You could make it so each religion has a certain type of building that unlocks units/other buildings only buildable by that side. For example if you were a follower of the Dark Side you could build a Sith Training Academy. If you were light side that you could build a Jedi Training Academy. These buildings would be the prerequisite of units and other buildings. Kind of like how in Fall From Heaven you have to build a Barracks to build Axemen, or a Stable to build a Horse Archer.
I don't know how the AI would handle that, though.

First of all. For this to be really good. Made a massive map. Even bigger than huge. Change the sea tiles to space tiles, and have one square by one square tiles for each planet. Make the cities look like colonized planets. Mountins could be black holes. Your would need to put like 10-20 food, sheild, ect items for each planet. Make swamps a gas planet and give those a 4x4 square, with habital moons around it. For when you make the galaxy here is a very accurate map.
This could be very cool. Hopefully it will run smoothy even though it has a massive map, the planets will be spaced out. It should be fine.
If you want I can make the map for you, if some one will walk me through modding the terrain, or is someone can do it that would be great.

Hey Civmansam, I got your message and sent you back a reply. What needs to be done? Have you thought of all the leaders for all the different civs and all that kind of stuff? I could help with ideas too.
CIVMANSAM,
I did try to read the how to mods; I now have a healthy respect for anyone that can do it. But I wanted to ask about your decision to lock the light/ dark sides. The opposing side has always been a great recruiting ground for potentials. Sidious recruited Anakin from the Jedi ranks, as he did Dooku. Obi-1 and Yoda tried to recruit Dooku back to the light and Vader tried to recruit Luke to the dark side give yourself to the dark side, but failed as ultimately Luke succeeded in recruiting him back to the light.
The Civs too are ambiguous, many giving allegiance to whomever was more powerful, many systems happily living under the republic and equally happily living under the empires protection. It can get sticky with the possibility of debate open.
If I can, I want to come back to my previous topic of UU available from conquered planets. Yes the fall from heaven mod has special building for recruiting units. As stated the barracks is required to make the axeman, the library for making conjurers and mages. I propose that when you capture the planet each city (planet) has a building like a barracks in it that is unique to the planet for building the units available on that planet. Im not sure if I explained it very well in the last post.
If you choose to raze the city, you are effectively committing planet scale regicide, destroying all of the indigenous species off it. If you choose to capture the city (planet) you can recruit the local species to join in your war effort. Either by force (the dark side) or by coercion (the light). If each planet has one building in it which has two options,
1. Building an indigenous settler which is a unit that can build a ewok barracks on another planet, effectively transporting some of the indigenous species to a different planet, to protect the species and to be able to build the units from a different planet. A more long term strategy.
2. Short term, would be producing my crappy ewok warriors for battle purposes.
I could of course build the rest of the regular light side/ dark side buildings but the ability to produce different species units would be the advantage of expansion.
A settler built on one planet can then produce that barracks style building on another planet. Think about the priests on Fall from heaven they are able to create a temple in a different city. This is explained by a civ (say the ewoks here) you capture the planet, choose not to eradicate the cute little vermin and decide to cultivate their species. Building either ewok warriors, maybe power 1, woodsman 2 upgrade, or choosing to build ewok settler from the ewok specific barracks (suggested name of ewok birthing hut) which can then make the two type of unit.
A good civ would have a range of different species available to it, the more planets you control the more species which would have, which would help with the senate vote for the Diplomatic victory.
Does all this make sense or am I still a raving lunatic?

For the space units thing, I think for the finished mod would be to have the water turned into space. Land could represent planets, and the large capital ships and such would replace all of the ships, starfighters and such would still be air units.

adding some more for you, I have attached a word doc with with some more ideas about the barbarian/ alien races.
A. the Unique Building is the building that is specific for that type of species. Each unique building has four functions.
1. A minor bonus for having access to that type of species
2. To produce a species specific melee unit.
3. produces a settler style of unit that has a sole purpose of spreading the different species to the different planets, by creating a species building.
4. Produces a great hero for each species (world wonder unit)
I was thinking that a kewl option could be to add +1 culture to a Civ for each species it has. You would after all be getting more "culture".
If the attachment doesn't work, I may ask suggestions so i don't have to re-type it all.
I was thinking that you may want to make the Jedi/ Sith as great people, with buildings producing +1 Light Side or +1 Dark side, when you get to 100 Force points you get a great person, depending on which side of the force was contributed more force points to the production. eg 51% light side and you score a Jedi. The same rate of return as the great peole 100 for the first one, 200 for the second, 400 for the third. e.g. Younglings acadamy adds +1 light side, Padawan Acadamy +2 light side.
You could get some interesting outcomes if you had a light side religion and started building loads of dark side buildings and you got a sith appear in your republican capitol.
I welcome debate for this stuff, just thinking that if it was possible this could be a solid foundation.
