2 Questions: Organics and Remote Mining

Submitted by magogian on Sat, 2006-10-21 10:14. Space Empires V General

First, what is the benefit of the organic technology. For example, why use organic frigates vs normal frigates.

Second, what tech do I have to research to be able to mine asteriods?

Thanks for the help!

Organics and remote mining

Well, organincs get access to their own tech tree. And yes Organic armor regenerates.

As fr remote Mining I hear you need to have mineral mining at lvl 10. I'm at lvl 5 now

The costs are different. Instead of focusing on minerals, it shifts the focus to organics. When I expand with an organic race I focus on farms to feed my organic ships and organic components.

You have to reach tech level 10 in Minerals Extraction, Organics Extraction, or Radioactives Extraction to get the remote miner component.

Two more benefits of Organics.

Submitted by aran on Sat, 2006-10-21 14:08.

You can build two unique facilities with Organics techs.

1.) DNA Recoding Facility - Gives you a bonus to happiness and reproduction system-wide.
2.) Gestation Vats - Gives you a bonus to reproduction and prevents plagues system-wide.

I've found DNA Recoding Facilities to be quite useful.

Balance Mod Hulls

Submitted by Captain Kwok on Sat, 2006-10-21 14:36.

In re: to racial trait hulls, the Balance Mod does differentiate them more than stock. Organic Hulls get some built-in regeneration ability for organic armor, and Crystalline ships reduce the damage from beam weapons by a small percentage.
