Now just recently I tagged a fallen empire because...reasons, and I got curious, and wanted to find out if the fallen empire ship designs were actually available in the ship designer for said fallen empire. Turns out the weren't, but when I noticed I could create a ship design, sort of. None of the other ship types were designable, but the titan design showed up, but without the actual ship components to them. When I tried to add them, this is what I got.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT MONSTROSITY!?

Its a literal hybrid between a fallen empire titan design and a mammalian titan design. Sadly, I couldn't spawn it into the game because the saved design didn't show up on the construction menu, but still, in the ship designer, this looks really weird.

It's my understanding that FE/AE Titans are technically a different class of ship than those the player get anyway. Their beam weapons are identical in terms of base stats, but FE Titans get more slots to put things on... and, I think, no aura. They're strong enough on their own to not really need one, whereas Player Titans are more of a support ship.
Even when you've long surpassed them, they technically still have the better stuff. Now imagine a FE Titan in the hands of a player with several centuries' worth of repeatables... :eek:

Sometimes I have pretty good luck in my games. Other times the RNG places the Trappist system--with three habitable planets, all of which are colonizable for me since I'm playing a Machine Empire--next to the Xenophobe FE.

On the bright side you at least don't have to worry about any rival empires stealing your system.

Got lucky with a Winking anomaly and my new record was born. 11 habitats and 17 planets. 6 are above size 25. This is true Covfefe.

Everyone knows about planets popping up as the game is progressing, but did you knew habitats are the new thing?

We put a spaceship in your spaceship so you can fly in spaceship while you fly in spaceship.
