Flying telekenetic squid-creatures! They can octuple wield!

Creatures with eyes on their arms so they can fire from behind cover without exposing vital parts of their anatomy!

As a thought, one of the things you could use magic for could be ship functions. For example, you might need to use a spell to fire missiles, and that takes a gem. Then you have to cast another spell using a different kind of gem so you can fire missiles again (in this example firing a missiles causes huge amounts of fatigue).

OK I need someone to volunteer to do graphs and I'll create a race!

I agree with llama, start with 2 races THEN get more..

so we'll need someone else to make the other race

What race are you thinking of making?

You could try using Starcraft sprites. They're probably about the right size.

I can get started on graphs. Give me a list of what we need, and don't expect art

using starcraft sprites is probably illegal (copyrights?) so I doubt it's a good thing you are advertising it.

How ever if it's NOT illegal then it should be done ASAP

Which race.. well I think starting with something basic would be best: humans, easier on the graphs too.

PS I think rhyeley should used in the near future too.. but they are a bit different so not best used as one fo the first (balance thingie)

Actually, using the Cthulhu Mythos could be an interesting idea. Though none of it is really science fiction, the Mythos does feature several star-spanning empires, not to mention the Great Old Ones (the Mythos gods, who are numerous (for gods), mind-shattering, and powerful). A race of Deep Ones, or Elder Things, or Yithians, or perhaps flying polyps, or who knows all of them combined in some terrible orgy of madness, non-Euclidian geometry, and insignificantness.

Now I really want to do this.
