Stardock is pleased to announce the second expansion pack to Galactic Civilizations II. The new expansion pack, entitled Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor, picks up with the first expansion pack, Galactic Civilizations II: Dark Avatar left off.
Stardock went back and revamped the graphics for the game to bring them up to the state of the art. A new sound track has also been added along with updates to the computer AI. It also reintroduces the Terror Star, the ultimate weapon last seen in the original Galactic Civilizations as well as a new victory condition called Ascension. Online tournaments have also been added to allow people to compete at playing the same map and scenario and submit their scores to the GalCiv metaverse.
The expansion also includes the conclusion to the Dread Lords saga in the form of the Twilight of the Arnor campaign.
And finally, to keep the game evolving for years to come, Stardock includes a half dozen newly developed editors that will help modders and end users alike such as a map editor, scenario editor, campaign editor, tech editor, ship component editor, and much more.
The expansion pack is $29.95. It requires the previous expansion (Dark Avatar) to also be installed. New players can purchase the integrated "Ultimate Bundle" for $59.95 and get the entire Galactic Civilizations II saga.
