Because of a ''corrupted'' save game ( huge map, starting to crash around 280-300 turns ), I had to complete it ''in extremis'' by loading a previous auto save for a political victory instead of the ''manu military'' I wanted...... Have a high end machine + all latest drivers & updates, so I really hope 1.2 brings a solution as to fix the ''turn crash syndrome'' ( thereafter a black screen leading to desktop ) - that some ( many?...) of us are experiencing when playing mid-late games on huge map

Thanks Brad for dropping by. Btw, what about all 1.1 BETA scores? Since the new scoring system began with 1.1 BETA 3 if I remember correctly, how the few 1.1 BETA 1 & 2 will be recalculated? Keep up the great work!

After reading Brad's ambitious shedule for May, I wonder if they still have a MV recalc in their agenda? Any input from a Stardock person would be appreciated.

Probably. Even if sometimes we can continue games from earlier versions, generally it is advisable to start fresh new games when updating.

My first post in these forums..... I'm an experienced TBS player but considering I didn't play the original GalCiv for quite a long time after its 2003 release, what do you advise as the best approach to tackle the learning curve of this upcoming beast we're all awaiting for ( at least for those who didn't had the time to contribute for the beta like me ) ??? == 1) a small custom galaxy map? 2) the main SP campaign right off the bat? 3 ) is there a tutorial? Great job Star
