Ever since I played a Pyschic Race and had access to the allegiance subverter I have felt as though I was cheating. The Pyschic Race has a great deal of cool things, but when ever the allegiance subverter is researched and applied, it is basically game over if playing against the AI.

I hope that no ones feels that I am stepping on shoes, but think about it. One or two frigates armed with a subverter and enough protection to get in close enough to a Dreadnaught. Well next thing you know you have a Dreadnaught and enough technology gained from analyzing it to put you in Evil empire status real quick. Or a real large fleet built with out even having high tech ship yards.

It should either cost an incrediable amount, or have a significant reduction in successfully scoring a hit.

So yeah, shave a little off the Pyschic advantages and put on the fat to the Crystalline which has some real cool techs, but nothing really worth while becuase of what it has to offer.
