Vasari Loyalist bug with Capitals victory condition

[Special Rito]

I just noticed that in games where I've set losing capital planets as the defeat condition that the Vasari Loyalist faction bugs out. I'm aware of their ability to shift their capital to their Titan, but in my last two games where I've been playing both as and against Vasari Loyalists they don't lose even if both their capital planet and Titan is defeated.

In both occasions the capital planet was lost first and the titan second so I'm not sure if it has something to do with the bug.

If you have the save game,play it again and try and scout their other worlds to see if they still have a titan factory,if they do that's probably why their are not defeated yet.

The Vasari Loyalist ability is actually more powerful than you think. To fully defeat them you must kill their capital (or all planets if capital victory isn't on), their titan AS WELL as every capitalship and starbase they own. :-/

If you're playing against the AI they almost always surrender on their own before this happens, but you can't really control when. If you really don't like this the flagship victory mode actually acts like a similar condition but the Vasari Loyalists aren't immune to it.
