Aren't the other races supposed to be ugly to your race? After all, it'd be hard to hate an alien race that looked like koala bears or little fluffy kittens

On the other hand, if you look at the alien and say "Whoa, who vomitted that up?" (No offense intended Puke!

), then they'd be a lot easier to dislike (and, of course, conquer!)

Well, they look nothing like the original Phong... Original Meaning circa-SE4 for me.

As I said though, nothing a few Planetary Napalm V's won't fix.

Moving facilities around on cargo ships? That would be so useful! Then you can prefabricate an entire huge planet's worth of facilities, go colonize a planet and drop the facilities there along with units and population, and instantly it's fully developed.

But because it's so wildly 'out there' in game terms it ought to be a special technology. Something you can't develop until very late in the game when you'll be thinking of using it to fill ringworlds and sphereworlds.

Well, if you either have lots of really small facilities (so it can be explained as moving smaller industrial units around) or really huge facilities (so it can be restricted to late-game mega cargo transports) it could work...

ZeroAdunn · #89 August 15th, 2005, 06:55 PM

Actually, facility movement could just represent the movement of equipment or prefarb components that can be assembled on site. Still should take up a lot of space though.....

Will give a new meaning to the term Colony Ship... especially since space colonies are supposed to be in the game... I wonder if facilities in ship cargo can produce anything?
