for those wondering according to NASA "Though Mercury's magnetic field at the surface has just 1% the strength of Earth's, it interacts with the magnetic field of the solar wind to sometimes create intense magnetic tornadoes that funnel the fast, hot solar wind plasma down to the surface of the planet". So yes plasma tornadoes exist and are a thing on mercury ^.^

I don't blame Quill for being intimidated by the Ship designer. It's definitely the most impenetrable part of this game. I hope the devs can find a way to make it more understandable for mere mortals like myself without compromising on its depth.

Regarding 1:27:42, the following a piece of information that is not stated in the game, as far as I know. But it is not too hard to figure out either, so... mild spoiler? Aliens can only move into adjacent regions. This is until pro-alien human factions (i.e. Servants, Protectorate or Academy) complete the Alien Diplomacy project, which allows Aliens to move freely between any of their respectively controlled regions across the Earth.

Happy to see you continue this play through. Also, Children of the Cog I’m almost certain is just the early iteration of the Mechanicus.

the reason why the time changes in the designer is that adding engines changes the flight dynamics of the design as well as the TIME it takes to build. Which changes the launch window.... Which affects how long it will take to get to a specific location.... It's doing a lot of math behind the scenes which is why it looks so obtuse and seems to not make sense.

If you're using missiles and just defending Earth, you can use 4.0 kps dV, because with missiles your ship doesn't need to make maneuvers in combat. You only require more for guns, so you can approach the enemy. In fact, 2.0 kps is enough if you don't try to intercept on the strategic map, and just defend if they attack your station.

While I love the concept and the strategy of this game, I can't help but feel intimidated by it and would hate to get too frustrated to play it. At least for now I'm happy to watch you

The Federation system is kinda confusing at first, but you can add any nations to the federation of any of the "core" members have a general claim land owned by that non-core potential federation member. But you can never unify with them fully. So you can have a Denmark in a United North America but you cant unify them later unlike Canada. The way I do it is I take the outsider potential federated member and just have them cede territory then drop control on them. In my game I have Canada as a member of the EU.

Quill jokes about "30 is hot, clearly it's obvious which units" but I know some folks from Wisconsin who think that anything above freezing is t-shirt and shorts weather, so you never know, man, lmao

The thing about neutrons making up most atoms in the universe is actually wrong: most atoms in the universe are hydrogen-1, which has zero neutrons.

it seems odd that the enemy faction agents always keep leaving, you may have a mole from their faction among your own agents. Is there any of your own agents you haven't investigated?

Why are you so focused on range for Monitor ships. You are supposed to build them directly from orbital/land habitat. You are overweighting your ships so much that they can't do their actual job in order to fill a job that isn't their. Monitor are heavily armored short range (coastal) defence ships. You are trying to turn them into high sea long range battlecruiser...

The game correctly models the behavior of humans. Since China is authorititarian with high unity, its people assume they are all supposed to be aligned with the government, despite it being completely obvious that government is the force that always subverts and destroys the wealth of people.
