They improved the game and fixed many issues so I would say it's a solid game with this DLC.

It's 4X game so you will spend much time in it which, in my calculations, is a money well spent.

Crusade is a great DLC that adds lots of new game features to GalCiv3. It's so good that really if you are going to pick up the base game youCrusade is a great DLC that adds lots of new game features to GalCiv3. It's so good that really if you are going to pick up the base game you really should get the Crusade DLC as well for the best gameplay experience. Buggy on release it has taken some negative review flak but the devs were quick to release updates and continue to work on further updates as I write this. Have played two full games so far on small and medium maps and had a blast. They are working on a Ludicrous map size for those that like longer games that are epic in size. Reckon this will be my go-to 4x strategy game for some time to come. Recommended.

Is the expansion ambitious? Probably. But that doesn't matter when it is released in such a poor state. CTD and stuck turns are far tooIs the expansion ambitious? Probably. But that doesn't matter when it is released in such a poor state. CTD and stuck turns are far too frequent to be acceptable. Best to give this 6 - 12 months before considering to jump in.
