Galactic civilisations 2 didn't work? how come?

anyway i didnt' play the first but second one is a bit hard - the campaign mode (on a descent level). but it's nice if you dont' play the campaign mode. you can set all up and let the fight begin...

i like the animated battle sequence when two fleets fight. you can watch form every angle and it makes you like being there. also i think game has nice graphics (see some custom made ships that look like modeling masterpeice). and also diplomacy works good.

the thing is it is kind of hard to get an edge over other civs. and in campaign mode the oponent is way too powerfull. i mean they send one ship and it can not be stopped at all with all your fleets (mainy because you do not poses any weapons to do so le talone ships that could carry them). so if you ask me that is too freakin hard. i mean one of their socut ships destroy all of your, your allies and enemies armada and you are supposed to stop them?!?! send the armada in and then bring their frigate or cruiser or whatever and tear it appart.

but like i said the non campaign game is extremelly fun and quite addictive...
