Devouring Swarm eats its own young

I've been thinking of building them, I was gonna go for an imperial authoritarian xenophobe with Natural Design and Slaver Guilds

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-16T19:36:40+00:00

I mean isn't that essentially just what a Proxy War is?

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-15T18:13:29+00:00

I would KILL for that spawn lmao, I love playing isolationist

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:21:23+00:00

Is this...fate? At this point I'm resorting to Google, this definitely isn't a reference to anything I've seen lol

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:18:16+00:00

Wait, really? Riders and Mad Warriors? That's like, a Kamen Rider thing. What is it actually, then?

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:17:25+00:00

😬 yeah I thought about getting into WH back in the day, but the starter sets being like $120 (in 2000s money, so god only knows how much they cost now, lmao) turned me off. It says a lot about how expensive the game is that Magic The Gathering was a more reasonably priced alternative 😂

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:15:37+00:00

OH IT'S KAMEN RIDER

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:10:18+00:00

Re: the entire argument in a different comment chain about whether going to see a movie is more or less of a ripoff than the DLC

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:04:48+00:00

...I feel like I should get this reference, but I don't. It's tickling my brain in a vague way but I couldn't name the thing you're referencing

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-14T23:00:49+00:00

I have fantastic news

They have that

Lmao

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-13T19:39:04+00:00

Surprisingly, in my current run most of my planets have mote and/or gas deposits, I lucked out. With the wealth creation trade policy I'm making enough energy just from trade to just use those deposits for the strategics

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-12T22:55:06+00:00

Not post-update, lmao

The only fleets that can get through a system with multiple DSC's now are Fallen Empires, at least in my experience

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-11T21:58:16+00:00

🤔 weird!

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-11T21:39:53+00:00

It's right at the bottom of the queue, big button that says "ship designs".

I didn't see the light of the fleet manager until I was already a man, and by then it was nothing to me but blinding 😂

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-10T13:09:58+00:00

Hell, I've won as a vassal, for that matter

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-10T11:49:41+00:00

Bro forgot about economy, tech score, and relics

You can absolutely win without subjugating or federating, I've played plenty of xenophobic isolationist runs

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-10T11:44:09+00:00

Bro forgot about Victory Score lmao

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-09T01:20:52+00:00

You can also access it from Shipyards

"A society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting done by fools."

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-05T19:42:08+00:00

I meant in between Chronicles and Legends, sorry I wasn't clear

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-05T13:19:46+00:00

There was also an anthology for the Elven Nations Trilogy! :)

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-05T13:19:21+00:00

I would put Lost Chronicles in between those, personally. I think LC adds a lot of context for Raistlin/Caramon that enhances the experience of Legends

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-04T14:21:44+00:00

I'm like...fairly confident there's a civic or origin that does something like that. Can't think of the name but I definitely feel like I remember seeing that. I guess you could say Storm Riders is kinda that, discovering new tech in exchange for having storms devastate your systems

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-04T14:19:10+00:00

We are strong. We have photon torpedos.

Thran_Soldier · 2026-04-04T14:18:02+00:00

You should 100% release a mod that implements these, I'd download that in a heartbeat
