As the name says this is an AAR of Galactic Civilizations II. I'm not that good at this game, as i've only played three games including this one, so things might fail. In addition i have little writing skills so:crazyeye: .

Any way as you can see we are the Drengin Empire, the map there shows where every one is, but mostly i'll be using the map that shows where we've explored.
Upon opening the planatery map I see we had some good luck one district has a 700% manufacturing bonus:eek: . After a few turns we colonize a planet, mostly another planet in the system is the first colonized(rated 4), but I saw a planet in a nearby system with a rating of 12 much better than 4 so it was the first colonized

The first world colonized

After a while we have colonized several new worlds and met to races(one was minor however)but we couldn't speak to them as we didn't understand what they said, our boys in rd came up with the universal translator and we traded some tech

Good to see you got the images working :D

Nice to see a GC AAR. I bought the game recently, though I haven't had a chance to play it. Be nice to see how it plays.

We have met a great number of foriegn races, 16 of them. Our Popularity remains between 80-90. Also We have colonized many new worlds and hold the largest amount of territory. There is bad news however is that we are very weak military wise, not even a paper tiger, we have no ships with weaponry whatsoever, this will be changed soon in preperation for war.

no it's not, and my internet is acting slow recently so it might be a little while until the update.
