Been playing around the current beta and having lots of fun.
Really love the UI improvements and the new visuals added, nice to have difficulty levels too.

Looks like the development team is getting larger, there's even 2 writers now  :

edit : not sure it's normal for the Human Triumvirate, but when i sent troops to quell a rebellion in one of my world (forgot to setup security after we got Computers II , after the rebellion we started to catch our "friend" Bulrathi sending spies), while there was the soldiers aiming and dying animations there was no visual for the shots.

Oh and looks like i didn't need to send more troops to crush the rebels on another of my world

You don't have Hand Lasers yet. Those guys are shooting bullets!

Sucks about the comet, though. Wait until you see the space monsters in the next update.

Oh the game makes a visual distinction for the type of weaponry used by the troopers ?
That's really great.

Can't wait to have a space monster quelling rebellions on my worlds for me :D

Victory !
Bladrov 2 is now the High Master of the galaxy ruling over puny Humans, Bulrathis and Silicoids.
The good people of the human worlds also rejoiced (well they had to as they remember the last time they tried to rebel and received a deadly comet in their face) as they said goodbye to the 2 other folks of the Triumvirate, their new job is now polishing their new beloved leader Bladrov 2's shoes while smiling instead of sitting on their chair and looking bored.

Those animations for revolt and sabotage are great, my Darloks harrassed the Klackons just to see them :)
Can't wait to see how they will be for the other races when they're done.

So far on my test play through the game seems rather solid, the space battles are fun and even more intuitive to control than in old MoO1.

I noticed a problem in the spy screen, worlds that are on the top of the screen (like the Klakons ones on the top of the screen in the screenshot) can't be accessed or selected when choosing a target , and map can't be moved to get them out of the message hidding them :
