@Rollo,
Keep up the good reports!
Am a bit busy myself currently, with the Last week being particulalry hectic play testing the mods and getting them finalised.
Incidently, the Jraenar AI is the same as the Romulan AI, with racial traits providing the only difference.
If you check the races that I have worked on, you will see that Gas Giant technology is very advanced in their research queue with Ice technology being a little further back. In my play tests, if my AI get a decent start, they grow quite massive and build impressive sized fleets.
Have fun!
Regards,
GE
