Why can't we decide what Terror Stars actually do, too? for example, instead of just destroying things, you could set it to hamper research in a wide area around itself. Or you could make it send out mini-ships to engage enemy traders, and so on. Naturally you'd also be able to choose to have it as a regular Terror Star... or perhaps if you really wanted to fund the project, what about combining this? and more!

There is so much you can do with these, please don't leave them as a pure thing.
