Well, for a couple of reasons. First and foremost is that I want to see a Temporal race played as a Temporal race etc. Second is that I want to get away from mixed tech ship design. I don't want someone using Organic armor and Temporal weapons or shields/Crystalline armor with Psychic weapons. You chose 1 trait and play your race with it using that trait's advantages/disadvantages.

Hey Gand. How about trades and gifts all together. And make it a rule NO TRADES NO GIFTS.

That way if you want something you will have to go to war for it....

I may take this to a vote. It does seem, in some of the games that I have played, that Tech Trading gets out of hand. It may be better in this type of game to only get what you research or take by force.
