Yess fuck them size 10 planets, I don't want it, and the icon for habitable planets inside my territory is also really annoying. Technically by the time you have a Colossi, isn't your empire on the way to a Type II civilization? It would also make things way more interesting in terms of narrative if you had, for example, two mutual rivals committing all sorts of unspeakable war crimes against each other in the spirit of retaliation. But if you could do that, there are probably much more creative ways to deploy it! The most practical and controllable method seems to be through D-T or D-D fusion in a linear accelerator which is a reaction that produces plenty of neutrons (and why economical fusion power is actually more problematic than it sounds), but that's like the difference between producing a few micrograms of antimatter and enough to catalyze a nuclear explosion rocket. All four super weapons -- the globe-destroying planet-cracker, the neutron sweep that kills all organic life, the impenetrable shield that cuts a planet from the galaxy forever, and the Spiritualist exclusive conversion beam -- take roughly the same time to charge and fire, requiring a few months to neutralise a planet or superstructure. I’d also like the shielded world and planet cracker to perhaps give a bit more? Updated version check for 2.2.2. If you have a related Youtube channel, enter the URL. Might even be molten. I mean, certainly not actually at it, given the sheer might an ACTUAL Type II would have (heck, I don't think even Fallen Empires are Type II's), but you've gone far past the Type I category by now... As soon as you have a Dyson Sphere, you are a type 2. Then their everything else. Not in the same sense that a magical psionic converter or energy shielder isn't realistic, but in that we basically already know what bombarding a target with unimaginable amounts of neutrons would actually do. Thanks!! If I want to wipe out an empire completely, I lock a region of space down, bring it in, and go from world to world while keeping the war going as long as possible. Their purpose is denying your enemy the use of planets in areas of space that you yourself don't want. So you can imagine what happened, I’d take the odd world with an army if I wanted some more slaves for nerve stapling, otherwise, sweep everything, leaving a pristine paradise, fully developed buildings (granted had to redevelop a lot of it due to AI placing crap) that I could colonise soon after – sometimes I would literally have the colony ship waiting to land…, I’ve used the shield once on a devouring swarm, for the achievement and because I didn’t like their stupid squid faces (they kept insulting me ☹) and I have planet cracked the capital world of another empire because quite frankly they annoyed me one too many times (both were planets I was never going to bother occupying either) – both of those seem more like some movie-esque supervillain weapon, that doesn’t seem particularly useful or efficient but is more there for dramatic effect…(they have their uses taking out fringe planets I suppose that are of no interest). Please see the. Half the factions will begin to hate you if you make it a habit, and it lowers your trust rating. On or about stardate 4202.1 the Constellation, under the command of Commodore Decker, encountered massive destruction in system L-370 – all seven planets had been utterly destroyed.

I assume you have to be really thorough, however. Hubble looked farther than has ever successfully been searched before for extrasolar planets. This makes a lot of sense. It should still work @ma1201 or did you actually find it doesn't work anymore if you activate it? The current temporary -30% habitability malus doesn't really cut it; by the time you're able to build a Colossus, that's already offset by techs and/or gene modding.

But by the time that you can build a colossus you'll probably have so many habitability boosting techs, buildings, and resources that you wouldn't really notice. :/, time to wipe out the xeno scum out of MY galaxy. I haven't had the chance to use it against a machine empire specifically though, and I wouldn't even bother because you can already disassemble/purge Hive Mind pops with just occupation. Several flavors of planet killers are present: World Crackers , Neutron Sweep , Divine Enforcer , and Nanobot diffuser . Secondly, it's much more scientifically implausible to create an impenetrable shielded world. My current game is a tomb world-start determined exterminator that will only settle on tomb worlds. It duplicated and plunged the Federation into a conflict known as the … When launched it would result in an explosion hot enough to ignite the atmosphere, thus destroying the surface of the earth.

Committing atrocities has pretty substantial diplomatic consequences. Lastly, it's like arguing about where the mineral deposits on ringworlds come from or why dyson spheres don't generate several orders of magnitude more power than a system with multiple habitat stacked size 25 gaia worlds.

Insieme al protone, il neutrone costituisce il nucleo atomico. Enjoy the game! That would leave the planet clean but fry everything in pretty much the same way. For me, smashing or shielding a world seems kind of useless because I might want it later. Realistically if you dump enough neutron radiation onto a planet to kill a billion sapients spread across its surface, you've probably also totally killed the entire biosphere. Hey guys so I just checked and it works for me so if you are having any problems it's probably other mods you have that are causing them.

In order to get neutron flux to the scale of a planet-killer, you would need absurd amounts of deuterium, tritium, and spare energy, then be able to store and deploy it on a single massive ship. Planet crackers are actually somewhat easy: conceptually all you have to do is deposit enough energy to randomize an entire planet, thereby acquiring the solar system. The effects of the sweeper should be: -30% habitability modifier for 7200 days (similar to terraforming to Gaia World) without ability to terraform until said modifier expires, non-trivial chance of turning the planet into a Toxic or Molten World, or adding a permanent debuff (i.e. I'm no expert on planet destroyers, but it seems like the strongest use for any of them is being used on shielded fortress worlds with FTL inhibitors blocking you. The planet bonanza was uncovered during a Hubble survey called the Sagittarius Window Eclipsing Extrasolar Planet Search (SWEEPS). But then I’d also like a bioweapon style colossus of sorts that perhaps let me gene edit the pops on a planet so I can give them space herpes or something…Perhaps I need to stop playing for a bit I think.
