I would say 3. Expand into the Alien galaxy, then establish an amistice and a DMZ/neutal zone/border between the two races that will allow for further development in the future.

Mac, will magma work with the plug? Or will I have to do some editing?

It should, for the most part, be compatible. I'm not adding any new weapon sprites, and there's only one new ship, plus I'm resizing the Alien Cruiser - it was a bit small in the original, and since it'll be around more, it needs to be bigger, and the new ship will fit better this way too. Right now, if you just stuck it in whole, it might cause a couple of problems with MAGMA, with the Alien Cruiser, and the new ship might look a bit funny since it isn't from MAGMA. However, it's only at revison 1.0d2 right now, so there's plenty of time for change. I don't want to say too much now, but by the time it's released, I will probably make some optional graphics installs so that it will be compatible with MAGMA, with perhaps one odd-looking ship and maybe some funny looking outfit pics.

Choice four would be my natural pick, but you're right about saving that for another plugin. Perhaps three would be the more logical choice, but it would still leave a few problems (as you've already mentioned).

Just my two cents.

That seems to be the general consensus. The other thing with choice 4, as I mentioned omewhere else, is that I'm not at all sure I really want to go there. Stripping the Aliens from EV just doesn't seem right, so #3 is most likely.

But still, if you go with choice three, it'd probably be a good idea to create a sequal plugin to compensate for the reasons which left the player hanging.
