1UP: Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor Review

1UP writes: "A lenient appraiser might declare my Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor regime "opportunistic," but glass-half-empty types would probably peg it as downright schizophrenic. My rise to power saw radical shifts in ethics and governance that led to a four-front war, altruistic acts of interspecies kindness, and the deaths of roughly 400,000,000,000 beings. I used the cure to an intergalactic epidemic as an economic sponge to soak up the treasuries of afflicted civilizations, annihilated every minor tribe within my sphere of influence in a single turn of methodical genocide, triggered supernovas in planetary systems that wouldn't bow to my culture with the newly introduced Terror Stars, and negotiated peace between warring factions no less than six times."
