Re: Galciv2: Dark Avatar gets a 9.0 in IGN

I bought Gal Civ I and played it several times. The AI was very, very challenging. But I didn't like the combat. I also didn't like that you set spending rates for ALL your planets at the same time....

Re: SE5 Modding Tools

I put /sev when I meant /se5. It's fixed now. Seems like every other day I make that mistake with spaceempiresv.com vs. spaceempires5.com. Thanks for letting me know.
