[quote]What are the best ways to QUICKLY regain control of the Senate? [/quote] Unfortunately, it looks like you may need to wait until the next election. In the meantime, continue building an invasion force to make conquering your enemy easier. Did you try the suggestion of offering war as a gift? I've never done this without control of the Senate and wonder if it works...

Look for the Attack option in the Dipomacy screen (when you're talking to an AI). You can bribe AIs to attack other AIs by offering techs, BCs, ships, or systems (although I highly discourage ships or systems!). There's also an Attack option on your side of the Diplomacy screen. You can offer a "gift" of you going to war with somebody. Although this screenshot is from an older version of the game, you can see the options to go to war with the AIs on the left and right sides und

Hmmm...I thought it was 1/2 too. Have they changed that? I'm almost positive it used to be 1/2. :notsure:

[quote]Try the same strategy with default alignments and I bet as soon as the 4 Evil Civs get some ships built they'll start declaring war on you![/quote] I play all AIs at Chaotic Evil and below, while I always play good. I finally had the Drath declare war on me in my last game. Before that, I've been able to maintain relations in every game. AP certainly requires lots of different tactics to be successful, but I wouldn't say that it's that much different than before. I am en

Reply to MOO3 debate in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

[quote]I am amazed at what happened in MOO3. Here you have a great name brand with MOO1 and MOO2. All the developers needed to do was to make MOO3 evolutionary and not revolutionary. They just needed some more research skills, more races, maybe a twist or 2 in ship design and items and that's it. It would have had raving fans and lots of sales. IN fact, even better, they could have had downloadable updates for new races, research etc and got some money for this. So what did they do? They made a

If you're interested in playing "multi-player", the only method currently available is a succession game from Realms Beyond empire. I don't know if they are starting one but they have one going on right now and they usually post AARs. If you're not familiar with the succession game format, it basically is a game which one player plays a year then emails to another player to play, etc. etc. I just bumped the thread: Realms Beyond GalCiv Succession Game 5: Training Day , which ou
