[GCiv] Galactic Civilizations III v1.9 update

[Island Dog]

The big v1.9 update for Galactic Civilizations III is now available!

Highlights of this update:

• Capstone Techs: Research new techs in the Age of Ascension! These techs provide large (though temporary) empire-wide bonuses that stack as you get them
• Performance Optimization: A newly enhanced multithreaded system dramatically improves load times and reduces memory usage.
• A.I. and Balance: The AI has received a bit of a boost! You’ll notice that they are smarter about expanding, building fleets, and spreading influence, and more. Ready for the challenge?
• Rich, Unique Galaxies: Performance optimizations have allowed the addition of more stars and planets, making galaxies feel even more vast than before.
