Not to get ahead of this expansion, but this game is so damn good and continues to get better with every expansion. I really hope there's more to come after Star Kings

Totally agree!

It'll be like playing single maps, except the maps are all interconnected and you can carry over units, tech, relations and bonuses, plus evolve your leader between maps. So almost like a campaign, just with greater control in what you do in your next mission.

Yeah I understand it mechanic wise, but I wonder if it will be to my liking. Seems like a huge time investment, so it needs to be enjoyable to keep you going.

I am really enjoying the galaxy mode you have done a fantastic job it really adds a new layer that got me playing it with a new enthusiasm. I love the planetary trait so much it adds so much flavor but the galaxy mode also seems to lack the setting which I always apricated as being able to change climates of the planets. I assume this was done for balancing purposes, however seeing this is a single player only feature (at least if I am reading correctly) were there other reasons that settings were removed?

How high do the Complexity levels get? I've only conquered 4 worlds and options range from "very high" to "Nightmarish" ... was hoping to stick with my empire for awhile, but a little worried now ...

Ok so I was a bit surprised about finishing a planet in GE...

I maxed out my Heroes as much as I could, got such great loadouts for them becasue I thought that they will at least keep their mods... but when you're done with a map everything is gone, your saves included so I can't even go back :/ And my heroes advanced by ONE level as a reward...

This is a bit underwhelming. Yeah, ofc it makes sense from a balancing perspective, but could've they have done it so that at least your commanders keeps his loadout? I mean c'mon And I had such cool heroes to boot. Seems the strategy here is to breeze through the maps, grab those Relics and be done with it...
