TG Contest and upgrading designs in queues

[raynor]

I think Malfador has done us a great service in adding the option to restrict a player to colonizing only their default planet type and atmosphere. IMHO, this should make it possible to play a humans only multiplayer game in a small galaxy which isn't quite so tedious.

If we restrict the game to humans only, I guess the next question to ask is: What technologies do you think unbalance the game even when used by human players who are able to effectively use and understand them?

What do you think about boarding parties? Is this technology too powerful? Or, do you think it is easy enough to defend against?

What racial weapons are too powerful? I've heard some folks thing organic armor shouldn't be allowed. What about the crystal shard weapon? In a human only game, I think I would disallow Temporal Tech for sure now that I see how fast you can build stuff with the T PSY III.

Do you think ALL racial tech should be disallowed?
