I like the optimism (or is sarcasm?)


Just really annoying when you get nearly everything you want... but have nowhere to reclaim 5 measly points.

Don't overlook 1/1100 pop efficiency.

It's kind of a "in case of emergency, break glass" option. A 9.1% reduction in pop resources for 40 points. The 35 leftover points might buy you something shiny as well.

What we need's a few good taters.

Already pushed that one as far as I can...
I've made some other changes - and have a zero point race which I think might fly (a bit like a brick, it'll fly - just not very well)

Needs more MM than I gave it on my latest test (which was somewhat hindered by a corner start and two small children, but boosted by high mineral concentrations on the HW)

It's an interesting design though, and one I think I'm happy with, just needs a game to take it into (and for the Axis to concede defeat in Lowtek)

Ah. Now I'm pretty sure I know which race you are talking about. Rolling Eyes

And yeah, I feel your pain. I've been trying for a month, on and off, to try to make something workable within those design constraints. Often I feel like I would sell an ear for just a few RW points. Smile

Ok, I'll take a kidney. But only if it's clean.

You could, y'know, always just hack your game so it'll save an illegal race. Laughing

Which of course spawns a game idea: Hacked Races. Hmm...time for a new thread.

The game in question has restrictions on settings (specifically, no econ setting moved more than 2 points from Humanoids, and no immunities).

And trying to find a race I *like* inside those restrictions is turning out to be pretty hard.

I *really* do like those immunities...
