You can play this empire by selecting the origin "Gray Tempest" in the empire creation.
It adds you the trait "Nano-Unit". This trait can NEVER be removed.
Only pops with this trait can fill up the new jobs on your Nanite Worlds!

They can NOT have normal jobs for: energy, minerals, alloys, research.
To gain these resources you get access to new jobs, districts & buildings.

Produces nanites (can be improved via new repeatable tech) & can build Gray Tempest ships with nanites. Your empire can have only 4 of them, but you can deconstruct them and build them again somewhere else (maximum is always 4 factories in your whole empire).

The "Nucleus Emitter" - available after activating the perk "Gray Salvation".
Reaching the last stage causes a galactic crisis war against you!
At the last stage you will be able to improve it multiple times, it will always reset to the previous stage.

Every time you upgrade the structure, ALL nearby systems spawn a military station called "Sanakan-Core". Each core produces 3 nanites.

These are the cores that will be spawned every time you upgrade the "Nucleus Emitter".
Their sprawl/spawn begins around your capital system, and every time you upgrade the Emitter the next systems receive a core!

The new building "Fragmentation-Hub" has a new job type only for machine pops which do NOT have the "Nano-Unit" trait - maximum 10 jobs/pop slots available.
Use the planetary decision to kill them for resources (you get 25nanites + 25 alloys for each pop that has the purge job!).

This empire can build Gray Tempest ships (nanite ships from the L-Cluster crisis) with nanites in their Nanite Factory (the limited megastructure, 4x in your empire, read above).

"Jaeger": nanite cruiser, stats are similar to a battleship but is slightly stronger
