- Creating Specialized Colonies
(new colonies will get a considerable bonus for one resource of your choice).

Will the players that already have many colonies be able to choose specializations for the colonies they already have? Because if not, new players will have a big advantage over the older players, being able to specialize their economies, while we will be stuck with the old colonies.

The so-called specialized colonies will be new additions to the game. You cannot turn one old colony of yours into a specialized one. Also, we changed our minds about the one resource thingy.

"Specialized" will mean that the respective colony will either mine resources very fast or it will train units very fast. Other possible options are studied as well...
