StarBase Types?

"# More types of Star Bases. (I) had one type of starbase. (II) will break it up into several different types of star bases with their own improvement trees."

I got that of f the database. I have looked all over the forums for any threads on the subject, and seeing none, I decided that this was a topic I should bring up.

What kind of starbases are there going to be in GC2? Will they be divided between military and civilian? Or between more specific types, like outpost, listening post, cultural center, research center, etc?

Also, what types should there be as well? The original GC was fairly flexible, is there a reason for going specific?

nce tweaks. At the end I don't think there is much more strategy involved, but there should be more variation possible as well as a better chance for players to make the wrong choices.

t's fully defended" any more. Note that you have to "type" your starbase even before you can add any defense to it, so the AI has the possibility to react fast.
