![]() There is nothing unusual about the research outpost itself. Texts from other shrines should help us piece it all together. Not long after they had the ceiling, walls and floor imaged in a spiral pattern. Science Officer was about to call the mission a failure when, looking up as they irritably paced along the edges of the circular space, they realized that discrete lines of cohesive text were momentarily forming before their eyes, melting away only to be replaced by new lines. apparently considered physically separating the lacquer from the inlaid text, but realized that the strange glyphs would doubtlessly have been made misshapen to begin with, only to assume their proper shape when viewed correctly through the lens of the lacquer. Next, the crew of the attempted bombarding the lacquer with light of varying wavelengths and intensity, but no beneficial reactions were observed. Initial attempts at unscrambling the text, relying on the raw processing power of the 's computers to reconstruct the text from plain images, proved fruitless as it was simply too distorted to place in any known lingual family tree. They recognized early on that a text in some logographic script is inlaid in the walls, heavily distorted by the layers of translucent lacquer. Science Officer has reported back with the 's findings at the Percipient's shrine. Reward: Rock Brain Linguistics modifier added, giving the following effects: Codebreaking: +1 (Permanent Empire Modifier). Option 1: Is there anything we can do to help you? Option 4: Let us talk about something else. Option 3: Are we getting anything useful out of this? Option 2: How long have you been drifting in orbit of ‹planet›? Option 1: Do you understand that we are not you? Option 1: On second thought, this seems ill-advised.Ībort any attempts to contacting ‹astroid› directly, and study it from afar: +2 Physics, +2 Biology Update Note: Third Option: Lithoid Empire Gain 18x physics output (potential yield gain of 350 ~ 100000).Gain 12x energy output (potential yield gain of 150 ~ 2000).Ship leader gains the add carefree trait.The crystals are still valuable in their own right. 3.2 Old Gods: Shrine to the Benefactress.3.1 Old Gods: Approaching the Percipient.2.9 Old Gods: Approaching the Undaunted.2.8 Old Gods: Approaching the Benefactress.And pops are one of those things where more is always more(unless you supplement your workforce with robotic, but that brings other issues to deal with like AI rebellion). In old system it was a minor inconvinience as uncontrollable population boom was inevitable, but ever since how pop growth was tied to planet carrying capacity.well, let's just say pop-growth penalties are really gonna hurt now. And unfortunately low stability is a thing that feeds on itself, which is problem for Authoritarians and Xenophobes especially(one reason why AI players have so many uprisings in their hands).īut the bigger problem is -25% growth speed. Slug phobia is kinda problem if you don't have great stability and so dropping from 60 percent to 40 in all of your colonies really bite you. Although with the lasrge number of willing candidates, I don’t see why they’d force themselves upon anyone (except possibly in a similar situation to Ezra Dax in DS9, although that particular situation was consentual)Ĭurrently, it gives permanent pop growth penalty(Slug hosts get -25 percent growth penalty) and you also get -20 stability for 20 years as "Slug phobia", which I think Xenophiles are exempt(or at least I can't remember that I got any while playing UNE). It takes years for a Trill to be chosen as a host for a symbiont, and basically everyone in their society wants that honour. Unless i misremembered the brain slug's refuse a unwilling host. If all those things do not really apply to your species playthrough, maybe the brainslugs would end up be more of an obstacle then a blessing. If your pop growth is no problem, be it due to edict pushes, huge food boosts, great immigration waves or a heavy reliance on robots to do the ehavy lifting, you probably have no issue with the brainslugs. Which kinda was a nobrainer in 2.1 but with 2.2 and the new planetmanagement I would take a moment and reconsider if it is worth it. Originally posted by Red Dox:Have not seen them in a while, but if I remember right you get a kickass boost for science & unity, at the price of a huge decrease of pop growth.
