First off I would suggest taking Extra Durability 2SP, Increased Strength 1SP, and Natural Armor to reflect your Hi-G Homeworld.

Then I would recommend you cut back on your tech spending and take a Disad or two. Otherwise you won't have squat for Infrastructure or military.  :wink:

I wanted spaceships so Aether seemed a good idea for hyper engines, and the others seemed to be needed for capable spaceships. Psych, I don't remember(need to look it up), but it may not be needed. I hadn't planned on any opponents at first, so would have time to build a fleet. Organics could be dropped since I don't plan on sending giant insects and ferrets after my enemies. About how many points should I have for a balanced infrastructure? Alos should I have untapped fuel reserves? It seems that that would be advantages for the future.

I also noted that the mech requires tech five levels above it in order to have it. Or did I misunderstand your Albion example in pregame setup?

I rethought the design after your comments. I have not yet started the terrain purchase process. How many terrains on a size six planet? Or is it as many as you want? Maybe I should finish reading the Terrain section before asking questions?

Race Creation (space going telepaths)

Homeworld 655555P

Above average worlds(6) - 0sp
Normal Conditions for atmosphere(5) - 0sp
Normal water coverage(5) - 0sp
Normal temp (5) - 0sp
Living planet tectonics(5) - 0sp
50% water (5) - 0s[

Biology/Physiology
Dextro amino acid biology, Standard earthlike DNA - 0sp
Psionic ability
   Reading (mind-reading) - 10sp
   Dancing (defense bonus through spatial awareness) - 10sp
   Calling (interstellar psionic communication) - 5sp
Humanoid (human-like) - 0sp
Omnivore - 0sp
Natural scientists - 10sp +2 to graded scientist skill rolls
Extra Agility - 5sp grants a slot-free cost-free agility cap for infantry and fighters only.
Cultural optimism - 10sp  -10% to pop upkeep
Prime directive (+2 SP) cannot have relations with non-space-faring cultures

2sp left over so will spend them on a 10 region survey.



The Empire of Numaria - 825 pts to spend

Space Dweller- 20pts
Large Population ? 5pts
Heavy Industry ? 5pts
High finance ? 5pts

35 NP pts spent

Physics/Math      700           ?thernautics   200
Psychology     600      Psykological   100

350 NP pts   spent         

Population: 150 million ? cost NP 150pts
Housing(infrastructure): 155 million - cost NP 155pts
Industry Production Bonus: 77.5 (infrastructure/2) paid through Infrastructe cost.
Draft pool: 15 million   (10% of pop.)


135 NP pts left

Terrain Points: 60 TP (2TP per 5pt of housed pop.)

Did I miss the calc for the number of regions on a planet? I read down to space regions and didn't find it.

On a size 6 homeworld with 50% water there are 1009 potential regions. Now mind you a LOT of them will be desert, polar and such. This is just the raw amount allowed.

No, the calc is on a spreadsheet I use to calculate the regional total.

No, keep asking questions. It keeps me on my toes.  :D

Added the Infrastructure Construction Rules.

Going over the infra rules I noticed I need to seriously update my Nation Creation example by including the New Infra, Food and Energy, and the new Facility rules. I will update that document when I have finished posting the re-written ruleset.  :shock:

Added the naval Construction Rules. They look hefty but the majority is the added and reduceds caps that can be added to a design. I will reorder the different sections when I get all the new rules added.  :D

Added the Construction of Air Forces rules.

All the construction rules have been posted. So if you folks would care to give them a try and give feedback I would appreciate it.  :D
