Alright, alright. Let's get the ball rolling on our capstones. I can't believe we're finally here.

[X] Plan: Our Union Grows Stronger

[X] There Are Components Clearly Tainted!
[X] Keep Them As Is

I have convinced myself that depriving alectai of the chance to mess around with lamenter design is unfair. But at the same time. I feel that my core concepts are good enough that they dont need to be replaced. And that the two designs from other people in the form of the battleship and frigate are actually really interesting.

There is still 70DP that would be free to play with anyway. So even if alectai hates the current design paradigm (which was mostly iterative), he can make edits as he pleases!
 
[X] Plan: Our Union Grows Stronger

This is a pretty silly question, but with the current base trait allowing for "Odyssean" Warp Travel, would the No Evil upgraded trait allow for us to travel past the Storm of the Five-Fold Wing?

    • A Great Bell tolled once.

    A Great Bell tolled twice.

    A Great Bell tolled thrice.

    A Great Bell tolled four times.

    A Great Bell...stilled.    ​



    Choose One:
    (6-Hour Moratorium)
    [] Dominus Deus Omnium Nostrum
    "It is the duty of all faithful to aid those fallen, those unenlightened, those forgotten, those despised, and those yearning for meaning amidst the cosmos."
    (Pilgrim Fleets and Faith Orders will set out across the Sector in aid of the Federation and the Good Cause, billions of faithful bringing hope and deliverance to trillions who have never been given a chance to witness the dawn.)

    [] Non Nos Tollet
    This Temple Shall Not Wither And Die.
    (Achieve near 100% Rejuvenat distribution.)

    [] Memoria Manet In Aeternum
    Let None Be Forgotten, Let None Be Trapped In Biological Forms, Let Their Eternity Remain Untouched.
    (Full-Body Augmentations, Additions, and Replacements in all degrees become common, with all that such entails.)

    this is first, second is

    [] Dominus Deus Omnium Nostrum

    and it looks like the starchild is almost born folks!

    edited: now I'm wondering just how the void infrastructure and the civilian infrastructure are looking...are we at golden age of technology levels of civ and void development? because i want to get the lamenators a glorianna...one that has all our best shit on it because fuck chaos.

    I was very confused... why these were the options for Shipwright's Grove Unification... and then I realized that this was Civ XX. Well damn.

    These are good. Um. I think I'm currently leaning towards
    [] Dominus Deus Omnium Nostrum
    Though I admit that the other two are tempting as hell.

    I suppose the question is - @HeroCooky
    1. How well do these scale? Will they grow along with us as we absorb the Shipwrights & beyond.
    2. The first seems like a great way for the Federation to have an impact on the greater galaxy during the epilogue.
    3. We currently have merit-based juvenat distribution, and have for a very long time. If it stops being merit-based that seems like it'll change something fundamental about our society?
    4. Is the third option ([] Memoria Manet In Aeternum) also a kind of eternity? Or just more about unshackling from the physical form in terms of cybernetics, bodies, etc? I see the benefits in terms of individual freedoms but I'm struggling to see the broader advantages.

    Edit:
    I guess this choice is actually saying a lot about the values of the epilogue-based federation. If our aspiration for everybody to
    [] Dominus Deus Omnium Nostrum - help others
    [] Non Nos Tollet - Live forever, and enjoy life while they do it.
    [] Memoria Manet In Aeternum - enjoy absolute freedom in their own bodies.

    The more I think about it the more I'm actually not interested in Non nos Tollet, the Rejuvenat one. We don't want to become an eternal gerontocracy. We want to continue growing and changing and becoming more. But with Non Nos Tollet I could see us becoming essentially a Stellaris Fallen Empire. I don't want that.
