Steve Walmsley:
Please add any comments for the Gothic IV campaign in this thread.

Ghostly:
New precursors sound very exciting! Really hope you get to face some carriers too, from them or perhaps from that multi-system NPR. One part that particularly piqued my interest is where:
--- Quote ---the Necrons adjusted their course to move around the planet
--- End quote ---
Will the AI now attempt to avoid STO defenses, or try to outrange them if it's trying to attack them? Come to think of it, it would be nice to have an intel entry for alien STO units detailing their weapon type, range and ROF, same way we do for ships.

Another thing that I thought could be a nice cosmetic addition but which will have actual gameplay relevance given the new emergence mechanics would be a list of dates on each colony summary noting when the colony was first Established, Developed (first installation added) and Populated.

There are some AI tweaks for v2.6, including consideration of alien STO locations and better use of ordnance against small targets.

Panopticon:
The AI changes seem to have significantly raised the difficulty, the Necrons out-teched you but even so that was a pretty gripping fight. The new version can't come soon enough for me.

One note though, the Inquisition was formed after the Horus Heresy, during the Great Crusade and Heresy era intelligence was handled by ad hoc groups from virtually all human factions working at cross purposes. Which I recognize might be hard to represent, just the 40k pedant in me.

Garfunkel:
Whoa, what a crazy start for this campaign!
