I thought we were actually doomed when they were overrunning our defensive lines, but then this happens.

We can actually challenge them in direct combat? No more bombing worlds and running, no more being blown to smithereens by their fleets? Also, the avatar resurrected?

In another way this was utterly predictable. They can't develop. They have one pattern for their Swarm fleets. They can't change. They can't adapt. We can. We can advance, with our new technologies and Science Nexus. Every moment they are stalemated is a nail in the coffin for them.

Just remember that whether this is our last stand or our great victory, this will be our finest hour. The time we stared down the monsters of the void and the demons of our future, without fear, without trepidation, without division. The day we looked the evils of our past in the eye and said, "To hell with you!"



I think that sums it up rather nicely.

(go ahead and tiebreak/vote, Glass. I triple post because editing triggers no notification.)

Yes, corners are a no-go. You can only jump to Hammerspace around a thin rod.

So what's it going to be? Talk or hide?

The goal is not to cause mayhem. Just saying.

Well, good game everyone.

A win condition is to have 40% of habitable planets, right? What if we let them eat everything except Olympia?

Hammerspace.

Also, they don't know that we're Erin's bird.

No entry point. You need something long. There's no lamps here either, it's all ceiling lights. Hammerspace is unimaginably powerful but still highly limited.

Erin kept careful notes, which are available to any government official.

Roll on the hat and news seperatley.

[6] - Gone horribly right
[2] - Failure

You try to dig around for something to make a hat.

You get a bit... carried away, though. In your quest for materials to make an elaborate hat you rouse the attention of the reporter.

He pulls you up, covered in scrap paper.

"How the hell did a parrot get in here?" he wonders.

"I have the real scoop on Erin-" you say, before realizing that you've forgotten to use Human language and had just been squawking at him.

"SECURITY!!!" he screams.

[6] - Gone horribly right.

You peck his eyes out.

And eat them.

They're annoyingly large and pop in your mouth.

He clutches his eyes and screams at the top of his lungs.

Three guards with guns and one with a stick arrive at the cubicle. It's a small cubicle, so they're within two feet of you.

Next?

(also note that you're Erin Quill's bird, so violence on your part... can't look good on him.)

Playing as a raven man in honor of Ravens are murder by Loud Whispers. Flight opens up some... interesting combat possibilities. I regret not going for crossbows instead of pikes now, cause I can't snipe, but even with a pike it's possible to exploit two-dimensional thinking.

First enemy I fight is a bandit gang led by a necromancer. They're all zombies. Why didn't I expect this?
