Return of the Psychotic Pickled Pagan Priests

I just posted the newest Version of the Zorians in the files section. I would like any comments on them that any one may have.

(Just as a warning, some people may find them offensive)

I have heard about the Zorians, but have never seen them in action, yet. I'll check out this new Version ASAP .

Atraikius,
I am currently using them in a test game for a new AI that am writing. The Zorians are looking pretty good so far . I just noticed something with the designs, though. When scatter armor comes available, there is not enough room left for some components such as ECM, Quantum Reactors and so on. Could you set the "armor spaces per one" to zero and use armor as a misc. ability somewhere down the line after all the "important" stuff has been added, or would that screw up your designs at some other point? Just an idea.

Try something like:
Misc Ability 99 Name := Armor
Misc Ability 99 Spaces Per One := 1

Where 99 is the Last misc ability on the ship.
That way, it fills in all of the critical components specified above, then maxes out on armor. (I think)

Rollo - Have you seen them with ships using scattering armor, or was that just when they do get it that it will take up the space. They shouldn't be researching armor 4 until much later in the game, and the larger ships should be placing the quantum reactors, holy talisman, and ECM as 'Must Have' components.
