<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600; font-size: large;"><strong>The crew here at Stardock cares a lot about our community and the games that we produce for you.</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">That's why we're pleased to announce that version 2.20 for Galactic Civilizations II<br>is available for you today! </span></p>
<p>Even when a title is "finished" and put out to market, there are always little things we find that could use a tweak or a change here and there. We also know what it's like to enjoy an old game so much that you keep
going back to it, even when there are newer and "better" versions of it out there. </p>
<p>With help of some awesome community members, the Dev Team has taken all of the suggestions and implemented them into this update. You can find he entire change log (spoiler alert: it's long!) at the bottom of this
post.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A few words from our CEO and President, Brad Wardell:</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #ff6600; font-size: small;">"It was awesome being able to work with the fans to integrate years of their own mods and tweaks into the base game. They also gave me a long list of areas
where they thought I could improve the AI, which I used to dig into the now 10 year old AI source code base to implement."</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span style="color: #ff6600; font-size: small;"><br></span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>We hope you enjoy the update. We have an awesome community here at Stardock and are so very happy that you're a part of it. Have a great holiday season!</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span><br></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Special Thanks</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">To Antonio "Mabus" Invernizzi, Gaunathor, SilasOfBorg, Kamil "OShee" Bober, DARCA1213, Sam "MarvinKosh" Edwards. Steffem "Maiden666" Jenter, MarvinKosh,

<p dir="ltr"><span>The ultimate strategy sandbox has arrived. Jump in on launch weekend, and get a free not-for-sale DLC pack with exclusive ship parts for our early adopters.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr">We invite everyone to dive in and explore the many paths to victory of Galactic Civilizations III. The empire you forge reflects your choices, from warrior societies organized around conquest to pragmatic
economic powerhouses whose strength is in their allies.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Building an empire so culturally influential that rival worlds defect to your cause is perfectly viable, so long as you can keep their dropships from landing on your core worlds through literal
defenses or soft-power diplomatic maneuvers.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Galactic Civilizations III also brings massive improvements to one of the highest-rated strategy series of all time. The 64-bit engine boosts the maximum number of empires on a map from 16 to 100, with
a similarly dramatic explosion in possible galaxy size. The ship designer gives players total control over how they function as well as how they look. Any ship you’ve ever imagined can be created or downloaded. Each
race has its own technology tree, which unlock unique powers like self-healing starship hulls and superpowered terraforming.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Finally, online multiplayer is a franchise first. Challenge your friends, or team up to see if your allied civilizations can dominate a hostile galaxy.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Stardock is incredibly proud to present Galactic Civilizations III, and we look forward to supporting the game with free patches, DLC, and major expansions for years to come.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>As a thank-you to all of our pre-orders, Founders, Early Access players, and launch weekend players, we’re also giving away an exclusive ship parts DLC pack that is not and never will be for sale.
You’ll automatically get the DLC through your Steam client.</span></p>

GalCiv community has been working on an update for GalCiv II: Twilight of the Arnor. You can find the discussion <a href="https://forums.galciv2.com/457944/">here</a>.</p>
<p>It’s really quite a thrill to be able to work with the community on a new update to the game. I originally came from the modding community as did the VP of Stardock Entertainment (Kael – aka Fall From
Heaven). So being able to integrate the ideas, fixes, and improvements into the <em>official</em> game made by the fans is quite a joy. </p>
<p>Some of the changes necessary are requiring some code changes. Luckily, the IT team got me set up with a Windows XP VM so that I can load up Visual Studio 2003 to make those changes.</p>
<p>Stay tuned!</p>

<p>We’ve officially launched the beta! Bells are ringing, birds are singing, and it’s a beautiful day to dig up the archives of a forgotten race’s reality TV shows and use them to placate a restive populace that for some
reason doesn’t see the value in mandatory six-month stints working the factories of the nearest forgeworld.</p>
<p>To all of our Founders, thank you so much for your early support. Elite Founders, your feedback and bug reporting has been invaluable in getting Galactic Civilizations III ready for a wider audience. Fire up your
Steam client, and it should patch your install to the beta automatically.</p>
<p>To anyone waiting for Galactic Civilizations III to be regular price before diving in, you’ll have to wait a little longer. Sadly, the game is $44.99 during the beta rather than its regular $49.99 price. We beg your
forgiveness.</p>
<p>Follow the development of Galactic Civilizations III throughout the beta, ask the team your questions live, and get sneak peeks of upcoming builds every Friday on the

No Game Left Behind: Stardock Brings Update to GalCiv II!
Island Dog
v2.20 improves AI, Balance, and Gameplay
12/17/2015 1:00:00 PM
The crew here at Stardock cares a lot about our community and the games that we
produce for you.
That's why we're pleased to announce that version 2.20 for Galactic
Civilizations II
is available for you today!
Even when a title is "finished" and put out to market, there are always little
things we find that could use a tweak or a change here and there. We also know
what it's like to enjoy an old game so much that you keep going back to it, even
when there are newer and "better" versions of it out there.
With help of some awesome community members, the Dev Team has taken all of the
suggestions and implemented them into this update. You can find he entire change
log (spoiler alert: it's long!) at the bottom of this post.
A few words from our CEO and President, Brad Wardell:
"It was awesome being able to work with the fans to integrate years of their own
mods and tweaks into the base game. They also gave me a long list of areas where
they thought I could improve the AI, which I used to dig into the now 10 year
old AI source code base to implement."
We hope you enjoy the update. We have an awesome community here at Stardock and
are so very happy that you're a part of it. Have a great holiday season!
Special Thanks
To Antonio "Mabus" Invernizzi, Gaunathor, SilasOfBorg, Kamil "OShee" Bober,
DARCA1213, Sam "MarvinKosh" Edwards. Steffem "Maiden666" Jenter, MarvinKosh,
Leiavoia, Frogboy and everyone else who helped out!

Galactic Civilizations III Released!
Island Dog
5/14/2015 1:36:15 PM
The ultimate strategy sandbox has arrived. Jump in on launch weekend, and get a
free not-for-sale DLC pack with exclusive ship parts for our early adopters.
We invite everyone to dive in and explore the many paths to victory of Galactic
Civilizations III. The empire you forge reflects your choices, from warrior
societies organized around conquest to pragmatic economic powerhouses whose
strength is in their allies.
Building an empire so culturally influential that rival worlds defect to your
cause is perfectly viable, so long as you can keep their dropships from landing
on your core worlds through literal defenses or soft-power diplomatic maneuvers.
Galactic Civilizations III also brings massive improvements to one of the
highest-rated strategy series of all time. The 64-bit engine boosts the maximum
number of empires on a map from 16 to 100, with a similarly dramatic explosion
in possible galaxy size. The ship designer gives players total control over how
they function as well as how they look. Any ship you’ve ever imagined can be
created or downloaded. Each race has its own technology tree, which unlock
unique powers like self-healing starship hulls and superpowered terraforming.
Finally, online multiplayer is a franchise first. Challenge your friends, or
team up to see if your allied civilizations can dominate a hostile galaxy.
Stardock is incredibly proud to present Galactic Civilizations III, and we look
forward to supporting the game with free patches, DLC, and major expansions for
years to come.
As a thank-you to all of our pre-orders, Founders, Early Access players, and
launch weekend players, we’re also giving away an exclusive ship parts DLC pack
that is not and never will be for sale. You’ll automatically get the DLC through
your Steam client.
To purchase Galactic Civilizations III, head over to
https://www.galciv3.com/store.
Thanks for your support, and happy conquering!
Get the game and exclusive launch weekend ship parts now!
GalCiv II: Community update status
Frogboy
1/13/2015 4:44:34 PM
The GalCiv community has been working on an update for GalCiv II: Twilight of
the Arnor. You can find the discussion here.
It’s really quite a thrill to be able to work with the community on a new update
to the game. I originally came from the modding community as did the VP of
Stardock Entertainment (Kael – aka Fall From Heaven). So being able to
integrate the ideas, fixes, and improvements into the official game made by the
fans is quite a joy.
Some of the changes necessary are requiring some code changes. Luckily, the IT
team got me set up with a Windows XP VM so that I can load up Visual Studio 2003
to make those changes.
Stay tuned!
Galactic Civilizations III Beta Now Available

We’ve officially launched the beta! Bells are ringing, birds are singing, and
it’s a beautiful day to dig up the archives of a forgotten race’s reality TV
shows and use them to placate a restive populace that for some reason doesn’t
see the value in mandatory six-month stints working the factories of the nearest
forgeworld.
To all of our Founders, thank you so much for your early support. Elite
Founders, your feedback and bug reporting has been invaluable in getting
Galactic Civilizations III ready for a wider audience. Fire up your Steam
client, and it should patch your install to the beta automatically.
To anyone waiting for Galactic Civilizations III to be regular price before
diving in, you’ll have to wait a little longer. Sadly, the game is $44.99 during
the beta rather than its regular $49.99 price. We beg your forgiveness.
Follow the development of Galactic Civilizations III throughout the beta, ask
the team your questions live, and get sneak peeks of upcoming builds every
Friday on the official Stardock Twitch channel.
The Galactic Civilizations III beta includes:
* Race-specific tech trees – Each race discovers the secrets of creation in its
own way. Look out for Drengin invasions a whole age before anyone else can
pull one off.
* Ideology rework – Get an entire invasion fleet for free, take control of all
planets inside your sphere of influence, and more!
* Huge hulls – For when you absolutely, positively, have to kill every last
filthy alien in the quadrant.
* New colonization events – Thirty more events will challenge your ideology
whenever you bring the light of civilization to a new world.
* Terraforming – Maximize your adjacency bonuses by filling in gaps on your
colonies with SCIENCE!
* Map features – Durantium, Elerium, and Antimatter are now on the map, waiting
to be harvested by your starbases. Watch out for black holes!
* So much more – reworked planet traits, shipyard queues, automatic improvement
upgrading, tons of new art, vastly improved rendering (ships are so shiny
now!), the list goes on.
Read the full patch notes here.
Not a Founder? No problem! The Founders program has concluded, but you can
purchase Galactic Civilizations III during the beta for $5 off the regular price
right here.
Happy conquering!
Galactic Civilizations III is coming!
