I can tell you just from what I've played, there are bonuses to things. I play the Gremak a lot. They have a bonus to research tech that has to do with the field of Information. THey also have a group of powerful marauders that if found, can be a lot of help to you militarily. They also seem to have a 0.5% to research in general and moderate population growth?


So things like that. I'm unsure what bonuses other races have. If you're like me, you want to see the bonuses right at the beginning. Don't think they show them or allow you to select different perks yet.

The racials are still in flux, but my intent for the Asdhar racials is that the Imperials have early stargate tech, and the colonials have an early light carrier and superior fighters.

We'll see how it ends up when racials are fully implemented. The Gremak and Orthin have some pretty powerful racials as it stands.

Yeah the Phidi special wont be in till there are more secondary races, Yoral's is all those destroyer variants yes? Oh and that Flak/shotgun cannon that's not fully implemented yet.

What does the human have other than there bad starting condition? I just love the text wording, they did not lose the homeworld, they lost the homeworld, basically traveling around the galaxy with a car clicker beeping it trying to find where they parked it.

The other Human perk has to do with capturing vessels and making better use out of captured vessels.

The mechanisms are still being worked out.
