I'm not sure it merits 7.0.  Gameplay-wise, it's very close to 6.3, and much, much less of a jump than we saw after 5.6.

Considering the hell I'm going to pay with my wife for all the time I'll be putting into this next upgrade; I think that 6. 66 should be the actual version number, eh ??

It seems that Steve is doing some significant reworking of NPR AI, capabilities, and diplomacy, among other things. To me those are pretty big bullet points. I guess it doesn't really matter that much but as a programmer I would classify this as a numerical upgrade.

My Theodidactus, now I see that you are excessively simple of mind and more gullible than most. The Crystal Sphere you seek cannot be found in nature, look about you...wander the whole cosmos, and you will find nothing but the clear sweet breezes of the great ethereal ocean enclosed not by any bound

Does that mean the next version will be Spreadsheet with a vengeance?
followed by Live free or Spreadsheet? and finally A good day to Spreadsheet!

Actually the next one will shift gears entirely and be Spreadsheet III: The Clone Wars. It'll be notable for it's graphical interface but shunned for it's divergence from the root gameplay, players will be upset by the fact that instead of epic space battles and empire management, it will be a dating sim focusing on the relationships between the commander of a task force on picket duty and his ship captains.

No one knows what clones have to do with it.

A dating sim,  still using Aurora's interface...

Looks like a pretty good patch.   If Steve can get NPRs  to launch ground invasions, I will be in heaven!

NPR Ground Invasions Hell yes!, I would wet my pants. It would give those Garrison formation something to fear, other then children with rocks.
