Galactic Civilizations 2

For the other GalVic players. My favourite shipdesigns, admittedly exploits, were:

1) the Comet, using the maximum number of warp drives and 1 weapon system. This resulted in a speed of 16-24, while the AI was still at 5-6. Completely impossible for the AI to stop, when used to disrupt their trade routes and destroy basic space stations.

2) The Horus, using a transporter hull with the maximum number of sensors, resulting in insane sensor range.

You see that I always invested in propulsion technology and speed as well as miniaturization. However I heard these exploits were fixed in the current versions, and speed was toned down. So I might have to develop a better strategy next time.
