It looks good. I'd love to know more about the differences between Pandora and Civilization from a Civ veteran's perspective, especially regarding the pace and the balance between economy and combats. I'm a bit concerned about the randomized tech tree and the "design your own units" thing. A good strategy game needs the gameplay to be reproducible enough so that you can assess your improvements, have the feeling to understand the game mechanics and eventually share your strategies with the community.
