2s stellaris a paradox grand strategy game
6s which allows you to explore the universe
8s discover ancient wonders and make allies
11s or enemies through diplomacy and war
16s [Music]
19s our six players are continuing their
21s quest of expanding their empires
23s scheming for power with the ultimate
25s goal supremacy
29s [Music]
37s when we last saw totally not robots they
41s were just being attacked by an enormous
42s Leviathan I'm getting attacked by a
46s third rake right now which I obviously
48s cannot beat so I'm going to move away
51s from it all right let's run away as far
55s away from the drink as possible I'm
58s pretty sure everything here will get
60s destroyed by the Drake if I engage it
63s with my fleet my fleet will get
64s destroyed pretty much instantly that's
67s safe to assume that's exactly what's
68s going to happen the ether Drake is part
71s of an extremely powerful and hostile
73s group of leviathans found throughout the
75s galaxy leviathans have an immense amount
78s of health and damage and should not be
80s underestimated however if a player is
83s successful in slaying a Leviathan
85s they will get a lot of different bonuses
88s in normal circumstances ether Drake's
91s can't jump between star systems however
93s a spec has used a few tricks to make it
96s a bit more challenging for our players
99s if it attacks the main Starbase then I
102s will loss the star base quite obviously
108s Martha's ear has retreated and the
110s Leviathan poses no immediate threat for
113s the moment but the damage done is
115s substantial and he's lost several star
117s systems our players are slowly expanding
123s out into the universe in the north we
126s have the technobabble Empire and totally
128s not robots in the South we have the
131s Galactic Dominion and pink wheat divine
133s order and in the West we have the squid
135s folk collective and space geckos and
140s while most empires are unaware of their
143s nearby neighbors two of our players are
145s just about to have a surprise oh gods
150s annex a Alex oh oh my god oh my god we
163s are so close to each other that's bad
166s oh dear this changes everything ah okay
172s I have a neighbor very close to me
179s oh dear
187s I wasn't expecting contact so soon so
190s that's a little bit disconcerting okay
195s good good we've got our non-aggression
196s pact of Jay where's contact yeah yeah
200s yeah you know they were disgusting well
202s I wrote a list right yeah yeah yeah fun
204s ah let's play the game I'll leave him be
216s for now but I'm definitely going to get
219s as much territory here and block him off
221s for expansion as quick as I can
224s so where's my construction ship here we
227s go so I have to block him yeah I think
229s yes because he will take this business
233s and I will block you beam well I prefer
235s to working here what both Jay and Alex
237s are trying to do is expand their borders
239s right next to each other so while
241s stopping your opponent from expanding
243s further you snatch valuable resources
245s from right under their nose so I need to
248s break him at first maybe I don't think I
251s think you actually know 39 you can have
257s that in a few months
258s yeah and it's energy as well yeah yeah
262s it's like the biggest middle finger you
264s can watch you can make enemy hilarious
267s yeah I don't think he will like that Jay
271s and Alex's border war escalates the
273s space geckos have still only found more
275s orders and have yet to find another
277s player wonder where the others are all
280s playing cuz there's five other players
281s six of us in total I wonder where they
284s are dotted around the galaxy let's hope
286s they're friendly
288s [Music]
294s we've claimed this region oh here we go
296s Oh natural wormhole space geckos what
302s the main problem he has is he's wedged
304s in between tomb raider factions there is
306s Raiders up here specifically over here
309s with someone of their exit points Ln is
312s another set of Raiders down to their
314s south they won't be able to get past
317s those until passed the myth games well
320s they have one out and that is through
322s this wormhole right here the real
326s question is where does a wormhole lead
327s and can you expand over there the
329s wormhole is that go anywhere so maybe we
333s want to build up a bit of a space base
335s around that last episode the
338s technobabble Empire and totally not
340s robots made first contact but their
342s relationship has been lukewarm at best
345s after the disastrous run-in with the
347s Leviathan marbles ear decides to look
349s for help and he doesn't seem to have
351s much choice other than to turn to gaming
353s FTL hello a good neighbor hello yes we
359s do why have you called me here since we
362s have been so friendly all this time
365s there's a new threat which you might or
367s might not be aware of I I'm talking
371s about the Leviathan which has awakened
373s very close to our shared border I
377s haven't looked at that I'll be honest
380s it's currently heading in your general
382s direction before my territory oh cool so
384s I have a proposition we kill the
387s Leviathan that sounds like fun
390s do we have big enough fleets though
392s whether we like it or not it will attack
395s us it's already attacking me it's just a
397s matter of time before he stalks you so
400s we stand a better chance if we fight it
402s together this sounds like a problem that
405s you need my help with and I might be
409s running a little low on minerals right
410s now so if we could you know a little
412s incentive
414s yeah it's really beneficial trade
417s absolutely
418s okay that sounds like a deal to me we
421s have a deal them much less scared than I
423s was at the beginning of this apparently
425s they think they are ready for it they
428s are it not at all their planets will
431s burn he's actually sending me minerals
434s which I love
436s that's plenty of minerals to help me
439s build a couple more biting vehicles
441s which I think we're gonna need if we
444s battle of an above and don't even know
447s how big and powerful those things are
450s now the question is do I turn up cuz
456s I've got the minerals and I don't have
463s to set my fleet there I'm kind of
465s tempted I'm kind of tempted to just
468s abandon him a speck heads over to Alex
473s to see how the non-aggression pact with
474s Jay is progressing but alex is just
476s about to get some bad news
479s that's contacting yes we have it on
482s aggression pact all these books me the
485s little get okay well that's that's
491s that's insulting he's taken control of
492s my black hole of your black hole
495s yes he's taking control of it he's loud
501s he's not allowed near me anymore because
504s cruel aggression here oh dear he's that
507s is unwarranted expansion to Walter
513s while Lionheart x10 is getting ready to
516s use his wormhole Tech he's forgetting
518s about one crucial thing a wormhole has
521s two entry points
522s what if someone would come from the
524s other side okay
527s got a wormhole I've never used a
531s wormhole before so I guess we can
533s explore it see where we wind up this
537s this is good this is good this opens up
539s parts of the galaxy to me because I can
540s jump with my own territory over here and
542s then go wherever I want to go that
558s absolutely works where do you go there
564s are these guys oh oh they came out of
569s the wormhole the squid folk collective
571s space friends oh that's the face that
575s only a squid could love great space
577s geckos lizard people but we are very
583s friendly towards other folks oh we wish
586s me nothing but friends with the squid
588s folk you know what let's greet them
589s how's it going space friends where are
592s you oh that's a large M hello space
596s squids
597s [Music]
598s okay new Empire it's technically just on
603s my border we probably want to go say hi
606s hello space friend
616s I represent the PR department of the
618s squid folk collective I was gonna say
620s you don't quite look like the chap I
622s have on the video feed there yeah it's
624s big lack of the squid face was Dave Dave
627s basically we wanted to kind of sit down
629s and you know say hello before agreeing
631s blindly to something you seem like the
633s kind of person that would kind of be
635s keen to be friends hello hello we're
638s neighbors I can't help but notice you
640s seem to have some raiders just south of
642s you yeah I met them a while ago they've
645s recently met me as well with quite a
649s large fleet heard a lot many many geckos
652s have gone yeah I had some Raiders just
654s north of me who did something similar
656s they kind of came in took like two of my
658s systems and then wanted money protection
660s money I've been giving them food I have
662s a proposition number one
664s non aggression number two work together
667s take out the Raiders number three
669s doesn't matter number four profit number
673s three be a research agreement number
675s three is a research agreement that works
677s we'll take out the Raiders do we have an
680s agreement
684s [Music]
686s totally not robots has patiently been
689s waiting for the technobabble empire to
691s come and help defend against the overly
692s powerful Leviathan when suddenly it's on
695s the move again so we are about to get
699s attacked by the ether Drake
701s I sent my neighbors some minerals in
704s exchange for help with that but he's not
706s coming so I might be betraying mob is
709s there I'm gonna I'm gonna watch and see
712s what happens
713s I'm just I'm just gonna watch I don't
715s even know where this device and inside I
717s can't see it no my problem yet he's
724s counting on my flavor getting destroyed
725s so I figured I will just move out with
729s my fleet unless he decides to honor our
730s agreement and I'm going to keep my fleet
734s away does didja no idea right now since
738s I can't afford to lose both the station
740s and my fleet at the same time
742s well that's 100% guaranteed to happen
744s yep that it is it's something much of an
748s effect right oh it's actually jumping
750s okay a spec has a nasty surprise for
754s gaming FGL who won't be doubting the
756s Leviathans existence for too much longer
760s [Music]
767s [Music]
769s Oh Oh he was an ether Drake oh he wasn't
773s joking
774s is that it Emily's a jumpring okay well
778s that's what he gets for not joining in
780s no it's coming my way now why why why
784s why why I need that I need that system
788s it's got prime rib in it a my my end up
791s chargrilled by this space dragon
793s crap what's it doing
796s what's the doing I can't fight that
798s thing with my plate
799s oh it's shooting myself if he comes to
802s me now asking for it sweetie I will most
805s likely request my minerals but let's
809s just pretend that I never doubted him
812s he'll he'll not know I'm not ask
814s trusting anymore it does for sure why
817s would I be he did not honor his
819s agreement after he got minerals from me
820s this is gonna end
822s terribly it's gonna destroy it's gonna
827s destroy my thing why did that come from
834s that was a giant dragon beam thing oh no

902s word of the Penguins I'm still happy to
