			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yes I still can&#8217;t get enough of GalCivII, it&#8217;s my favorite space strategy game right now and it was made better when they <a title="GalCivII 2.0 Release notes" href="http://forums.galciv2.com/329116">released version 2.0</a> late last year (2008). With that 2.0 update came a <a title="My first ship designer 2.0 post" href="/games/galactic-civilization-ii-20-ship-designer/">new standalone ship creator</a> and it&#8217;s that creator I&#8217;ve been playing with again.</p>
<p><span id="more-215"></span></p>
<p><strong>Look-a-Like</strong><br />
This new set of ship designs is a veritable fleet of ships based on the much loved, but little supported, <a title="The great table top miniture maker" href="http://www.games-workshop.com">Games Workshop</a> [GW] table top game <a title="Great fleet battles in this table top game" href="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/landingArmy.jsp?catId=cat200200&amp;rootCatGameStyle=specialist-games">Battle Fleet Gothic</a> [BFG].  I&#8217;ve created the fleet using the<a title="Imperial Fleet model list" href="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/armySubUnitCats.jsp?catId=cat1060035&amp;rootCatGameStyle="> Imperial ships</a> as a source for inspiration. What I&#8217;ve not tried to do is accurately recreate the BFG ship designs, not just because GW likes to protect its IPR with lawyergeddon, but because straight copying something just isn&#8217;t fun.  I&#8217;ve tried to make my own designs, while using BFG as a base and I hope you&#8217;ll be able to recognize them at least somewhat.</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE: Now for download<br />
</strong>I&#8217;ve now put these ship designs up for your free downloading pleasure. I decided to keep the file size down by only including the template files, it&#8217;s more fun to fit them out yourself anyway. The ships were designed while playing Twilight of the Arnor, so you&#8217;ll need that expansion to be able to use them. I&#8217;ve also included a readme.txt in case you either don&#8217;t know how to, or are having trouble installing the files.</p>

<p>Ok so one final Battle Fleet Gothic ship design here &#8211; one I&#8217;d forgotten I&#8217;d done &#8211; which is based on one of the <a title="Marine Strike Cruiser model" href="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat1060041&amp;prodId=prod1101872&amp;rootCatGameStyle=">larger Space Marine ships</a>.  I&#8217;ve been using this 4000 troop capacity monster to one-ship-invade planets in the later game.</p>
