Default Re: OT: Galatcic Civilizations (GalCiv)

I played the beta and am now waiting for my CD to arrive.
The battles are Civ like and the effects of technology are sometimes abstracted (get a new weapons tech and all your ship might get +10% attack). The economy model isn't resource based and you can actually fund things through debt (purchase a colony ship and pay back money over time). The developers have also been very active on the forum (during the beta phase anyway).
Its quite a good game as long as your not expecting a MOO or SEIV clone.
