How to find the last enemies
Published on Sunday, June 13, 2021 By
I just finished my first quick game - sort of:
- after invading the first race's home world they surrendered, but "blew up" the two colony worlds in their system they still owned, only the former home world was left in the system
- the second did not surrender after taking all colonies and the home world. The timeline shows their population to near-zero, but maybe not quite zero. I own all planets, so where are they hiding?
What I missed:
- some kind of "progress indicator" for invading a core world - took lots of turns, and no noticeable difference to the invaded planet's stats
- an indication that a ship is attacked - a few colony ships just vanished, and it took me some time to figure out where they "went"
- a better hint on how to enable trade routes - only figured it out near the end of the game
What I like:
- Colony ships aren't destroyed, only "captured"
- Less micro-management due to core worlds and colonies, and groups of asteroids
- Leader characters
- Choose from four / five "random" new technologies to research
Great sequel to GalCiv II (I sort of missed out on GalCiv III
