Some thoughts: * I'd like invasion tactics to damage planets regardless of weather the invader conquers the planet or not. Even if I didn't capture an enemy planet, I think those asteroids I threw at it would have a lasting effect. * Race-specific invasion tactics (explained in detail later). * New varieties (sp?) of extreme planets: ice worlds, lava worlds, ect. * New Mega Events (also detailed below).

[quote]Like almost all of the WEST US doesn't make sense from any kind of realistic point of view if they are going to be new countries, whether by war or otherwise[/quote] I just made this map becuase I was bored.

[quote]i meant the ship.[/quote] I know, but when I posted the screenshot to Paint, It apparently filled in only a corner, because the default size for pictures in that program is impractically huge.
