Minor
Intro
A "Minor", indeed a minor race, is a non-playable race. It has own diplomacy abilities and become a member of a empire. On the other side it can be conquered (not verified). Until one of these options it is independend.
How to find info
- do a wiki search for minor race name, e.g. "Dosi", or select Category Races (on the left)
- (all minor race sites begin with "»" => sorry for this but it's because so they're sorted at the end of A-Z
mention that by pressing CTRL your browser will remain the wiki site when clicking a link
- on the minor race site you can click on Minor race name in front of description to get into Memory Alpha
- for ship data (if minor race has ships) click on the Ships-Link to get into BotF2-Database (search there for the ship)
- for building data (if minor race has buildings) click on the Buildings-Link to get into BotF2-Database (search there for the building)
- for special outputs of buildings use Database lists, e.g. Morale
Mention: all mostly lists of BotF2-Database you can CopyPaste into your Excel to sort the data, filter it or something else
You can use this to print out a complete list of minors incl. Ships, Buildings and anything else (e.g. Planets) by starting this site WITHOUT copy it into Image-Folder (list might not be totally up to date)
Hint:
- if at minor race wiki site building name is in CAPITAL LETTERS than it is inside TextDatabase.xml
- I didn't check yet if there are data in TechObjectDatabase.xml, and as the buildings maybe doesn't appear in the game this is not relevant, too.
- if building name is *.png than there's only the image file and maybe nothing ingame -> data might be done at non public area of forum: Minor Race Special Structure Images http://botf2.star-trek-games.com/viewtopic.php?p=26058#p26058 (search entry t=1004)

<SingularName>Acamarian</SingularName> <PluralName>Acamarians</PluralName> <Description>The Acamarians are a space faring race with an extremely violent past by comparison to most interstellar species; this is because politically, Acamar utilises an archaic clan structure. Efforts to move beyond the brutal feuding of the past have resulted in the formation of a central government headed by a Sovereign. Physically, they are humanoid in appearance possessing vertical cranial ridges as well as a rather unique iron-copper blood composite. With the military infrastructure that they have, they are more than capable of defending their homeworld.</Description> <HomePlanetType>Jungle</HomePlanetType>
