I, personally, love the Terrian style, but I also like SOME pieces from other styles, along with the DLC such as the dread lords, and the ship part packs that don't show up unless you show EVERY single piece (and then have a mile long list to contend with).  In Galciv 2 there was a 'favorites' options, which is missing from this one.  I would like it if when I make a custom race, if I could go through the entire list of parts and select which ones to use, and save that list so i can i use it for other races as well.  Also, to be able to make my own pre-set ship styles for a specific race (in game), so they don't all look like copies of other races with different colors.  The game would give a list of blank presets, (Tiny laser ship, medium rocket ship, etc) and you design the ship and name it. All done in game (because i'm sure its possible with modifying XML code, but seriously .....who wants to go cross-eyed doing that?)
