I noticed that the Hahn-Murans kept their borders open even after our truce expired, and went to have a look at our relations. this, uh, speaks volumes

my war's over... to the enemy's credit, they made me regret not building a third fleet for map control

also, there's a Great Khan event happening on the other side of the galaxy, but I don't have wormhole tech yet so I can't play unless they come down here

not everyone shares Hahn-Muran Moxie, it appears

Stellaris combats rarely result in stack wipes. normally a defeated fleet retreats to hyperspace and appears at a friendly starbase some time later

well, theirs just reappeared right next to the system I took, and I might be taking that personally
January 23, 2026 at 4:24 AM
more of that Moxie. probably not as high-upside as not declaring war on me in the first place, but I can't fault their bravery
January 23, 2026 at 4:19 AM
they do, however, have Moxie

zooming in a little further makes the Hahn-Murans' problem a bit more clear: they have a few small fleets (those red ship icons with one or two stars), I have two big ones (green, four stars). they also have a fairly sparse graph, making it easy for me to avoid getting outflanked

the brown-outlined blob next to them is the Cooperative of Khell, fellow-travelers in the Coalition of Associated Nations

I can only presume that having a buddy is why they declared war despite, well, this
January 23, 2026 at 4:04 AM
fuck it stellaris thread

this red blob is the Hahn-Muran Regime, a fanatic xenophile... crusader spirited... empire of honour-bound warriors. they declared war on the Salticus Initiative (me) a few game years ago, because they don't like populist-militarist-spiritualist docker containers, ig (>)

nah I love it here

made something not unlike hainanese chicken rice, adapted to avoid my textural issues with soft chicken skin (rendering fat from skin separately). when I tasted each component separately I thought they were awfully mild, but it all came together really well 🍽️🍜

okay, this was Good. dressing started with an ad-hoc scallion garlic oil from the oil the sardines were packed in, plus some soy sauce, fish sauce, and rice wine vinegar. tossed the noodles in that right out of the water. steamed some asparagus over the cooking noodles. warmed the sardines. 🍜🍽️
