Stellaris Warhammer 40K - Great Crusade Challenge

Рет қаралды 272,124

Жыл бұрын

Stellaris Galactic Paragons DLC has given us the Crusader civic and the Under One Rule Origin. This is the God-Emperor Origin in Stellaris. We will use these to recreate the Great Crusade from Warhammer 40K. Can we find all the primarchs? Can we unite the disparate factions of mankind? Can the Imperium of Man survive? Will the God-Emperor of Mankind end up on the golden throne?
Lets dive in and find out!

I hope paradox are listening. If they made a properly licensed and balanced "stellaris: warhammer 40,000" or horus heresy version, with all the names and events included, I would throw money at that. I'd happily even pay £40 for the effort. I've tried many mods, but they are either horrifically unbalanced or are so bloated that you can't get to midgame without everything grinding to a halt (the star trek mods did the same).

Slight point of order. Wrecked ships are not necessarily hulks, despite that English uses the word in this fashion. Hulks in 40k are specifically an amalgamation of many wrecks welded together by dropping in and out of the Warp. They are seldom if ever in static orbits in lore, either on insterstellar drift or hijacked and guided by Orks. Probably my favourite facet of the 40k 'verse, I once ran a RogueTrader campaign aboard one

Its looking like I might have to deal with my crisis soon and my three kain fleets might be able to hold the line for a while. Makes me very glad that I started the process of becoming the custodian already.

I do have some advice for people who wish to play this origin, as it is a very fun one. While your leader may be mortal, there are many ways to make him immortal. If you get to the final phase of any of the ascension paths (synthetic, psionic, etc), and about to pop up to meet your leader immortal, also giving you some nice bonuses. It’s a very fun thing and encourages you to explore the different ascension. I am currently doing this right now and I did synthetics.

Is there a particular reason that you used 1.65x logistic growth and 0.15x growth scaling? Those numbers just stood out to me in your campaign setup. I also see you used Grand Admiral Scaling Difficulty. I’d imagine some sort of scaling would make this Origin a lot more fun to play, given that your Luminary grows based on how much they are able to expand their empire (still trying to find a more detailed explanation of the mechanics of that process on the wiki). But on Grand Admiral without scaling, while I can do well pretty consistently, I often find I have to essentially turtle for the first few decades or so, which is precisely the time that I need to be expanding as much as possible if led by the Luminary.

The Emperor didn't hate aliens and even protected non-hostile/non-Chaotic xeno species that submitted. While he was certainly more focused on human supremacy, he wasn't xenophobic or genocidal towards xenos, so long as they never enslaved or harmed humans. I could see him accepting a xeno leader if he felt like the alien would be especially useful.
