greets, folks -

got galcivII a couple days ago - have played one game on simple level. (won it, at least) but there's a lot of fog.

 

-how do I make a mining starship?

-where is the printed info? (audio went out on my computer, so the videos are not as helpful as you would think)

 

that's enough for a start. I am a veteran of many 4x games (e.g. civ I through VI) so I just need the data to work with.

Hi.

You can't build mining starships like in GC2.

You can build mining starbases with constructor vessels.  Just add the mining ring once the starbase is established.  The starbase will mine all resources within it's range (displayed as a ring around the starbase/ constructor when selected.

There is no printed manual.   There's a wiki, and most info is available by mousing over an object.
