Today I changed an important option in the Start New Battle menu. I removed the “Technology Race” because I realized would be pointless, since my game is heavily combat-focused, so there aren’t so many technologies to allow a proper technology race (like happens in Civilization games for example).

So I replaced it instead with another cool idea I had: each faction, beside a normal ship blueprint for each ship class, will have also another ship with a unique weapon, that will be available only if you conquer a specific starsystem containing an alien relic (his position will randomly change at beginning of each match to increase variety of gameplay).

This means for example that the Blood Legion will have, as scout ship, the Wildcat ship as the normal regular ship, but also the Fang ship that has the special attack “suicide bomb”, that will be unlocked only if you have conquered the starsystem containing that specific alien technology.

This game is getting really cool, I’m eager to play it myself! 😀
