Should I just leave all my sectors on "balanced" or specialize them? Should I colonize every planet inside one, even small ones? They don't seem to do very much without me manually directing it all regardless.

Speaking of war with ai allies, do you actually have to give them some of their war goals when you negotiate peace or can you just be like "thanks for the help, here's nothing" without an opinion penalty?

Wow ok holy gently caress, 2.0 fixes defensive wars, right? I've never been on the "ally" side of a defensive war and being just trapped and helpless as the AI throws away its fleets and refuses to recapture planets, meaning my poo poo gets stolen in the peace agreement is super infuriating. Xenophobic all the way I guess. gently caress "friends"

I'm hoping the marauders are laying the groundwork for playable nomads.

The game already uses "Susamen" as a star name so I don't see why they can't let us build shellworlds.

Oh, sweet! Though picking through the models, some of these were just slapped in there. And some of these ship role choices, wow. But while we're on anomalous impossible planets; Wiz, where is the Meat Planet? There needs to be a Meat Planet. So we can probe it with knives and forks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZP7K9SycELA

Man, it just occured to me that you could rip the ship and station models from Sword of the Stars/SotS2 and they would fit pretty well into the game, being similarly modular. If only I knew how to do that. The SolForce ships would look pretty sweet. Or the Loa for Machine Empires.

Thyrork posted:Speaking of Ringworlds, I'm tinkering with writing something set on one. Anyone got any good stories or extracts of living on a ringworld? I can always use more fodder. A few Culture novels visit ringworlds briefly. Most of Look to Windward is set on one. Or an Orbital. Consider Phlebas featured Megaships, giant cruise liners that sail an endless circle around their ringworlds without stopping.

Eiba posted:Those aren't Ringworlds, those are Orbitals in the shape of rings. They're almost inconceivably huge engineered environments, with as much as a hundred times the surface area of the earth, all of which would be habitable. I seem to recall Banks had proper Ringworlds, called Rings, but now that you mention it, I don't think we ever see one except listed as a casualty of the Idiran-Culture War.

turn off the TV posted:There's a picture of a Bentusi guy in the Cataclysm manual (I think?) and he has some kind of weird scale poo poo going on. I think "it's like Dune" makes about as much sense as the rest of the setting, though. But the the Beast is 100% not a human. Yeah, the Beast is some sort of weird hegemonizing biomechanical infection from outside of normal space. The Nagarok basically pulled an Event Horizon and went somewhere where you don't need eyes to see. Edit: And I think part of people's criticism of HW2's mystic/spiritual theme is that even though it's consistent with Homeworld 1, in the first game it was very much part of the background, blending seamlessly with the rest of the setting. In HW2 they ramped it up to 11 and suddenly the whole plot revolves around "so advanced they're magical" Macguffins while they beat you over the face with the mysticism.
