Own a hyperweapon for galaxy defense, since that's what the devs intended. Four crisis break into my galaxy. "What the shroud?" As I grab my reality perforator and QSO. Blow a star cluster sized hole through the prethroyn, they're dead on the spot. Draw my nicoll-dyson on the compound, miss them entirely because their system is untargetable and nail the neighbors capital. I have to resort to the systemcraft in orbit of my capital loaded with existential erasure beams, "Tally ho lads" the beams shreds the compound and the unbidden in the blast, the subspace shock set off alarms in every station. Charge jump drive and jump the Blokkats. They bleed out waiting on the reinforcements to arrive since erasure beams are impossible to stitch up. Just as the devs intended. from the gigastructural engineering discord :)
I see this as a mix of Jaws & the scene of the guy 'fishing' in the lake in the A-Team movie. Big fish comes up to the boat looking for a snack & the fiaherman tosses a grenade down its throat.

Lathrix: Defeats Kattail when he tries to forcefully unify the galaxy to defeat an existential threat Lathrix literally the next playthrough: Forcefully unifies the galaxy to defeat an existential threat
My first time encountering the Aeternum I had no idea what I was doing. I had spent nearly 300 years as a vassal to one neighbor or another, passing around like a hot potato to whomever won the latest battle over my space. Then my scientists decoded the hyperlane network, and found a hyperspace fold leading into the center of the galaxy. They gazed in wonder at the birch world built around the supermassive black hole at the center, whose surface could hold a population to match the rest of the galaxy's empires combined. At the planets turned into space ships of war which patrolled the space there. And they shot at them. They reasoned that whatever built this would roll over the galaxy like a wave if provoked. They were right. And the rest of the galaxy rued the centuries they spent depriving my people of hope this side of death. We welcomed the dragon we had poked in the eye, reveled in the flames that sterilized the galaxy. We lacked the strength to live free, but by god we had the strength to see everyone die.
my civs would've gone full bulwark, collapsing into one or two systems. The rest? Planet and mooncraft. Let the universe fall, let them try to destroy us. A thousand mooncraft for a systemcraft loses resources for them.
Oh Lathrix, how much have you grown. I still remember you making plagues on a single world... and i still remember you leading the AI rebellions with your microwaves.
My first experience of Aeternum was hands-down the highlight of my time in Stellaris, full stop. I completely missed the mechanic of delaying and debuffing them, and had very low fleet power compared to what they have (this is normal-difficulty Aeternum, for the record). The small damage buff from destroying their ships saved me through a series of skirmishes that ended when I took 2 repaired Aeternite Planetcraft and stormed their Birch World. It was a desperate "blaze of glory" attack that actually worked.
Either I missed something or there was an actual glitch, but I'm pretty sure the very first warning I got for the Aeternum waking was the "they'll wake in like 5 years, good luck bub" message. No 20 year warning. I had all of 1 planetcraft ALMOST finished. I ended up falling back, using what fleet I had and fortress systems to slow their advance while I kept my EHOF running constantly. Managed to move all of my primary population (our "resident" subjects were...less of a priority) to the cohesive systems and began packing it full of megastructures while the entire rest of the Galaxy got eaten until I came storming out with something like 15 planetcraft and an equally absurd number of moons and retook the galaxy. Most recent time, they woke up to the 3 systems leading to the rest of the galaxy having 2 fully upgraded Maginot worlds (well...one system had one full Maginot and 6 Asteroid defenses) with 2 Planetcraft in each supporting them, and another 6 planetcraft as a quick reaction force ready to gateway to any one of those systems.
@@chrisc1140 I left a lot of detail out from my initial comment, but one of the leading factors in my recovery from their attack was my cohesive cluster and the EHOF. I had a hyperstructural assembly yard in the cohesive cluster with a gateway heading to the same system as my EHOF. I used it to spam arc lightning/arc emitter battleships (optimised for cost reduction), which I then fired straight into lone Aeternite fleets. I kept that up until their larger ships had fewer escorts, at which point I ran over them with better versions of my spam ships, serving as my Imperial Armada. I did the same to 2 of their planetcraft, and as I had none of my own, used those to basically sponge the damage from Aiondia's defence systems while the rest of my navy's arc emitters slowly chipped away at them until they crumbled. Meanwhile, my juggernauts (I use a mod to increase their limit) pumped out construction ships to sponge even more damage. The land war was very uneventful. I landed over 100k worth of troops, which ended exactly how you'd expect.
Old comment I know but yeah, similar thing happened to me. Didn’t know what to expect, other than I knew they had a shit ton of fleet power compared to me. Missed the delays and slowdown toggles as well, but I figured having 4 asteroid defense platforms and a star base with a combined 1.3 million power, and then 4 fleets with 3 attack moons worth another 1.5 million would be enough to stall until I got 2 Behemoths running. I figured they’d only send out 1 fleet in each direction in the initial wave to clear out the 3 systems connecting to theirs. Not only did they not just send 1, they sent 4 barreling at me and killed my defensive setup in about 15 seconds. By the time I recovered, they had eaten a third of the galaxy, including almost half of my empire. I had even stupidly placed a lot of my megastructures near the center and they were lost. I’ve pushed that game to the side for now until I decide I want to return to it.
@@clark2501 That's a rough turn of events. I think your best chances would come from either cutting them off using a Nicoll-Dyson Beam, using a Penrose bomb to take out their fleets (requires a black hole chokepoint), or hold out as best as you can until another crisis rears it's head (I'd reckon the 2 other end-game crises could put a serious dent in Aeternum, but then you'd have them to deal with. I don't suppose you'd have enough of a military or economy left to skirmish them in shieldless systems like Pulsars, but that's where I'd try to strike. That, or wall myself in by shooting my own chokepoints with a Nicoll-Dyson and only using an EHOF to move about. Best of luck to you either way.
@@zetarhythm3503 oh yeah, that was the plan. Then I just realized the Blokkats were on their way so now it’s gone from maybe trying it to likely never getting through it. That galaxy is likely done lmao.
@@Ecco_The_Dolphin alloy/tech rush with void dwellers is broken as hell. You basically speedrun getting alloy nano-plants for the broken extra alloy production and focus on getting a secondary species you can use to colonize worlds while you're ramping up alloys
@@Ecco_The_Dolphin To be fair Void Dwellers is probably one of the harder ones as a beginner. Not a lot of districts and buildings, and to get more Habitats earlygame, you need quite a lot of alloys (with the industrial district being worse than other jobs because it only has 2 instead of 3 jobs).
Always good to see a full playthrough. The Aeternum have been quite “””fun””” in my personal playthroughs, I look forward to saying how they treat you in this game.
@@rhyssmith4218 they wait until enough time has passed then they expand like crazy and try to take over everything. If you take them down you can colonize and explore the birch world. "Exploring it take forever and a stupid number of resources but it has a unique system of exploring and a number of random events you can make choices on and get things like resources or entire species of populations to join your empire depending on your choices and the way you set up your expeditions.
Small Expedition on Aiondia - 60 years to explore the world Regular Expedition on Aiondia - 40 years to explore the world Colossal Expedition on Aiondia - ~35 years to explore the world
I think I was 11 or twelve when I first started watching you. My first series was probably you playing robocraft with Aavak. Anyway, I’ve always liked your longer form videos and I love that you do them despite the suboptimal nature of them. Keep having fun and making the videos you like, I’m glad it’s working out for you.
The Aeternum seem like they would go well with having the Blokkats spawn later. Give you the time to deal with all the aftermath and explore the Birch world while waiting on the Blokkats to say hello.
funfact, if you build 2 sentry arrays, you are will have full intalligence on any empire(by the time you can build them) including fallen once, meaining you can see their ship composition
These series are honestly one of the reasons I like the game. Your playthroughs are so inspiring and fun, it's always a good time to try and pull off some stuff I see you do in these. Great work, great commentary, and great fun.
I think it's the mods called more birchworld origins, but with the exception of the hull/sheild for you ships I don't think you can get any of their tech with it (I never could)

Aetermum Navy: Does anyone remember our ships working better last time we did this? Lathrixian Science Gremlins: Micrometeors go brrr. Quantum noise generators go brrrzt! *giggling*
I was darting through my subscriber-feed, gitty with excitement, all through last week, eagerly awaiting the next epic Stellaris upload from Lathy! - - Alas, Sunday I went to bed with sad, yet hopeful eyes... And rightfully so! Was worth the wait! :D Another fun and exciting idea in this one. Can't wait to see what interesting playthroughs you will hatch through all the seemingly new content coming in a few days.
As someone who's been watching you for longer than I can remember, it's so awesome to see you finally growing once more. The content was good, the games just weren't popular
then look at lux aeternum, who can't be debuffed, have tech better than blokkats (though lower buffs and the ships themselves aren't as good), can make unlimited pyskofabricators and start with 3 ships that are roughly systemcraft level for each tech tier (the ships are from a mod that adds many other tech tiers above vanilla, lux aeternum requires said mod and uses the second highest tier [the highest is just obscene and like 10x the second in terms of strength]) (like double durability, but less damaging as no erasure beams) with said better than blokkat tech (said ships also have instant jump drive recharge) they awaken instantly, and more.
Never played a martial alliance before but I do love a good hegemony 😊 I think authoritarian Jis one of my favorite Stellaris gov. Types, even authoritarian pascifist can be fun. Pascifist and egalitarian are my two least favorites. I do ilke inward perfection so oasifist is not the worst but it seems so limiting to me. Anyway thanks Lathrix for the awesome long form videos. These are by far my favorite Stellaris videos! Great work!!
I think it’d be more interesting if you couldn’t destroy the shield and had to land troops to take the Birch World. Kindof an ultimate defense where even if the galaxy could build a fleet that could defeat their fleets that fleet would be useless in finally conquering them.
Wanted to let you know how much I love watching these videos, in the background, and before bed. It’s wild sometimes to fall asleep and wake up right after one of the vids end. Keep up the good work!
Stellaris is a series I wish to continue seeing in the future oh FYI I won my first game I was playing as an isolationist got lucky when the great khan woke up and was able to eat up a bunch of systems that he left and then when the endgame came around I had a ridiculous amount of megastructures and space stations I won by a landslide woot woot
What a nice surprise; was among those that didn't expect you to sneak in another modded run! Overlord does look fun, though. Oddly, more drawn to the Subterranian new origin to use with hive minds than I am the new hive mind specific origin dropping with it. It just seems thematically more fun than the Offspring system! Stacking plantoid radiotropic with adaptive at the start seems fun.
Love your full modded Stellaris Playthrough Lathrix. Been such a fan since i found you on RUclips. Love your future future Lathrix talk 🤣. Always waiting for your vids . Thanks for the entertainment.
At least the Aeternum! Thanks! A shame they didn't manage to get trough the core and begin to shroud some worlds ! I was a bit worried at the beginning when you choose to build the NDB and the hyper shipyard just next to the hyperlanes to the core, but you have crippled them so much they could not manage to move their fleets. Well done, GG
someday lathland, your going to end up fighting the cats or the aeternum without weaking them first. the aeternum are completely ridiculous when they dont have any depuffs on them. i don't think you would have won if you didn't delay them as mush as you did. then again, that's part of the fight against this type of enemy.
@@nicholasthompson6152 I was not saying lathland was unwise in his tactics. I was saying, as someone who is not very good at the game, and can't spend massy amounts of my econ on the systems the mods add to weaning the crises, they are about 100x more powerfull then what lathland experiences here. The aeternum he faced here for example, were nowear near the strength they should have been, and he missed out on some of the more interesting macanics as an result. That and the desperate scramble to protect the galaxy, wish can be quite fun.
A Stellaris video where Lath doesn't butcher every other pronunciation, is ist even worth watching... Even better, he is the source for all of this. Love it, dig it and more or less drop everything when I see one in my timeline. Keep it coming.
Wow i wonder what future future lath did to not even be in the video. And as always this is just GREAT content to watch and as far as I know this is one of the only channels that makes it .
I really appreciate and think it's very cool that you read a lot of text in spite of occasional stutter. I found this channel recently and I enjoy your content.

Can't wait to see what interesting playthroughs you will hatch through all the seemingly new content coming in a few days.
haven't watched a lot of youtube lately, nice to see you're still uploading stellaris
As someone who's been watching you for longer than I can remember, it's so awesome to see you finally growing once more. The content was good, the games just weren't popular
glad to see more of these full playthrough
thanks for always providing good content
Love the full playthroughs, only thing that helps when I struggle with my insomnia
Oh man I LOVE your Stellaris full playthroughs! You always have such fun and creative empires and goals :D
Always good to see a full playthrough.
Having someone else with dyslexia struggling to pronounce the same words that I do is really reassuring. Thank you for not editing them out.
Imagine the Attack-Moons, Behemoth-Planetcrafts and Systemcrafts with the Relay Network from 3.4
Instant Celestial deployment :D
Ah, how delightful, a new Stellaris video! You always seem to broaden my horizons when it comes to this game, Lathrix. Keep it up!
sadly the -90% movement speed makes them a non threat since it will take them centuries to conquer some systems even if you leave them alone :(
without that debuff you will not keep up with them
then look at lux aeternum, who can't be debuffed, have tech better than blokkats (though lower buffs and the ships themselves aren't as good), can make unlimited pyskofabricators and start with 3 ships that are roughly systemcraft level for each tech tier (the ships are from a mod that adds many other tech tiers above vanilla, lux aeternum requires said mod and uses the second highest tier [the highest is just obscene and like 10x the second in terms of strength]) (like double durability, but less damaging as no erasure beams) with said better than blokkat tech (said ships also have instant jump drive recharge) they awaken instantly, and more.
I really enjoy your long form videos. Thank you for continuing them.
I love you and your content, keep it up!
I've been waiting for a new video! Always a treat!
Never played a martial alliance before but I do love a good hegemony 😊 I think authoritarian Jis one of my favorite Stellaris gov. Types, even authoritarian pascifist can be fun. Pascifist and egalitarian are my two least favorites. I do ilke inward perfection so oasifist is not the worst but it seems so limiting to me. Anyway thanks Lathrix for the awesome long form videos. These are by far my favorite Stellaris videos! Great work!!
literally the best channel on RUclips, always a happy day when you upload!
I think it’d be more interesting if you couldn’t destroy the shield and had to land troops to take the Birch World. Kindof an ultimate defense where even if the galaxy could build a fleet that could defeat their fleets that fleet would be useless in finally conquering them.
interaction! love your videos Lath, so happy they're doing well for you and the channel!
Lovely 2-hour video. Binging these is a great way to waste my time instead of studying.
I love these playthroughs so much! Gigas is so fun
Wanted to let you know how much I love watching these videos, in the background, and before bed. It’s wild sometimes to fall asleep and wake up right after one of the vids end. Keep up the good work!
“All hail the great Uniter!”
Im loving the series of videos released recently, makes finding something to watch so much easier
Stellaris is a series I wish to continue seeing in the future oh FYI I won my first game I was playing as an isolationist got lucky when the great khan woke up and was able to eat up a bunch of systems that he left and then when the endgame came around I had a ridiculous amount of megastructures and space stations I won by a landslide woot woot
I too wish to see more stellaris in the future.
What a nice surprise; was among those that didn't expect you to sneak in another modded run! Overlord does look fun, though. Oddly, more drawn to the Subterranian new origin to use with hive minds than I am the new hive mind specific origin dropping with it. It just seems thematically more fun than the Offspring system! Stacking plantoid radiotropic with adaptive at the start seems fun.
A good one for a run and a good appetizer before we move on to overlords !
Question: will you be trying shenanigans with the mercenary enclaves?
thank u so much for this, i needed my sellaris fix before the new update.
i hope u will have as much fun with it as i will :D
Stellaris is a series I wish to see continued in the future :)
Love your full modded Stellaris Playthrough Lathrix. Been such a fan since i found you on RUclips. Love your future future Lathrix talk 🤣. Always waiting for your vids . Thanks for the entertainment.
Please do the full playthroughs always.
At least the Aeternum! Thanks!
A shame they didn't manage to get trough the core and begin to shroud some worlds ! I was a bit worried at the beginning when you choose to build the NDB and the hyper shipyard just next to the hyperlanes to the core, but you have crippled them so much they could not manage to move their fleets. Well done, GG
someday lathland, your going to end up fighting the cats or the aeternum without weaking them first. the aeternum are completely ridiculous when they dont have any depuffs on them. i don't think you would have won if you didn't delay them as mush as you did. then again, that's part of the fight against this type of enemy.
Most tend to fight only when victory is certain run when it's not.
@@nicholasthompson6152 I was not saying lathland was unwise in his tactics. I was saying, as someone who is not very good at the game, and can't spend massy amounts of my econ on the systems the mods add to weaning the crises, they are about 100x more powerfull then what lathland experiences here. The aeternum he faced here for example, were nowear near the strength they should have been, and he missed out on some of the more interesting macanics as an result. That and the desperate scramble to protect the galaxy, wish can be quite fun.
Really looking forward to your Overlord content, keep it up!
I enjoy Stellaris and would like to see it continue. Glory to Thorn!
Always love watching these playthroughs, keep up the good work!
E
FINALLY, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A VIDEO ON AENERNUM FOR SO LOOONNNGGG
You're awesome brother. I love your full playthroughs!!!
I really love these really long videos, pls keep this up!
Great playthrough! I enjoy listening to you speak.
Been binge watching your full playthroughs!
This is about the 5th one and I’m hooked! Thanks for doing these even if the algorithm doesn’t like it!
A Stellaris video where Lath doesn't butcher every other pronunciation, is ist even worth watching...
Even better, he is the source for all of this. Love it, dig it and more or less drop everything when I see one in my timeline.
Keep it coming.
I love you Lathrix and I appreciate YOU
Wow i wonder what future future lath did to not even be in the video.
And as always this is just GREAT content to watch and as far as I know this is one of the only channels that makes it .
Fantastic play through, my newest favourite RUclipsr as a true Brit!!
I really appreciate and think it's very cool that you read a lot of text in spite of occasional stutter. I found this channel recently and I enjoy your content.
Thank you so much for the videos lathrix!!
Love these longer videos, keep it up Lathryx and get some sleep :)
When you understand how this game works, the level of broken powerful you can become is insane xD modded just adds to the insanity. Great video, this gave me a hell of a chuckle and an idea!
Here u go, may the channel grow. The empire must spread
Just perfect as always. Thank you kind sir.
Oh god, what an amazing playthrough, loved it!
A 2 hour long Stellaris video gives me good dreams at night. Im excited for your Overlord content later on.
Love watching these!!! Pls keep em coming:)
As always I love future lathrix. Great video as always too. Love and appreciate your work
I love these full playthroughs, I hope you can keep doing them!
As always an awesome video. Clearly the best format for stellaris !
