.....(version 3.9.2 no gamebreaking bugs in ~15 hours of multiplayer).....

That didn't age all that well.

That multiplayer game is still going despite some CTD bug related to some event which would crash depending on what the player choose. However on a different, single player run, I did have another event related CTD that crashed no matter what I did. However^2, upgrading to 3.10.4 fixed that and I had no problem continuing with that game to completion...So I guess 3.10.4 works on win7.

Next expansion is Machine Age. Including such wonders as individualistic machine empire start, mech cults, a couple of midgame megastructures, a new crisis, two portrait sets that'll alter as your species advances through cybernetic/synthetic ascension (Finally!), and more.

...Dammit, all of that sounds pretty exciting except the portraits.  and the portrais sound nice.

I'm pretty interested in the new DLC since all of that does sound really nice.  I've wanted an individualist robotic option forever, and I'm hoping the stuff about portraits will let me finally let my synthetics look like my species instead of beep boop I am a robot robots.

Also can't wait to find out how buggy it'll be.

'portraits that change as they robot'

roleplaying a 40kImperium-like space empire.
Still around the early game, year 2220

Expanding as fast as it could by building spacebases in every new systems its science ships surveyed, the Exterminator empire got in contact with alien civilizations as expected.
As a first contact, threats were made as usual and borders were closed.

Still expanding fast to avoid getting boxed in a corner of the universe, the Exterminator empire ran into another alien civ that told them to not settle in nearby systems, something to do with their "holy places" .
"Xeno scums" was the right and correct answer the Exterminator empire replied and immediately surveyed those systems, shprtly followed by construction ships building a starbase, to the outrage of those newly encountered aliens.

Aliens that didn't wait too long to send another message that was a declaration of war.
The Exterminator empire deployed his early game current fleet filled with its best corvettes for a total of 676 fleet power ready to meet and annihilate the "Avarrian Protectors" xenos incursion.

Meanwhile, I just learned a harsh lesson about the common ground origin that lets you start in a federation: if you submit to the Khan, you get booted out of the federation.

I guess I got 100 years of mileage out of my research federation so it wasn't wasted, but that really sucked since it was a level 5 federation with all of its perks.  I spent maybe 20 years as a subject, with its huge economic tax, and now that the Khan is dead and I'm free, I can't rejoin the federation because my former allies were very weak without me and are at war with someone else who jumped on them at the first opportunity.

I don't want to start a new federation this late in the game so I hope they survive and I get to rejoin, else that'll be a wasted tradition tree.
