Shaped Hyperwarp engines are going to change the game for our empire. Standard warp drives crawled across the stars at half the rate Humans started out at; now, we match their baseline tech. Even with node focusing, there's only one or two LY faster than us, and we aren't constrained by the bothersome nodes.
That not-being-constrained may turn ugly if the Zuul have time to bring Node Cannons to bear on us, but hopefully we can form a new refit fleet group, and hit the enemy before they can muster any such threat.
We've no evidence, even at this late stage, they even mount full cruiser fleets. I'm sure when we assault their dens of evil, we'll find a few surprises.

Alternate title: The Factory of Bad Ideas. No conveyor belts allowed. By the way, never do this, the game is legitimately not set up to maybe even work. This is more or less to test how far this idea can even go after seeing FKOD Gaming try a factory of arms.

My own challenge is a little less strict, as electrical inserters are permitted, but jesus.
This will go until I get frustrated and give up, thats the goal.")

This is it, boys. We either hold them here, or everyone on the planet below is dead. Theyre counting on us. We have to crush their offensive here, and quickly move to counter with everything weve got.")

Been playing this game off and on for a literal decade now, and Ive never seen the AI manage to do this. I thought it was funny enough to break the flow of recordings and go straight to this other human game.
Though things in this burgeoning AI war may not quite go according to our expectations...
No wonder I was so stressed for many of these series, I was playing as the humans, and while I like them, they also fucking suck")

Alright, Im getting a bit salty, but hey. I can feel the game getting annoyed with me too in some small way, and I havent quit yet. Theres Determination now to see this war through to the bitter end.
No matter how many of the people important to me keep getting shot.
Over, and over, and over...

In which I get so annoyed halfway through that I call a field trip and we wander through alternate realities. Yet more glimpses of all the hours Ive put into this game.

We get caught up for ten minutes admiring how poorly our hostile Liir AI has handled, uh, everything. I genuinely dont think they managed a single portion of their empire with basic competency.
I cant even say they maxed out trade. Theyre still on destroyer freighters, a hundred and fifty years into the game.
Genuinely tempted to try and make a go of it. I think in a world where Im leading the Infinite Empire against AI, its already decided at this point. But if I was directing the Black Swimmers, they havent tipped past the point of inevitably losing yet. I would enjoy testing that. I honestly dont know how effectively the Normal AI would employ those beautiful fleets of Voidcutters.
Having used this configuration extensively in several full runs, I do have a few ideas of how Id go after them.

Back to business. That business being, doing the galaxy a favor by eradicating the Zuul. Or maybe were fighting the Humans today. Maybe theyre going to prove a slight bit tougher than we imagined... but surely its only a speedbump on the road to our victory.
Right?")

The task ahead of is daunting. Were surrounded by filthy xenos, with only one race willing to talk turkey. Er, dolphin. Everybody else has to die... or its the end of the human race.
Or worse, if the Zuul get through to us.
The Morrigi continue to confuse me in the weirdest ways, but I guess theyre our first opponent. Get em, boys! ... Hey, where are you dumb birds going?!")

Yeah, couldnt keep me off this game with a stick, even if the last run didnt go great. The deck was stacked against us, and you know what? I still did great. But its time for a new beginning.
The Empire must expand, no matter the cost.")
