I wasn't necessarily the best in terms of economy, or actual numbers of units. But I was playing as Psilon and was so far ahead in technology it was completely viable to go for a victory in tech. Anyway, I murdered the guardian and then went "ooh" when I saw the planet. I sent a colony ship defended by about half of my fleet, and settled, and then when I saw the cutscene it really made me think for a while what just happened. Then I thought about the name of the game, and the name of the planet. Then it clicked. Derp.

Honestly, I think I would much rather make Orion a shared planet, with each race hopefully living in harmony, or at least each race allied to the humans if that isn't possible. It would be an example of people not being constrained by race, at least.) That sounds pretty good.

Anyways, Eureka, have my information gatherers picked up anything?
