Galactic Civilizations II: Dark Avatar is the expansion pack for Stardock's award-winning hit strategy game, Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords. This expansion pack not only adds the usual content that expansion packs tend to do such as new opponents, new units and a new campaign. It also greatly expands the game play of Galactic Civilizations II. Stardock's goal with Galactic Civilizations II: Dark Avatar is to vastly expand the game play. It doesn't want players to have to wait until some future sequel to get these cool new features. Galactic Civilizations II is one of the highest rated PC games of 2006 and also one of the best selling. In Galactic Civilizations, player take on the role of leader of an interstellar civilization. It takes place in the 23rd century and humans (based on Earth) are one of the 12 included civilizations players can take command of (or they can design their own custom civilization). Military might, diplomatic maneuvering, technological achievement and economic power all are key elements in succeeding in the game. The expansion pack includes a new story-driven campaign that starts off where Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords left off. It also adds a host of new game elements that will significantly alter the way the game is played and vastly increase re-playability. |

Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor is the second and last expansion pack to the award-winning PC strategy game, Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords (2006). The first expansion pack, Galactic Civilizations II: Dark Avatar (2007) was an immense commercial success and won Editor’s Choice awards from G4 X-Play (5/5), GameSpy (5/5), UGO (A), Gamespot (9.1), PC Gamer (90%), 1Up (9/10), IGN (9/10), and many other sources. Dark Avatar introduced two new civilizations, a new campaign, super-abilities for civilizations, asteroid mining, unique planetary environments, and more. This second expansion pack, Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor (2008), aims to top Dark Avatar in terms of game enhancing features. It adds a new campaign concluding the Dread Lords trilogy, adds hundreds of new features, and also gives every civilization its own unique technology tree and therefore unique ships, unique planetary improvements, unique starbases and more. It also introduces a new victory condition option called Ascension, which provides a whole new way of playing the game. All of these features are wrapped in a massive graphics overhaul that takes advantage of a new technology that actually significantly reduces the memory and hardware requirements. In other words, it’s not just a lot prettier, it runs even better on lower-end machines with better graphics. |
