Racial Trait Disadvantages

[Taz-in-Space]

How about

Big-boy race: Large WHALE size race - components are DOUBLE sized.

Aqua race: ships have -1 to movement due to having to have water based atmosphere.

Narco-leptic race: lose 25 percent to attack and defense due to falling asleep at controls.

Lol....Complete Idiots.

-10% to research and
-10% to politics (or trade)

+ 1500 racial points for something else.

Procrastinators -25% From Space Yard Production

We'll get around to building that ship eventully

I think you're not allowed to have more than one effect going on per trait -- ie, you can have lowered repair or lowered ground combat, but not both. I could be wrong though - can anyone confirm this?

Aaah. I didn't realize that could be a problem. I just sort of assumed that it worked like some of the other attributes shown in the grid at set-up.

I added an 'unlucky' trait to my custom setup, trying to drastically increase the frequency of events but I've not had the patience/determination to run the tests and make certain that it works. It's a cool idea if it really works, though. Now if only he would implement the restrictions so you could prevent the combination of certain traits.

Name := Unlucky
Description := Twenty-five percent greater chance for bad events.

Value 2 := 0
Required Trait 1 := None
Required Trait 2 := None
Required Trait 3 := None
Restricted Trait 1 := Deeply Religious
