Oh right...forgot to post that part.

All weapons are taken out except planetary napalm.

Don't want to be a spoiler, but wouldn't Organic have a very significant advantage with their armor? That already is a somewhat viable tactic for Organic races or has the recent patch changed that - I don't play organic much anymore...

You could use drones against planets if you want to glass them. But if you take out all the direct fire wepons then there is nothing to fear in just flying up and dropping troops on the planets. No weapons platforms.

No, I would take out org armor. Might replace it with a standard armor that does what it does, but is available to everyone.

I think I would make drones, but not drone launchers...so only planets can use them. They are their only source of defense.

The entire Mod is an interesting idea, Jmenschenfresser. And the drones as planet defence, would be along the lines of ICBM's. Yes?

How about leaving in the tractor/ repulsors? Could be fun, and a viable defence for planets.
