Not the most fair thing...

from GalCiv2 Forums
Just attacked the Korath, and for the tech I stole... the Spore Ship tech! So now I have the ability to build the Spore ships, even though it's not my super power.

What does it do?

I've been playing Korath for a bit, I've seen it on the tech tree but have not researched it yet. Is that a unique technology?

The spore ships are unique to the Korath. Think of them as troops transports, except without the troops and a lot more dangerous. They can capture world in a similiar many to troop transports, but they don't invade. They instead pump toxic gases into the atmosphere killing all inhabitants without a fight, turning the world into a toxic class. They then plant a Korath flag once done, making the planet yours, and then jump back into their spore ship to do the same to another.

Incase you didn't get that, let me summerize:
-Can capture worlds.
-Automatic success.
-Turns planet into toxic class.
-Spore ship is not used up in the process.

Its a powerful super ability.

This is no longer the case. They are now single use only.

Read the change long in the "BETA 1A released" thread (post #19).

I guess it would be just a little too unbalancing if you could 'aquire' the super abilities of the other races. But the spore ship would fit nicely in my Yor-Fleets
