Reply to Are custom races inferior to the pre-made ones? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

The AIs in DA get an added bonus that puts them numerically beyond what a custom race can have. However, this only comes into effect if you decide to beef up the AIs by giving them even more attributesin the EDIT section. If you leave them at their base, you can better them in almost every single category (ie. influence, mil/soc production, planet quality, weapons, hit points, econ, etc.). Personally, I prefer playing the cutom race just to focus my character.

I like using a diplomacy bonus when going for a diplomatic or an influential victory. Plus, in DL the computer just throws money at you for techs.

Reply to Which are the best Racial Attributes? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

It always depends on the stratagem you employ. Personally, I like combing max economics, with a 20 to 30 per cent military boost (the game is based around ships and military really just means «ships». You could also max out trade as it comes in extremely handy unless you play on either huge or large maps. But if I have a plan in mind before I play, I would cater the attributes to that goal: military: weapons, military production, hit points/defence, repair maybe, etc.; alliance: diplomacy, in

Oh yeah, and just to be 100% sure, could I just download the Russian version from Stardock if I have no such luck?

Hello. I am interested in playing the game in Russian in order to practice my Russian. I am currently in Moscow and have been unable to find the game. Does anyone know the name of a store that sells the game here? Obviously this is a question directed at employees. Cheers.
