I am a strategy nice guy. battles do not turn me on I look forward to espionage and more political stuff. I prefer to strategy using spys to destroy tech, food and water etc. And then there is the political game play. Wrap these things up with different races and away you go.
With those new specs you should be able to play Galactic Civilization VI fine. The one thing to remember with this game is it likes RAM. Yum yum.
I am using an Alien also. Intel i7 3610QM at 2.3 RAM is 16 Video is Radeon HD 7970M I run Insane fine. Wish I had your rig.
All[quote who="hardcore_gamer" reply="1" id="3610706"] lol at the racial traits. Don't know if everyone is ok with a mod like this. Some would argue it's racist. [/quote] All they need to do is not download it.
In game ?
Could putting Stardock's version of the M-F Lets Play videos on Youtube help advertising the games. Also I and others are not able to see them live and Twitch is not always an option.

To help speed things up keep the lets play but set chat people as advisors in an areas. Economy Political Manufacturing Technology Ideology etc This way reduce the amount of time to make decisions. Think of them as advisors for Chris. This will also help to show strategies in some areas.
I will look at doing that. For me it would be to make a shipset of spheres.
Was watching and I suggest that the person playing have run through it on their own first so they know the strategy side of the game.
Better yet a scenario editor would be nice StarTrek scenario StarWars scenario B5 senario etc for those that do not want to install a MOD.
This is TBS not RTS. Things work differently unless you are willing to pay lots for an improvement that few even care about in the end.
Enjoyment like Larsenex talked about is what is all about. Enjoyment is an arbitrary belief. Not a monetary value. I also found looking for bugs and going to the forum was almost 3/4 of my enjoyment. With that figure did you get the game and all DLC etc for only $25. If you did then great for you.
Could you put some pics or something of what you are working on in it. I promise not to tell. Just salivate wanting more.
In the design screen make a new ship using the original ship of the one you want to upgrade. Save it. Now go to the ship and tell it to upgrade to the new design you saved. Does that give you what you want. You can add/subtract things but the hull size will stay the same.
Building a new ship and sending it could be cheaper. Along with that upgrading ships would add micro and they want to reduce it. Like many of my wants. They sound nice but not going to happen IMHO.
Go into options and only lower the SFX. Unfortunately it will do it to all SFX not just a few selected files.
Start with campaigns and as you learn the new system you can do new games with certain goals in mind.
Another option could be to have the planets grouped by shipyard.
You have no manufacturing. You need to have some money going to military manufacturing.
I am vanilla and also see many notifications of events. And no I have not done what Enskipp did.

I like the capture starbase like capture a planet. I would add more diplomacy possibilities. My most thought of one is a surrender to me without having to totally defeat them in war. Just get them to the point of "they will not win". After the surrender then you have to clean up the rebel elements that do not change. This is where and advanced assimilation center and approval buildings would help.
Diversify, diversify, diversify. When I play as a faction that likes only one thing I usually get killed. After time when you want things to be even more difficult try combining things like Win as Drengin by Influence starting in a corner of the map. etc.
Another way to organize them could be for me to group them how ever I see fit by drag and drop. Up to Large I do not need them but the Insane. Any organization of anything helps.
Allies are solid green. Could Non-Aggression be dashed green. Also Open boarder could be a dashed yellow. All around the planet so there are not to many lines.
