When you launch the transport ship in the first place from a planet, you should see in the lower right corner a little graph and a slider. Moving the slider to the right will increase the amount of soldiers in your transport by the millions. Then just press launch. Personally, I don't think transports should be able to be launched with no troops in them.
Stardock has repeatedly taken the position that they will NOT unregister other customers' games in favor of a new owner. It's not their business, and its not up to them to decide who should own the game. However, it is up to you to take matters in your own hands. You should notify EBgames of the issue surrounding Galactic Civilizations and second-hand ownership. If you did not purchase through EBgames, but EBay, Amazon, etc., you should follow the same course of action. Not that it w
Though I don't install mods that tweak the game any more than its been tweaked. I'm just looking for worthy events that stand up to my standards. Not to insult other peoples' mods, by all means.
I already have all your mods, except the new improvements one. [Message Edited]
Check out the thread a little further down on this forum. http://www.galciv.com/forum.asp?BID=GF&id=95665#99444 There is not going to be another patch to correct the problem. I guess you'll have to just put up with the mixture of languages.
You jerk. Where the heck are you? It's been at least a week since the XU was released. I've always waited for your stuff instead of doing it myself. Don't make me have to rely on myself for events. Don't make me, man. DON'T MAKE ME!!! (shaking 'cause I drank a whole pot of coffee, not because I'm furious) Please don't take so long. :( [Message Edited]

Sorry, but I feel like being lone for a while. I'll take both of you up on the offers when I'm ready to return to the M-Verse. Till then... On another note, it looks like I might be moving to South Korea to teach English to schoolkids for at least a year, come January 20. Plan to do some travelling in the region. Keep your fingers crossed. [Message Edited]
The Fellowship of the Ring invites YUO to join its mighty alliance, in an all-or-nothing bid to reclaim teh number one spot over all other empires! Alternatively, G.R.O.S.S. invites you to join its ranks to secure a place as the most powerful alliance of them all.

On smaller maps, I try to lure the sharks into enemy territory, then hit a wormhole in the hopes it'll send me far away. I've used this to my advantage, and watching the military of other races plummet. [Message Edited]
Heh. They revamped it, implemented new changes over a year or so with an event they called "The Shattering". And they took out Lizardmen. And introduced PKers. But they can only be bad guys and can only kill other players.
Thanks Ray, vincible, Theoden. I'll return someday. I'm currently involved with the MUD Realms of Despair. Of all the fantasy MUDs I've played it ranks high up there.
Hi, looks like everyone in the Fellowship is enjoying themselves. I'm glad to see it has matured further instead of falling apart - not that there were any signs of such. I've been fooling around with MUDs lately after a long hiatus. Enjoy yourselves.
Too cool. Can't wait. C'mon, where are all the 5k players?
I got it earlier yesterday. I had to turn off my antivirus and adware blocking software/firewall, then it worked.
Yes, something like that. Frogboy released a couple of screenshots that were vastly different from what we're familiar with. They were from the GalCiv beta builds; perhaps those are what you've seen.
I'd buy it direct if I wasn't already a Drengin. Truthfully, I'd much rather see Stardock restrict the release of the patch to only SDC, and never release the EU as a standalone download from the site.
You'll have to download Stardock Central first. It's not a very big download in the least; no more than a meg. I don't quite remember. Anyway, Brad said that the non-Stardock Central expansion pack will be released next week, but I'm having my doubts about that.
Like Mayito7777 mentioned, you need to upgrade to the latest build. In the initial retail version, the Universalists and Industrialists were left out (or is it the Populists?) You can download the expansion pack, which should be released sometime today. The bonus pack contains addons to the game, such as new ships, political parties, etc. and is highly recommended since it enhances the game experience. The Expanded Universe pack will contain redone game graphics, tweaks to the user interface
Try rebooting your system. Seems to work for me.

World War I started in 1914.
While the AI may not know how to use them, while playing on "challenging" once I saw the Arceans had began construction on a Star. That one star base got as far as the Bridge before I smited them.
If an AI perceives any weakness in your civilization, then it will take advantage of that weakness and exploit it (you). I know what you are referring to, as it has happened to me before. Especially if you lack an average tech level, the AI will usually declare war on you. No matter what, get those Translators asap. They help out loads to put those Arceans in their place. Building measly starfighters by the dozens will do wonders to you military level, even if the AI's ships could crush you
I've had trouble submitting games to the Metaverse ever since I downloaded Beta 3; fact is that I cannot submit, period. Clicking submit repeatedly does nothing. Cheats are not on.

That's a splendid idea.
