Harmonics Racial Tech Area

New tech areas are fertile ground for the wild imagination.

I had great good fun a few months ago developing a field of Polymer Technologies, or "More Fun with PLastics!"

'fun with pLastics' eh....sounds about right for that LEGO shipset I work on in my spare spare spare time

Possum : Sounds like a good idea... do you still have the technology set?
Maybe we could combine them and I could start working on a major Tech-mod for SE4

We have an 'AI Mod' and a 'Sound Mod', why not a 'Tech Mod', and 'Events Mod', 'Planets Mod' and so on...

I do agree that with a prefix like Sonic it'd have to been a troop weapon.
As for everthing else, I'll restructure and re-class when I get back from the pub

I think if i was able to browse the web and post on the forum while at the pub, i might not ever get back.. of course that presumes I could also play se4 there.

2 movement per engine is overkill... they'll be zooming allong at a max speed of 19! (12 engine +3 for quantum + 3 for solar + 1 for prop. expert.)... I suggest just increasing the bonus speed by 1 maybe 2 if you increase the weight of the engines.

Hmm, I agree on the overkill front...
I was looking for a way to get more move/engine and this way it works out as 3/2 for the space required...

perhaps if I increased the size to 20Kt per engine
This way you can only have a max speed of 19 if you *seriously* skimp on other components...

Puke: Ahh... the wonders of laptops with mobile phones

Now.. if only I had a mobile phone, or a laptop

Matryx, yes, I still have it. It needs some balancing work, though.

The Planetary Siege Mortar was the most fun...
