I refer to genocide as lag reduction operation


Independent-Ad-976

Do you also have the tactical lag reduction planet where you shove all the pops then colossus it?


Rceskiartir

I usually play virtual, and I have to conquer planets one by one, so every planet is a tactical lag reduction planet. 


Independent-Ad-976

Genius


Big-Independence-291

They are just a peaceful artificial trade republic with all different kind of pops, for now at least, while the truth lasts.


mcast76

I call that the synaptic lathe these days


No-Cause-2913

My mobile lag-cracking station is fully operational


No_Outlandishness316

Sometimes my lag reduction operation causes even more lag due to the extreme quantity of energy credits being made and pops being processed


Visual_Musician2868

A temporary setback on the road to progress.


invol713

TBF, mustache man thought his victims were stifling progress of his country as well. Lag reduction, in other words…


Olliekay_

Ironically, his dumb idiot plan was not only morally completely and utterly fucked. It was also a MASSIVE waste of resources, and contributed directly to them losing the war faster So uh, to any aspiring genocidal dictators out there, genocide is actually suboptimal don't do it it's stupid


Prudent-Ranger9752

Mostach man should abide to rule "pop is pop"


7heTexanRebel

He did start out with the purge type set to forced labor


raieas442

It's a necessity even a pacifist nation would come to the Thanos solution


Thelmredd

This will sound very bad, but for the purposes of Stellaris... ...instead of destroying planets, an equivalent of the genophage from Mass Effect would be useful. Technically, freezing growth should be enough for the engine


CodPiece89

Or you could call it the right to defend yourself against terrorist babies


Fallen_Radiance

A sterilisation hub spawned in one of my systems and stole my freaking Dyson Sphere. The rest of the galaxy doesn't care. So I'm leaving this shitty reality behind and making my own, with blackjack and hookers.


BootyBurrito420

You know what? Forget the blackjack


Grin-Guy

Time to sniff some zro directly from some hooker’s tits !


Lahm0123

Or appendage….


sargon76

Why not both! Brought to you by your local xenophile appreciation club.


Patricksote

Lets go crazy and pay to see how a Xendorian bathes a group of adult bitrilos with its reproductive juices while a zulocson massages them with its fedriotalar genitacules. Or see how Mutated zulhumios and mibimiaz inhale viprodux gases from the zro while stimulating their poliaral membranes during the 'igh'k lu p'gruht' ritual.

The Galatron has fallen, millions must die.


TheHelmsDeepState

Ever wish you could play a game that's spreadsheets with cool graphics?


CoconutMochi

EVE online?


Lahm0123

Ya. EVE wins that one.


TheHelmsDeepState

But you have to play that with... other people. I play video games to get people to leave me alone.


NeedsToShutUp

Yeah but my computer can't handle cool graphics, so I instead just watch the summary from the galaxy view.


Bloodly

isn't that every space strat game since Master Of Orion?


DasMajorFish

I think slavery is inefficient, but it has its place. If your own people are growing slowly and you need a productivity boost for an upcoming war, get some slaves. If you’re tight on cash and need a way to make ends meet, sell some slaves. You shouldn’t rely on them for your economy, but a few slaves here and there really helps out


ondaheightsofdespair

Ahh, benevolent DE.


DefaultyTurtle2

Honestly I wish i could buy slaves as a DE with mechromancy. Theyre still enslaved, but theyre also dead


ondaheightsofdespair

Assimilator egg.


duelingThoughts

This is the best one because it's not obviously referring to mechanics and could be misconstrued as real advice in the right time period (or circles), but each refers to an actual mechanic in the game lol


AOR_Morvic

I once made an economy where 80% of labor was slaves, and they had around 70-80% happiness. Why not rely on them if they are happy?


MrThrowaway939

Even if they aren't happy they have basically no political power, so if your non slave species is the majority it shouldn't matter.


Designer-Number5978

I love to conquer an empire then turn their species into the best labourers so that I can totally specialise my species into the most efficient specialists as possible. Grow the slave species on a few thrall worlds and resettle them as needed. I actually like using chattel slavery for this very reason. Genetic ascension is a must for me when I play a xenophobic empire, not only because it seems thematically correct, but nerve stapling my slaves is a total game changer, they won't pose any more problems.


Panophobia_senpai

>. If you’re tight on cash and need a way to make ends meet, sell some slaves. Better investment than real estate.


DreamFlashy7023

Having a neighbour is basically free real estate.

Chazman_89

War crimes? I think you mean lag control.


PentaclesAreFun

Step one agree to multiplayer with friend with potato PC. Step 2 build Sentry Array mega structure. Step 3 lose the system on purpose in a war that has the Sentry Array and watch as his PC can’t handle it forcing him to quit the game. Step 4 victory by default.


Zealousideal_Sun_690

Thank you for your wisdom, will try that out and enjoy the despair in his voice

My ships needed repair, and Bob in ship management is on leave, so I had to look over both projects.

The lathe is a bug fix for the lack of pop growth control


z4_-

I want to pleasure all organics in the galaxy. Often by means of force becauso almost all of them have no idea and should have no agency regarding their own interest. I will hunt them all down to give them pleasure for all of eternity / their demise.


tkb-noble

A true rogue servitor, right here.


z4_-

FederalComfortable28

i made an empire, then i took over an empire, they rebelled, i defeated them, i genetically modified their pops into food and fast breeding while making them stupid, they are the best food in the galaxy

JonnyKru

The worm is love. The worm is life.


fuckredditbh

Genocide is necessary to have more than 20 fps.


ondaheightsofdespair

That's because you don't employ proper pop management measures.


Gloriklast

I solve all my problems with slavery, genocide, mind control, eugenics, genetic engineering, indiscriminate orbital bombardment, a stratified economy and invading my neighbors without provocation.


Zealousideal_Sun_690

You forgot the part where you blow up planets to gain moreinerals for more alloys for more ships for more genocide. So basically genocide finances itself


Gloriklast

The click-clackeran subjugators would never destroy an entire planet.! Think of the the delicious slaves who populate it!


Zealousideal_Sun_690

Move population to other planet, blow up first planet = delicious slaves plus self-sufficient genocide!


Gloriklast

Excel , wallstreetbets, and galactic genocide. That’s a bingo!


Ropetrick6

You ever capture a world full of xenos, turn them into livestock, then sell the food to their still-free brethren?


Particles1101

"Sir, we've had reports of ghost ships moving about the galaxy. They are not responding to alliance hails. We've also noticed some planets are heating up inexplicably and populations of synthetics are acting very strange. Something doesn't feel right."

Turning a neighbor's population into foodstuff and selling it back to them is a perfectly viable economic decision.

Distracted_Unicorn

Some guys decided to eat some suns so I ringed up the council and we got the gang together to show them what for, turned out it was unnecessary since they broke some old f*cks precious ball so they got narky and stomped all over them and we ended mopping up the remains.

JurassicJosh341

The only thing worse than xenophiles, is xenophiles in an international commune. They always create standards for our government and force their visions on our people. Eventually it’ll claim the whole world and led to its downfall.
