Temporal have those fast ShipYards and Oranic has the Organic armor and weapons (fewer mineral requirements), so the ships can be built much, much faster than without (those two traits).

I'm no longer too fond of racial traits, so when I use 'em I tend to go for coolness factor.

Temporal - I just like the idea of a race that's capable of manipulating time

Temporal Yards, anti-shield weaponry are pretty nice too. Events Predictor helps a lot in a defensive situation as well.

Temporal + Psychic - Manipulate time + read minds

I love the psychic training facilities, but I'm not too fond of the trait itself because it encourages other empires to come and snuff me out before I get AS.

I have enough trouble mastering non racial traits. I sitck with plain vanilla.

I like Organic best because of the facilities. Gotta love those Replicant Centers!

Crystallurgy by itself (love them shard cannons), or crystallurgy+religious (love them shard cannons that never MISS).

Throw on some Shield Deploetors to knock down the target's shields before the Shards go to work, and either they have VERY deep shields, or they take non-armor hull damage with the first salvo -- which might reduce their number of guns with which to shoot BACK, always a good thing.

...

In mods like P&N, I currently prefer Crystal+Organic (GODS ... Biocrystal armor just ABSOLUTELY ROCKS ...).
