Well that worked! I thought the name above the picture was the race, and not the planet. However, having used that to find the home world of the race I wanted to attack I discovered a new quandry!
I used the above to find the minor race home planet, and conquered it. However, it appears that race must have had another planet too, not in the same star system, and suddently I was being attacked by a race I thought I had destroyed (come to think of it, I may not have seen the in-game movie about the race being destroyed).
So, is there any way to find the other planets of a minor race, and with 100% of the map explored I must have seen it once, without looking at every planet (I play with large or huge maps)?
For a major race I use the option to show controlled space, and then search that area of the map, but I don't believe th minor races gives that option.
Thanks guys. Good game, well done!
