At the beginning of the year 2600, the Human Technocracy had pulled so far ahead of their rivals that there would no longer be any real competition from them. Victory, such as it was, had been achieved. Warring against the Technocracy would be suicide, as was amply demonstrated when the exterminatin...

I'm not really sure how to characterize just how much research I'm getting from the utopian abundance living standard. On one planet, out of 24, I've got more research coming from unemployed pops than I do from the Science Nexus, a one per empire special research megastructure. I've got 11k research...

When we realized the ancient caretaker robot species we had encircled in our territory was actually malfunctioning dangerously, we moved quickly and took over their ancient ring worlds, only to find that their malfunction was billions of years old, and where we had hoped to find frozen specimens of ...

So, I'm very happy with the effects of using the Utopian Abundance living standard combined with the synthetic ascension pathway. Since pops aren't consuming food, I'm redirecting development to consumer goods which is much easier to keep at the right levels using ecumenopoles. However, we have far ...

And so here we are. While peace would have been possible for a time, when we found that the Ganvius Entity had been keeping sentient organic lifeforms as livestock and consuming them as food, we had NO choice but to wipe it out. The war was longer than we had hoped, perhaps this is always the way of...

20190414182052_1.jpg While the Neutron Sweep of the Ganvius capital system broke the spirit of the strange tree entity, it did not break our resolve to see our task to the end. Having dealt this blow, we each of us know that this entity will not rest until one of our two peoples are wiped out compl...

So, I'm enjoying my technocrat game and will finish it, but I wanted to go ahead and see if you guys have interest in reading a play through with Driven Assimilators, a Devouring Swarm, or a Megacorporation next. I'm pretty tempted to do a serious megacorp run, since last time I did it I just wound ...

First we came to rely on robots, then we really became robots. The Human Technocracy, propelled by its love of technology, science, and those handy robots, began their transformation by adopting cybernetics. This bold step was the first, but not the last. After decades of growing closer to our many ...

The Blorg are a bit of an easter egg in the game. They have hideously ugly fungoid appearance, and are Fanatic Xenophiles and Militarist, if you combine these ethics and appearance during empire creation, or if you create an AI empire like this, the Fanatic Befrienders tag comes up, along with a spe...

Currently I'm 80 years into The Human Technocracy, a couple hours of gameplay. I've taken Earth as my starting system again and built a highly egalitarian people with a focus on research and technology. Governance is technically oligarchic, we value equality, science, and merit. I've wanted to use t...

I enjoyed sharing the exploits of my stellaris game with you guys, but I feel self conscious about spamming the one and only channel we have in group chat. Since we aren't using Discord or something, I thought I'd use this ol' thing. Anyway, no more cats at the moment, but I usually have a stellaris...

So, it's been a minute since I've posted here and I've learned so much since then. In news, I was robbed blind by a Player. He interdicted me while I was hauling 400,000 credits worth of precious metals in my cargo ship, shouted something in spanish, and then blew me out of the sky without ceremony....

I'm making a run looking for what are called "rare goods." These are special commodities that are either special drops from salvage encounters, or are only produced in specific places. They increase in price as you increase distance from where they originate (or were salvaged from, in the ...

So far my fears about Open Play have been unfounded. The radar symbol for a ship controlled by a player is like a hollowed out box. I've seen one. I've been on for hours. Apparently, unless you deliberately meet up with friends, you aren't likely to see any living players. Not because nobody's on, o...
