    Over 50 hours of footage and many hours of editing, but here It finally Is! Hope you all enjoy, and remember to like the video If you did indeed like It as It helps out so so much with this type of content that can really cause issues for the channel's analytics! Also..

      Liam McPaul basically, he rushed technology really early on by building lots of the research labs and going for the +20% research options in the tech tree, so that he quickly got the tech from late game, like battleships and the like. This allowed him to start researching the repeatable bonuses early on, and so he ended up getting really OP weaponry, and the economy basically builds itself when you get to that point, as you have all of the economic research done, and megastructures as well, which are just brilliant.

    • @danielburdett7868
      @danielburdett7868 3 роки тому +4

      BananaFace I normally build lots of science and construction ships and just go slow and steady because of influence, and then trade for the resources I really need by floating my economy on a couple of resources that I sell. Most of the time it's minerals in the early game, since they are everywhere. As for the planets, it is good to go for mainly resource buildings at the start, with city and generator districts in between building slots becoming available to keep the pops happy. A lot of the time, you can let amenities get low and improve them later with the upgraded capital buildings you can research. On one of my games my planets mostly had negative amenities at the start, but the rapid research quickly got me better capital buildings. A good thing as well to do for planets is to get the tech to build robots as soon as you can, since they grow alongside the organic pops at a good speed, giving you more pops as well. If you have problems with territory because of other empires cutting you off, the best thing to do is hide your time and build up your military, and then when you are at equal or better fleet size compared to them try to make them a vassal of you, and then if the refuse use the cases believe it gives you on the, and go to war. When you win, or if they accept, you can integrate them in the future, getting all their territory. I hope this helps you out!

  • @102728
    @102728 4 роки тому +21

    The stored research I think comes from the 'leftover' research points after finishing a tech. Basically, if you need 5000 research to finish a tech, but you gain 10000 a month, 5000 goes into the tech and the other 5000 into stored research to be used on the next tech. Otherwise you'd bleed research points with every tech you research, even up to 99% of a month of research. If you have 3-4 month techs, you'd lose 2-3 months a year.

  • @PerfectAlibi1
    @PerfectAlibi1 4 роки тому +276

    Stored research is from research overflow, as you produce more then a piece of tech needs, the overflow gets added onto stored research ^^

    • @DonSeldum
      @DonSeldum 4 роки тому +13

      True - except, when you have 4 months left on a given research and you can see the overflow next month (3 month left etc.)as well, it sorta don't make sense. I was thinking the exact same. But wouldn't this only happen if you have excess tech when finishing a tech or if you don't have any tech selected and you bank the month tech? I think it's either because of anomalies being researched, or tech produced by the planets he conquered in the same month. So if you grab a plant in the middle of a month - you will get 15 days of tech "stored". That would make sense. But anyway - I guess 200 tech don't matter much when you get 60.000 each month :)

I'd never considered that the Scion start, as powerhouse as it is, DOES mean that'll drag you into the War In Heaven even if you're trying to hunker down and isolate. I think that really hindered your ability to focus on, yaknow, prepping! Spent a lot of time suddenly sprawling out and fighting, rather than what I guessed you'd do, and focus on making your entire empire a long-war survivalistic fortress.

    What would you do in this scenario?

    • @davidthorp01
      @davidthorp01 4 роки тому +6

      I’d slowly claw my way back, like I always have, like I always will. Humanity, grips the reigns of destiny and punch slowly. First we rebuild the economy, then we get the Famine under control with a new agri world or refocus on other worlds...it will take time. Hive mind is...well it’s going to be a while. Slowly clip their wings in hit and run engagements, look to do what has been done to you, to others. Cripple their trade lanes with raids, jump in and out of their systems once you achieve jump drive tech (most likely salvaged from said Hive Mind) and play extremely defensive.
      The Space Zombies get the last retribution. After the economy is balanced, the famine is quelled, and the Hivemind is stripped of their existence as a Galactic power...then you deal with them. They get to face the full brunt of your now rebuffed force, world cracker, Titan, Battleship fleets and the works. They shall know wrath. For Humanity Repays in Kind.

  • @StarboyXL9
    @StarboyXL9 4 роки тому +19

    This is hands down your most enjoyable playthrough to watch Lath. I'm not even kidding. I watched the entire thing without losing interest. That's a first for me.
    The slugs can be brutal on pop growth, but in my experience they pay off in the long run because you can negate the growth penalty with either robots, immigration, pop growth tech (genetic ascension path anyone?) or a combination of all three.
    I mean seriously, 20% research from Intellectual governers and 10% bonus unity? If your prepping for the crisis there literally couldn't be a better event you could have gotten.
    I had a think about using Lithoids as livestock for minerals. Imagine for a moment that humanity was enslaved by aliens who used us like cattle. Except instead of eating us they would slaughter us like animals and use our bodies as organic matter to create bio-ships. That's what lithoids feel like when you use them as minerals to feed your forges which make your ships...slightly horrifying.
    Arcology Project + Ring World = Eucumenopolis Ring World. So yes, Arcology project is the better choice. Nothing beats having 4 ring sections of 100's of Metallurgists.
    While ignoring shields is great, you could also have used the Null Void beams as they just eat shields alive for breakfast. Not ideal perhaps, but I know I'm going to test them out on the Unbidden next playthrough and compare results. One reason to go Null Void + Plasma artillery is so that you can spam the Energy weapon damage repeatables. If you get the Unbidden, Null Void + Artillery will do just as well as missiles and Arc weapons, whereas if you get the Scourge, energy just eats them alive so your repeatables aren't useless regardless. If you get the Contingency you have the best of both worlds now, because you have anti-shield energy weapons and really powerful anti-armor energy weapons. Its the ultimate strategy for hedging your bets imo, thought maybe it doesn't matter much when the crisis is in 25X difficulty...
    I like how you went from being Xenophobic Isolationists to full-blown Imperium of Man conquering the galaxy. True quality content.

It also allows you to choose which type of job on the world you would like to see pop move to and then it will move pop that has bonuses in those areas first.
    Hope this helps the micro managing for you.

    "best start i ever had" I can one up that where in a tall playthrough I immediately found the surveyor in the 3rd system I explored, had the irassians as precursors, the ratling relic world and 4 more decent worlds almost all in my core sector, L-Gate, and all that with ringworld start. needless to say the outteching was quick with those two relic worlds
    Edit: forgot to mention, only 2 choke points as well

    • @davidthorp01
      @davidthorp01 4 роки тому +2

      Oh wow. Yea this kicks my Irassians start by a long shot, I had Approximately 2 at first but expanded to 4 by the time I found everything I wanted. Almost got the Great Wound and Elder monster too, but the Fanatic Purifiers to my north bulrushes the system near where I wanted to set up shop, so I had to pull back and call it. Meternex to the North West, Micralx to the south West, and Juvians to my direct West.
      The Meternex proceed to take my good start, and raise it by crushing the Purifiers. Problem is, I’m still learning templates, how to build a Navy, and was fortifying my choke points. I had thought, “Hey now I can relax, humanity is safe, Im half way to terraforming tec, and I’ve got two Generator worlds and a mining world. Tech world is growing; this will be great!”
      Aaaaand then they declare war. My puny little 8K fleet chokes in awe at the size of this man; I shit you not they had Arc Emitters on their battleships before I was anywhere close to researching it.
      It’s a 50 year slug fest. They never go for the kill shot, and i’m too busy slowly pulling together a resistance. I finally get them into a tough spot, ‘one’ of their fleets at this point, just around 30K, winds up cutting my trade lane’s asunder. But it’s traveling alone, and my 2 fleets, 16.6 and 18.3 race to catch it. By now I’ve had the chance to actually steal several engagements worth of Tech, Jump drives, better armor and shields, better guns; I have a chance. I jump one of my fleets ahead, whilst the other tails and stalls them for time. I win my first major engagement through a Pyrrhic Victory. I lost Half my forces and crippled one fleet. But I restored my trade lanes, and had effectively forced them out of my system. They’d only get to take two systems, and only one was a choke point.
      I’m now roughly...50 years from then, it’s the second war, and they were winning again. They had a bloody 56K fleet Mine are 30 and 18 respectively because i’m STILL recovering. And their economy is bullshit. So I cut them in half, pandamonium ensues as I hit and run them into a disorganized mess. (They have 2 other fleets, a 30 and 29K fleet, both I can kill but I need time). I’m almost equal technologically, and it all starts to pay off.
      I’m currently down to having to only fight Two 30K fleets and I have most all of my claimed systems. I just need time to kick them down and I’ll have won a hell of a comeback through status quo. It is, however, exhausting. I don’t know how, but i’ve kept the Galactic market since it’s inception, and am now the 3rd strongest power in the galaxy. (The Meternex and like 1 or 2 others have me beat). And I have Megastructures on the way...ooooh they shall know fear and pain once I’m through. I’ve got a world cracker and Titan in the works (Need more Alloys and Money!)...oooh they shall fear me.
