I was just thinking that it would be a good idea to make plagues attach themselves to population and ship crews. It would cause a player to be very careful about a plagued planet. Quarentine (sp?) will be a very important tactic to prevent the plague from spreading to other planets. When a plagued ship resupplies at a planet the plague is transferred. Also, medical facilities and components should have a percent chance per turn of curing a plague instead of a set effect. The component should have a much lower percent. Also, I think the percent chances should stack. The plague effect itself should run on a percent of infection instead of the entire planet instantly becoming infected. I think this would greatly improve this area of the game.
