Well put.

And speaking of helping you out in a war. I've never once ever felt like that had any effect at all. The alliance itself doesn't seem to dissuade any AI from attacking, and never once in ANY 4x have I ever been anything NEAR "saved" by an Allied civilization. This dovetails into my desire to see races REALLY working together, partnerships and alliances where strengths are combined and weaknesses are shorn up. You know, like "Race with all the money" teaming up w

hell of a lot of fixes, and the AI touches are VERY nice. One thing that GalCiv stands alone with is how aggressive the AI diplomacy acts are, beyond just demands and war. Still waiting for the treaties to not be a complete pile of BS, but this should tide me over.
