Crystalline Technology
Good Armor

Good Armor and Weapons

Psychic Technology
I DON'T KNOW

Religious Technology
The Tailisment

Temporal Technology
Good Shipyards

Can any one offer brief additional info for each of these. Thanks.
Well with Crystaline tech you get weapons that skip armour. Drawback is shields stop that, also if you rely on crystal armour than weapons that skip armour are a threat (such as weapon or engine destroyers)
Organic technology. Missiles are quicker, and you actually make use of any organics you grow. Drawback you have to grow organics, something other players ignore unless they are colonising.
Psychic tech allows you to mind control other races. When they get computers you lose your advantage.
Religious races do get Talismans, eventually, but everyone is paranoid at you getting such power and will turn on you if you appear a threat. You also get shrines
Don't know much about temporal tech.
