Good suggestion or waste of time?

*heh*... Well the theme is Space Vikings. It's all hand pixelled in paintshop pro, so some of the perspective is imperfect and I haven't even started on the colouring yet. (I have nearly all the portraits done in B&W) However it's coming along, and I will probably be ready to start colouring this week.

Anyway, I was thinking loyal/ honourable warrior race (trustworthy allies but unforgiving enemies) with emphasis on heavily shielded, close range ships and fighters. No special tchs, but extra movement and high combat bonuses. Perhaps they could use boarding parties and troops as well, but I don't think the AI does these very well.

If I remember I'll post some preview pics on my webspace tonight.

"Vikings in Spaaaaaace!"

heh heh...I like it! Although IMHO you should bag the whole warrior thing and make them pillaging berserkers who give swirlies to the Rage on the weekends.
