    Shack! If you kill the dreadnought, you can restore it and take control of it! It's really hard to kill it though, I wouldn't recommend it until you have about a 10k fleet

    My fellow Senators, now is the time. The Clans are distracted by their war with the Hegemony. According to our intel the Hegemony is the stronger but we cannot risk them falling, we must strike while the iron is hot and commit to this war. The clans will fall and we shall gain worlds and influence on the galactic stage.
    Let us unleash our glorious fleet upon the Clans and end their tyranny once and for all!

    the best option for you right now is to join the war against the predator clan by doing hit and run tactics on their mining stations. by disabling their economy not only will they be unable to repair their fleet, but also have trouble building new ones.

  • @hunterredflame2120
    @hunterredflame2120 8 лет назад +15

    A wise choice of actions would be to first aid our, and I say this hesitantly, allies in the Hegemony against our common foe. The next step should be to bring the primitives into the fold, but not enslave them. After all, only those who foolishly insult us and our ways should be put under the whip and in the chains! Which leads to the next point: those individualist Predators are everything we have come to fear whilst exploring the stars, prideful, arrogant, insulting, and dangerous to mankind. The only acceptable method of dealing with such beings is apparent: The whips or the Sword. Either enslavement or complete annihilation! My fellow humans, hear me! Let us smite these curs, and either bring them to heel, or crush them under it!
    (Why is it so fun to roleplay in a manner where slavery is acceptable? I have no clue.)

    • @mastershangchi3410

    This is doctor Jhonmary Len, of the imperial association for scientific research. I act as its representative in the senate.
    The imperial senate is now in session, please declare your generalities, including the party you represent.
    The agenda items are the following:
    How do we intervene in the water between the themlar and the predators?
    The dreadnaught.
    IASR suggests to keep the system containing the ship under close surveillance without attempting to make any contact. This measure should continue until it will be possible to vanquish the ship and possibly disable its control system so that we might reprogram it.
    We also suggest to join the offensive with relatively massive side by side strikes with the themlar fleet in order to break the predator defenses more easily. And of course claim some of their worlds once the war will be over.
    Glory to the Empire and the mighty Emperor.

    • @juimymary9951
      @juimymary9951 8 лет назад

      I can agree on everything except the gladiatorial combat, the predators would be more useful working in the mines and power plants or as troops.
      Though IASR has been drafting the concept for an virtual combat arena for the entertainment of our citizens.

    • @juimymary9951
      @juimymary9951 7 лет назад

      Senator Servious
      (Actually we kind of lack parties ^^; our opinions are quite matched.)
      Senator If I may say, the Themlar have a superior military sthrength than the predators, intervening alongside them would allow us to obtain some of predator worlds for certain, especially now that our military capacities are almost matched.
      Obtaining new worlds also will be useful for when we'll need to face the Themlars afterwards.

    • @juimymary9951
      @juimymary9951 7 лет назад

      Senator Servious Hmmm what you say it's correct. Matter is that this kind of war is completely fleet based, if an opponent has a significant edge, then victory can be certain by a significant amount.
      Though we should probably built up our strength until our military will be powerful enough to exceed by a good amount the power needed to take down a starport, then declare war.

      I am Daniel Wallstorm. I am the representitive of Misriah Armory. We've been suplying the Empire since the unification. We think the war is iminent, and we need to act.
      And the solution for the primite problem is a simple invasion with our new stormtroopers.
      We gonna suply the Empire with many of our products.
      The stormtrooper armor will be good, and their new weapon, the e-11 blaster rifle will be effective.
      Also we have 2 brand new dropship. The sentinel for troop transport, and the lambda for important people, like admirals.
      Also I'm proud to announce the Starfighter program. We gonna implement the fighter jet into space, and we will have carriers.
      This will take some decades.
      Thanks for the listening.
      For the Empire.

We had stayed on the station as to ensure the egg heads could make it out on the escape pods with all their Research Projects as to keep the Empire advancing. Though now i sit in the med-bay, having been impaled getting Tabby In Boots to her escape pod I still see the Empire becoming a great force to be reckoned with even if I'm not there to see it for the severity of my wounds may or may not kill me.

    Research takes longer with larger empires. Research costs are increased by 10% per colonized planet and 1% for every pop. It's why your blue laser tech took longer at 9:45. Also I would suggest avoiding colonizing planets on energy deposits if it is avoidable as the ship shelter will block it.
    Also New Terra is starving...
    If loyal Imperial citizens would upvote this comment so our glorious Emperor will see this I'm sure the empire will thrive once he has been properly informed.

    @MantersDoesMinecraft 8 лет назад +18

    Hold your fire, imperium!
    Now we are not ready for war. The Clan appears to have overextended, but we must wait; Attacking the predators is of no concern of ours yet. A war and occupation of their worlds could anger the Themlars, our only "Friends" but still a superior force to us.
    Not only that, but the predator worlds appear to incompatible with us. However, If we must join, we should by the very least, get an active sensor link to the Themlars beforehand; When there main fleet is spent, or occupied, then we should strike.
    However, remember the following; While I share you thoughts on the scum that lies on our borders, We must think of the empire first and foremost. We still have time, and we MUST use it. Our lust for blood may cost everything we fought so dearly to hold. Remember that...
    Oh, enslave the primitives too.

      @juanrodas3878 7 лет назад +1

      MantersDoesGames, I agree that we should get active sensor links, but I think the war is inevitable. You care for the empire, so think of this. If the predators win (and yes I am aware that they are the underdogs, but so was Trump), we lose our future allies and have them replaced with a hostile threat. In addition, the Themlar would not be angered that we attach the Predators, and in fact, it might better our standing with them.
      And yes, enslave the primitives.

  • @UnknownSquid
    @UnknownSquid 8 лет назад +3

    This is a great chance to weaken them and prevent their spread. Not taking it has a genuine risk of letting the Predators dangerously grow in power. Make sure to play it safe though, regarding combat. They likely have far more economy to rebuild their fleet and sustain an attrition war (hence why the game still lists them as superior), so don't take any big risks that might lead to losing your own fleet. If things end up on the defensive, spaceports were considerably buffed in the big patch, and are by far your most cost effective means of defence at the moment. If assaulting their own stations is too dangerous, consider raiding their mining stations to divide their attention and hamper their ability to fight the Themlar. Every mining station costs them 90 minerals to replace, equivalent to a corvette, and will weaken their ability to endure the war.

    You should take the war to the Clan. Not only would that eliminate your largest threat, but it could also make an ally out of the bugs. Remember, no matter what it accomplishes, the Predator always dies in the end.

  • @commandermike2886
    @commandermike2886 8 лет назад +3

    Shack my advice to you is to back up the thelmar hegemony, the are already receptive to you, and if you support them im sure they will be grateful and be willing to negotiate peace. at the same time, no army can fight a war on two fronts, so eventually you will probably be victorious in the war. this way you take out a enemy and gain an ally all at the same time.

  • @sgtwolf0053
    @sgtwolf0053 8 лет назад +2

    Hmm, I see great opportunity for the Empire in this current situation. We should attack the Predator Clan now while they are at war with the Themlar, BUT we shouldn't do it immediately. I suggest that we ask for Active Sensor Links for the Themlar and if possible, from the Predator Clan. This way we can see how the war fares and which side is winning, allowing us to determine when it is a good time to jump in.
    The expansion towards the Polaris system is a smart move indeed, but I think that building a Frontier Outpost in the Kochab system will serve us greatly as well, for if we do we gain control of all of the Crossroads Nebula and not only that! We can build on Observatory Outpost in the system, allowing us to either study the natives or to possibly enlighten them. They will be out loyal Protectorates and Vassals and if we decide so, we can integrate them peacefully later. Their homeworld and ethics our both suitable for us and so we will be able to cooperate with them.
    I do also suggest that we should focus on expanding our power and influence gain, and also for someone to work on that abandoned farm on New Terra so that planet's population can actually grow! This is all I have to say for now, but I am confident that what ever decision our glorious Emperor makes will be the right one.

Upon further analysis, the realized that these were not mountains, but the skeletal remains of an incredibly massive creature that looks to have died 3.4 million years ago. Dr. Terris has spearheaded research into uncovering more on the matter. Uncover more she did. More details can be found in your local public data center."

    We must destroy the clans in the name of the glorious emperor and for the glory of the Empire.We must not let the xenos filth of the Predators spread. My fellow senators and citizens we must act now in the name of the empire before the war progresses. We must strike hard and fast, using tactics, and cleverness to overwhelm the clans while they are busy with the Hegemony . So my fellow people we must act now!! Join the imperial navy and army to do your part for the empire today.Together we can make a better future for the empire.

    Let them fight on their own in the beginning stages of the war, both sides will exhaust resources, giving the empire time to build up resources... then based on how the war proceeds..
    Predator dominate; join the fight, attack from behind, seize territory and add to your empire, this will add to your resources, while also strengthening your position in the galaxy, and save face with your tentative alliance..
    Hegemony dominate; again, attack from behind, gather resources and territory.. the goal is to rival the hegemony so they do not become dominant...
    Both sides are weak; let them fight to the point of breaking, then launch a two pronged attack against both.. claim both territories as your own and seize the destiny that is the birth right of the Empire !!!

    Remember that the Predators just got a new colony which wont have a spaceport. Hint, Hint... You can straight up get troops on that planet, significantly boosting your warscore and probably allowing you to claim said world. Also, can't the Predators colonize Tomb worlds or something? I mean you got a big one o those where your current outpost is, so if you were to colonize there you can save that 1 influence/month.

    @pikmindandaniel5549 7 лет назад +1

    Now is the time to strike. While your enemy is distracted by the Themlar Hegemony, strike at their territory, especially their mining stations. Their mining stations are weak, and relatively undefended compared to your fleet. Overwhelm their stations with raw firepower to ensure their destruction. Cripple their economy, then go after their fleets if you so wish. Or you can let the Themlar Hegemony deal with their ships, allowing you to take significantly less casualties. This will ensure that, win or lose, the Predator Clan will have suffered a massive loss. While they are hemorrhaging resources and research, you can afford expansion, allowing for a massive military and technology buildup. By the time they return to prewar levels, well... In the second war, you will ensure that the Predator clan will never challenge your might ever again. This is, of course, relying on the fact they use mining stations as much as you do. If they rely more on planetary resources, a change of stratagem might be in order. Perhaps while their fleets are engaged by the Themlar, you blockade their planets and bombard them from orbit. Note: This method is FAR more effective if you change your fleet's bombardment policy from 'Light' to 'Limited" bombardment. This guarantees that all facilities on the surface will be inoperable during the bombardment/blockade. Regardless of my endless ability to ramble, my vote is: TO WAR!

  • @KanekiKen-fc3qo
    @KanekiKen-fc3qo 8 лет назад +1

    Well I think you should take the safe route and let them both fight it out cause even if you were to defeat the predators and split half their territory the predators would most likely rebel and that would take a lot out of economy I say for now build up your fleet and your worlds then once you build up your worlds and ya have a somewhat stable economy then start expanding. Or ya could yolo it and help your allies take out the predators either way there is benefit and there are some downfalls to it but if ya decide to stay out of the fight and let them fight it out then if your allies win then I suggest staying cool with them till you are stronger and destroy those alien scum ALL HAIL THE EMPEROR!!!

  • @Wolfeson28
    @Wolfeson28 7 лет назад +1

    You definitely need to get involved against the predators. As you said, if the predators win, they will most likely become too strong for you to ever stop, and you won't have the potential support of the Thelmar anymore. Don't attack immediately, though; let the predators turn their full attention to the Thelmar, while you make final preparations for the fleet (maybe wait for the armor tech to finish), and decide exactly where you want to attack the predators and what you want to take from them.
    Give it maybe 1-2 years while you make final preparations, but keep a close eye on the predators' and the Thelmar's respective fleet strengths during that time. If the predators' strength drops to lower than yours, or if it looks like the Thelmar are starting to lose, attack immediately.

    Never let a good crisis go to waste... wait just a bit to let the predators commit their fleets to the war, then ninja the 2 southern most planets out from under the Predators. Easy war goal and you don't need to get to 100% to end the war and claim the worlds. This is what I would do with a militaristic race. With a more peaceful race I would "Liberate" them instead. That will create a new empire that is favorable to you.. also changes the ethics of the new empire to match yours which makes it very easy to then ally with the "Liberated" worlds.

And when you take the predators and kill those pirates you should aim for the dreadnought.
