We should invade Illuminate space

[mrwwww]

Once we have rebuilt, once the bot and bug front are stabilised, we should invade their worlds. We should bomb every single one from orbit and erase them from existence once and for all.

It is implied that we may take the fight to them at some point if certain dialogues from the Democracy Officer are to be believed. Would be fun to see the Illuminate homeworld and give em some payback.

brother they don't have any yet! i vote we send all that firepower straight to Cyberstan

It would be cool if we invaded the wormhole, and there were a second galaxy to conquer, but kinda just a "dark" galaxy with few stars with weak light. And then we find rare, valuable resources are abundant there, so it's invasion time.

And then that's what we would have to use the flare stratatgem for is seeing on worlds that have almost no light.

I thought they would get a hunk of the space map after so we could keep fighting them.

They probably will. But we're hoping it's more creative than that. It wont be, but there's always hope.

Alas, we already conquered Squ'bai Shrine last game. Which is kind of the reason for their attack now.

That's what we're planning on doing, especially now that we essentially have a Military Junta, expect a LOT more military funding, a lot more aggressive MOs, and already we have sent some drones into the wormhole, no doubt to find where the Illuminate ran off to so we can invade them. There's no doubt where we will see mobs like the Illusionist.

Hmmm... but if we invade squid space you would complain that we invade squid space, wont you?!

The thing that never made sense to me is the Meridian Singularity acts like a black hole, in that it visibly crushes planets in exactly the fashion one would expect, and yet supposedly the Squids launched a giant fleet out of it?

If they have ships with such awesome tech, why the *♥♥♥♥* didn't they just nuke SE from orbit? ESPECIALLY when it became clear that they weren't going to win the ground war? Adn if they have ships/troops who can survive traveling through a black hole that - again - we KNOW can destroy planets, how did we have ANY chance in the ground war lol?

Ignoring the obvious cheese/satire plot hole, I do want to track down whatever hole the Squids crawled into and nuke 'em. Nuke all their stupid little Squid women and Squid children, liberate the *♥♥♥♥* out of their planet, and Democratize their stupid little squid minds.

Then establish a useful puppet state to use for proxy wars and ensure they take the brunt of any operations that occur in their sector(s) of the galaxy.

Because we conquered their home world in the first game. So they wanted to conquer SE as an eye for an eye. Hence why they didn't nuke it from orbit. Plus, SE has plenty of civilians that can be converted in Voteless.
Hell we beat them back so bad in the first game, that they left our Galaxy and went to a different one. Even signed a treaty with Super Earth, which Super Earth broke by sending a bug planet through a Block Hole.

Is it even classed as a Black Hole anymore? I thought Super Earth confirmed it was a wormhole? If that's the case, Wormholes tend to go both ways.

They were going to pulverize Earth with the wormhole but the plan was stopped.
So they had to resort to costly frontal assault with their invasion fleet as the mitigation plan.

It is not "Invade", it is called "Liberate".

Problem. Most of their fleet retreated back into the wormhole. And who knows what they have on the other side. They've had a Century to build up in a different Galaxy. For all we know, that Invasion Fleet, was just the second wave (the first was the first battles we had with them a few months ago).
