I support the Economic path. Really, we don't have any justification for staying Green after the multiple acts of genocide. It's time to nosedive into Blue and get ready for our Red Galactic Crusade.

We didn't exterminate them, we just enslaved them. I think a Gorvask was doodling in the textbook, going by the stick figure. Anyway, as I said earlier, the Green path through Civ is actually far more aggressive than the Blue path.

Green path is waging holy war and forcibly converting other cities to your religion. Seriously.

I still support Blue, though, since it matches our slyness.

Then where have they gone? Are the slaves all wearing stealth camouflage?

No, see, because it's done in the name of [deity] it's alright and morally just no matter what we do.

I could be a diety. I rent myself out for that.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I would have guessed it was more of a hobby, but I guess even horrors from beyond the veil of human ignorance need to make a living.

[Xantalos]

Hobby, rent, same thing really.

What exactly are all the lesser races anyway? We saw their color-coding in tribe stage, but what were they called?

Well, out of the five other tribes, one (the Gorvask) had their names displayed, while the others didn't reveal their names. I've assumed that other Lesser Races were added later, too.

Actually, only one or two genocides.
The rest were basically enslaved.

Technically we'll be Shamans even if we kill everyone on the planet with nukes.

In theory. In practice, no nuke access.

I don't think we have any Psi powers. Or the means to create an army of little grey clones.

Tau are n...oh, wrong Ethereals.

Hmm. Might you be interested in adding me to your buddies list? Maybe one of my crazy-ass things will show up during the space stage? It's EricBlank on the sporepedia.

I can't play spore right now because I don't have the keycode anymore so I can't install it, but I can still access my account. I've got 138 items I haven't updated since... January 2010... Huh.

Sorry to hear that.
Well, let's see if we can find anything. Who knows--a vehicle of yours might show up before we leave the planet!

The LP fluff is a bit divergent from what's actually happening. But you need to be trying to see the citizens, anyways.

But it's still not friendly in any way. We either kill everyone in the name of [Deity], forcibly convert everyone in the name of [Deity], or buy them out in the name of fun and profit (and possibly [Deity]). The Green path through civ is perfectly justifiable for those who just committed multiple genocides. However, we're not going down that path.

Don't be silly Hugo, showing people the light of [Deity] is a good thing! Sure there might be some resistance along the way, but it's ultimately all in the name of peace and faith. The heathens just don't know what they need, but we'll be good enough to show them Truth._{^{canyoutelliammockingthisideaandthegamedevelopersfornotthinkingitthrough}}

"The Crimson City offered a primitive version of our modern culture, from the scholar Maerkz Kapetal. Kapetalism was a force that made modern society possible. So Cupcake City made a simple choice: Assimilate the Crimson City as they would villages of Lesser Races. It is a decision that haunts us to this day. All things considered, it was probably best for the Crimsonians."

What shall we do?

SCRIBBLINGS




I DIDN'T DO IT
NO SERIOUSLY

[Neonivek]

Generally speaking the economic game is played as such

Armor is the only dump of the economic game as by bribing you can easily avoid combat with even the most hostile of factions. Get rid of all your religious vehicles and build nothing but your economic ones and focus on one city, bribing them until they let you trade, bribing other factions if they are hostile.

Of the three types the economic path is the easiest and fastest, it is more then possible (after a few tries) to complete this stage in less then a hour.

[WillowLuman]

Don't scrap all the religious ones yet! If you use them on an epic, it becomes converted.

[Eric Blank]

Wait, it will become one of your units? I don't recall that at all!

[WillowLuman]

It doesn't become one of your units, it just become passive to your units. Which can save some major expense of rebuilding.
