This add on is a lot of fun. If you have the original game it is well worth getting this expansion. If you don't have the original game get the deluxe version, it comes with the original game and the expansion. Either way you will love this game. So now you have full control over every part of this game, you can now customize everything. The new scenarios in the game are great, it forces you to be creative and learn all the cool things about this game. With the expansion you have a map editor, scenario editor, editor editor ;) and you can create all the scenarios you always wanted to create. I give this product two thumbs up.

Got around to playing this game and the expansion pack years after its release. Probably a bit jaded, but I wasn't impressed. The A.I. is very good, but there are no ship customization options, space battles are a joke (no depth), with only a handful of different ship types per race.

For a few dollars more (remember the Clint Eastwood movie?), invest in GalCiv II. That game improves on the first version in every area.

I've not played it all the way through yet(hardly at all actually) because I'm still playing through the game it expands. From what I've seen of it though it looks just as good.
