Default Re: Replicant centers?

I wouldn't necessarily say the Replicant Center is too powerful. It takes an insane amount of research to acquire Replicant Center III (1,000,000 at low tech cost), which means while you are researching Replicant Centers, your neighbor is going after phased polaron beams.

I agree that Replicant centers are powerful, but there is a trade off in getting them. I always take organic technology because of the centers. The organic weapons are nice, but the Replicant Centers make the cost well worth it.

Just my opinion.

speaking of failities wityh system wide effects...

in my current VSAI game I have "borrowed" some planets from the crysonlite, and so I now have some nice crystalline facilities - I think there's one that reduces maintenence for all ships in the system and one which boosts shields.

Even though I didn't build them, these should work for me shouldn't they, ?
