For you information, you can now have giant squid in your games of SE4!

Think of the monsterous (haha, bad pun) possibilities of this fleet, and trashing enemy ships.

:in wave::

Idea for new organic shipset component: Tentacles. . . rip the hull apart.

Anyway, the Cephalopeia Fleet is available for all to download off Universal Shipyards http://universalshipyards.tripod.com so you may as go and see, along with all the other shipsets there which have kindly been put Online for download

I went to the shipyards and did not see the race you mention available for download?? Is it under the "completed" section? If not, where?

Thanx,

Jason2

How about several type random monsters that only attack specific type planets or special tech races? each one programed for a specific type and this way you wouldn't know which one would show up. Examples. monster who only attacks say organic cultures, or only Oxygen type planets, or Methane Planets, or crystall cultures, etc. Could set up several which are picked at random for each game. This way when its in the game you wouldn't automaticaly know which type it was until it attacks. each monster/monster race would each have a different attack quality as to what it would attack.

just some ideas mac

I like the idea of space monsters. But I think it would be unfair if they would attack only certain races. Make them move randomly from one warp point to the other and attack everything that lies in their path. And may be it should be a possibility to "tame/catch/board" them and then to use them yourself.
