While initially Stardock planned to release a mini-add-on with around two new hulls per ship style, along with a ton of jewelry (10 hulls total, plus countless other parts),
a poll revealed that people were more interested in paying for a full-price add-on with a lot more content. The
GalCiv 2 expansion will have its own features, story, plot, etc., mapped out. Two current civilizations are getting wiped out, while a total of three new ones will be introduced, and the overall tone of the campaign will be dark. Very dark.
