there's a mega event like that, that gives a precursor artifact to a civ. makes the civ more powerful over time. I wonder if it can be modded as an increasing difficulty for all

if you start in the centre of a spiral map you are likely to get lots of planets. Why don't you play the tournament or duel maps? They are more balanced if that's what you want.

I suppose Fujiko said "convince me" to start a debate about what would be an alternative better and more fun system. This is the point of this discussion, not necessarily to convince anybody else :)

I also enjoy tech trading. Disable it in your game: and make custom factions with research priorities as high as possible. The build in races have their own personalities so maybe they don't prioritise techs.

[quote who="SirCabbage" reply="2" id="3619621"] Snip* Also, I know there are merc colony ships and merc survey ships... But I really hope they make some merc CONSTRUCTORS. Imagine how awesome it would be if you could buy a merc constructor that built a unique module on a starbase. There would be more incentive to try and capture it using the benevolent culture capture perk or by buying it... would be fun. [/quote] there ar

[quote]EDIT: One more thing that I forgot to add: Upon attacking the Arcean starbases (I tried when I was playing with the Torians) all the Beam weapons concentrated on the centre of the starbase, which made it look a bit fake, both in terms of graphics layering on each other and also tactic! On other starbases the beams all go to different places. I will try attacking the Torians with the Arceans and report back. [/quote] I tested this

[quote]Updated all faction ship thumbnails with improved graphics [/quote] Cool. However check if any of them are broken. For example I found a mistake in the Altarian ship thumbnails: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197992370530/home/ Also something that's been bugging (no pun intended) for a while. Could you remove the default faction's colour from their ship set? W

EDIT: I think your prayers have been answered. My game was just updated and it seems Mercenary cost has now become progressive. No money to begin with, only resources and then things start going up the more you hire. So the more resources you have the more you will be able to hire. Now it pays

I wanted to give my thoughts so far in a summarised form in one place, instead of posting them everywhere. Makes things easier :) In general I like the expansion. I was expecting to be a bit beefier: - More particle effects (e.g. more/different missile effects as research progresses. Could also have different effects depending on whether you chose cheaper lasers or longer ranging). I remember reading that this (unless I dreamed it?) would happen but I haven't noticed it at

A side note: I know that this is probably quite low on the priority list (mine as well!), but will there be new achievements for Mercenaries? Like finishing the game with Torians and Arceans, finishing the campaign, hiring first mercenary, using mercenary to colonize etc...
