about the great khan

[TheRealRemus]

How do I beat him?
Obviously by killing him in battle, but this is nearly imposible it seems.

In my first game I got utterly beaten by him and surrendered.
In my seccond game where I met him It was fairly midgame I had around 60K to face him, his first fleet was no match, but then his literally unlimited suply of ships forced me to surrender, again!

Now in my 3rd game I was litterally destroying the 2nd starbase of the marauders when he spawend (how unlucky can one be?!), I quickly retreated my 30k fleet and instantly surrenerd when I saw his ~40 k fleet spawn (not counting all the starbases).

What is this madness?

On top of that he gains I believe 30 k fleet for free for each subjugated nation, now gues what... I had 1 OPM protectorat I enlighted and a 2nd vassal.
Both now got a 10k fleet in their katial system and the khan got his 20k Auxilaryfleet from me, my (ex-)vassal and (ex-)protectorat.

Its insane how much the khan gets only because he is the khan. He even flew though MY L-gate I just researched, and he uses wormhole portals, which I thought only is possible when the player has researched it?

If it werent for the insane amount of Auxilariesfleets who can teleport though space time I probably could beat his army and kill him, but I dont think I will try it because I know that all his other units will distroy all of my systems they enter....

Besides is there a way to see where the khan is right now?
And what is your opinion of the great khan

PS.: If roughly counting his numbers he has more than 120k fleetpower while I have 50k now that my 2nd titan is ready, I could hold more but thanks to the tribute I have to pay I cant

Destroying marauder habits can cause an immediate trigger of the great Khan, you are basically killing a good chunk of their population after all.

He even flew though MY L-gate I just researched, and he uses wormhole portals, which I thought only is possible when the player has researched it?

L gates are open to everyone when opened and why shouldn't they be able to use wormhole? They have been in space for a long time after all.

I mean why are you even fighting them? Surrendering to the great khan is actually a great thing to do, don't even bother fighting if they are near your border, just surrender and they will beat up everyone around you, they also recently changed it so you can still build outposts when a vassal of them, you can swoop in behind their fleets and claim the territory they clear for yourself, then when they inevitably die chances are they will splinter or if not you are in a better position to fight for independence as they don't get any more event fleets.
