addedCrusade Expansion-Only Updates:New Content More missions, more money (and probably more problems).

Adjustments have also been made to the cost of specialty vessels such as constructors or colony ships. Galaxy Setup : More anomalies are available to explore early on in the game than there were before. The number of planets, stars, and habitable planets have also been substantially increased.
changedBase Game, Galactic Civilizations III Updates:Performance : Some of the optimizations for Crusade have been ported over to create faster turn times and improve the general framerate.
