New Lost Treasures DLC for Galactic Civilizations III - Now Available!

from GalCiv3 Forums

Discover the Secrets of Long Forgotten Worlds
in the new Lost Treasures DLC for Galactic Civilizations III!
 Guide your empire into a new age of prosperity as you handle brand new unexpected events and challenges


New Colony Events
As you colonize planets, new colonization events will challenge your people and your integrity. Each new event provides new Ideology choices that may award unique planetary improvements and ship components. Some of these events appear later in the game, so keep your eyes open!

New Improvements
During your explorations, you will uncover new and unique planetary improvements that may function differently based on your Ideology choice. Choose wisely - you can only build one improvement of each type per empire!

New Ship Components
Discover dozens of new and powerful ship components like the "Ancient Singularity Cannon", "Subspace Splinter", and the "Hyper Gate Core". Your Ideology Choice may affect how these new components work on your ship. Work fast against your enemies - each of these ancient treasures is unique and you can only have one in a fleet at a time.

Get the new "Lost Treasures" DLC on Steam or at Stardock.

Ooo a nice surprise. I'll have to start a new game this evening as I presume I need to restart to get these new effects.

If the mod works with 1.81, it should work with the DLC

Hey, Stardock, listen up!  You guys are delivering new patches and DLC so fast I can't finish a game before you release another one.  Dammit, I'm gonna have to quit my job, give up any social life (like I had one), and give up all other games to keep up with you.

Seriously, I'm so glad I chose to become a founder.

Amen brother! I've never regretted one moment becoming a founder, one of the best choices I've made in a long time!

I am not laughing -- that would be beneath my dignity, but i can't deny there is a little internal smirk welling up that i find is hard to suppress. ^_^

Reply #16 from GalCiv3 Forums Top

Internal smirks are all very good, but the truth is that you would have spent less if you shopped the Steam sales, which I did to gift a copy to a family member.  

Still, that person doesn't have this DLC, and I may or may not have gloated about that yesterday evening.  ;)

I am not a founder. I have bought the game + all but one of the DLC's at full price and was happy to do so, money well spent. Still cheaper than one good night out! :grin:

Loving this new DLC.   :thumbsup:   The new colonization events are very welcome, as are the new components/improvements.  It's making me play a game where I colonize more worlds than normal just so I can try to see them all. ;P

Also as I poke around a bit, I think I'll love the next DLC even more.  No words from me on it right now though.  Want to keep it a surprise, after all. :X :X :X

I do have concerns about balance on smaller maps with some of these weapon components.  I'm wondering if they need a >1 galactic resource cost attached to their building requirements or some adjustment to cost and mass.

Does the A.I know how the play this DLC.I am seeing reports that is does not use the new goods in this dlc.

It should use most of them, if they unlock them. All I see that would prevent the AI from using them are the improvements that are defined as Defense or Military, since the default AI Governors are not keyed to build any of these types of improvements, and that has been around since I started playing in December.

Blah blah when do we get a tool to create custom factions with custom shipsstyles instead every patch seems to mess up modded shipstyles. I wonder why?

I use ALOT of custom shipstyles and I have not had a single issue with the patches.

Man, that decision to be a Elite Founder looks better and better every passing DLC.

Which reminds me:  I'm no longer seeing my Founder's Badge. Nor do I see them for anyone else who I *know* is a founder. Whazzup wit dat?
