Faction Quest Victory?

[Machiavelli88]

I don't understand it. Am I supposed to get a victory screen or steam achievement after completing a faction quest? I've completed three of them now and the game keeps on going and only 'ends' with a time limit victory.

Yes, you certainly should get a victory after completing the wonder at the end of the main faction quest line.

This might be a daft question but have you turned off the Wonder Victory condition by accident, to be found in advanced game settings?

[Machiavelli88]

I don't think so as I've never entered the options menu before. By wonder do you mean the unique building that you build for each faction at the end of each quest; or the Endless Hub of Knowledge wonder thing which all the factions can build? If it's the previous kind, then yes I have completed a few of them...

The wonder victory building is called the Temple of the Earth's Core, 36K industry points, 40 mithrite & 40 hyperium to build.

If you've built that and havn't got a victory then something is wrong and if it's not the wonder victory being turned off I don't know what it might be. Hopefully someone else has some ideas in that case!

Ohhhh so you have to build that in order to win a victory? I see. I thought, at least in the case of the Wild Walkers, you just had to build the tower that your quest hero researched :)

[Jiks]

Glad that's solved :)

At least as the Wild Walkers you can build it in a reasonable time frame. Done it in one turn a few times.

On another note, you wouldn't happen to be a Twin Peaks fan, would you?

[Jiks]

All right thinking people are Twin Peaks fans :)

Watched it again recently and it's aged surprisingly well. Still utterly terrifying. Still hoping for the new series in 2016 too.

It's just that you have the same name as the male protagonist in the show :)

To get the Faction Quest Victory you need to complete the faction quests which open up the Wonder Building (wonder victory) and the final set of faction quests (Quest Victory). The first quest in the chain should be investigating the pillars of light that appear above the ruins. The victory condition is met when you fly away in the spaceship, leaving your opponents to freeze to death in an endless winter.

Ohhhh so there are two sets of quests? There is one set which opens up the Wonder Victory, and then another one which starts along the lines of : "The planet is changing. You will investigate these changes etc. etc. ec." , and this leads to the Quest Victory?? I thought the second set was just a time filler so I never bothered starting it. Thanks! Now I know what to do :)
