Reply to an idea... smarter pirates in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]The pirates, in my opinion, should be like mercenaries that you can hire. Say you want them to attack an enemy's trade routes. The ships would be unmarked, so the enemy couldn't attack the pirate planet directly. So the enemy would be forced to protect the transports or just leave the transports to die.[/quote] incredibly good idea. I also think instead of blowing up trade routes, pirates should instead steal, which is what they do best. After a pirate boards a trade shi

game crash in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

ok, it works like this. I'm running my super dooper empire as usual and the cursor starts to blink very rapidly. then I try to save but it won't even though it says it did. so I hit ctrl+alt+del to see what going on and there's a message saying that some file can't run, or some file isn't there, or something isn't an actual image... help plz! Edit: it happens at random occasions, but is becoming incresingly freaquent.

an idea... smarter pirates in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Maybe it would be more fun if the pirates were a bit smarter, or programed better. for instance, instead of only praying on trade routes, they could hang about galactic resources until an unprotected constructor arrives. or hide in asteriod fields until a miner arrives. I also think there should be more pirates than just 1 fleet at a time. So instead of making pirates an event, make them a constant nuisance. PS- I don't know if the devs did anything with pirates in DA,

Reply to Interplanetary Missiles in Warfare GalCiv2 Forums

It sounds cool, like the jump missiles in colony wars 2, I like those. To get these massively cool and powerful missiles to work, there will have to be some penalty so the game doesn't turn into just shooting interplanetary missiles at each other. So for them to work, I'd say the best penalty is using up a very large number of squares on the planet you build them on. First you'll need to build the missile luancher/silo, where you will luanch the missiles from, then a storage fa

Reply to Planetary invasions - reality check in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

did anyone read my post up there!?!? since you can fit an infinate # of ships inside one parsec at any one time, lets just say that when you build one, transport, you build about ten or twelve of them. Like the landing ships in star wars, you never see just one come down and then take over the entire planet!

Reply to Starbase help in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

Military starbases: Try to place these inside important star systems or between you and your enemy. They give your ships in their area of effect all kinds of bonuses, like extra attack or defense stats, faster repair, faster ships, slower enemies... etc. Economic starbases: Try to place these inside important starsystems also, especially if the planets need the bonuses... Also try to place them around major trade route intersection areas (your trade routes!). Influence starbase

Reply to Permanent Wormhole Anomalies:A Fun/Strategic/Balanced Way to Deal with Speed issues on Big Maps? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Beleive it or not, I have already made a similar permanent wormhole thread (with less word of course ). I think it's called "idea: permanent wormholes". anyway, most of the stuff going on here has already been discussed in the thread I mentioned. If you want to discuss wormholes without doing all the stuff I did all over again, go [link="https://forums.galciv2.com/?forumid=348&aid=157721#1331675"]HERE[/link], thank you

I think the problem is that there are too many smart people who play galciv2 and use the forums! (Smart people are less gulible and more secular, they question things)
