i had spen a lot of time on this race and already have the ships as well

Menural-A minor race that stays in small colonies on the outer rim of the galaxy. They specialize in mineral extraction and sell them to larger empires for their much needed money. They are consider a mere merchant race for sevel thousand years and was unimportant. Then the Terran`s ever expanding empire thought to enslave them and take there minerals for free. The Menural offered the Terran`s much in minerals if they left them in peace. The Terran`s wrongfully attacked them and were crushed by the Menurals more advanced weapon systems. The Terran`s retreated and the Menurals become more than just a minor race but a race that could rule the galaxy.

Terran researchers into the problem discovered they might be of Kal-Zul decendents and possible holds the key to the disapperance of the great Kal-Zul empire

This is a very good race you have come up with. Main question is: Is the race paid or non-paid account? I believe non-paid account would be the best choice to put this race under that way so everyone can play as this race. And reading this just made me think of a race that would be a good ideal.

your mantis is far too much powerful ^^ could kill hun li...lol
it is good that u realised race that has strong ships example guardian , can only hold little colony... your race is sth like guadian ^^ is just that it earn more than guard ... no doubt the storyline u planned was interesting...

Sorry, shadow, there was a contest once (some years ago) to design a new race, and the proposals there were much betrter / balanced than yours.

that is true but terrans virals and gardians ( Collectives) are the life blood killing them off could kill them as well a draw back if you ask me

Also have to keep in mind that making a race that can make lots of cash off minerals and having better ships for fighting will make the terran race extinct.

its a work in progress yes i like your idea though thanks

What happens to the miners, then? Personally, I believe you should take away mineral generation bonus, and give them "mineral plunder" ability, where they can plunder planets for minerals instead of cash (algorithm should include mining research).
