RayOnes
Rayonids

Klonk -> because this would be the sound you hear, when you knock on their hull

"Klonk, I Klonk."
-> When a Klonk tries to speak your language, in this case English, and introduces himself(?).
While doing so, he smashes his fist against his head 1.) to make his races name "sound" AND 2.) to pre-emptively fix any possible occurring "brain" failures

There are only male Klonks, like the Ents in Lord of the Rings.
The Klonks do not know wether any female Klonks exist or not.
So they are on an eternal search mission for them, like the search for the holy grail.
This lead to a severe crisis between Humans and Klonks, when the Klonks found out, that the humans have NannyBots, MaidBot, NurseBots etc...
The Klonks first thought that these were their long lost female Klonks, enslaved by the human race.
So some Outposts were attacked and all their female Bots were abducted by the Klonk.
Ok, they soon found out, that these robots weren't their long searched women, but they kept them as some kind of... ehhh "toy"

It was reported, that some of the Klonks, especially those who too often smashed their fist at their heads trying to preemptively fix any possible occurring brain failures, while greeting strangers from other races, are very fond of Nanny and Nurse Bots.
It was reported, too, that some of those Klonks were seen wearing diapers and...

I have no words for that.... Brrrr

Ok, that are the Klonk. Maybe later more, or not, who knows

No, I am not a Dev of this game.

You wrote luminious, which is word that does not exist as far as I know.
I used luminous, which stands for lucent or aglow, which is a quite obvious choice. So I do not claim to be very inventive with this name.

Sorry, no offense meant. I did not intend to be a copycat, I had this idea before I read the entire thread.

There's a new Q&A about the game. http://gamerspot.net/qa-with-jordan-...ommand-part-1/

I love it. I'm thrilled to see the devs are inspired by X-Com, one of the best games ever.

I'd definitely recommend checking out this Q&A if you're interested in learning more about the game and how it's going to play.

Anyway I'd like to thank the Star Command guys for giving us the interview. We'll have the second part up next week probably.

Thanks for the Q&A, that was a good read and scope of the game has a wide and deep sound to it, just as I've been hoping. Next week's second part can't come soon enough!
