Tech Stealing idea..

from GalCiv2 Forums
It would be interesting to see a spy that has stolen a civ's tech and that civilization now has to go back and re-research it. Or the ability to target tech research to slow them down a particular path.

HOW would that make any sense whatsoever? Real life doesn't work like that, so why make up something both unrealistic (forgivable) and annoying (tolerable at best, but when combined awful)

Well, the spy could be a SUPER spy who'll also take out all of the scientists who were involved with the research and he'll also go the length to destroy that information and everything that came from that particular research. Sort of like James Bond on crack and steroids. *laughs at the thought of a crazed James Bond crackhead*

Dude! His eyes could shoot lasers and he could have, like, a mind control beam. Except it is a mind slow beam and it causes researchers to research poorly all over the universe if they're all allied to the same government. And he could also have a racial memory wiping ray to cleanse the minds of the researches, technicians. Of course, he doesn't have the ability to control computers, but that's why he has the super tech virus that can target a specific tech but it only useful when used with his powers!!!!!!1!!!!

^ Or that too.

I did notice that your way is less violent and demands less blood to be spilled that way. Gee, why didn't I think of that.

You've got it all wrong! The spy slips copies of GC2 to the scientists, who then waste all their time playing it, instead of researching new techs!
