It would be nice to have a Haduir minor colony leader portrait, as well. It's a little weird that both Teros and Haduir minor colonies have a Teros leader portrait.

Glad to hear there's still something potentially in the works. Keep us posted as the situation develops, please; I'm always eager to see more finished on SiS.

Here's hoping Arioch and Sven can see to updating us on the state of things, even if the update is 'we're done. no further development'. Which would be a shame, but at least knowing for sure would settle the mind. They can be certain that they'd have MY money, at least, for the suggested future expa...

Also in on a DLC got my wallet for that In its current state the game is the best space 4x out on the market IMO by a wide margin thanks to art, design decisions, performance, tactical combat, diplomacy and AI Yes there are some bugs I wish were fixed and some balance changes but this is the best b...

As do I, but I'll admit at this point my optimism for continued development has been flagging. I don't know what's going on with Arioch and Sven, but I hope that they'll be able to find their way back to this game- I have full confidence in what they can accomplish in future updates. Even in its 'in...

Here's hoping all is well with Arioch and Sven! I still love this game, and building my little seahorse utopias.

The game I caught that, if I recall, was one where I captured the Viscid planet from an enemy, and the population loss from combat left a gap. (I find the current implementation of Viscid incredibly annoying, but that's neither here nor there. I think I'd find them less so if they were Sterile.) I ...

One thing I noted in the bug thread is that Viscid benefit from Cloning and Longevity techs, which makes no sense (your empire isn't going to be providing cutting-edge medical treatment to the blob pests that resist being wiped out!). That is an interesting catch. I think I never noticed as I tend ...

Good luck on that. I'd love to see development resume if possible; I remain very interested in Stars in Shadow and hope for some of the refinements that were talked about in the plan. Once things get a bit further I think I shall attempt to LP it again; last one fell down on updates hitting while LP...

Hopefully that can get fixed so proper bug report uploads can happen again. Once again, I'm just happy to hear you check in. Here's hoping whatever's roadblocked you clears up some!

That said, very good to hear you check back in! The long quiet spell was discouraging, but just having you confirm you're still there and what the bottleneck is helps me feel much better. Hope you and Sven are well!

Any word, Arioch or Sven? Been a while, and I think I speak for at least a few of us when I say I've missed seeing SiS updates. Looking forward to paying you guys for the next DLC, if it comes out.

Presumably, given they successfully revolted against the Gremak. They aren't counted in defensive strength for the planet, which meant I was able to take the planet as the Phidi with no resistance whatsoever.

When a planet experiences a successful slave revolt, the slaves don't free themselves, which makes it trivial to take the planet. Experienced when my neighbors the Gremak got their own population on Algor knocked down to below one unit, so the Algorians revolted... and remained slaves.
