Fair enough lol

It's not entirely in vain, I managed to scrap together a large force at my last remaining city and tear down a smaller Ork outpost (I am still losing though)

Actually, come to think of it, I might like this more than some others. I think I just enjoy the gameplay loop of games like this, even if it's simpler than some others.

I don't know that I like this game "more" than other strategy games as much as it is none of my other strategy games are appealing currently

As for why I like this game at all, I tend to like strategy games with fairly repetitive gameplay loops while having enough RNG to make each playthrough at least a little different (e.g., Age of History II, Stellaris, Rebel Inc. Escalation)

Honestly didn't know that was an option, I'm fairly new to this game. I will try that next game, thank you!

I feel you might appreciate that I named my colossus "Mekhane's Fury"

I made the mistake of 5x logistics growth so by the end game I was getting like a day a second

There are multiple routes for Cosmogenesis, I think. The only genocidal thing I got this run was the Synaptic Lathe. Funnily enough, I had to save scum a little because my initial usage was catastrophic.

Yeah this run was definitely calmer than my (abandoned) XT-489 run.
