I actually had a game with the Gigastructures mod where I owned a bunch of black holes on my borders.
Awakened Empire stepped into those systems and I blew one of my Penrose spheres and took them all out. Their last remaining planet was an easy kill.

@@bookshop7337 so pre heresy imperium then
Oh for the greater goods sake
What about the xenophiles
There are other events that can trigger an instant awakening:
When an endgame crises happens, the xenophile fallen empire can awaken to protect the galaxy. This can also happen during a war in heaven, so it's possible for 3 fallen empires to awaken
If you blow up a holy world with a colossus then the spiritualist fallen empire will send you a very threatening message and instantly awaken
Green Pony yea the xenophile are pretty chill there the only empire I don’t wipe out as they have nothing against me and nothing against them lol plus they actually like my empire usual so there friends and I have to use em to fight the crises lol
Because of that you can theoretically have 5 at once (Mats/'philes awaken and rival the 'phobes, this starts the war in heaven wake-up timer, the contingency spawn and wake up the 'philes/Mats and Carers, the 'phobes wake up, you crack the Spirit world. If the war in heaven starts before the contingency wakes up a guardian, they'll stay asleep. A rarer way for a 5 way wakeup is 'phobes and spirits being rivals [~1.67%] and both mats and 'philes becoming guardians [10%] and carers getting woken [100% if contingency w/ 33% to be berserker])
For some extra fun you can open the L-gates to get the tempest and watch the first and (hopefully) last galactic free for all.
What is message give message
Also, if the Contingency awakens, an Ancient Caretakers fallen empire can go berserk and try to destroy anyone near them.

I love xenophile fallen empire, they are so cute
@@yimingwang8037I went to war against the benevolent interventionists because fuck them I’m space America 🇺🇸 🦅
The Unbidden emerged during the War in Heaven, and now I’m fighting them all alone :(
Yeah it's somewhat annoying how AE events, and Crisis events can fire off at the same time. I was leading the none aligned powers to victory, and doing rather well until the Prethoryn Swarm decided to spawn on my rim systems where I had zero defenses. So now I have TWO AE's to defend against plus the Crisis to fight entirely by myself.
I know the pain
Happened to me too, I ended up quitting because my fleets were far af away from the unbidden and were busy fighting a fallen empire.
One of my almost end game games was pretty much lost this way. i was the strongest AI empire in the galaxy (and basically could hold against both awakened empires pretty easily) and decided to role play as drones that are interested in researching only and pretty much not get involved. so naturally i went neutral. after they kept crashing a few fleets in my choke points i decided its time to put an end to their bullshit and charge. went a bit streched but was killed one of them and forced them out of the war. meanwhile my federation ally was having troubles with the other AE so i decided to send my fleet to help them. Problem is fucking contingency spawned and not only did it spawned during a 2 front war against 2 pretty strong opponents its spawned RIGHT IN MY FUCKING RING WORLD CORE WORLDS. and i didn t have the fire power to take them down with just one fleets (since only 1 fleet wasa vailable the rest were pretty far. and pretty much got shrekt and lost.
Lol there was a time where the unbidden was fighting a AE for my game. It was fun to see the unbidden get scorched then the other 2 showed up and was like a 3 way war.
The AE got wiped out and the other 2 invaders nearly wiped themselves out and left the scraps for me to take care of

Oh god I remember when this first happened to me, I was losing on both fronts against the ghost signal and then they declared me the head of the federation,I only had 2 fleets left, I was curbed stomped, I was losing all my resources and I didn’t have the resources to make new ships

@@marsar1775 What do you want?
I love how the War in Heaven (and the fallen empires in general) is basically a homage to Babylon 5. They even lifted some of the text for the event directly from the show. Stellaris is a love letter to Sci Fi, tbh

First playthrough, a fallen empire awakened, the benevolent interventionalists, a few years later the unbidden came along. Didn't know much about the game so ignored them at first seeing as they were across the galaxy realised the unbidden were an endgame crisis when they popped up in the galactic senate as someone to gather against. I went to check back and saw 2 fallen empires just stomping them back into oblivion.

War in heaven: starts Smaller empires: *chuckles* I’m in danger
According to the Stellaris Wiki, a normal empire needs to have above 50k, that the awakening event can happen.
You have to outlaw AI now, if you are a subject under the spiritualists, the materialists no longer demand that. This is not updated in the wiki.
You could have also mentioned the Guardians of the Galaxy mechanics.
In the War in Heaven, you can also pick the option to be completely independent, not even in the League of Non-Alligned Nations. That means, you are not in the war, but will potentially get attacked afterwards from the winning side.
But what about the machine empire? The corrupted one that puts random restrictions on you at times?
It took me 4 months to realize he said John Sheridan and to connect War in Heaven to Babylon 5
Stellaris is the gateway drug for 4x games. The story events make all the numbers less scary. Learning the game didn't feel like a chore.
Ya but it still takes a while to learn all mechanics
To be honest I hoped for more in-depth look at their mechanics. For example you didn't even mentioned about decadency (and related to that mechanics). Another thing not even mentioned (though this one is rather minor thing - still, I feel it should be mentioned if you plan to talk about Awakened Empires) is reaction of Spiritual Fallen Empire on destruction of one of their Holy Planets. One more thing that was not mentioned is their ability to wake up with arrival of Crisis and how they may see themselfs as protectors of the galaxy (and how Xenophobe will never do such thing). But please, don't get me wrong - really nice video, and I watched it with pleassure.
My Necrons look forward to the war in Heaven event XD
*Foolish meatbags*
Marcus heresy detected
At the begging of the video I was thinking about how the Fallen Empiers were like the Vorlons or Shadows, and not a minute in, we get the Babalyon 5 joke.
I approve.
I mean, the whole thing is a blatant reference, the “giants in the playground” comment, telling them to get the hell out of your galaxy, and the achievement you get for leading the league of non-aligned worlds to victory is “last, best hope”
That opening made me click subscribe so fast. I lurked the channel for too long, but finally sealed the deal.
In my last play through I actually got a war in heaven event, I chose to go it solo and declared war on both immediately. Within 10 years the capitals of the FE had been bombarded to tomb worlds. Humanity first!
Amazing intro...just so perfect.
Hey ASpec, would you mind doing a video about the Wanderlust event chain? I haven’t seen any other channels that have posted one.
In my most reacent playthrough i have around 10 million fleet power, the year is 2320... (its pretty heavily modded, but still) And im a determined exterminator, so i think ill just MURDER everyone if the war in heaven starts, thank you very much.
You should challenge yourself, and declare war on all 3 factions simultaneously in a massive extermination crusade, spearheaded by a colossus.
@@josephcola9662 the problem with that is that i would STILL win without even trying against the rest of the empires in the galaxy, including fallen ones, combined they all have around 1 million fleet power and my economy makes it so that i can double my fleet power in a couple of years...

Me: Alright, we have a chance now.
*Does absolutely nothing and only goes to war with shit AI who don’t think.*

I never thought abt that I'm gonna make a super secure one world somewhere far away with like 500k fleet just sitting there
John Sheridan - yeah, some B5 love!
"Now get the hell out of our galaxy!"
This video gave me and idea for an end game Crisis. The Pact: Millennia ago, the Fallen Empires where locked in a terrible war with each other. After centuries of stalemate they agreed to a pact. They would all return to their core systems, and if any of them ever left they would all immediately go to war again. Now with the new powers growing new opportunities arise and the fragile peace is broken. ( All FE awakens at the same time, and start an all out war against anyone who wont become a vassal.) Could be amazing!
I had the fun startup where I had enough repeated tech for my star bases to quarantine the fallen empires. They went to war, but were unable to leave their respective areas.
Deathklok at the start made me laugh lo loud, I immediatly liked just for that AWAKEN/10
That was not just a Dethklok, that was Batmetal.
Let's see, let's see...
Dethklok and B5 jokes are out of question straight away, someone more than likely shouted somewhere in the comments about awakening their masters... Well, one option left with all that thrall-talk.
Bring back lots of minerals, Captain.
And radioactives. Our rave pa... I mean war effort could really use them.
------
Why did you have to do that to me, Aspec? I like Star Control 2 as much as the other guy, but it's not like there are that many oblivious places to attach it.
That was not just a Dethklok, that was Batmetal.
I appreciate the Dethklok opening. It was one of my 2 favourite Dethklok songs too!
Anyway, what happened during my first War in Heaven was that the empire of my vassals and mine completely surrounded both Fallen Empires, and I did not yet have the fleet power to hold them back. So if I were to pick a side, the other FE would immediately crush my empire. Likewise, if I would oppose both of them they'd both just crush me. So I had to stay out of it completely.
However, this did cause a small problem: I could not end the War in Heaven event without completely destroying every party involved. You see, after I dealt with the end-game crisis that spawned in the middle of the War in Heaven, I tried eliminating one of the FEs to end the war. That did not work, because upon destroying the FE their side's leadership was just passed on to one of their vassals. So I destroyed all the vassals. Nope, that didn't work either. Sure, the actual war was over, but the War in Heaven event itself was still running. And considering that every empire but mine picked a side in the war, this meant that I literally could not end the event, and thus win the game, until literally every empire but mine was destroyed. That took a while.
That was not just a Dethklok, that was Batmetal.
MY MASTER AWAKEND MEEEEE!
Made my day with that Dethklok at the start lol
The five dislikes are from the Awakened Empires.
Materialist AE vs Spiritualist AE presents an interesting dynamic for spiritualist empires (and gestalts). Basically, submitting to the Spiritualists makes you become F Spiritualist and authoritarian... and the materialists make you ban AI and and pay some science... a spiritualist who's already authoritarian will have no problem joining the Spiritualists, but an individualistic spiritualist empire may not want to change ethics and may in fact find it better to side with the materialists if they don't mind the loss of science... Gestalts, especially MEs may, ironically, be more tempted to join the spiritualist AE since the ethics don't change, and it essentially means no loss besides independence... So what would make sense thematically... doesn't actually make sense thematically, because most spiritualists will join the Materialist AE, and a lot of gestalts, including ME's would benefit more going with the spiritualist AE...
This is a really interesting dynamic... and one that doesn't occur for Xenophile AE vs Xenophobe AE... food for the thought...
Sounds plausible. If you are a believer yourself, you can cope better with unbelievers than with people who adhere to the wrong faith. HERETICS!
Enjoying this channels great content
+1 for the B5 shout out.
All we need now is the FE to start asking “Who are you?” And “What do you want?”
HOLY HELL, THAT BABYLON 5 REFERENCE AT THE BEGINNING!
Man, you are my fucking hero for that
2 years after the video was released i get around to watch it and dear god i did not expect a babylon 5 reference
Fleets : " OUR MASTERS HAVE AWAKENED US !! "
what if you open the l-gate and unleash the grey tempest and retreat into one of their systems to create a ringworld while keeping the tempest alive and swarming the galaxy
there usually are systems in the l-cluster that have only a single hyperlane that you can hold and then you build a ringworld for your civilization and then you can just watch the galaxy burn and basically gtfo
The good ol galactic lifeboat.
In claster start you can have claster of stars with one connecting hyperline.

Could have saved 9 mins by just saying this is the plot to babylon 5
Not that im complaining. Now i can be Sheridan
Nice choice in music for Clair de lune to dethklok awaking lmao
Awakened empires rebuild planets with their special buildings; if you are able to, take down a fallen empire and leave them 1 planet. This makes it easy to decide which systems you will give them once they awaken so they can build them up for you with tech you just don't get. From there it's a game of containment.

i remember taking out a FE but didnt have enough influence to take their last tiny planet, it was enough to start a war in heaven that lasted a hundred years, oof.
Zdarza się.
I got war in heaven so I quickly built up my forces only for the crisis warning to appear. I stayed out of the war to crush most of the crisis (left some to divide the attention of one of the FE) but by the time I joined EVERY system (large map) had a 80k-100k+ station and fleets in every third system. I had a 400k total fleet power.😅 I didn’t win

Yo showing off music from the Legend of 1900 you dog you!! I love that movie.
Hello everyone. I'm erm, asking for a friend here. What, hypothetically, should one do if a four-way War in Heaven starts half a decade after the Contingency appears, and ones empire was just ravaged by a federation prior to this and you've lost half your planets, three quarters of your remaining pops and the vast majority your fleet? It's for a friend, promise.
Sit back, put on some 3d glasses, and watch the fireworks.
It took me an embarrassingly long time and an embarrassing few saves destroyed before I realized that Awakened Empires were actually just Fallen Empires and I could nip them right in the bud by conquering them, so now as soon as I get some decent fleet power the first thing I do is claim all their stuff and declare war.
Same, FE also don't reinforce their fleets, so even if you don't manage to beat them at first, you can try again 10 years later, as long as they don't awaken during those 10 years.

We're doing the only stealing on this property and we're damn good too.
Loved the Dethklok song haha, it fit well with this.
the first time i built up enough fleet power to steamroll an awoken empire was the best feeling ever
I had 4 or 5 fallen empires as I was playing Extermination machines. None of the empires awaken, even with my fleet power, combined over 500K, actually I had 16 fleets with each one, almost reaching 100K with 5 being 100K... Well, Fallen Empire mistakes.
Once I was playing a random game absorbing the galaxy by authoritarian means and whilst in the middle of ‘Aquiring fallen empire assets’ they decided to awaken during our ‘war of aquisition’ because my technology level rose very high when I murdered the spiritualist ones
This only prolonged their life for about 10 mins since I only gave them enough time to build 1 additional fleet
And that was the day I realised that genetically enhanced Psychic Cyborgs do in fact exist and are extremely powerful
In my experience its pretty random which of the 3 sides an empires chooses and not linked it its ethics.
I once joined the FE with my ethics (materialist), and all other empires joined the other FE LOL
did you cleanse the galaxy of the infidel afterwards?
