Re: Atmospheric conditioners or ringworlds?
Well, nothing conscious of course. But every time I read the description of Space Parasite, all the old memories of Alien, Alien II and other sci-fi. horrors come to mind. I just can't force myself to play such a race. Basically, it is a very Bad Press

Nothing, that is, except system after system of sparkling 100% oxy worlds, each one with a spanking enormous ringworld in the middle of it=-) |

Re: Atmospheric conditioners or ringworlds?
I'm actually working on that: every system has a system shield, all asteroid fields are in the process of being converted to planets ( 6 planet creators flying around ), ringworlds are being constructed (only 4-5 at a time because of the cost) and athmospheric converters (also only 3 systems at a time are converted because of the resource drain)
Anyway, i don't think i will complete everything because i think the AI will soon turn on me.
Luckily because of trade, they will loose a lot of trade too when they go at war with me

Re: Atmospheric conditioners or ringworlds?
Why bother with ringworlds if you can have sphereworlds?  |
