Exodus of the Hollow Suns - Discussion Thread
« on: July 17, 2025, 08:49:07 PM »
Comments, questions, and thoughts over my latest attempt to merge politics and Aurora in Exodus of the Hollow Suns.

So feel free to participate below.

:)

Just a quick overview over the setup highlighting only modified values from standard
  • 86399 Cycle
  • Survey 25
  • Minor % of New NPRs 25
  • Limited Research Administration
  • Precursors
  • Star Swarm - after 80 systems
  • Raiders - after 40 Systems
I am starting from scratch on conventional to allow for the political landscape to build up organically in the first few years that should pass by quickly with the following:
  • 2 Billion Population
  • 30 research Facilities
  • 5 Ground Forces Complexes
  • 100 Conventional Industry
  • 100 Maintenance Facilities
  • 10 DTS
  • 2 Military Academy
  • 1 Naval Headquarter
  • 1 Sector Command (without Improved Command and Control research)
  • 1 Spaceport
To fit the narrative Ruins were created and edited in quantities over the following bodies
  • Earth
  • Luna
  • Mars
  • Mercury
  • Io
  • Europa
  • Ganymede
  • Callisto
  • Titan
Based on the same concept, the following bodies have existing terraforming for habitability, however dangerous gasses have been added to their atmo keeping 2.00 colony costs. Since the gasses will keep water on liquid levels, no greenhouses have been added to level temperature, so the terraforming process will have to follow removal of dangerous gasses first and then temperature adjustment.
  • Luna
  • Mars

You should put in more differences of tone and language when the representatives speak. They now 'sound' like the same person.

I'll put some thoughts into it, perhaps ask good ol gpt to give me examples.
