Title: Neutral Race?
Post by: Ehndras on May 17, 2020, 08:11:04 AM: What does this option do?

They represent population that are not partaking on the effort of space exploration on your home world but are willing to help you settle new colonies in space. So you need to see them as immigrants.

In my latest game I started my faction with 2 billion at earth and another 2 billion of neutral population.

You could also at a later date use SM to lower the neutral population and increase yours as more countries align themselves to your cause.

It is in many ways a role-play tool.

So can I add a neutral NPR race as a 3rd Human-variant on Exodus Prime to supplement the oppressed Outer Rim Coalition and the mainline Altaraxian Polity?

(O.R.C. = Pre-TN - no labs; rebel & civil defense ground forces only. All tech must be stolen via intel ops. 10m pop compared to 100m Altaraxian. Maybe 5m for the neutral race, RP'd as a peaceful anti-technological splinter along the lines of the American Amish society. Blend of Neo-Luddism and Anarcho-Primitivism.)

Non-Sol starts FTW!
