This is a description of what I did to import the White Star into GC2 including: Exporting from Freespace, Importing into 3DS Max, Texturing and the adding of dummies/hardpoints.

Its pretty straight forward and for the experienced modder or modeller won't contain much if anything new, but I was asked to write something like this so here we go.

Two new political parties: The Imperialists (think Cylons, Goa’uld) and The Isolationists (the Vulcans, the Asgard). I created these because I wanted a political party that could be militaristic without being evil (an idealized Roman Empire comes to mind) and of course I had to create its counterweight; contemplative civilizations that could protect themselves if need be.

**** REQUIRES v1.1 or later of Galactic Civilizations II ****

“The Imperialist Party believes that there are only two real choices, to either be predator or prey. Their entire focus is on conquest for the sake of their own survival. Choosing this party will give your civilization a 30% bonus to military production and a 20% bonus to espionage.”

“The Isolationists are strong believers in keeping to themselves. Disagreements and discord between civilizations are distractions from true progress. Choosing this party will increase your research and loyalty by 15% each.”

I saw there is a Rebel Alliance insignia here, so I thought, for fairness sake, that we should have the Imperial logo here, too. So here it is.

When I heard that Stardock was providing a Technology Tree, "this" is what I hoped it would look like.

This is only the 'Non-Weapon Related' portion of the Tech Tree. I really don't see a point of doing a graphical representaion of the Weapons & Defense trees, as they seem to be better looked at in spreadsheet form.

When printing these out, be sure to use the 'Legal' settings & paper for your printer (or else 'shrink' it down to fit on standard 'Letter' size).

I've gone over it pretty carefully, but as Frogboy says: "Bugs sometime make it through"
