If you want to win a free copy of the game, just enter the sweepstake by simply posting once below!

And again, with pants

Is the game any fun?

The game is good. I like it more than Civ IV.

I haven't had sufficient play-time to check out the AI, but word is that the AI is excellent. The AI is adaptive. If you equip your ships with lasers and win a battle, you can be sure within no-time the AI has equipped its ships with anti-laser devices so you will have to adapt your tactics continously. Read the reviews, collected in the GalCiv2 section of CFC.

I've read some reviews, but I'd rather take your opinion than theirs. I'll take a look at it, when/if I'm bored with both BF2 and civ4. But I'm looking forward to medieval2:total war, which should come at the end of the month. So somehow I seriously doubt I have time to take a look at this game.

Unless I get a free copy, obviously

Een kaal peertje .... (ligthbulb) - I never bothered to buy a proper lamp for my ceiling.

The picture was meant for my review (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=161193) and I am careful (paranoid???) in giving information over the internet. I'll see if I can find a picture of my ceiling to post here ....
