Hey Ryika, I was sick this week and just wanted to say your mod was the perfect remedy and I couldn't put it down sometimes even feeling as bad as I was. Just won a turn 361 Commonwealth Victory, followed by Contact a few turns later. Was about to stick it out ten turns for Emancipation, but...

Loving the update so far! That KP nerf was well deserved, and all the other sponsor changes seem very interesting as well. I like the way the Commonwealth is move involved, and look forward to gaining their approval through legitimate (and nefarious) ways! Perhaps reputation should take a hit...

I have absolutely zero problem with that. I know there are modders who say you should never implement a system the AI cannot understand, but the moonbase is by far my favorite new feature-from both a lore and a gameplay perspective. Even if I focus on it less in later playthroughs, there are...

Alright, so quick question. Is the AI actually capable of 'solving' the moonbase? Because, like I said, I started way behind on it but even in the late game, I'm the only one who has finished the first stage of the quest with the three starter buildings. Do the AI just not prioritize building...

Alright, just getting out of the midgame and finally playing around with empire manager, tier II Virtues, moonbase and everything. Wow, I am beyond impressed! So far, I have eight cities, two metropolises, three industrial, and three power grids set up. I thought I could be clever and just...

Wow, Ryika, you have really outdone yourself! Been playing the early game and really enjoying the total revamp you did to the aliens, buildings, virtues and techs so far. Still pretty early into the game-is it normal not to have any stations spawn in the first hundred turns? Also, so far...

All right, I figured that was the end of the quest. Any chance you could have the reward be a free Earth Settler? The Purity Victory Quest is notoriously more difficult than the others, so just one free settler before getting the gate operational wouldn't be too broken. I don't know if you...

I was a bit skeptical of this mod at first, but it really is an impressive set of changes. In particular, I really enjoyed the new signal quests, with the wonder building. Going purity, I was working on the New Eden version of this quest, and took the build 5 terrascape path. However, after...

Wow Ryika, that is some serious progress. You, machievelli, and lilgamefreak have really done a number making this game playable again. If you are still looking for an extra beta tester, I'd be happy to give it a go and send you some feedback!

Loving the look of those reforms! I'm not sure if you'd rather steer clear of it for obvious reasons, but any chance we could have an "interrogation" reform that has international diplo penalties or bonuses for how you treat POWs? (Maybe interacting with CBPs negative modifier for stealing...

Sounds exciting! Would increased Wonder Production work as an incentive for high Prosperity-surely more developed/affluent/whatever societies are going to have more resources at hand undergo these projects.

Wow, I never thought someone would beat JFD to Sovereigntry. That empire manager feature looks amazing, and I'm really excited for enactments (hopefully some Alpha Centauari style wackyness). Could you explain how the moon base feature works? The part about tying it into the contact victory...

For example, I believe the most recent GalCiv game has events on founding new cities (er, planets) that let you specialize that particular settlement a bit more. Would be cool to have a set of founding events to keep things interesting for wide players-maybe a free unit for settling x tiles...

Along the same line of thought, in my most recent game I picked up that one policy/wonder (can't remember) that gave GA points for spending Great People, and by the end of the game I was pretty much rolling a perpetual Golden Age because of how many GPs I was getting/faith buying. This is even...

Just wanted to say that after getting everything working, I'm really enjoying the new epitaph system! So far, I've gotten two different ones through events, and I've noticed the AIs are getting them too, which is awesome. Both the events had me make some pretty hard choices between GA points...
