I saw this thread, and it prompted me to exit lurker mode and post something again. I remembered that way back, someone drew up some art of the Chenjesu. I absolutely loved that. The topic was http://forum.uqm.stack.nl/index.php?topic=3904.15 Mind you, it is a very old topic, and people have come and gone between now and then. What I said in that topic though still reflects what I think of the Chenjesu; they might have integrated some tech from another race to make their crystalline bodies move around. They may have been fully crystalline and "rigid" in the past, the only movement of an entity is that of "growing" into a place. Chenjesu ships may have taken them ages to grow in the past, but with gathered tech have allowed them to expand and grow more rapidly.So my opinion in short; gathered tech have made them more mobile, before that time, they moved by growing into place, their appearance being that of crystals. Feel free to ignore it though, I always love seeing your artwork...
Hmm, spam bot quoting something from the thread much earlier, and pretending it's its own stuff.
And adding a spam link.

In preparation for an upcoming tournament next month, Balance Mod got a debug pass. The Windows/Linux crossplay desync bugs, of which there were several, are extremely dead now thanks to some help from Serosis. The changes are listed below...
~~2.16~~
__________________________________________
* The colorful reticles that appear during mirror matches now correctly differentiate two cyborg-controlled ships. Previously, both sides were given red reticles.
* Fixed 'Pick Next Ship' desync bug during Windows vs Linux crossplay.
* Fixed Ur-Quan fighter desync bug during Windows vs Linux crossplay.
* Earthling PDL ignores its own outgoing missiles for the first 10 frames of their duration.
* Earthling PDL cooldown reduced close to previous value. (12 -> 10, was 9 in vanilla)
* Earthling PDL energy cost increased. (3 -> 3.5, was 4 in vanilla) Battery regen stalls per laser strike to give it this fractional cost.
* Umgah's turn rate penalty while projecting its Antimatter Cone is reduced. (6 -> 5)
* Yehat's bonus frame of shield duration (applied during 1st shield cycle, but not 2nd, 3rd, etc.) has been removed.
