quote:Originally posted by tbontob: Q says this changes with a alien population. He seems to be saying there is no self-centering process with an captured population of an alien race. Y/N?
If yes, then in a peaceful race, wouldn't the two processes cancel each other out and all things being equal wouldn't the state of the alien population be either "happy" or "unhappy" but would not proceed any further to either extreme (i.e. Jubilant or rioting)?
1.) Yes (if using the standard value
"Natural Decrease for Other Races := 20"
but this can be modded).
2.) No: It can't cancel each other because the natural decrease is either that of your native race or the one of other races but not both combined.So, the $64,000 question is when does the alien races's take precedent (or vice-versa)?
