The three engine traits. What do you think of them as applied to HE?

My own impressions so far -

IFE - Not as necessary due to the Mini-Coloship with Settler's Delight making the FM for pop moving irrelevant. Still nice for early scouts and so forth that can't have Settler's Delight engines on them.

NRSE - Mixed bag. On the one hand, without IFE you need at least one cheap engine that can go warp 9, and NRSE doesn't supply that Thumbs Down . As well, you have less Germanium hassles than other races, so you can better afford the ramscoops Thumbs Down . And on top of that you have no gates so have more fuel hassles Thumbs Down But you at least have the Settler's Delight Thumbs Up and have Docks everywhere to refuel Thumbs Up and don't have to worry about mass for gating Thumbs Up .

CE - Even worse than for everyone else. Because you have no gates, and more fleets, CE will hurt you far more.
