Avatars

Just a question. Are we going to get more Avatars in future versions? Or how about you get to choose avatars as you go along the game?

Like.. for example, after when you are about to build an Eraudi shipyard, you get a choice between.. say the Starfleet Corps of Engineers and the Section 31 Operatives. If you choose the Engineers, you get Defiants/Sovereigns/Excelsiors, etc with higher system value, and additional special weapons. If you choose S31, you get special weapons like "Section 31 Operative" or "Stealth mode" or something..

Yes, we are. 
I read something about three Avatars for each race in a future version.

Actually I can't find the thread in which I thought I read it.
Maybe I just mixed up discussions and suggestions and announcements.
But I think there will be more but not in V3.

Darn, you had my hopes up, but no matter: here at Flops command we are prepared to wait. I'm really excited for v4 even though v3 hasn't come out btw... It seems in general we talk so much about new ideas and stuff (which are very awesome and all); and yet they do seem to get implemented eventually!

Yeah very true, and it's probably not a coincidence.  The staff say little, yet do so much, busily busying themselves with busyness like busy little bees. Then the emperor Claudius asked them, "what have you been doing, busy little bee? And the emperor was heartbroken..."  >:(

I've diverged somewhat. Anyhoo, I concur, we here at Flops command shall wait patiently for the new features to transpire.
