Awsome ideas, pirates really need a more intresting twist, when pirates hit a planet i want to be like oh s!#t. As they carrie away my cap ship and leave my planet in ruins lol.[e digicons]:omg:[/e]
small stealth shuttle with troops used to steal and recieve artifacts, im not sure how it would work but it would make artifacts more imprtant. also the ship could act as a slower scout that drops listening posts that pick up more important info on your enemy, as well as taking over structures.
or you could retreive the artifacts by sending a troop ship to the planet, and send them back to your homeworld for more bonus-upgrades or somthing.
Thanks, i just realized that i only MiniDump after 3 games as TEC, and when i try to play Advent i only last till i have built my first cap.
How do i deal with the MiniDump issue it happens to me 5-6 times a day. :(
