    Crushing the strong and leaving the weak to lament their weakness is the point, ergo your understanding of the nature of "Crushing your foes" is flawed :p

    Yes, but when the enemy just grows back and returns to full strength, but now with the will to get vengeance on you, that is not following to the point of "crushing your foes"

    Besides, assimilating them is way better and easier than completely eradicating, and should be used in place of this.



    And we're talking about murderous plants, they wouldn't lament their weakness, they'd just go straight for revenge.

    And then you crush them again. You teach them the futility of their ways, generation after generation, crushing them into dust and leaving the weak to survive with a shred of hope, only to tear it from their claws and laugh in their face.

    Until it is instilled into their very being that to dare to oppose you is to die. :D

    There is no assimilation, there is only the superiority of the machine race. All inferior biological organisms that refuse to follow our grand design shall be eradicated, but not before we drill into their very core of their being that they are no more than powerless specks of dust adrift in the cosmos, that exist only upon our express desire.

    Gonna go slightly off topic here and say that what your saying sounds exactly like the cyber men from the Doctor who series,
    How they make people like them and kill who refuse to join there "grand design"

    Yea, I'm hoping the cyber men make a cameo in Starbound.

    Well, it's not an entirely "alien" concept at any rate. Fairly regular occurrence in tribal warfare as I understand it.

    I would like to see Florans being able to change their appearance by consuming different plant life. For an example, a Floran exploring a planet covered in blue foliage could eat a leaf and blend in.

    Somehow, I think that would count as a Racial Ability, & Racial Abilities are already a no-go.

    Yeah, you're right. We'll leave it to the modding community later on.

    A decently sized organisation revolving on the fact that Hylotls > Florans.

    First thing I thought of: the south park episode concerning that particular source of food.
