My favorite race
(custom race) 		What I like most about
Master of Orion II 		What I dislike most about
Master of Orion II
  • Food Production -0.5
  • Science Research +1
  • Ship Defense -10
  • Ground Combat -10
  • Spying -10
  • Unification
  • Large Home World
  • Creative
  • Warlord
  • Good graphics and presentation.
  • More control over colony management.
  • Much better tactical combat, no
    more 64000 small ships to fight against.
  • More diplomatic options in the
    game than Master of Orion I.
  • Get to create your own race
  • Not limited to 5 different classes of
    ships and gets to name individual ships .
  • Can hire heroes.




  • Too few good planets and too many bad planets
  • Each planet holds too few people, Earth
    has over 6 billion people, but a large
    terran planet in the game can only
    have 14 million colonists.
  • Can only research one technology in
    each field if the race is not creative, a
    bit unrealistic and give creative race
    (Psilons) too much advantage.
  • Computer oponents cheats too much on
    harder levels, better AI than cheating
    would make the game more fun.
  • Can only hire 8 heroes.
