And apparently some sort of 'cooling curve' as well...

This is going to be a good value update. It adds 50% more different aliens. Doubles the number is you discount the Quarg, Drak and Pug, who are all over the place.

@jafdy I'd say about 2-2,4 or so (their civilian ships are pretty strong)

The civilian ships are intended to be Tier 1.5. They are governed by a sort of council of elders chosen from among all three constituent species, and that council - the Heliarchs - controls Tier 2.5 warships that combine the best technology of each of the species and that they used in the past to drive the Quarg out of their space. (Or maybe the Quarg just left to avoid fighting; everyone always has different stories about that sort of thing...)
