Legion:
System Capital : lowers % of moral due to the distance between the system and the homeworld

Mr_Pleasington:
Good one!  Belongs under Assets, though, as it would be something you would buy with income.  

I would limit these to one per race.  You can also invest in a Hyper Relay Station to decrease the same thing.

The Jade Knight:
These seem to be more "civilization"-style racial attributes, rather than actual attributes of the aliens themselves.  For example, in a battle (particularly a land battle), would things like size, extra senses (such as heat detection), natural armour, etc., come into play?  How would this be handled?

Mr_Pleasington:
You're right, JadeKnight, these are like civ traits.  That's the goal.

As for the racial traits (armor bonus, etc) those will be covered in unit design.  Players will be able to design their own units (probably in pre-game) and can add such features.

That said, it's early in the design and we could make it so one of their Racial Qualities is something like this.  That would work just fine.

Of course, we can't do anything about that until a certain someboy actually can hammer out a combat system....

The Jade Knight:
I see.
