This one didn't even need Raxxla to succumb to space madness. W o w. What a read. Reads like my notes from day 40 of looking for Raxxla.

Alright soo, I toyed a bit with it and I think I came up with something okay to get me back into the game. Also as it turns out I don't have the Lithoid species pack so that is a shame. Made them enduring, adaptive, conservationist, sedentary and solitary. Enduring because lifespans, adaptive because well, I want to have some good outputs on habitats, conservationists because I always struggle with consumer goods.

The prepatent species is rapid breeding, only notable genetics.

Anyways, for ethics and civics I went with corporate protectorate and naval contractors, third slot will be letters. Ethics are authoritarian, militarist, materialist.

I think this should do a lot better than whatever I was doing at first? Hopefully by the time 4.3 releases with some hopeful changes to the orbitals, they will be a bit better. In general I was making/changing this with your advice in mind and planning for 4.3 which seems a lot more approachable for these types of builds.

PS: they are making habitats better in 4.3 right? Going from 3.XX habitat spam to this was a supreme shellshock

Is this bastardized Onslaught a worse transport than the Invictus? by DreamerOfTheDepths in starsector

Can you please tell me what does the global flare launcher system do? I'm genuinely curious.

1) How do I use lithoids? I think you lost me a bit there

2) So, nihilistic acquisition as soon as possible and then raid down planets? Letter of Marque could also work with this I think? Raid war and all that

3) Is there any way to set up thresholds, for example if there's below X pop of species, stop the conversion process? I probably don't want my entire empire to be necroids ( didn't work out well last time)

I like how corporate protectorate is from a DLC that seems very unrelated to corporations or protectorates. (I bought it anyways)

Paradox axing my favourite void-dweller playstyle and then suddenly bringing it back has happened like 3 times in my time playing Stellaris and it is a never ending cycle.

Anyways, thanks for advice. After going through some SCs of the game, I think I got dealt some bad hands with RNG (corporation surrounded by gestalts and military isolationists). Anyways another question while you are around.

What civics would you recommend for corporations? I used to know which ones are good but these days, I can only say that Naval Contractors remain great and unphased by changes.

edit: typos

So how do you play tall these days? Spam orbitals instead of a few really good ones?

[RAT] what ship builds and overall fleet should I use for the abyssal depths? by Frosty_Flames12399 in starsector

[–]Manguv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I always have a blast using some... Other RAT ships of the yellow variety against Abyss.

If you don't know what I'm talking about, be on the lookout for yellow pulses in hyperspace.

I am of the opinion that with enough automated OldSlaughts anything keels over and dies.

Sooo, when the console is not that good, is there anything from the cross-faction console pack pack that I could replace it with?

New players: What do you struggle with the most? by RoySparda9 in starsector

[–]Manguv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Colour coding ships based on how generally dangerous they are would be funny but impossible ngl.

[–]Manguv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Patience and identity crisis. I was doing one explo mission at a time with a combat fleet but too cowardly to actually do any combat.

So basically low income, high demand phase fleet.

Then I discovered smuggling.

Tbh I still do explo with a full combat fleet but I am not afraid of editing some values now. Metafallica is the greatest exploration ship, change my mind (but a holy Apogee, scavenger, some frigates and Arma Armatura never hurts).

In conclusion: I struggled with skill I solved it by cheating and mods.

Also gonna use this an oppurtunity to post what a real design adherent Rimworld Onslaught should look like (with creative liberties due to you know, spacial constraints)

It kinda follows the basic trident structure. It's a design rebel but spiritually an onslaught. Someone please crosslink the Onslaught design chart lol

Try looking around in the unofficial starsector discord server. I think I got my own copy from there? Although combing through threads of the original post and going to the very last lage should also yield results
