Stations in general need some improvements. The ability to customize them is a must for this type of game.

Harlan just silently wondered whether or not Tomik would approve of Kyle being stabbed right in front of him.

Oh, my borders are fairly secure. I have three fairly powerful fleets roaming around, battling space monsters and generally making sure that no one causes any trouble. I just need to consolidate a little and wait for the aliens to quit fussing about being essentially second-class citizens

The conversion plan is going less than well. Despite educational edicts and peacekeeping forces on the ground, every single alien pop wants to return to their former empire. They're refusing to work in the meantime, and occasionally commit acts of sabotage.
The rival empire is further annoying me by building outpost stations probing towards my territory. I'm about ready to just launch another offensive and conquer them completely. Only thing holding me back is the realization that I'd then have 5 planets full of rebellious aliens to deal with rather than 2.

I don't have orbital mind-control lasers, but I will def get those edicts running.
The only reason I wasn't sure whether to use them or not was because I thought that perhaps they would actually clamp down on ethic-changing. Useful for keeping your own pops in line but terrible for actually changing anything.

So I got into a war with my neighbors, who were encroaching on my own space and had similar tech levels to me. I captured a couple of planets in the fighting, but now things are a bit off-kilter. The pops of those new worlds are very VERY unhappy with me, and only part of it is due to being conquered. Their government ethics mean that they strongly dislike many of my policies and so happiness is basically in the toilet.
However, I want them in my empire so that they can serve as colonists for worlds that my own species cannot handle. Thus I need to go about changing their ethics. Will a couple of Re-education edicts help them see my point of view, or should I just let them sit and wait for a while until they come around?

« on: May 18, 2016, 07:28:28 pm »They eventually increase in tech levels but it takes a long, long time. Unfortunately you can't uplift them just enough to infiltrate, so you either have to hope that the RNG smiles upon you or suck it up and make them a Protectorate.I know that you can uplift species in order to make the Vassals, and from there you can eventually annex them completely (it takes a very long time). How do Protectorates work? Can I eventually integrate them into my empire?
Basically I'd like to avoid simply conquering them completely (making them angry at me) or wiping them out (making everyone ELSE angry at me).

Speaking of primitive species, do they ever improve their tech level on their own? I've been wanting to infiltrate a species so I can (mostly peacefully) annex their world, but so far most of the primitives I've found are in Late Medieval or earlier. Can I uplift them just enough to make infiltration possible?

...Am I the only one seeing space amoebas belonging to various primitive empires flying around? How the heck did a bronze-age civilization wrangle a giant space monster and use it to explore space?
I have to assume it's a bug because it makes no sense whatsoever.

Go with 7. It's the perfect introduction to the series and will give him three campaigns to play through.
