power should be race specific,

more so the power upgrade could present a new possibility.

The possibiltiie of focusing between two new power upgrade funcitons for each race which would only be you get one and one only, but each would be radicly different and have different uses and possibilties.

Basicly i think thier should be two options innitialy for u to research on power devices, each different in its source, one which leads to more technologocial benefits, the other which leads to more physical and in general more specific benefits reguarding your race unique tech. And you have to choose which one to choose, i also think afterwards the second choice, the one u didnt make is deleted from your options, and instead you now get a few more upgrades related to your first one, like advancements of it. Each new upgrade provides new bonus' obvoiusly, and occasionally gives u a new build option or new tech[/color].

Tauri got a hyperdrive which kept going faster and faster when unbuffered properly in the series so the x302s and x303s should get like a new ultra powerful energy boosted engine makin them faster and as a offense bonus since movin fast does mean more attack time, followed by another naquadriah research for uncontrolled naquadriah bursts powering either rail or energy weapons aboard the x302s an x303s.

The second energy possibilitie for the tauri would be zpm research for them to choose instead of naquadriah, with zpm research they could gain new shielding for their x303's and perhaps allow a new energy system abourd x302s though they would be likely more costly. This may also allow the possibility of useing ancient outposts or providing the use of the ancient missiles.

but as a balance to this option i think zpm research should either be like 3 or 4 more times more pricey then naquadriah or perhaps come in several different parts which would take time to buy them all.

Gou'old should get like a power bonus from ancient knowledge like O'neill did in the episode where he adjusted the crystals in the transport shuttle and boosted the hyperspace speed. So basicly they would get improved shields/engines/sensors(perhaps)/ and then between enhanced rings to better(cooly) deploy soldiers and then as a later bonus they could choose to enhance thier weapons/shielding/speed for ha'taks and glyders/transports/alkeish.

Or they could choose instead of that, to use the other tech bonus which would be that of "the Trusts" knowledge they took from thier knew hosts, which would include, a cloneing upgrade providing like a 10 times faster or so unit production rate then whatever is ur normal, however this would have like between a 10 and 30 percent or so tax on ur naquadah stores, perhaps even against ur bank if u have 0 naq currently out in the open, meaning if u hav 0 naq in the open, and 0 naq in the bank, and ur alert level is at critical then u wont get any units that turn.

and perhaps advanced mining also as a later bonus from "the Trusts" knowledge which would also be dependent on like a 30 or so percent tax on currently held naquadah or it would freeze up, these are big @$$ bonus', but if u dont have any naquadah in the open or in the bank they freeze up practicly disabling the player until they can manage to get help from someone or liquadate ENOGH weapons for a turn to get goin.

Asgard should get the choice between an advanced energy buffer/generater that can draw energy from subspace, i mean stargates go through it so surely its something u can draw somesort of energy from. i think this choice could lead to the option to create a planetary shield. It should only benefit planetary installments including the production of attack turns, just for the heck of it. This could also end up providing a new ship class.

The other option should be the abilitie to draw energy from a new buffering system based/re-energized occasionally off of an extremely powerful wormhole device that would basicly be a stargate but with no need but to be big enough to transmit massive energy from like either a planet, or better yet, a satellite system orbiting practicly right on top of a blackhole, which could provide the abilitie to build instead of an O'neill class warship, an advanced Daniel Jackson, designed to destroy the replicaters easily and in single blows, unfourtanetly it would be much weaker then the O'neill and more susceptable to other war ships not replicater. And more so, if u choose this upgrade, u WOULD'NT even be capable of building an O'neill warship, only Science classes, basicly the advanced Jackson.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Replicaters could have the one of two options as well,

perhaps creating a field that would draw energy into them, with only powerful shields capable of holding it away. Or, perhaps it would only draw energy from gravity, like planetary and solar gravities.. This would provide a general movement bonus perhaps to all things made of repli-blocks. Including a replication bonus for the untrianed, they should also get the option to research a new tech which provides for every several hundred or perhaps several thousand repli spiders u have, they automaticly combine into one of those giant flying octopie things when attacking a world, an added bonus way to escape perhaps...

. or instead of that it could be for every 50 or so replispiders they get an added bonus or survivability rate to simulate them combining into one ofthose like 10 foot high massive replispiders we saw in that episode on the asgard planet. This may also providea way to counterbalance the asgard science vessels of the Daniel Jackson class since thier weapons would be radicly reduced in power since it would just mostly be absorbed by the replicaters energy field and end up helping the replicaters.

The other option might be to how they combined abourd that gou'old vessel and turned into a giant power device, this could perhaps provide a special energy/tech/attack/defense/speed related bonus to the replicater ship and even to advanced planetary weapons designed to attack unfirendly orbital vessels or just provide additional uu.

Justa little side note:

the tauri had soem sort of buffering and probly a series of them set up to rotate on-board the prometheus to avoid any big explosion like anubis suffered on his ship, the other thing is, the naquadria works excellent, it is singlehandedly the best normal power source on the show sofar i think, its power keeps increasong the longer/more energy u try to draw from it which is awesome.
