70-ish engines or reactors. 10 engines in the troop transports. this will be similar. So 5-ish should be plenty
We.csnt interrogate crew from boarded ships?
Can enemy used a jump tender we've placed?
Are we.shippijg in colonist for Harmony?
How many freighters do we have so far? The surrender plus the immobilized ones?
I presume there is no cargo -- that tends to disappear. Jettisoned?
That's the tech that makes civvies slow as molasses, ritut?I suppose if their fuel efficiency tech is better than ours, we'll at least get that from captured Creuse engines.
I thought they surrendered before losing the last man.They fight to the death. No prisoners.
The only way to get prisoners is to either pick up a life pod or conquer a colo
So we got the crew as prisoners I twkr?This was a spontaneous surrender... caused by shooting at them, not by boarding.
Any way to conquer it another tjmcargo, correct.
It’s also helpful to remind Wagon and me.when people discuss this stuff it's helpful if they explain terms we haven't seen in the thread before.
they had a reward system rewarding women getting 6 or more children.
Could we institute something similar
Yah even first births can be dangerous, and Wagon wants 6+ per woman on average!It is also somewhat more dangerous for the mother
We’re talking about treating human women like bunnies, though.intelligent bunnies
Things like artificial wombs!Nope, if anything, a 10% growth rate is incredible and not achievable without technological assistence, for humans. Think things like cloning.
…we’d have artificial wombs!Average 40 is not even unreasonable if half the children die in childbirth and everyone else lives to 80. Surely in an advanced society
Don't think so.is this advanced society misogynistic?![]()
If there are no useful components in their freighters, just blast them surely?
Also, I am in the xenocidal murderer group: they started it and killed our civilians, we should have no mercy with the evil murderous Xenos!
That's the tech that makes civvies slow as molasses, ritut? - No, that's the Power Reduction tech (the other end of the Power Augmentation scale).
I thought they surrendered before losing the last man. - During boarding? No. Casualties are 100%.
So we got the crew as prisoners I twkr? - Presumably. There was no Intel result, so we didn't cross a threshhold.
Any way to conquer it another tjm - The cargo? No. It's always lost AFAIK.
Rat-boogers!
The Creuse Freighters won't give us any tech at all.
None.
The drives they use are the same level as ours, Solid Core Anti-Matter.
This is certainly a valid viewpoint.
The Modrons wiped out 750,000 of our colonists, plus tens of thousands of ships' crew.
And would have done more, if left unopposed.
It's of course your choice. I would love to see an invasion...
The second enemy squadron of 10 Freighters has been stopped.
Recall that the first enemy squadron of 10 Freighters ended up as 5 wrecks and 5 immobilized.
This second squadron has ended up as 3 wrecks, 5 immobilized and 2 surrendered (struck their flags).
I intend to spend the next few years building up for a home-world invasion, yes.
Definitely think we should invade.s of course your choice. I would love to see an invasion but of course it's also a hassle.
Maybe the offensive terraform can be used as a compromise. We definitely want the installations.
Have we done any research in power reduction tech.
