Reply to IM a republic and I dont have the voting power to go to war! Help in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Aarggh I did lose an election. I dont remember that happening. Very inconvenient. Demanding a Surrender is not one of the options. I keep asking for all their planets but only once works, the same for money. The relations dont continue to drop. If everyone is happy at the time of election under the party that is not mine, will I be able to regain the election? I guess all I can do is plop an influence base right on top of them, see how

Reply to Expanded too fast. Maintenance cost > Tax revenue in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I started over and found I have to save most of the early hoarded cash to survive the cash burn until Population/Taxes start to slowly rise over Maintenance. In that game I had too many Class 4's and its 12 BC just for the colony.

Im pretty much at a loss too. I think I am playing fairly well with what I have, I colonize early and survive the cash burn of the early game. I have some good planets but I am way behind on tech, and the civs always start to declare war on me because Im weak. They have already invaded a couple of my planets and I havent even built a ship with weapons on it yet. Diplomacy tends to be negative

Expanded too fast. Maintenance cost > Tax revenue in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I colonized too many planets right awa y and my maintenance costs are greater than tax revenue at 0% spending. Population very low, hence low taxes, Im in a downward spiral. Any way out?

Reply to Game is broke until they give you the option to disable shared research in Research GalCiv2 Forums

I cant trade research, nearly everyone is at war with me, not sure why. I am evil though maybe that has something to do with it. If they arent at war they are weary, plus this are friendly with each other and probably coordinate their research to research different things then trade it. Can I ask what you guys do when you have a class 4 or 5 planet, is that a good choice to build all research buildings?

Im at 50% research playing 9 enemies, huge galaxy, bright, and Im way behind in everything. The enemies have all the tech

Custom Civilization characteristics imbalance in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

If you remove all of the bonuses from the the civ when you customize their traits, you get 10 points. PlUS you get their innate LOGISTICS and MINITURIZATION bonuses. So why does pick the YOR that has the highest LOGISTICS and good MINITURIZATION and then choose your 10 points??

Reply to How do I combine a fleet with a starbase? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Do the starbases AFFECT your ships or add it own weapons to the fight? For example, all your ships have lasers and you build a Rail gun module on the starbase, does the rail gun module become useless or does it add Railguns to the fight?

Reply to Why isnt there Specials to add to ships or Upgraded weapons? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I agree with Caael. Missing all the specials and weapon upgrades is a huge letdown IMO. Whats wrong with adding specials to the modules menu. Laser 2 research should also allow Laser 1 heavy mount, or inflict more damage than laser 1. It shouldnt always be about, ooh, it takes 1 less space. Also, damage ratings of 1, 2, 3 should be more specific and tell you how many hit points it takes out. Armour and shields should reduce a % this. If it is 1, does a

All those specials and upgradable weapons made all the combat fun of MOO2. GalCiv2's laser1, laser2, laser3, laser 4, laser 5 is pretty lame. I havent even gotten a new beam weapon yet and the game is almost won by conquest.

Why isnt there Specials to add to ships or Upgraded weapons? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I miss MOO2 ship design. Battle pods, time warp facilitators, Heavy Armor, Structural Analyzer, Damper Fields. Weapons: heavy mount, merv, shield piercing. GalCiv2 ship design isnt as sophisticated as MOO2. Also, Im trying to add bling to my ships but the "Place" button is grayed out. How do I add cosmetics?

Planet defense questions in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I have a ship in my system and want to use it to defend the system, not just a planet. I have tried putting it in Guard or Sentry Mode and have had several instances where enemy troops ships fly by unhindered to invade my planet, I didnt even know they were there until they invaded. Why didnt my ship intercept it? Also, what is the point of having your ships defend a planet when any fleets they were in will be disbanded when you fly them to

Reply to Population growth rate? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

hmmm, yes. that would explain it. I wish the population cap listed on the planet screen would display the actual cap and not the food cap. I guess I can scrap those farms then. I wish there was a Galactapedia in the game

Im talking about population growth RATES. Why does one of my planets stagnate at 3 billion people when the cap is 21? Everyone is happy and plenty to eat. Where can you view the growth rate?
