Realism aside, there's literally no reason for these weapons to only apply to organic species, and it makes the techs useless. If there are no objections, I'm going to change them to work on all species.

Re: Bio-Weapons
There is one balance issue, and it's purely because Experimentor beasties use them and it's one of the weaknesses of organic species. Can you comment it out rather than simply remove, as at some point we were hoping to increase the range of them so that there are more options and different types that do more damage to different metabolisms.
But yeah, as things stand it makes them useless for the player so a stopgap of make them not suck is fine by me.

Re: Bio-Weapons
I could comment it out, but it's literally just 4 lines of removing 'HasTag name = "ORGANIC"', plus minor changes to the descriptions. I don't think it will be difficult to add back in later.

Re: Bio-Weapons
It's me remembering it was there, but Git has that handy "see previous versions" thing, so yeah, you're right, go for it, it's not a priority for me to work on in terms of balancing at the moment and making them actually usable is a good idea.
