Stellaris Cannon

[Barron of Gondor]

So, I don't know if I lean one way or the other in making campaign with Cannon Empires. However, I do think, with all the glorious trailers and flavor filled premade empires, there needs to be a Stellaris Cannon. Maybe a novel, or partner up with a separate company (cough cough CDPR) and license an action-narrative heavy RPG; based in a canonized stellaris universe.

IDK, I think a novel at least is just.

There Stellaris: Infinite Frontiers but it has mixed reviews on Goodreads and worse on Steam.

There already is a Stellaris Cannon. It's called the Giga Cannon.

ARR! DID SOMEONE SAY CANNONS!

Come on you young
Spacefarers listen to me!
I'll sing you a song
Of our fish in the sea!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

Up comes the Great Dragon!
In search of our home!
Through space to a place
That's beneath waves and foam!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

Come the solar winds
Taking us far!
All though the space lanes
And out to the stars!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

'Up comes the Tiyanki
The king of deep space!
Racing our ships
In a hyperspace chase!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

Up comes Leviathan
Tentacles grasp!
Choking our ship
As we shiver and gasp!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

'Up come the Lithoids
All hewn from their stone!
These boulders are bolder
When they're not alone!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

'Up come swarms of robots
Get ready to run!
Fight one, ten, a dozen,
1101!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

'We rose from the ocean
And reached for the sky
We're building an empire
That never will die!

And it's windy weather, boys! stormy weather, boys!
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys!
Blow ye winds fringeward, blow ye winds blow!
Out to the galaxy, Steady she goes!

Personally, I don't use cannon empires.

I use missile empires.

Uh, totally forgot about that. – Speaking on “Forgot,” what happened to the Stellaris spin-off game with a story focus?
Ghost Signal: A Stellaris Game

Oof ok.

Interestingly enough, it was a while until they really implemented stormy and windy weather.
