To make matters worse for him, he's against the idea of a police state. The -1 Morale wouldn't help him at all on the defense so he'd rely on preemptive strikes and the -2 Police means that he must be careful not to overexpand, as his units do not count as police and nerve stapling is disabled. If rushed early however, he becomes a pincushion. Results are if he's left alone, he becomes a massive superpower who then ends up sending singularity choppers with 25% attack bonuses from belief. I even tried pitting Brother Harvey's faction in an all AI battle against other Harvey Beaks themed factions. Heck, just try an all AI battle in transcend and they will end up wiping all opposition with ease (not counting Nautilus Pirates of course). I guess it's whay truly made the progenitor factions so broken(and hated ). You're pretty right on the Recycling Tanks. It's only a question of brand identity and degree, so in my mod a Police State is just a worse police state than a Fundamentalist one. My view is that all Fundamentalist regimes are a kind of police state, just think of the Taliban, ISIS, or the Iranians. The bonuses are different, they get +1 GROWTH +1 MORALE +1 POLICE and nothing about Probe at all. Fundamentalism still has a -2 RESEARCH penalty for factions choosing it though. It should be noted, the Believers aren't as ant-science in my mod, they just get -1 RESEARCH. I rationalized that they have plenty of reality based experience with mindworm science, so they shouldn't be cripples in biology at least.
In terms of Cha Dawn's character it was the right idea, but I did not like that slowness of researching was crippling them. Who is now a Fundamentalist faction, not a Green faction.
Recently I too tried IMPUNITY to Fundamentalism, for the Cult of Planet. They have to build recycling tanks just like anyone else.
In my SMACX AI Growth mod, I have defanged the Progenitor factions in many ways.
