You would design them just like any other. Add parts like "Laser Rifle II" "Body Armor IV" etc... . And to buy them you would have to pay minerals for them. They would be displayed the same way population is 1unit=1m. So lets say you made an infantry type unit "Super Dude". 5 "super dudes" would be displayed as 5m Super dude. Mabey you might even have to convert population?, mabey not.. . It also would make the "Phsyical Strength" aspect of stats make sense... .
And in terms landing on planets with opposing atmospheres mabey a part like "hostile Enviroment suit"?
I mean its just an idea but i like it...
Maybe use population as militia, just like in the original MOO? Wouldn't it be cool to be able to load up population into a transport & dump them on a planet & let them fight it out with the alien population?
