I was thinking it might be more appropriate for them to maybe have more of a victory condition that is determined by their terra-forming of systems. Even if they do not get buffed in the sense for the short term gameplay, I would like to see a strong end game or even a more racially specific victory condition.

Well it appears that I'm a little bit late to this sower thread.

Sovereign has given a great in-depth overview of why the sowers need some help that addresses the sower's unique tech.

smiley: approval

keep up the discussion. I'm sure the Devs appreciate such thought out and meticulous feedback.

I've been thinking about how to improve them and something keeps popping up. Why are their planets only getting a 25% penalty? what if they actually tore the planet down until it was dead like a moon? but that would also result in various bonuses that go past the 80 turn limit. I'd like them to also have a late game tech that if they can achieve it, it would be like a genesis device on the planet. It would kill all life and structures on it but revive the planet in x turns.

Just an idea.

Hi, Sowers fans...the 93rd "yes they're under-powered" voter is checking in.

Congratulations on presenting such a compelling, well-reasoned case that Meedoc is now on-board. For my own part, here's my

Hi

The Sowers do have an advantage but it's also a hindrance. They are probably the race I would all ways play but mid to late game there advantage kinda drys up.

Just one more thing I have the emperor edition on steam how do I get the correct amount of points.

Well this is completely the wrong place to ask that, but you press the logo at the top left. Then you go to your account and redeem the code you get when you launch the game.

Count me in, I loved them when they first came out but they do need a bit more tweaking to make them competitive, and some changes so they actually play like the lore says they should.
