  • One System controlled by one dumb dumb begins It's journey to face off against the x25 crisis a full 75 years earlier than the standard! How can one little system complete such a feat? Through friends, forced friends, and more forced friends.
    Today Lathrix completes his first ever true challenge run!

      @@Lathland I have a challenge for you Lathrix that will take you back to the gigastructural engeneering mod. You take the origin that starts you in an extra galactic cluster with a damaged ehof in a neighboring system. You are not allowed to leave the cluster or activate the primordial pillar until either an npc empire opens the primordial pillar OR one of the crisis has taken over the galaxy. No blorkats because they destroy everything but all the other crisis are allowed would even recommend multiple crisis so they can fight amongst each other till one is at the top. The only way you are allowed to contact the rest of the galaxy is after you build a sentry array megastructure.

      @@HandsomeGamerGuy 2 years ago or so you started with a shattered ring with the OP districts. Your pops still had their normal planet preference, meaning you started with one of the best megastructures, could expand freely and only had to worry about rare ressources for district upkeep.
      The then nerfed the origin by adding a ringworld preference trait, meaning your pops could no longer really settle on other planets. Together with the rare ressource upkeep this made the origin essentially into a one planet challenge that was neither fun nor viable. Afterall you can't really maintain an endgame structure with early-game ressources.
      The current iteratation (atleast of the time the video was released) made the starting ringworld into its own special planet type, seperate from normal ringsworlds. Essentially they are normal planet districts but generally stronger. You can also colonise the 2 adjecent ringworld segments, though they need repairs unlocked through tech to gain habitabilty. Also you get the option to turn your ringworlds into normal ringworlds with megastructure engineering.
      Overall the origin is now way more fun, does no longer require rare ressources you dont have early game and gives you pretty much 2 planets in your starting system to settle from the get-go, perfect for a one-system challenge or generally a tall playthrough.

    Neat vid! My last play of Stellaris before I quit due to the 2.0 update was a single system run. Gameplay was different then and my rule was that I could build stations to hold territory and extract resources, but couldn't have pops outside the home system (the head canon being humans couldn't survive space warping). I ended up winning and controlling a good quarter of the galaxy, but I did have the same issue you did with having only one shipyard making it take F-O-R-E-V-E-R to rebuild losses.

And of course the first normal empire i find... is a damn fanatical Purifiers, so i can't even get crap from them.
    I had another match where i wanted to be super friendly federation builder, and i'm stuck between a fallen empire, Khans, and a an empire that is too hostile to try and befriend. And this is how it always is when I try and play anything other than devouring swarms or Gestalt Machines.

    For a cool challenge run, there is a one planet challenge origin for machines within the gigaestructural engineering mod called the Frame, or something of the sort. Very special, very interesting.

    Very good video! I love Megacorps, and criminal heritage is such a unique sub-sub-empire that it's so often overlooked. Always a great time though!

      How can playing as Megacorp with Criminal Heritage handle another Megacorp which have already built Holdings and branches almost everywhere?! I am trying this build and it's so shitty that I cannot get Casus Belli on the Megacorp! Getting more fleet power is hard since the enemy almost always is in a federation already. Is the fleet power checking only the empire power or increases it if it's in a federation?

    One thing I would recommend is using the sol starting system since Mars is a terraforming candidate

    Lath, you should try adapting to the growth limit, you would enjoy seeding mini-empires with a separate influence stream in a huge galaxy, enlightened pre-ftl species make great candidates and you love teching up and being the good guys. Personally runs won militarily by border expansion where I control too much, rather than have the AI do some crazy (sometimes crazy helpful) stuff.
    Developing a sector for basic resources and spinning it off works too, while the core sector surveyed with the Discovery & perfectionist anomaly bonuses to increase the long tern value helps provide sites for later orbitals, arc furnace and perhaps special Dyson Swarms to help feed the ecumenopoli that will be on original hab planets (a relic world start is lore compliant as what was will be).
    I turn off Xenocompatability to avoid insane species numbers and gain pops throughout the game by refugees & immigration, especially with high living standard megacorps able to create Xeno offices later game.

    26:49 "Did you just split off from that other group?" - yes, that's very likely. You got pulled into their war because you have their agreement set so you would defend them if they were declare war on - which is what happened via the new uprising situation. All in all very smart of you, because if the rebels win they would become independent! Although having a vassal split like that can actually be a good thing since its usually very easy to swoop in and re-vassalize the new rump state, especially for you as a Megacorp Overlord. New small AI empire you can vassalize? That's more Branch offices + overlord holdings. As you've discovered this game this combi is extremely strong this patch, and you even intentionally nerfed yourself by playing a Criminal Heritage corp.
    Next time Lathrix you should try something like Remnants Rogue Servitor since it is just so amazing this patch once your first Ecu comes online. The rules are: you can only permanently control your core sector centered on your homeworld (or you could do the same 1 system challenge like this game), with a focus on creating & acquiring as many specialized vassals as possible via spinning off sectors and uplifting primitives and what not. The federation choice is up to you but I would recommend Hegemony since RS get to access it without Domination. 😉

    Ever thought about doing a run with Gigastructural Engineering? Some of the stuff you can get in that is truly insane, and it adds way more mid and end game content, including a mid game crisis and like three end game crises. Really crazy stuff.
