Yeah, they're functionally identical in most cases.

What do you think about sock-o-mancers? They use an interaction to spawn seventeen !!socks!! (socks made from material with an ignition temperature below 9500 Urist) near their enemies. Too much like traditional DF, maybe?

Restricted please...

The 16 versions of each of 14 dragons(16x14 dragons) spamming the list is bad enough.
It'd be okay if the names weren't all identical.

So far my variations involve flamethrowers, freeze rays, railguns and laser cannons, along with back-mounted versions of the latter two and shield generators and jetpacks. Sound fair?

Unfortunately, interactions cannot spawn anything but material.

Where are these mechs coming from? While they're cool and all, they might not fit thematically... we already have an "advanced" race as medieval-steampunk. A future-tech civ would be upstaging them a bit.

You're right.

There are certain niches being filled already so we have to avoid repeating those niches.

I've made long staffs.

Now to make my civilization.

Are there any current civilizations a long staff might fit with while I'm at it?

Adherents, since they're all monks. Though giving the entity weapons would make the body-less ones wield them as well, so maybe not.

Well...
Would there be a way to make only the lower class 'soldiers'?

Edit:Like I think formics do something like that.

Edit2: Who made the psionics?
