Galactic Civilizations 3 review. By Richard Cobbett 21. A turn-based 4X strategy game with some of the snarkiest aliens around and a big enough toybox of ships and technology to leave you in.

It's like nDervish said, any unassigned legions you make will be used for transports. So you just make the general, get the five legions from that, then build the transport anywhere.I did exactly the same thing as you, by the way. Yeah, it's a drag. The transports can be re-used, by the way.

Your troops are not stationed on the enemy planet after you've invaded it (yet another counter-intuitive feature). So I've been able to do a lot of damage with a single transport, simply moving it from one undefended enemy planet to the next. You may need administrative points? I dont recall if they require them, but colony ships and constructors doIm not sure about legions either, but they seem to pool into that icon at the top of my screen naturally, and id guess population plays a heavy factor.Adding legions to planets can be annoying because sometimes the legion will be taken from another planet or the very one you want to put it on. So ill add 1 to all my colonies each time i have enough to do it in one shotI havent done much invading, but i imagine if your troop pool is empty that the transports pull from legions on the ground of the planets supporting its shipyard??edit: i feel like having a general on the planet affects how legions move around. Howrse cheats.
