Also it's really dumb how my neighbor just got made a satellite state by an AE and now can suddenly go through my borders despite me being closed because I can't control borders to satellites, apparently e: Of course, the science nexus event just triggered on a curator I had so now she's Curator, Spark of Genius, Maniacal so that's quite the speed boost there Shugojin fucked around with this message at 17:05 on Jan 28, 2018 |

I'm playing Inward Perfection and (partly because this medium galaxy only had 4 civs and one fallen empire) this might be my most comically overpowered run ever "Hey, you know those pacifist hippie tree people we declared war on? Turns out they can make a fleet way bigger than ours inside of a year"

I'm sitting around with my whole dang non special unit fleet dismantled insulting all my neighbors with fleets rated from superior to overwhelming and not a dang one will do anything Just because I can build like 400k in a game year, you guys  Really debating embracing some other faction so I can get rid of or at least tone down the pacifist part, not like inward perfection is doing a whole hell of a lot at this point

Ms Adequate posted:One of my fave things about Pdox threads is people relating their mounting woes as everything goes to poo poo It's not even going to poo poo, it's just that I'm stubbornly refusing to change my ethics from fanatic pacifist and instead baiting the other empires into attacking me and it gets boring at times

Yeah, I was just getting impatient but the AE finally declared war and then got brutally shitstomped when I dumped a hundred thousand minerals into a bigass fleet inside of a year (They have no fleet now)

Megastructures are something to do to dickwave when you can, but the ruined ones are by far the best option

stupid game failed to actually spawn the contingency faction so i can't beat them up and this is ironman so I don't have a thing to revert to

Since that game broke on the crisis by not spawning the faction I started over with the same passive aggressive race, but on a more crowded galaxy Fun so far

I don't think you need the Ascension perks to repair, just the mega engineering tech

I just liberated a planet in a war thinking I could get a chance to kill the known unkilled space dragon and give my immortal admiral that bonus I forgot that I'm inward perfection so now the dragon is locked away owned by a one planet state

Shadowlyger posted:The reason is "Micromanaging literally every planet that finds its way into your empire isn't fun". Its not too bad late game, when you pretty much just build a bunch of buildings, wait until the thing tells you it's done, then queue all the upgrades Lol if you aren't just doing mineral world / research world / food world / energy world because that results in minimal work

Hey just fyi wiz/other paradox folks It might be fixed just kinda incidentally in cherryh but right I just had a random seized planet rebel against the awakened empire and so it counts as having their tech and I was able to bribe them with some cash and get a research agreement, but my materialist faction is grumpy about them technically being Overwhelming on tech

And the AE took care of them eventually but I got a fair while with a nice nice +25% to every tech even the repeatable ones

Pigbuster posted:Is there any actual payoff to that quest or is it just a complete waste of time? For me it's always ended after the revolution. I think you maybe get some energy or something, it's a decent amount if you have it happen early (and they don't want to be relocated to the middle of a fallen empire's territory or something)

1) yes, but there's random number generating going on 2) not necessarily but it can be a pain in the rear end if someone goes in between and closes their borders to you (might change in a week) 3) it's a good game

pospysyl posted:The mechanist to synthetic ascension build looks pretty cool! Thanks, everyone! I am disappointed you can't just start as individual robots, but I can understand that it doesn't really fit with the medium-hard sci fi tone they're going with. I just finally won a game this way I mean I only tried it the once, it just had that problem Stellaris has where victory is assured a long time before you actually get it

Kind of nitpicky but: Can we get some attention paid to some of the anomaly responses? I don't think my determined exterminators really think it's all that tragic for some random organic pilot to have died slowly
