[quote]Unfortunately, The Political Machine v1.1 wasn't ready by the Impulse launch so we had to hide the "Games" button from the community area for multiplayer match making. As soon as it's ready, the button will come back and players will be able to find games either there or within The Political Machine itself. Other games that will be using it include Sins of a Solar Empire, Galactic Civilizations II v2.0 , and Demigod. -- Frogboy[/quote] From <a href='https://forums.galciv2

"5 times mightier" is equivalent to "six (6) times as powerful". The "twice as strong" statement does seem a bit off though. x500% would be amazing. 1->5, 2->20,...,100->50000, etc.

I'm sure the fact that ship speeds are measured in pc/wk (parsecs/week) doesn't count as "backing canon". So, let's assume much smaller distances and much slower speeds. I'll do an example using 15,000 km between ships (less than 5% of the distance of the Earth to Luna) and 340 m/s relative speed between them (Mach 1 at sea level - less than 5% of the speed of the Space Shuttle Endeavor). Light takes 50 ms to travel that distance. So, you're aiming at a 50 ms old image and it takes an a

Covert: in open space each square represents up to a parsec, or 3.26 light YEARS. Light is very fast, but space is very big.

No one is allied at the start start, but everyone is at war with the Dread Lords. You can work together or die alone.[/quote] Since DA, selecting a scenario with a title that differs from its filename has brought up a blank description. However, if you click the details button and select the scenario's filename from that window's drop d

[quote]The "85 of 67" is an issue of the ship designer making ships as if you had max miniaturization.[/quote] Nope. With max miniaturization, the ship designer gave me a 387/300 huge hull design. The actual issue is that the designer doesn't take into account the growth of parts in relation to hull size. You can verify that by looking at the supposed sizes of the parts the computer places. On the ship design, each Doom Ray was listed as size 10 (its base size), whereas the size of a Do

Playing as Korath, I couldn't even get the AI to buy a package with both Toxic Atmosphere techs after gifting them toxic planets. I'd think that a race with 1 non-toxic planet and a dozen toxic planets would be a little more excited about raising their production capabilities from 0% to 100% on the vast majority of their planets. Aquatic is sellable because of the 2% courage boost, which should probably be added to the other extreme colonization techs as well.
