Re: Racial Traits, Discussion on Pro\'s/Con\'s.
I used to agree with you, but now I realize that they are all usefull in their own way.
The talisman is awesome, with a battleship you can get the firepower to take down another ship in a single volley. Even though you get it late in game that is more then enough reason to take religious. Don't forget those facilities though, they are very usefull. Especially in early game which is when you have them. Especially if you get many different kinds in one system.
The seeking paraistes aren't as uber powerfull as they once were, they are still the best seeker in the game but still. Organic armor is quite usefull but incredibly weak against anyhting that skips armor since you sacrifice shields for it. Most of their weapons aren't that crazy superior to regular ones. (well maybe not, it all depends on how you look at, and when mounts come into play they do become a bit too powerfull)
I agree that the crsytalline weapons should be beaged up a little. I think the shard cannons and Torp are fine. The problem is in an unmodded game armor is about useless and hence so are shard cannons. The energy dampner is nice though. The crystilline ray needs to be beafed up a little in my opinion.
Temporal has some excellent weapons. If you play temporal and don't use the weapons you are seriously putting yourself at a dissadvantage.
I totally agree about emotionless needing to be decreased in price.
