i agree for the importance of the balance, but i think it's quite easy to do 
thanks to military improvements. i mean, exactly as in Civ, the one who has 
the best technologies has the best military units. Therefor you have to 
develop your civizaltion, because the better the military units, the more 
their cost.

another way to improve the balance is the goal of the game. sorry if you've 
already talk about it, but what is it exactly?  just wipe out all the other 
players ? or something like the best score (which score has to be defined) ? 
or something like spacerace ?
