making factories 13/9/16 while raising your popeff to 1200 seems a bit strange to me.
The maximum resources you get are marginally lower than with 12/9/16, 1000 popeff and you gain just 10 points in the wizard.
Instinctively, it also /seems/ a little slower, but if a testbed proofs otherwise, I would be interested in the results Wink

!
The minesettings are pretty expensive and not at all my taste. I usually stay with 10/3/x, where x is number of factories operated minus 2(3) for HG's I sometimes play (and that's what you are aiming at it seems).

But it all depends on the gamesettings ofcourse. Are there a lot of planets (planets/player ratio)?
This race will need some time I think, so I guess a large or huge universe? You have got pretty good habs for an IT and I would definately considder putting them a few more clicks to the left so the terra packs more punch (16 clicks from an edge would mean you get the full benefits of the terraforming abilities).
And I would try to get rid of LSP (the 1200 popeff makes that one even worse...). I would even get rid of NRS and take prop normal (taking RS now even gains 10 points and this LRT is a musthave in the endgame). Points for this would have to come from your econ/minesettings and maybe slightly your hab, but I have a feeling they will make your economy stronger/faster. Prop9 is not too far away for an IT Wink

Just my

If you can't beat me... Run away...
