    You know Darsnan, I actually suspected the same based on same reasons.

    If this is true, I hope that my fears about political correctness aren't true either.

      So, it will be a time/quality race for a SMACX-cIV mod between Firaxis and Apolyton ?

        I did an E-Bay search today: a copy of SMAC and SMAX going for $64 US. Another reason Firaxis might think this is the best $trategy....

        If the game is as modable as we have been led to believe, why it shouldn't be too hard to smuggle a few samples of "chemical X" into the game.....

                Perhaps the following posts by Firaxian programmer Trip (in the "Vote for SMAC2 thread) are disguised hints:

                All I'm going to say is that the modding is very powerful.

                  This is not what I meant. If they give it a try, one of my favorite factions, Believers shall probably be left out. If fundamentalism was left out of CivIII, what do you think it will happen to a fundamentalist faction?

                  Also, I would like all the old nasty stuff in, and even more. Potential of nanotechnology was never taken much into consideration - I want to combat xenofungus and other factions with grey goo.

                    Nano's should, once out of control, threaten the whole of Planet! (see Mars scenario )

                      I'd also read in one of the cIV threads that no atrocity weapons would be allowed into the game, so thats where I was coming from. Although not one of my (or most people's) favorite factions, why Miriam is still a "fundamental" part of the game....

                          Atrocities firmly belong in the Civ/Alpha Centauri series. Evil must be an option. I'll mod it in if need be.

                            how about super powered nanotech andriods? building one heralds the end of the game for EVERYONE. or maybe im going off the deep end....



                            i want on minor civs,and at LEAST 32 AI player support. i want stop scripting till i get that in,if it isnt already.ill have a guy shove pizza's under the door from time to time if i have to im weak at c++ so ill have to learn more as i go.thats my faction specalty tho

                            im going to write some ideas down tonight i think...

                            one thing i want to incorperate,and this will be the main push of my 'mod' will be a living map. so there isnt 7 or 32 civs and all emptiness....roving bands of survivors,single state CP's and bases...pirates...


                            be some serious work here tho,guys,you do realize?

                              I am afraid those two words are in conflict as IIRC "android" means a human-like robot.

                              Nanoplague would be fit, but it has a very good counterpart - EMP weapon.
