Wow! I feel so special!

It all sounds good to me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif One of my favorite things to do with sphere worlds/ringworlds is to assign them as homeworlds to AI races at the beginning of the game (via the map editor). It makes them into meatier opponents. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif <hr /></blockquote>I was expecting a short grumble and comment on how dull the ring world and sphere world are once you've built one. But hey, I'll admit, I build them from time to time too.

hmmm, think of that in a porportions game. it would take a LOT of troops, but all those home world cultural facilities... The AI wouldn't even need a bonus.
