You don't need too, with that config, you have three extra slots free. I would fill it up with 2 dyamos and 1 laser defense.

After a full-immersion i've finished this great game. So, i'm no longer a rookie Grin
A couple of things i didn't understand though:
Why did the Urquan destroy all ancient human monuments when they shielded Earth?
When i finished the game, the Korah had already exterminated most of the races :-/. Is it because i was slow? Could they be saved somehow?

1) Kzer-Za doctrine mandates that all other alien races have their cultures completely restructured to absolutely respect Kzer-Za authority at the top of the Hierarchy. In order to do this, they suppress the original cultures of the species they enslave as much as practicality will allow, in order to destroy elements of racial pride and traditional social order that might manifest as a nationalist movement against the Kzer-Za. The practice is actually relatively common in real life among historical empires.

2) Yes, you were too slow. You should be able to stop the Doctrinal Conflict before the Kohr-Ah cleanse anyone at all.

That's not neccissarily a bad thing. It makes it a lot easier to obtain certain devices once everyone is dead. The first time I played UQM through, I just barely finished in the time window between the annihilation of all other races and the annihilation of myself. Tough cookies for them.
