Well I like to have an efficient race and some of the items posted in that article I didn't even know about (like adv storage effecting facilities as well as cargo...i thought it was just cargo space). I don't fully agree with everything in the article, I tend to think that the adv supply usage is handy for extra range until you finally get quantum reactors and the racial traits can be neat if your playing a race where it makes some sense but overall the article was great.
BTW Imperator, thanks for that tip on sending ships into unknown space, I didn't know you could do that either
