actually Progenitors actually breathe nitrogen [edit-and so do native lifeforms - after all they're native to a nitrogen world] - notice they're not wearing atmospheric masks, if you realy want start a new game and go meet aliens - you'll get the visual decription of alien infantry in the text.

Thanks alot Fyron, for your thoughts on combat balance. All of those sound like great ideas, and we may want to adopt many of them here. I'll be curious to see how they work in your beta testing.

Taera: Hmm...if the Progenitors and mindworms actually breathe the nitrogen, then the would be able to live on CO2 worlds as well. Balance-wise, that might actually work out very well, because the Progenitors would have a huge advantage over everyone else. They could create lots of problems for the human player. Of course, it means if a human decides to play the Progenitors, the game would be extremely easy, but that's the way it is in AC, too.
