Tech support?

It is not a feature in the game.

This indeed should belong to the general area but I can confirm as well that it's not currently in the game, no indication yet that'll be in the next expansion also.
Being a mooniac I've requested this already, feel free to also post it on the wishlist....the more we request it the bigger the chance we'll get it.

Capture a Ship???

Are you mad???

Put it in the wishlist or vote for it in Igards poll.

If it is a votable option? I can't remember all the choices afterall.

If you manage to kill everything onboard that vessel without destroying it, yeah its possible only if you can read and understand their languages and equipments.

@cookie
no, it was not one of the votables but it had it's own debate and it's on the wishlist

@rising
the equipment is the same for everybody so the language would also not be a setback but killing the crew without destroying the ship in order to capture it is a classic. Anybody remembers neutron blasters and death rays? [:)]

I have seen litt... well, nothing actually - on what the next expansion will entail. Did I miss something? Was there a post from Eric outlining in general terms what is coming?

He said more or less...

Leaders/Cultural Borders/New Space Monsters

It's in the "just a quick note" thread on the main page.

You'll have to find it thru the spam though.

Yap, Erik posted in a couple of threads but this is the most solid one we've got so far

"Ok, a few more things to think about and discuss:

- Territory / Borders
- Unique Faction / Species characteristics and abilities, including victory conditions
- Leaders / Characters for each Faction, of various types and abilities, with the ability to improve

All of these will of course be open to modders"
