i would rather that the talisman stay the way it is.

Leave that up to the mods for changing.

We do not want our modding abilities to be removed...

Yes I agree. Keep it the way it is and mod it differently. You could mod it to cost more. Or to take up more hull space. Or both. Having it cost more and take up more space would in effect balance it. Especially if it were to go from being 50kt to like 125kt or something like that.

"At the risk of being a total mensch, would you really notice the 1%."

Yes. Because now ECM could do something against the talisman, and so could distance/stealth/defensiveness/etc.

That would simply reduce the religious talisman to a little bit more potent combat sensor and an ability in the game would be removed!
I sorry to say this again but I am completely against removing any abilities from the game.
I have the impression that more and more people forget that the most important feature of SE IV is that you can modify it yourself. Therefore I agree with the proposal of Ragnorak.

I'd like to see a confirm dialog added to the savegame menu - you have no idea how pissed off I've gotten from the many times I've accidentally saved over one of my games that I was on turn 2700.8 or some such because there ISN'T a dialog box for it and my mouse jammed while I'm going hyper from 3 days no sleep and masive quantities of no-doz just to play up that high....

g3n3r4l3n1gm4 while I agree this would be nice, I would like to see it simply default to creating a new name. Those "1:00 in the morning mistakes" can ruin your whole night.
To save myself from myself I currently save each game to its own folder. Had to learn that the hard way.
