cultists or broken lords

i played broken lords first time. as you begin to steamroll people you can make your cities fucking huge just by buying your population with dust and expanding. and with cultists your city can be a glorious sanctuary in a sea of heathens (they only have 1 city)

>>386359408
Cities grow with dust? But growth increases dust production too... I see how that might make it easy. I'll try Cultists, haven't played them yet.

>>386358907
Broken Lords or Wild Walkers. Wild Walkers are the most normal race with barely any gimmicks, good economy, influence and units. Broken Lords start slow but become overpowered in the end game. Their problem is that you don't need food, and by learning to play this game via playing them you might develop some habits that could ruin other playthroughs. Vaulters are also be good to start with.

>>386360651
My last run was with Forgotten, which was interesting. Having no science output and needing money to research really changes your empire building.

Allayi is the true master race
Sell the world map for good price

>>386358907
cultist master race here kill all endless worshipers

>>386358907
Don't tart with Dosh Lords, they'll ruin every other faction for you.

Vaulters if you like research, Cultist to enjoy being the head of a legion of fanatics

Fucking THIS

>>386358907
I believe that you can make your own choice after reading their descriptions.

You can do it!

Reminder that Endless series has SO MUCH FUCKING GOOD MUSIC

>>386364494
EL and ES2 are by far the best 4X games if you car about story and quests which, admittedly, would be a niche audience for 4X genre which is more about player freedom how they go about things.

>>386364653
EL really dropped the ball on that by giving every race the same final quest ending.

>>386364494
Endless space 1 has soporific music.
It is not that I hate it, but it all is literally the opposite of exciting.
>war?
>take a nap
Man, GalCiv2 had some great music design, changed according to what was happening.
If you were losing the war it became opressive and dark, etc.

GalCiv2 is in general an outstanding game that just happens to be on the bland side. Expansions also neutered the AI for some reason and you need to mod it back in. I really need to check out GalCiv3 as well, but fuck them for selling races as DLC when they were in previous games.

>>386359175

How are these new three factions? Worth coming back to? Also play Cultists. Your region will look dope in the late game.

>>386365023
GalCiv3 is just kinda mediocre. I haven't played GalCiv2 in over a decade so I can't say whether it improved on that or not, but compared to every other space 4x out there now I found GalCiv3 to be really bland and forgettable, although the AI was better than most of the other games which was nice.

I've only played Forgotten so far, strength is spying but weakness is they gain zero science resource, and have to buy tech with gold or steal it by spying. Pretty interesting.

dosh lords or wood elves

>no one ever plays as dragons or mages

>>386365573
Forgotten are weak, possibly the weakest faction, despite some good faction/faction quest reward techs. If you want espionage, just play another faction and snatch up as many Forgotten heroes from the market as you can.

Allayi are weird, I get the feeling they're supposed to go tall instead of wide, but the new resource (Pearls) you need for their burrows always gimp my city expanding efforts, unless I'm playing on some of the largest maps and stealing all the Pearls on it. I found their units pretty strong though.

The Morgawr kinda function as you'd imagine, weak on land without minor faction units and a menace on the seas.

I actually don't like how finite and relatively short EL is because I prefer my 4X games to go on.

Should be good right? What happens if you don't start near water, can you never build ships?

>>386368371
Yep, you're fucked on the navy front as Cultists then.
