lol, hardest thing for me in this game is remembering to go to war

[TrotBot]

Despite the mentionend Fanatic Purifier i never found a reason to go to war. In fact i find it annoying to do so, especially if there are so many options to come on top without a single shot. Vassalization and the Galactic Empire are the best examples here. At the end is 90% of the galaxy my Vassal and the rest at least part of the Empire. So i would say mission accomplished. Is there any reason to fight someone if they are your friends?

sure, but for my roleplay i want to liberation war the galaxy, or at least vassalize most and let passive influence shift them, then liberation war the slavers and xenophobes. but i just take too long to start either liberation warring or vassalization warring on my neighbours.

maybe i will just go cave dwellers again and spam armies from the start, and let the massive army that's doing nothing nudge me to do something since its presence would make the most painful part of a liberation war easy

The problem is one of goals.

If you want to create Utopia, it is easy to forget going to war.

But if you are on a galactic beautification quest, and those ugly Xenos keep getting in your face, you have to go to war, if is unavoidable.

Making Gaia worlds take a long time, you can clean up the trash in the meantime.
