Voxxian Culture is, at this point, pretty much disjointed, disorganized, and traumatized. Being able to adopt a culture that stood up to Orks, calamity, and is proud of their past (unlike Voxx, as they are pretty much just "the people planet"), so adopting traditions and culture that arent' what their culture is, is an enticing project for many.
So from the QM's own words it looks like Voxxian culture is something that it's own people don't want to keep...which is certainly something because it's kind of an aberration from the common cultural erasure...not sure how to feel about this
Hmm, bad vibes you say. Let's look at the text.
They're still under invasion from the orks, but the Orks don't have a fleet behind. We could turn around and leave (which is what your plan does), and then they'll struggle against the orks for generations, while other worlds become fully orkish. Even the ones we did save will fall back to old patterns, infighting eternally.
PRIASE THE SUN MUSHROOM FUCKERS!!!
And the Star-Child blocks him from making a getaway.
Sounds about what I'm thinking.
We could use a free action to redirect our Diplomacy Corp to there.
I mean, that's what I thought was likely to happen when we got them settled on other worlds that had a prominent culture due to the QM's aforementioned reasons. The only Worlds I foresee keeping some semblance of Voxx culture would be the Terraformed Worlds like Howling Gale.
Could I ask you to tone down the swearing please? I disagree with your vibe interpretation here. Apologies if I didn't couch it well, but I get a different sense of this. These people were not well off before the Waagh, they were worse afterwards, then we saved them, now we have the chance to intervene before things return to status quo.
Is Lebensraum us deepcleaning the Ork remainders away and offering the (barely-alive to completely depopulated-by-orks) world "saw how we kicked the orks teeth in? You can join us, we'll be building you up to our standards of living and will make sure that anything that wants to hurt you has to go through our navy" or is it "So, you either join us voluntarily or we confuse you for an ork"?
Depending on how Lebensraum action works, agreed on the rancid.
I mean, the vibe is pretty clear and obvious?
Anyone know what's up with the morse in the update, btw?
The Action is for integrating the worlds instead of murdering the Orks and fucking off afterwards. A two-in-one kind of deal. Yeah, you are clearing out the Orks, but you are also diplomancing the people to join you with [LIST OF BENEFISTS].The Laurent said:
The first, but with a rather blatant "or you can wait until the Ashan Families arrive to gobble you up instead of us, and, oh, by the way, they have slavery laws active while we don't. We have minimum wage, healthcare, and advanced technologies we freely share" deal going on.
Keeping the lines in the middle, instead of all thrown everywhere.
I get the feeling that there isn't much of a Voxxian culture at this point. I don't think they'd be abandoning it for their own culture, but rather forming something new and unique based on their history of turmoil, their new home, and the new and present challenges. See:
Fair enough, the text of the action seems to be implying that it wouldn't happen without it. In either case probably won't be leaving greenskin forces behind, though, though if we don't settle all of the empty planets left behind then something unfriendly is likely to move in, be that greenskins coming from fungus or just humans set on re-populating the sector and re-establishing the constant warfare that was present up until this point.
That's just wrong tho? I said that Voxxian culture, what little has survived literal centuries of warfare, refugee living situations, religious meddling, revolutionary preaching, and Federation/Duchy fuckery, is going to survive via syncretized nature.
And they'll grow on the planets where they aren't meeting people with a strong, unified, and proud history. The planets you literally created from nothing, gave life from nothing, for them to grow on, live on, create new cultures on. Those planets will have all that, and more.
But it's really not going by the wayside! They've already formed new cultures in the Abyssal eye, with the motto "Under Dark Skies We Flower," as well as on Voxx Secundus, Node17c, and every other world being terraformed, as well as our space stations! And every one will be different, and a different reflection of the horror that was Voxx Primus.
