Nanotech - yah. By "like organic but weaker" do you mean that there will autorepair? I'm guessing that it won't directly mirror the organic tech tree. I'd also guess that it would use a lot of radioactives (energy for processing) vs. using a lot of organics. The nanotech tree could definitely affect the society as well - enter the "arms-or-butter" thing. Maybe make miniaturization/nanotech a requirement for the advanced resource gathering (it's described as small robots gathering resources more efficiently after all!).

Perhaps miniaturization could be a precursor technology to nanotech and allow the small weapons for fighters, sort of stretch out the tree a little. Perhaps put a little automation branch in there also (droids, automated factories, more efficient astroid miners, automated repair a la organics but weaker, etc.) Again, I'd really like to see the non-military applications in balance with the military applications... gives the players more options.

Just my .02 $Cdn (.016 USD)

Edit - I can't spell

I hope people buy the UM, it's a great mod. As for the Omni mod, that's if and when it's ever made.

If you have to pay for them, I doubt that it will change his mind.

JimBob,

Actually, I think you have the exchange rate reversed... .02$Cdn is about $.0012US.

I can host, but although I have lots of space and unlimited transfer, that is paid for by lower bandwidth, and more downtime.

This is a shot in the dark idea if your interested. A stellar ability that flings asteroids out of orbit and turns them into drones that can bombard planets. Of course you would need an asteroid belt in the system you're attacking, and probably a cloaked ship so that a fleet can't find the culprit right off the bat. But basically a limitless supply of asteroids to fling at planets. The higher the tech level, the more asteroids you can fling in one turn.

Just an idea, if it is feasable.
