Galactic Civilizations Wiki

Which expansion is this from? I know it's not DL. Kinda makes me NOT want to upgrade to the next set.

Side note: If I buy DA or TA, can I still play DL style free-play games?

  • Sorry about that. It's a feature from Dark Avatar. The article has been updated to reflect it. I was deeply concerned about this feature, too, but it seems to be somewhat balanced. Certain abilities (Super Breeder, Super Warrior) are more useful than others (Super Adapter, Super Trader), but, overall, it's not nearly as broken as it sounds. Myself, I detest Brad Wardell on a personal level, but I find his game design abilities to certainly be competent. The AI in TotA is much, much improved over DL (which was almost laughably bad). If you can win effortlessly at Obscene or better in DL, check out TotA. Now, the AI can give me a decent challenge at Crippling and Obscene, and I even lose once in a while. Obviously, I'm no fanboy, but if you liked DL, I'm sure you'll enjoy the expansions. I bought them mostly out of curiosity, and I don't regret the purchase. And, yes, you can still play DL games, with DL rules. In fact, most of the new features are toggleable, so you can turn them off, if you prefer. NinjaRobotPirate 10:31, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

It helps to know that they are balanced.
