Atmospheric conditioners or ringworlds?

Proportions seems like a fun mod but isn't play generally slow. I mean if it takes so long to travel and build pop, the games should Last longer right?
Also, i'm not sure if i like that culture thingie that takes so long to build (don't know the exact name). I know it's main purpose is to emphasize the importance of the homeworld but i think that importance is bit overdone.

Otherwise it seems fun especially since planets have more cargo capability so more planetary defenses can be build.
I think i will try this mod when my current solo game is over.

So do most mods. Try P&N or FQM Deluxe for other mods with better storage values.

One of the beauty of Proportions is that you simply can not capture enough aliens to fill all
your Domed Planets.

It is called Replicant Centers. Sure, only +1-4 mil per turn, but that is a huge amount in Proportions.

I resent one and every organic manipulation races. Temporal is the only decent race trait ! (IMHO of course

) Occasionally I play Crystalline, but Organic send shievers down my spine.

What is so bad about Organic race trait?

You know, I bet you'll have tons of fun playing Adamant Mod (when it is done), as there will be plenty of those organic races to smite.

In a PBW game I'm in I now have 75 breathable planets in my 6 colonized systems and 6 ringworlds.
Even the tiny moons have breathable atmosphere now!
And I'm not even in any of the top two positions.
I wen't with atm conv first and then started building my ringworlds.

Now off to conquer the rest of the galaxy!

Well, nothing conscious of course. But every time I read the description of Space Parasite, all the old memories of Alien, Alien II and other sci-fi. horrors come to mind. I just can't force myself to play such a race. Basically, it is a very Bad Press

Still, nothing beats system after system of 100% oxy worlds, sparkling in in the sun [Big Grin]

It is truly beautiful. *sniff* Pfft I prefer gas

Love those gaseous anomalies LOL
