Sorry Leviathion, the game doesn't feature tactical combat. Once the battle starts, you can't influence it anymore. I don't think that's a bad thing, since in many other games you can repair stupid strategic decisions by simply owning the AI in tactical. I have yet to find a game where the AI defeats me when numbers are equal (or even in his advantage). No such cheap tricks here. It's truly a strategy game. There are a few factors besides numbers that determine th

@ Martok : Unless I'm horribly mistaken, any kind of pre-order earns you the extra goodies. On-line, retail, Stardock, other company, USA, Canada, Europe.... None of it matters : pre-order = heaven... err... extra goodies

Reply to Issue with amount of 0 rated planets in Bug Reports Stardock Forums

Not to mention it's acid like hell The entire planet is covered by thick clouds mostly composed of sulphuric acid droplets. Add a lack of water in any form on the planet and an atmospheric pressure 90 times greater than earths, and we find a nice uninhabitable hot dead rock

Reply to How do i get a copy of the Beta? Please devs hear my plea! in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

Seconded We're so lucky to be introduced to the game this close to release. You didn't find out about the game through Penny Arcade like me did you ?

1) Maybe I should check PayPal... whether or not it needs a credit card number. It seems there's some uncertainty about this. 2) Thx Guy for the patriotic pat on the back I'll contact you when all else fails. 3) I contacted marketing@paradox yesterday. You can only order with credit card at their site so that doesn't help me. However, they told me the g

You missed the word "Flanders" in my post. I'm Belgian Seems you're in luck though. None of my family members (including uncles and aunts) have credit cards. I find myself wishing I was Dutch for the first time in my life Meh. We still have the best beer.

Ok thanks for the link... I'll check it out. Just a quick question to ease my worrying self : There ARE European retailers that carry the game right? Ones that accept pre-orders hopefully ? Greeting, Jan

European retail ? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hello all This is my first post here, so I'll swiftly introduce myself. In the past, I greatly enjoyed TBS games such as Age of Wonders and space sims like the Mac game Escape Velocity. Unlike many of the MoO2 oldbies in here , I have little experience with other games from smaller devellopers, or with the 4X genre for that matter. When I wa
