Summary0015891: You set paid to Sow Dissent etc.
DescriptionYou get paid to do these various hostile actions (Poison, Pollute, Undermine, and Sow Dissent). Who exactly is paying you? :) I think these should cost you instead (and the text description implies that).

This was a recent change, they used to cost you and as a result it wasn't very useful, given you either didn't have enough credits for it to matter, or you had infinite thanks to a later tech.

You're probably being paid by an enemy of the race to do so.

Admittedly, the pay is low ($10 a month), but getting paid for doing an aggressive act with very low repercussions (only the target seems to mind that you trashed his homeworld) seems wrong.

As I compare this to the Evuck special ability (which is basically doing this remotely with third party involved), the Evuck ability comes up short. It costs a lot of money, increases you credit cost with them, and unless the target faction is hated, you lose influence with most factions (you can gain some if they are hated).

Do you have a savegame with the Evuck special ability available in the situation where you feel like it's out of balance?
