post a reply. I really don't know what to tell you, my Game is v1.0X March 3rd, 2006 (Previous comment was based off an older build) Galaxies generated with the following settings:

#3 by Citizen bobo_fett Thanks for the advice. I appreicate it. I just reinstalled DirectX 9.0c End-User Runtime and there were no warnings or apparent failures. I'm not too fussed about graphics i just really enjoy the AI. You've given me the confidence to take a punt. But if anyone else has some contrary advice please don't be shy! <b

#8 by Citizen Yellow Jester No, it wasn't confusing, it just didn't specify exactly what bonuses they were getting and what if any penalties I was receiving. Just a lack of information is all. I knew it was going to be hard, but I was hoping they wouldn't cheat to make it hard, just be very strategical and smart about how they play.

Probably only CariElf or Frogboy would be able to provide you with exact numbers. I seem to recall Cari mentioning once, that, Theoretically, with settings maxed you could have 5000 planets. On most of the games I've played it seems 3-5 planets per star is pretty common, but you do occasionally only get 1 or 2 planets for a given star. Going with the above information, do the math, it seems very likely there's 1800 names in that Star List for a reason <img src="ht

Well that's debatable, I imagine you're likely to get a variety of answers. Stick with the Humans for the first game; I think the game actually defaults to Humans to start with. Take a look at the Galactic Civilizations II: Beginners Strategy Guide. Here's the Link https://www.galciv2.com/Journals.aspx?AID=104908

I've been watching this thread to see if it would ever get a response and I'll keep watching it... I've asked this question several times since the game was released to no avail; in chat it's gone unanswered. I've been unable to determine which is correct and as far as I know, from the responses thus far, neither has anyone else. It would appear only a Developer is going to be able to give a definitive answer to this. The Manual states: Courage gives a bonu

The readme says there is one in the manual, but I have the .pdf that came with the download version and can't find it there. That's odd, I have the download version as well and the Keyboard shortcuts are in there. Now granted they aren't listed in the Index but I ran across them on page 61 while actually looking over the manual as I ate l

#4 by Citizen Saber Cherry --snip-- So... they seem be the same thing. And I'm still left wondering which overrides the other. There's actually one Individual AI Difficulty missing on the Wiki list, Gifted, which comes immediately after Intelligent. However I've found no description of the Gifted setting anywhere. You are not
