Compered the DL race file to the TA file. There is only one race that didn't make it into DA/TA, the Andians, apperently they were replaced by the LentzLandians.

I doubt they really matter.  Most of the time the minor races get eaten up by the major races within 100 turns so it doesn't really matter what personality they are.

Aren't these pulled in by Events?

These numbers represent their indirect RC file slots and the incode functions refer to some files such as Flavor.txt to generate their activities. Knowing how i fiddle with data & values in my mods, you probably wouldn't recognize any of these default Minors.

I read somewhere that minor races will not expand and cannot conquer other planets (which is different from the way GalCiv 1 was, where minor civ's could actually become quite powerful, sometimes more powerful than major civs. I've never tried giving a minor civ transports near someone elses undefended planet and in diplomacy making them declare war on that civ. Would be interesting to see if they take it or not. I wish they would have kept minor races the same way GalCiv 1 was, because now they are pretty pointless in most situations, other than to just straight out use. Like taking all their influence points, gold and techs before you destroy them the same turn, or using freighters to trade with just one minor civ and setting up tons of trade starbases along the way (which will make quite a bit of BC per turn, the most for me being around 5000-6000BC a turn, which isn't much to what others have said they have made.)
