Poll/Vote for Civil War feature

10 I would love to see this feature implemented. It would add more depth to the gameplay and a new element of stategy. As well as some more realism.

Sorry I can't see anything in it but frustration! You know the tale of Sisyphus? Just when you think you made it the unpredictable civil war will put you back at the beginning. That would be not a strategic game for me anymore but a game of chance. So for me it's 0.

Q, the civil war would NOT be a random event. There are set triggers and parameters that cause the civil war. Perhaps you didn't know this. I get the impression you think its a random event. Check out the intergalactic civil war thread overview in the named thread.

Thank you for your feedback Q

I think this is a good idea as it gives ramifications to the happiness of your people, and gives good reason to stay at war (bloodthirsty) or make peace (peaceful). A new dimension to the game is always a good thing. I give it a 10

I like the idea, along with pirates and locusts, I give it a 10, however, I think it should be put as an option because not everyone may want to use it or have it in the game, the same with pirates and locusts.

just some ideas mac

O.K. then this has been changed, because in the beginning it was thought of as a random event. Still not more than 1 for me .Sorry

Again, thanks for the feedback Q

I think you will be one of the players who toggles this option OFF in the game setup

both, definitly a 10. And make everything optional so the people who want to play the original game 'untouched' can. One question though, how would the civil war thing work for people who start with 10 planets?? All ten are 'homeworlds' are they not?
