New PBW Game Idea

[Rollo]

Cool idea. I have used 2 race traits in a couple of PBW games already. Was fun . I don't think that everyone would take psychic/religious (well, as it stands at least Atrocities and myself wouldn't). I haven't played P&N in ages, why would it take forever to get your empire anywhere? Devnull Mod also has crossover techs (if I remember the readme correctly, they were taken from an early P&N Version), but I find them not very well balanced. Some race combos don't get anything and others get real scary stuff like the accelarated psychic sensors. As a matter of fact, I am in the middle of on overhaul of the combo techs. Adding some new ones, tweaking others, and also making AIs that will use them. err, sorry, getting OT...

some other point, IMO 3000 race points would make things more interesting. (heh, and if you'd disable intel, you'd have some more points to play with ).
