Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords beta 3 is nearly ready to go out to beta testers.  We are tentatively planning on releasing it a week from this Tuesday (Aug 30).  Shortly after that time, users who have pre-ordered GalCiv II but have not previously had access to betas will be enabled to download the beta.  But after September 1, new pre-orders will return to having to wait until beta 4 (late October).

The GalCiv.com site will begin moving towards its final state as well as work on the Metaverse begins taking shape and the site interaction will be much greater than it was in the first GalCiv.  We will be hand selecting a few active beta testers to take a sneak peek at beta 3A which will be out in September.
