Have you tried leaving a weaker fleet to bait them and then smash them with your main fleet?

@nic how’s xenocide simulator?

Fun as always

Wot sort of empire do you have right now?

This is something i did not expect

@McNukes why is it bluish?

I thought HRE was white in ck2

Using the HIP mod. Apparentlly there's a chance for a french-flavored HRE to spawn

and it's french?

wow

Ikr, the developers put a lot of cool shit in this mod

>french being dominated
my dream

what game is this ^

crusaders king 2

If you form the empire in the hip mod while your main title is the kingdom of France, the empire becomes blue and is instead called Saint-Empire Romain. If you form it with Germany it becomes Heiliges Römisches Reich, with the color from the base game. Not sure if there are other possible names.

It's formed via decision, so it might be locked to German or Frankish cultures.

it's hard going back to vanilla when you've played HIP

nuke the mainland

So tried out Space Engineers again for the first time in three years

Took me four hours to find an asteroid with fucking cobalt on it

@#$%@#$@#$

So it's more realistic now?

nfi

can't say I've had any experience mining cobalt in a far-flung galaxy

it's certainly more difficult

you have to monitor your oxygen and suit power levels

even jumping into a ship doesn't gaurantee replenishment of oxygen if your ship isn't pressurised

Can it be automated?

um

which bit

I haven't managed to get very far, so if you're asking if the suit can auto-power and replenish oxygen, then I have nfi

you can, however, take oxygen tanks to extend your o2 supply

That's one of the things I hate about most mine-craft-build games. I build myself a fucking fortress, yet I have to go down and grab pieces of ore by hand because I somehow can't figure out how to create mining robots.

and hydrogen tanks to extend jetpack usage

well, there does appear to be some sort of drone thing

I've barely scratched the surface though

In 2015 I was using the Lone Survivor scenario and that's what I'm using this time around

So basically I have to start everything from scratch

This annoys me in (modded) Factorio; near the endgame, I do nothing but go around building new mines because the previous one dried up already.

mm

personally I enjoy the mining side of things
