First off, let me start by saying GalCiv2 is a great game. I didn't think anything would take me away from Civ4, but this game sure has. I'm the kind of person that likes to understand the formulas behind the moves/ choices I make. Civ4 does a great job letting me know what will happen if I do "X". Civ4 also makes it easy to understand how I am getting a certain number, like production, happiness, etc... When you "roll-over" any given icon, the game lets you know the formula and how you are getting that number. I'm trying to do the same in GalCiv2 but I just don't see how. I can't figure out how all of my numbers (production, morale, research, etc..) are derived. I have a basic idea but my numbers are always off a little. I just want to be able to understand this better. Does anyone have any suggestions or good reads that would help me? Thanks for your time!
