More random events please

Would it be possible to get back the invincinble space sharks etc.? Random events which can wreck harvok on small and bigger civs? In total make the programm on purpose less predicatable? ;)

The space sharks were quite a problem in the early game, because they were effectivly invulnerable. This would result in paralysis for the entire galaxy, which isn't very good or playable (and trust me, this event should not be cataclysmic.)

However, I am in support of making them more powerful each time they appear (e.g. +5-10% weapons, defence and/or hitpoints each time they are deployed). They might eventually be invincible, but it would take a long time to occurr.

Maybe the space sharks should have power based on the overall tech level when they first appear? New minor civs tend to get "up-to-date" tech. Why shouldn't space sharks get the same benefit?

At the stage of the game where they appear, they should be tough but beatable.

one more thing, it would be neat if ships could get hijacked, and if you want your ship back, you have to pay the ransom.

Space Sharks are just that. They are sharksh that swim in space, lusting for the fresh blood released by biting delicious metallic object. They either appear randomly in space to satisfy their hunger, or break out of the zoo and start to fill their stomach on whatever they come across.

They're not sentient enough to be called a "race".
