Rapid Fire Spacefaring Spider Empire
« on: December 19, 2016, 08:45:20 pm »

Lets see how long this lasts.  Total copy from Haspen's 'Rapid-Fire Minimalistic Dynasty Game!'.  Lots more starting options though.  Been playing some Stellaris so thought this might be a good idea.


You are the leader of a planet which has recently developed an FTL drive and unified under a world government.

Fill this out:

Leader Name:

Planet Name:
Planet Type: Terran, Toxic, Radioactive, Torrid, Frozen

Species Type: Plant, Fungus, Arthropod, Reptile, Mammalian
Species traits, choose 1-3: Adaptive, Dangerous, Fast Breeders, Communal, Long-lived, Talented, Smart, Hard-working

Civilization Traits, Choose 2: Technocratic, Spiritual, Cultured, Explorers, Peaceful, Militaristic, Welfare State, Industrious, Police State

Ok, i should wait more suggestions as i am a little bit sleepy to come with ideas of my own.

Love spiders and reptilian
A toxic or radiactive planet should give an weird/unique starting scenario

The adaptive/smart/long lived traits looks like a great combo, in the end of some ages of our dynasty we will have an old but fucking wise population giving aid to us. I would wanted the fast-breed trait so we could in the long run have plenty of recruit soldiers to get into war or conquer somewhere. But we could solve that later right? With some breeding/cloning technology.

I am going to leave this open for a bit to get more ideas or +1s to the options.

Like the ideas so far though!

(Roll 3) Leader Name: Cranic
(Roll 3) Planet Name: Ratric
(Roll 1) Planet Type: Radioactive
(Roll 1) Species Type: Arthropod(Spider)
Species traits (3 voted for 3 traits): Adaptive (2 votes), Fast Breeders (2 votes),  Hard-Working (2 votes)
Civilization Traits: Militaristic (2 votes), Industrious (2 votes)



Ever since the first group of Atricians crawled out of the wire-wood caves to hunt mutant beasts on the plains you have come far.  Mastering Animal Husbandry, Metallurgy, Karaoke and Zeppelins among other important technology.  Great fortress cities protected against the harsh elements of your homeworld and the constant warfare for the scarce herding grounds.  In time, the greatest cities turned to cooperation, forming trading guilds, then nation-states, and finally Mega-Corporations took control of the world, as is the natural order.

The competition now turns to more subtle means, with shadow wars raging between the different companies.  The masses of poor are used as fodder, or factory workers, while the wealthy sit at the top of a web of industry and espionage.

You are CEO Cranic, major owner of the largest Mega-Corporation with a monopoly on space travel and the various technologies they entail.  The Lane-Drive, a newly tested faster then light technology, will now allow you to expand the enterprise beyond a single solar system into the void.



Does this look good?

Year 1, leg 1 of the Space Age

You close the video conferencing system and your aide passes a data slate with a summary of what your vice presidents just went over. 

While the other corps fight each other they have accepted your rule and will put their mercenaries at your disposal.  Your fleet is well drilled and a vast and veteran army could be called up at any time.  Unfortunately the masses have no care for your rule and centuries of wealth concentration has seen society divide and industry stagnate.  While your own research labs are safe, the other major powers hoard knowledge and fight over it.

Unity 5
Economy 4
Technology 5
Military 7

Not great, but stable.

"We need to decide on a theme for the next board meeting, something to excite the shareholders." You decide.

A) To the stars!  Build a survey ship to explore.
B) Asteroid mining of course!  Build a deep space construction fleet.
C) We need to fix up our home world!  Focus on planetary problems.
D) I need a few good spiders.  Let's hire some skilled help.

Notes:  You got a 1 for Economy, industry and hard work already paying off.
