I love this challenge, but one tip I use to get the advantage: Use sensor burst to draw their attention, instead of swooping in range. If you swoop in range, you are closer to the fleet chasing you, and it's harder to evade, but if you burst, they see you briefly, then you skip out of their trajectory and hit the planet. Takes some getting used to, but much safer, and effective i've found, especially when you can nab all of the enemy ships attention at the same time.
I tried but our profile is so small that even with sensor burst it's hard for enemies to see us. I have to get so close that we may not have time for the burn drive to become possible before they catch us.

For what ships to use in the fleet, if there are stealth combat ships that would seem very on theme. A fleet appears out of nowhere, demolishes planets, and then vanishes again.
The only possible ship to keep the theme going is the Doom, Francis. They're an insanely strong ship, they're still a phase ship (keeping in theme with Keyser Söze), and the NAME! Make the Doom Fleet, crush them all!
The system that has the alpha site is in a location that can be accessed even without completing the story line for the Ziggurat using the transverse jump thing. It is the only phase capital ship in the game. You can also order Dooms and have a totally phased combat fleet. Though if you're willing to spend some time to find good weapons and spend a few story points to make a good Ziggurat and pick the right skills, then in the player hands that thing can solo an entire remnant ordo including a Tesseract with a few Dooms
Unfortunately "As the Ziggurat is a unique, distinctive ship, while it is in the player fleet other fleets will always recognize the player even with the Transponder disabled." It's a bit to recognizable.
I just read that once a planet becomes fully decivilized, you can scout the planet and there will be ruins, that can be looted. Worth considering for those... toppled colonies!
You can put a relic or AI core on any industry so long as the construction is started; you don't have to wait until completion. Just depart from the planet and redock to enable installation!
There's a comm buoy providing +2 stability in most of those systems. Wouldn't it be easier to take out that comm buoy, then do the raids? Would reduce the number of soldiers you lose on the first raid.
Taking out the comm bouy sets you directly to war with the faction that owned it. While his personal fleet isn't in too much danger, it hits the accessibility of his colonies and therefore his pocket book. Still, his raiding eventually does the same, so you're right that it would probably be a net benefit.
I don't like to destroy Domain era stuff, you can't replace it. I know I will most likely never use that bouy but it just feels wrong to remove that option forever when we don't have to.
Hey Francis! Love the content. Had never heard of this game til you played but it’s a blast to watch! Looking forward to some more oni content perhaps 😮. Have a good day brother!
Trying to reduce the market share on fuel production. Leaves the special item that gives a bonus to fuel production. Always enjoy the starsector playthroughs.👍
Honestly I can’t wait for next episode where we will stop carrying out the current “no witness” rule but instead start to execute the new “No Witness” rule
its probably impractical against the smaller places, but for any large fleet battles you should use a ton of luddic IED ships just to flex on them. "Oh, you need some antimatter? You never said it needed to be stable!"
0:40 Tried to conquer Chicomoztoc (Heg capitol) while using the Nexerelin mod, which allows conquering planets. They rebelled themselves right into decivilizing. Woops; there goes the only size 8 planet in the sector! (100mil+ pop)
We nees decivilizate whole univerce! And just sit on throne on top of burning galaxy and watch how its fade knowing thats no one knows who started that event.
The Academy worked so hard to get gates back up only to see the core worlds decivilized for lack of fuel. On the plus side Pirates and the Pathers couldn't raid.
Suggestion: Reduce the stability of all planets in each of those systems permanently by destroying them their +stability satellites, or temporarily by taking them over. Either reduces their defenses too. Also first buying all those planet's first for your own stockpiles. Especially if the satellites are offline as their decreased accessibly can result in surpluses.
I see, this is a great analogy for OPEC and monopolies. Self sufficiency and protection of critical industries are a national security priority, first of all our dependence on this stuff is regrettable. Wasting it is even more sad, everybody is paying huge amounts for products and goods that depend on fuel and nearly everything needs fuel for one part of their process or another. All that money goes into the pockets of few people who are currently desperately trying to make it seem like they are giving back to society with their buybacks but yeah they basically were the only supplier in a market where any potential competition joins their cartel. It is what it is, now that it is done we can only hope they use the money for the betterment of society/the larger group instead of using it to only enrich their own live and the lives of their friends and family. Them funding a army to forcefully bust down the doors and start decivilizing society would be the opposite of that but well it's just a game right.
I say stealth ships :p they're not that great to use for the whole fleet without mods, tho. btw, you never noticed that that the phase ship skill actually boosts your stealth? it increases sensor strength of said ships which in turn reduces your sensor signature.
Francis, buying all those marines is why you are always losing so many; marine skill is an average of all marines you have. Veterans have a 100% strength bonus and -50% casualty cap. What you're doing is basically the Starship Troopers style of ground army; hire all the greenhorns you can find and throw them at the problem until they succeed.
The only way to get large numbers of veteran marines that I know of is to buy a truly silly amount to start with and attrite them down as you level them. The event that lets you buy 50-ish max exp Marines is too rare to count on.
I figured after we used them enough they would level up. But the missions were so dangerous that the losses counteracted the exp gain. If I tried to put the recruits in storage we were left with about 500 professional marines.
@@FrancisJohnYT What you needed to do was always send all marines on mission, and split them up so you're always hitting other targets with lower difficulty where possible to draw away defenses. It drastically reduces effectiveness to just hit a single node.
I don't think it would make for a good streaming game but I think you should play Fallen London if you never have. I think you'd like the story and character development aspects.
Here's me thinking: "Hmm, the outro sea shanty seems awfully slow. Wonder if Francis changed something?" when in actuality I had the speed at 1x instead of my normal 2x.
It's nice to have a fleet of your dream, unified and totally OP. But what if you can't choose your ships anymore? Challenge "Looter" aka "Made out of shit and sticks": 1) you can't buy or build any ships, you can use only derelict ships you can find; 2) minimal start - it's just two ships. Why would you do that? To adapt, to learn to use what Fatum gives, to play with modern fancy "inclusivity and diversity" fleet. :) Say NO to one-ship-one-design-for-entire-fleet! Optional rule 3) no more than two combat ships of the same class.
I know I'm going to be scouring the edge of space for a legion and any other capital I can scrounge. Then hit up bounties to grab some more derilicts. Are you allowed to spend a story point to reclaim ships? Would make it much easier to get some decent firepower.
@@FrancisJohnYT On second thout I think restrictions shoud be like this: 1) I (and you if interested) can by only fuel, supplies, crew and marines and can't sell any of these; 2) everything else including ships, mods and weapons I can only sell.

Two Star Sector in one Week?! Thank you Francis!
"In this Sector, first you get the money, then you get the power, THEN you get the potatoes."
- Emperor Francis ( just kidding it's Keyser Söze )
Francis is the invisible hand of the free market.
Destabilizing neighbours, supplying fuel, cornering the market. You basically playing Space Russia
Sounds like space USA to me as well.
The only possible ship to keep the theme going is the Doom, Francis. They're an insanely strong ship, they're still a phase ship (keeping in theme with Keyser Söze), and the NAME! Make the Doom Fleet, crush them all!
I spent the entire last series urging him to try the Doom lol
Hopefully he gives it a go this time!

Sinidria is tough to get close to undetected. the proximity to the star seems to trap a ton of patrols near it.

This seriously is such an interesting playstyle. I think I'll try it next time
You never have to turn on your transponder if there's no one left to tell you to turn on your transponder.

We had already stolen a synchtron core, figured we did not need a second as we already had the marked cornered with one fuel production module.

I'm talking only phase ships as your fleet. Obvious thematics, and it's an actual challenge too
its probably impractical against the smaller places, but for any large fleet battles you should use a ton of luddic IED ships just to flex on them. "Oh, you need some antimatter? You never said it needed to be stable!"
IED ships are from a mod, unfortunately :)

Keyser Söze’s Decivilization
Really the answer to attacking stations is capitals and monitors.

This is now like the British East India Company run.

Do a all phase combat ship fleet : ) It doesn't ruin the perfect fleet sensor profile. And definitely get the Zig as your flagship

Junker Vanguard spam is effective 😏
in my experience more reliable than suicide brawlers
Whichever fleet you use, I think you should be helming a phase ship this time :P
Nice
For the fleet:
Dooms are phase ships
Also id love to see you do a fleet that only uses big ships.
I don't think it would make for a good streaming game but I think you should play Fallen London if you never have. I think you'd like the story and character development aspects.

Monopoly at its best.
Star my sector sir!
Here's me thinking: "Hmm, the outro sea shanty seems awfully slow. Wonder if Francis changed something?" when in actuality I had the speed at 1x instead of my normal 2x.
I bet you can decivilize the sector just by knocking out industries one by one until the remaining colonies die from the shortages alone.
Why not use story points every time you raid to lose less marines? You get like 20 of them every raid anyway
Turns out the story points only protect your identity better, as in you do not lose reputation with the faction.
It's nice to have a fleet of your dream, unified and totally OP. But what if you can't choose your ships anymore?
