More to come soon!

I love it! Care to explain Battle Lines? Are they exactly that? A wall of Xeno ships?

I'm going to go out on a limb here but looking at the technologies and how mok is set up, I don't think players should build any mines on Mok colonies until they offer that trade bonus. That ban immunity is gonna be fun.

Also, Trade Stabilization says ERROR... I really hope that the tech works becsuse I'm scared to research it.

The ERROR is only in the text generator for the first line of a Treaty. I'll fix that for the next release.

Mines are always worth it on Mineral rich worlds, all things being equal they produce excellent income throughout the game.

Battle lines is just a moderate improvement in how the Xeno ships line up and use Torps / Melee attack ships. It slightly improves their ability to identify and fight along battle lines.

Trade ban immunity is a mediocre benefit compared to others mok has. First, it only matters once you research the tech to initiate a ban, and second it only matters if you use a ban instead of ending the trade war directly.

Well... Mok is raking in a lot of money for me. The only thing i dont like about the great clans is a lack of research focus, but my having exchanges and spice dens make it up.

Glad you are continuing to improve the AI; very important for single player games.
