    Fun fact: Since the ship has a jump drive, you can use it to take over the Habinte unified worlds in the dacha system in that whole event chain and get like 300 pops on multiple gaia worlds for free. Usually they block the hyperlanes off as soon as you attack them but this and the scion ships can bypass that.

      I was not aware, at that point, that this was possible. I thought the chance was still low, which it is for regular empires. 90% is almost guaranteed
      Other than the admiral, the rest of the origin is pretty crap though...

      @MontuPlays  4 месяца назад +13

      Also, I've checked all the comments on that video. No one (and I mean no one) even got close to mentioning Skrand as a viable strategy for Galactic Doorstep.
      That's probably partly due to the fact the chance was 20% not 90%, so it was much less viable. But still, without skrand it's solid C Tier (F tier in my estimation due to personal prejudice though, as mentioned in that video)

    Something I would like to attempt at some point in the future involves this origin and the Dark Matter Consortium civic. See, there's an agenda that unlocks for that civic as soon as you unlock your first T5 tech (the Gateway Construction being the main goal of the empire) which flat out GIVES you Dark Matter components for your ships. These are power source (whatever), shields (great until you get psi shields), and thrusters which are incredibly strong (at about 5x the speed of normal thrusters). I'd be interested in your thoughts on this idea.

    I think there is some really underrated potential with the under one rule origin. Under one Rule with distinguished admiralty and a commander as your starting leader means that your ruler will start at level 6 and can start with a trait that gives +30% mineral and +15% alloy/CG output. The problem I have is consumer goods. I can't seem to get a good enough stockpile in order to flip production by 2220.
    On a side note, I also seem to be struggling with unity with this build.

By around 2220 I've only got around 3.5k CG stored, but if I swap production to alloys my CG drains too fast for me to build up a large stockpile of alloys.

      ​@@bretthuff8971I do a really stupid thing with Under One Rule new tech update. If you take xenophile, you can get Brain Poacher, which gives you +18 research of each kind with a migration treaty. I settle every planet I find, even the 0% ones, and make a vassal from each system. Then, I sign a migration treaty with each vassal and watch the science roll in. If you abuse immigration pull, you can get some pretty insane levels of pop growth on your core worlds. If you use this with trade, you can tax your own commercial pacts and get some wild energy credit income, all while having low sprawl.

    I played my second game a few days ago. It was my first time creating a custom empire. Was looking through the origins and species, trying to come up with a theme/story. I settled on galactic doorstep with Avian species. The idea being that these creatures from their earliest beginnings have always soared through the skies, and now wanted to be the fastest travelers in the galaxy. So I geared the towards physics/propulsion specialties. With their dream being to reactivate the gate way and travel the cosmos. The shear shock when I saw the conclusion was a legendary Avian commander, I couldn’t believe just how perfect that worked out. Sadly a patch the next day corrupted my save, and I never got to use him :(

    Looks like an awesome build to try, it does highlight that the absurd 10 year truce in this game needs to change imo. Like what's stopping empires from ignoring a treaty dishonorably for a suprise attack? An invisible wall of 10 years apparently, they should replace the 10 year truce with an honor system instead so rather then waiting 10 years you just gain dishonor which makes getting new treaties very difficult.

    Gateway construction is a t5 tech. This means that with the Dark Consortium civic you can go right into Dark Matter tech right after completing gateway research. I had dark matter thrusters by year 38 in my test play of this. Being able to sell your early dark matter also helps meet the gateway activation costs.

  • @nicholaswallace2575

    They should add a new legendary paragon from Skrand’s species who will only come out if Skrand gets out. maybe a rival, maybe a respected colleague but that should act as a potential counter to this early game power spike. Maybe instead of it just being an admiral for final flight 2 electric boogaloo, it could be a scientist who can allow you to add those powerful strike craft to to your own hangar bays. Or maybe because it’s a member of skrand’s species, there could be a storyline which causes skrand to not participate in a war with the empire who found them. If galactic doorstep is now amongst the broken origins, it just goes to show how many interesting options there are out there to make the galaxy feel alive.

    Does not seem to work with Driven Assimilator. I tried a few times and saved scummed (unless the save points weren't early enough). Did anyone have any success with DA? Did have success with fleshy humanoids. Very cool playthrough. Must be Skrand is not open to being one of us.

    • @Jernsaxe

      The fix is just to not have two multiplicative stacking modifiers effect the spawn rate, a 4x or a 10x wouldn't be a problem, but a 40x is :)

      A reanimated dragon with extra bonuses, probably. But the normal dragon, not really...
      You can also get skrand much earlier (5+ years) before someone can reanimate their dragon, so it does trump the reanimation strategy

    One thing I don't quite understand is "Launching agendas using Unity."
    What determines its cost? It seems to start at a whopping 20k Unity (at less than 100 Empire Size I assume) and then gets almost exponentially cheaper.
    The wiki states, "Agendas can be launched by paying Unity equal to the amount of progress left. " But this seems obviously untrue, unless I'm misunderstanding something.

    • @MontuPlays
      @MontuPlays  4 месяца назад +1

      The cost of rushing falls off exponentially as you get closer to finishing the agenda. At about 50-60% it starts decreasing linearly though. At least below 100 empire size.
      Don't know the exact numbers on it though. Could figure it out 🤔
