Birth of the Federation

Um...eek? Yeah, I'm definitely going with "eek"...

Thanks for the heads-up!

Ah, I see what you mean now. When you said that only the base game was free, I thought you meant that it didn't include *any* of the expansions/DLC, which I knew wasn't the case. But yes, there is still content you can purchase for GC3 separately, such as the Intrigue expansion, Precursor Worlds, Lo...

Looks like only the basic game is free, if you want the expansions you have to buy it. I'm not sure where you're getting that from, but it's incorrect. If you go the Epic store and look up the DLC for GalCiv3, you'll see that Crusades, Retribution, and Mega-Events aren't even available for sale (si...

Heh, ninja'ed. I was going to post that news myself. ;) The other nice thing is that GalCiv3 is now automatically bundled with Crusades and Retribution, its two best expansions (plus the Mega-Events DLC). So you're getting a pretty decent experience, as opposed to only getting the base game (which a...

A most excellent video!

Tethys!! Long time, no see, man! Welcome back!!

A belated Happy New Year! Good riddance to 2020!!

I've been following AotSS for...five years now? It's been a little while, at any rate. I've been interested in the project ever since I first stumbled across it. I backed it on KS as soon as the campaign launched, although you're right that things aren't looking good for it. :( It's a shame, as the ...

Hey, I'm just glad he's still alive and kicking. Thanks for the update!

Bummer to hear. On the other hand, we're probably lucky that his site was up as long as it was. and Gowron's joining. Has anyone ever found out for sure what happened to Gowron? I know it was generally speculated/assumed he passed away, but I'm curious whether we ever got any sort of confirmation.

A pretty fair review, I'd say. I don't miss some of the features you wish the game had (at least not as much), but I certainly wouldn't complain if the devs ended up adding them in at some point. Nice videos, too! They give a good overview of the game. I hope you don't mind, but I shared them over o...

I have to say, I'm really digging the latest edition of ISG's 1.2 beta update. Lots of balance changes that improve the early game flow, so you're not just hitting end-turn a bunch of times in the beginning before getting to the "good stuff". I'm finding it's a huge improvement!

Haha, I was just going to post that the new update nixes the old "capturing monsters" gimmick, as it's both a bit unbalanced, and was never intended by the developers anyway. Nice trick with the beam weapons and H3 resource(s), though, Dewbacca ! I'll definitely need to try that next time. :cool:
