Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Update So, I've reached a good stopping point on this run. The hard limit to population the clone army has is tough to work around. I went with psychic ascension perhaps mistakenly, as that closed off synthetic ascension which would have been more in theme with the concept of robots as cultural offs...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2309.11.02 We've had to teach the lesson again. We need to make an example out of them so that this idea that our border systems can just be TAKEN is eliminated once and for all. How that example will take shape has yet to be revealed. We have more important issues at hand. Our collective t...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2290.02.11 Our point has been made. In spite of their higher numbers, our fleets cut through theirs with ease and our troops made a mockery of their defenses. Now we can return our attention to other matters. We stand poised to establish a bureau of espionage, at the same time we are ready ...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2285.04.30 The tensions with the Zaanami Republic have snapped, and what was a cold war has gone hot. They decry our ideology and strangely we don't entirely disagree. As we've recently seen with a xenophobic Commander, because our system does not even allow for us to voice dissent against ...

Stardate 2284.10.30

Perhaps it was the hatred she held in her heart for the unfamiliar, but Commander Elemani has already passed. Fortunately or not, this leaves questions about our form of governance for another time.

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2282.10.06 So it's true! Not only is psionic theory valid, but we clones have psionic potential! Whether it was always there or if it was unlocked by our relatively recent genetic upgrade, we do have the ability, perhaps some perhaps all, to activate psionic powers. We're now directing scie...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2281.01.15 Commander Listhima has died of natural causes after a long life of service. Lieutenant Commander Elemani has assumed command, and directed our fleets to clear the Izar system of crystal entities and prepare to colonize Izar I and Izar IIIa. This is a difficult decision to underst...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2277.05.25 Doctor Ralpakini, our head of Society research, has today embarked on a daring new field of science, Psionic Theory. Our people have felt connected in more ways than our biology would explain for generations, but perhaps the new Ascendant genes we unlocked have revealed that this...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2270.03.14 A brief border war with three empires in a federation led to a minor gain for us and now a cold war. A few things were made abundantly clear to us: ton for ton and gun for gun our navy is stronger because of what we are, and without allies both internal and external we will not l...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2232.03.13 An organization known as the Galactic Community has formed, and through it we have made contact with many new cultures and civilizations. Our strange nature and warlike society seems to contract with their expectations. Well, so too does theirs with ours. With the only room left ...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2229.03.01 And just like that, we are boxed in. What appears to be a coalition of three separate space empires controls the hyperlanes leading out of what little space we have claimed that isn't already blocked. The only space we could move into now is controlled by crystalline entities. We...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2227.04.26 We have finally discovered our nearest celestial neighbors, the "Tranquil Vhellet Commonwealth." They are isolationist and repulsed by our vey existence. Their life cycles involve the death of another species. Our immediate mission is to collect intelligence on their ca...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2227.02.30 It is done. We are more ourselves than ever before, smarter, stronger, faster. Those that took us from primitives and made us into tools of war were cruel but not wrong. We will no longer lament what was taken from us, but celebrate it, for it is now our choice going forward. We ...

Stardate 2223.02.02 As our first robotic brethren near completion, we have unlocked a message from the distant past hidden in our clone vats. A scientist burdened by guilt for what was done to us has left us instructions to follow one of two paths forward, to restore fertility or to unlock potential...

Re: Stellaris: Logs, Blogs, Blorg

Stardate 2222.08.06 Space is filling up fast! We are investigating the ruins of multiple past civilizations, recovering derelict ships from unstable orbits, and now all of our envoys are working to decipher communications with possible intelligent aliens! From the husks of the crystal beings we have...
