-UUUUCK YES!
(This post way overdue)
Alright, so here's what happened.
The arceans start slaughtering me. No real suprise there. The mass produced ships were torn to pieces, as they had lagged behind in military technology for quite some time. The "Oh God please work" held out remarkably well before finally biting the dust. The arceans took three of my border planets, which slowed down research a bit.
The production of the Oh God Please Work-class starship had pushed me into incredible debt, so research halted for some nail-biting weeks as I got out of debt. The tax rate was raised, causing me to lose my first election ever.
My military hadn't even made a dent in the Arceans. I was, in a word, screwed.
And then, pirates.
Space pirates.
They showed up as a random event in my space, and started attacking any and all ships with their overpowered fleet (238 mass driver damage?!?!). Because of the bravery of these space-hooligans, the arcean army attacking my empire was decimated. The Arceans withdrew, as they needed their ships to defend their worlds against the possibility of a Thalan attack.
Time ticked down.
Then the Thalans declared war on me. Joy.
Because of the way things had turned out in this game, the Thalans were pretty much America, and the Arceans were Soviet russia. Or maybe the other way around. I was an insanely rich, smart, large, and poorly defended country that bordered both of them.
Sucks to be me.
But, by the time the Thalans declared war on me, there were only ten weeks left before I ascended the mortal coil. They blew up a starbase, failed to invade one planet, and then it was all over.
The Torians, my loyal allies to the end, got all of my planets, money, and tech (aside from the home system). My people, for only throwing my party out of power once, got a 0% tax rate. I got a 100% approval rate. The Drath, for not attacking me, got all of my tech. The pirates got whatever the hell they damn well wanted.
The Thalans, Paolos, and Arceans, did get all of my tech. Even the overpowered military stuff that went into the production of the "Oh god please work".
They did not, however, get to become gods. Because when they got there..
I was waiting. And pissed.
Peace out.
