Alien Infested Planets
Here's an idea, uncolonized planets randomly become infested with a new kind of alien, they build a hive and defend their colonies much like the UN. For shooting down a hive the game rewards you with a random choosing of 5 million credits, 100 tokens, a special spaceship that can only be gotten this way (rare, similar to CEO ship, with 16 holds), or a large drop of a resource (as a bad prize, hey, you can't win every time!).
Below I have listed the new defenses these aliens would use:
Hive:
The alien version of the bio-dome, but instead of capping it, it must be shot down with nukes, because its just too gross to land on:
Mine:
The alien version of a regular mine, damages your ship initially then continues to damage your ship less and less for 10 seconds (acid/toxin effect):
Alien NPC:
They fly right over walls and attack your ship with little slimewads, they are found only on the planets surface and launch from the hive when the planet is landed on.
The hive contains a maximum number of these NPCs (maybe 10?) and they are launched one every 10 seconds while someone is on the colony until they are all out of the hive, if one gets shot down, it takes 15 minutes for the hive to make a replacement.
Alien Turret
These function mainly as the regular laser turrets do, except they fire more powerful versions of the slimewads that regular aliens shoot instead of lasers.
Idea a loose version of an idea by Thayne on FW.

Re: Alien Infested Planets
remove all those rewards. there are about 10k planets in a server and they would eventually all be full of these things. i could log in and purge 10 permas of 10k of these and get 100 tokes every 5th one.
Re: Alien Infested Planets
dude major props to you and ur graphics, kinda a cool idea man but honestly i dont see toonces implenting any of these or anyone elses ideas anytime soon, keep on dreaming (seriously cool graphic skills) -cow
Re: Alien Infested Planets
I love this idea. Maybe there should be a way to farm these aliens to build up a tougher planet defense? Like a deadly donkey garden lol.

Re: Alien Infested Planets
Looks like a pretty cool idea
Re: Alien Infested Planets
I love this idea. I think this game lacks alien civilization. Why are the humans even exploring and colonizing far away planets if there is absolutely no other life in the galaxy besides their own?
