Hey ya,
I uploaded my turn and found some interesting things. I think that from a nomadic perspective, things are a little imbalanced
i) my homeworld had the following facilities: 12 trading ports, 9 settlements, 2 homeworld strongholds and 1 nomadic ship yard.
ii) from these facilities my race starts with moderate amounts of resources,
tons of storage and no research facilities to speak of.
iii) I looked in the facilities file, and found that nomads never get anything better than nomadic ship yard I. This will be a problem, as upgrading will not be possible, and the level I facility is pretty weak to start with! I didn't look yet, but I'm guessing that I will not be able to build research facilities either.
Hope this report helps with mod balance.
