Labs, Farms With the Stars opem to us, the potential to expand humanity is now limited only by our imagination. And our population, thus we should focus on securing our food supplies as soon as possible. However, history has shown that some at the fringes of society will seek to take what is not rightfully theirs, thus we propose the Vigilance class Frigate. Vigilance class Frigate Standard Military Drive Standard Armour (10p) 2x Point Defense Laser systems (2p) 7x Broadside Laser cannons (21p) 33P total Such a well armed vessel is both economical to build, and able to bring significant firepower to bear on any would be raiders, the Vigilance is the ship best suited to protect the Republic.

Libluini posted:That first part never happened, that's just what their victims in the Orion Sector believe to feel better about themselves. The Antarans actually wiped themselves out thanks to a brain-eating parasite called Harvester Gamma. The parasite was supposed to be a new generation of Antaran bio-weapon to kill every species they wanted dead more efficiently then by their old, tedious methods of using work camps and orbital bombardments. In their defense, it WAS great at killing every species. Including the Antarens themselves.

Libluini posted:It's basically just nostalgia. As my first space 4x, MO3 has a special place in my heart, as corny as that sounds. There is no other game I'm willing to forgive that many flaws. And even I refuse to play it without multiple patches and a massive mod applied. This. This means that someone's first Space 4X experience was SOTS2. This makes me sad.

Industrial Expansion, Davey Crocket, Molecular Manipulation and, while it surely pains us to force humans to endure longer under alien threat, Await the 4th starship before freeing Paradise. The rest of the Bulrathi navy is out there, Better to wait and minimise losses than lose half the fleet and then have the Bulrathi come by with the rest of their fleet and pull the same trick at Earth.

nweismuller posted:That, and our industrial expansion is starting to make pollution a long-term issue. Filtering pollution will help us sustain levels of industry that would eventually bite us in the rear end. Plus it's a prerequisite for other nice things. Plus Plus it's relatively cheap.

Also, worst case, we have hulls equipped with Bombs. The Bulrathi, not so much.

Crazycryodude posted:Public reactions to the initial declaration of war, and seeing as it's lasted decades (30+ years if I'm counting right) how an entire generation has dealt with growing up at war. Maybe something about how the public perception of the Bulrathi has changed, perhaps even regionally (e.g. I don't imagine residents of Paradise having a very positive view of the Bulrathi, but maybe Earthers see it differently). The Bears wiped out New Buenos Aries. I say, KILL EM ALL!

Peace in our time Our stellar exploration has shown plenty enough worlds for humans and bears. While our previous experience shows the need for us to maintain a military force, a campaign of terror is not in the republic's interest. As a gesture of friendship, we should trade shields for computers, to demonstrate to the hawkish types that we can gain more through peace than warfare. Sunrise should be our latest new world's name, Shaghar should be our next colonial option, and Advanced Fusion should be the focus of our scientists. To avoid any future unfortunate incidents ith the bears, the Republic's intelligence services should seek to learn basic information about the Bulrathi's worlds and encourage informer cells to be established

Advanced Fusion then Genetic Mutation with Telepathy focus. I always wanted to be able to read minds. Toxic Processor no point making fertile soil if our factories are just gonna mess it up all over again. The past reveals that the first steps are the slowest and most painful for a new colony. an injection of funds on Sunrise for basic infrasturcture will quickly get it through this unproductive phase. Yea to assistance. After our current crop of colony vessels a new military cruiser would be a fine addition to the fleet. Broad infiltration and Nay to DNA sniffers. Our people should be protected from such crass invasions of our privacy.

nweismuller posted:Oh yeah! That's definitely a thing I like less about nuMoO- the food and population growth model. For post-industrial societies I like food production better as a simple matter of 'having enough to supply the population' as MoO2 did it rather than having excess food production boost population growth rate. For pre-industrial societies having food production tied to growth rate works well as a model for how the endemic hunger of pre-industrial societies ends up slowing growth, but post-industrial societies tend to have food supplies well in hand. Silicoid food production ALSO affects their growth rate last I checked. Des[ote the whole not eating thing.

The real truth is that the Bulrathi just promised to make Earth Great Again and let things escalate from there.

Well, after a while, you get a lot of planets you don't really care about. nuMoo makes you build population transports though, which takes a lot more

nweismuller posted:Well, a growing number of Bulrathi actually do have English as a first language now- English is the primary administrative language of the Human Republic, and it's been instituted in education for young Bulrathi. A (very few, thus far) Bulrathi have actually taken to adopting Human names, so a Bulrathi named Fred isn't beyond the bounds of belief. Fewer, but not NONE

Also, sure, it let the Bulrathi re-arm. But it also allowed HUMANITY to do the same. And advance in non-military areas creating the foundation for our current success. It's a shame that the Bulrathi decided to try again to conquer humanity, it is a shame that we have to remove their government by force. That does not mean that peace was the wrong option at the time. The Bulrathi were not destined to go to war with us again, that was a choice they made.

Capitalism, hooooo! Economics research and facilities benefiting the same should be a priority for both research and colonial development. Grant exploratory division their request for a new Frigate, but otherwise expand the fleet gradually. We should improve relations, and trade star charts, with the Mrrshan, but a wait and see approach to the other alien races diplomatic actions is preferred.

nweismuller posted:That's pretty low on the list of things that annoy me, definitely after rocktits, MoO2 Gnolams, the game's taxation model, the Terrans, and the loving Alkari advisor. Having a mammalian alien actually be sexually appealing (either male or female) frankly doesn't even rate as much of an annoyance for me, if not done in an utterly ridiculous fashion. (I.e., I like the Mrrshan Queen better than the Syreen.) eh, I don't mind the Syreen. It's so ridiculously over the top it's hard to take seriously. Though they're not aiming for the same look. Man, remember when we were like "The bears just got dunked, lets not have a war eeeever again." Now it's like "AN ALIEN IN A CLOAK. BURN THEIR WORLDS AND SALT THE GROUND." Give peace a chance. Ammending my vote to Non-Aggression with the Mrr'shan. Maybe see if they want a more civilian or defense oriented tech to join us in an alliance and enforce their current borders against the Klakon.

MechaCrash posted:You slander me and mischaracterize my position, good sir! At no point did concern for the fate of the Darlok people ever enter into my consideration, I was pushing for their eradication from day one purely for the safety and security of the Republic and because seriously, gently caress those guys. I'm SORRY that you show a total disregaurd for non-human life. Any bombardments will probably fall upon the newly liberated Bulrathi worlds too. But welp. SORRY, Senator MechaCrash here doesn't think your lives matter. And how do you think our Mrrshan neighbours will view any diplomatic overtures from a Republic so callously willing to destroy the lives of its non-founding peoples? The Bulrathi destroyed Earth's governing structures, and it was terrible, sure, but that does not mean we should invade every alien race because they MIGHT pull the same trick again. It's that sort of warmongering and tyranny that the Republic was created to PREVENT.
