Here is some Back Ground on AICs Centurion Systems. For anyone interested in writing a Story Line.

The optimal System that the Centurians would create their Planet would be a Trinary System. This is do to the way their culture using the Solar energy for the day to day operations of their planets.

As the centuries go on, the suns start to loose there energy and die. Until there is no Sun at all but a few dense tiny masses and what is left of the system planet.

It has been noted that the decline in systems are gradual and the reports are that some Systems range form a Young 3 star Systems, Middle age Binary Systems, and very Ancient single star System thru to the very old Dead Centurion Systems. Indicating a powerful Solar Energy Extractors of some kind pulled mass amounts of energy from their stars to the point the Stars would implode softly one by one over the Centuries.

At some eons ago, the entire Centurion civilization was stricken by a plague. Origin unknown. Never in our time has a sighting of a Centarian being been reported.

However, it is said the Building blocks of Crystallurgy was formed from the Artifacts found that where left from the Centurians. Folklore has it, that Centurians Races are ancestors of the Crystalline.

It is also thought that the Plague that wanders our quadrant now might be a form of what has been the demise of the Centurians.

It is also reported that the Fazrahrian Race has a culture spore of this deadly plague and is searching for ways to mass-produce it.

Oleg, what is the name of the ship set from your AIC race folder that the Pandoran Alliaince uses?

By renameing my set, I will load the same one all the time

Pandorans - from Atrocities site. Since it is MY race, I did't bother about AI files, simply moved all files to race/picures folder. Tweaking race setup in gane start took some time, but that' it

This is the semi-official press release about fighters scandal:
-------------
All right, I finally stopped giggilg uncontrolably about my Engineless Fighters blinder.

In fact, It should provide some nice twist to the story. Basically, Pandorans' social structure resembles ours.
And what did we get here ? The private company Oleg-and-Brothers(all rights reserved) won the multitrillion contract to supply Pandoran Navy with fighters.
To maximise the stockholders options and CEO retirement benefits, Oleg&Brothers cut the overhead cost by shipping space fighters without some overexpansive parts. Like engines for example . Naturally, all goverment inspectors have been secured. All admirals too.
It was only by the unfortunate accident of the unprovoked and cowardly (US goverment TM) attack by armed forces of rogue Jraenar regime, this small deficiency has been exposed.
The independent inquiry panel absolved the CEO of Oleg&Brothers of any criminal charges.
To ensure the best interst of public and the adequte protection of its citizens, the Goverment of Pandoran Alliance secured the contract with Oleg&Sisters consortium to supply modern fighters to Pandoran Navy.
As it is, at stardate 2407,7 the cargo space of all colonies has been inspected and cleared of combat deficient vehicles. Our Armed Forces start to receive the modernized equipment. The Prime Minister Of Pandoran Alliance is happy to announce that at no point the safety of Pandoran citizens have been compromised.

To the CEO of Oleg & Brothers:

Can you confirm the rumor that your company has just recently completed the sale of fighter jet engines to the forces of a rogue Jraenar regime?

We sell for less

sorry about my typing lately.

To JLS : take a look at First Centurian system.
There is NO picture for the asteroid field. Just blank space. This is because you can NOT specify asteroid field size in system.txt file. It is always must be "any". If you put "tiny" or any other size, SE get confused and does not assign any picture (may be even numbers - not sure) to asteroids. It is certainly a bug but we must live with it. All asteroiids must be "any".

Great ! I'm looking forward to it !

Theoretically, you can use any of my savegames for your race. Just copy race picture files to Pandoran folder in AICompain/pictures/races folder. It is impossible to change race description or name during the game though
