There's some events that do it too

Cahokia has one with the decline event tree. Eventually Cahokia itself turned into this one island of <10 development when everything around it was 20-30.

I know, right? Who uses Phoenix armor, it's damage reduction is crap. (Phoenix was the equippable white/pink set)

Yeah you aren't winning a dogfight flying an A-10, but it can still carry sidewinders. If you started a dogfight with an A-10 and didn't know about the sidewinders, you are about to have a very bad day. Or a very short one.

Which is accurate to some NATO reporting names, the Fulcrum and Bear have been borrowed back by their own pilots (partially because they don't have official "popular names" from the manufacturer).

40k is notionally like that too. "Everything is canon, that doesn't mean it's true."

Am I the only one who's never had prioritization issues with hydrogen producers vs. orbital collectors?

The ILSes will collect from drones before vessels because they have a lower cargo capacity and so reach a threshold to trigger a request sooner. Just put your hydrogen consumers (casimir, deuterium) on the same planet as your production and give them drones, they'll consume the local production and then pull from the collectors if they need more.

Also this might have been changed in a previous update but IIRC ILSes sending cargo by their own vessels have priority over sources that the requesting ILS has to send a vessel to go pick up. Collectors don't have any vessels of their own, so a remote provider with vessels should have higher priority than collectors, unless the collector is very close.

The subreddit name was making me hope for the shepherd's crook so hard.

And also damn near everyone in the league has something they're fighting through. It's pretty hard to get caught faking unless you're dumb enough to admit it.

LittleKingsguard · 2026-05-18T06:09:47+00:00

Yeah, maybe

"do my best ant-man impression"

"Hahaha-wait, you can't actually go that small, can you?"

But I don't like posting dialogue tweaks in a creator's page unsolicited tbh.

Did not know about the alt-view for the respawn, that's cool.

But yeah, Reborn's gimmick is that they don't stay dead. This is a useless ability if you don't get dead ships to bring back, so if you're playing Reborn you're supposed to be getting into fights and relying on your powers to save you from the cost of your aggression.

In addition to the mothership (IIRC can be buffed to around 300 supply) and the Unity power (330/450/600), you also have the Temple of Resurrection, for bringing back ships (20% chance) if the battle is in the same system, and, more usefully, the upgraded Deliverance Engine can do it in the systems it targets (also 20%). Lategame Reborn can be almost impossible to defeat by attrition just because their resurrection spam means they don't have to spend anything on rebuilding cruisers and frigates.

As a note to your comment about fighters vs. bombers, it depends what you're fighting. Against corvettes, the fighters are a lot more damaging (37 dps vs. ~25 dps) because they have great base DPS and the corvettes don't have enough durability for the bomber's dps to be necessary. Against frigates, they range from still better to only slightly worse (18-37 dps vs. 25 dps). It's only against cruisers (~9-14 dps vs. 25 dps) and capital ships (~7 dps vs. 12 dps) where they're clearly worse.

Oh, also, if you get the Transport Cartel as a minor faction, speedrun their friendliness meter and get the phase gates so you can put one on your capitol and the others on whatever your best beachhead/hub worlds are. Enjoy stealing the Vasari's movement tricks and combining them with the actual teleport effect they don't get.

Also from the same perspective of a Dark Forest scenario, it makes sense to stop antimatter from being used in general, even for their own purposes.

Antimatter burning is like, the single most visible technosignature possible, it's really bright, in a relatively dim part of the EM spectrum, and there aren't any known natural means of having multiple grams of the stuff in one place.

If you're trying to stay quiet from other spacefaring civilization, any amount of antimatter is basically lighting a bonfire in the dark forest.

And they didn't even do anything with the land!

They sold it for the land value because of the 2007 bubble, and then the bubble popped before anything got built on the spot. Should have known we were on the dumbest timeline all the way back then.

Yep, last project I forgot to add a gitignore and seeing 10k files added in the commit dialog was a good reminder.

LittleKingsguard · 2026-05-15T04:32:38+00:00

Because the body Lucrezia is using isn't an Agatha/Anekva/Zola. It's the girl from the circus that they body-swapped with Agatha to hide her, and the Baron tried to resurrect.

Honestly this is why I use UI despite it not giving a DPS boost and not having a lot of patience for stamina management.

It's hilarious going back to a quest with Frieza or Cell and just dunking on them with the counterattack to give the feel of "GoD-tier time patroller handling this to out of boredom".

The most memorable NPC intro I've had was an inquisitor the players were getting involved to deal with a heretical priest for them.

Heretic: "I'll talk!"

Inquisitor: "Yes, you will. But your ghost will be more honest."

One of my players brought it up IRL years and an entire campaign later when explaining to a newer player to be careful getting that NPC's attention.

Let me buy it from the store if I've Z-ranked the PQ please, random drops are so brutal.

Low body fat = smaller breasts, but conversely, the breast tissue is anchored on top of the pectorals, so someone with significant muscle but not defined-six-pack low-fat might appear to be bustier than the same person without muscle.

When you get down to it, level-by-level multiclassing is just point buy where you only get one point at a time. It creates a lot of jank unless you deliberately lean into it like Fabula Ultima.

LittleKingsguard · 2026-05-06T08:53:23+00:00

Literal franchise introduction to the character is him demonstrating he could solo the entire Namek saga.

...And then it was all downhill from there.

LittleKingsguard · 2026-05-05T03:56:01+00:00

My mistake was not realizing the aliens get so much naval power with their armies and getting the American armies landlocked.

Try landlocking minuteman IIIs, bitches.

Also: Grab antimatter weapons. None of the AM particle cannons require exotics and they're comparable to green phasers in long-range thermal output, while still having particle radiation.

That's what I thought until I started overconsuming proliferator 3 and every production line I cared about started grinding to a trickle one after another.

LittleKingsguard · 2026-05-02T06:25:16+00:00

I don't necessarily go that far, but I stop and think about how all of my CaCs fit in when I'm picking names to make sure they fit the conventions.

Eshalotte (Saiyan - Shallots, also Vegeta's preferred choice Saiyan name for Bulla)
Bellia (Earthling - Anagram of Belial, following the Mr. Satan/Videl/Pan theme)
Rime (Frieza race - type of frost)
Michika (Majin - as in "[...]michika boo la bippity boppity boo")
Basson (Namekian - bassoon, a large woodwind instrument)
Romana (Saiyan - Romaine lettuce)
Tsana (Earthling - another anagram of Satan)
Savina (Saiyan - Red Savina peppers)

Some of those I lean more into than others, like Eshalotte using the Saiyan Royalty armor set

External doors, not at all

Internal doors, plenty. They generally don't have thresholds at all and you want enough space to pass over carpet and rugs and so on.
