Unfortunatly in all walks of life theres a vocal minority that have the sole aim of ruining everything for everyone else and only stop when the full weight of society is brought down upon them! by which time alot of damage has already been done.

I just read the databanks ( I know shoot me now [e digicons]:omg:[/e] ) The surviving Korx are merged into the Krynn and turning it into a crime syndicate from the inside out (rise of the Korx/Krynn Alliance?) The Torians are being farmed but have the super breeder super ability so can rebuild once freed from Drengin occupation?

[quote who="Ericridge" reply="32" id="3491866"] Playing as one of hundred races to subjugate other ninety nine races is quite a worthy goal to shoot for. One would say, this is paradise to the drengin. So many enemies to enslave. [/quote] One can never have too many slaves....lol

[quote who="Seilore" reply="11" id="3488778"] Whatever happened to the tech that allows one to build late game on all possible tiles with some land that would be available that was mentioned a few streams back? I agree this will advance several planets greatly but it would be awesome to see. I'm assuming extreme worlds are coming back...
