Well id like to know when my mines are removed (swept away)

Editing emporer name and racial description is a great idea and would be very quick to program in so i hope MM adds it. Perhaps with the events you could also have a choice of what you are told and not told so that they mines notification and other non core event notifications could be player chooseable.

I hope in the next patch, he makes it so the AI will build battlestations and fortresses on wormholes (at least in their systems) and more then only 1 or 2. This would put a little crimp in human player just coming thru them all the time and just sweeping mines or shooting up a few sats..

just some ideas mac

You know more diverse defenses surrounding wormholes will make it a lot harder - id like to see more diverse weapons types ie something that just destroys cloaking devices ?

Cloaking mines would be another if you have to retreat you can leave a nice surprise (they wouldnt work while cloaked but you could decloak - have them still undected until the enemy came across them) but if they were cloaked then the enemy would pass through normally until they become decloaked/activated by the player - would allow all sorts of fun behind enemy lines so to speak

Of course detection technology could also be developed expanding the tech tree within the game
