Hello all!
I've been playing medium sized maps (perfect size for me as I always seem to forget micromanagement things on the larger maps) and I've noticed something about the initial range for ships. My memory may be fuzzy, but in Galciv1 I swear it took approx 2 "upgrades" in range tech (unless you spent on points at the beginning) to have the ability to travel from end to end on a medium map, but it seems you can almost do this fom the get-go in Galciv2 (I can get everywhere but the outermost squares at the start)...anyone know if range has been extended? If so this blows as it messes up part of the strategy on a medium map (go for range to possibly get more planets, spend elsewhere and rely on chance/luck?).
Thank you kindly!
