Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) | comment |
Gigastructural Engineering & More is a Game Mod for Stellaris originally by Elowiny, themed around, as the name implies, more and larger megastructures. However, that is not where the mod ends, adding a new midgame crisis, two new endgame crises, and a post-endgame crisis. In total, it adds 45 new megastructures, The Katzenartig Imperium, The Aeternum, The Compound, and The Blokkat Harvesters, providing a significant cast of characters and lore to add to the game, all individual components being completely optional.It has a lore wiki here and a gameplay wiki here. | |

Kaiserreich | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_123b8ee9 | comment |
Kaiserreich: The Katzenartig Imperium is themed around this, being a highly militaristic and expansionist empire, united around a powerful monarch known as Kaiser Kattail, who depending on your settings will usually try to conquer the galaxy starting around the 2300's. | |

Land of One City | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_2f6b63aa | comment |
Land of One City: The Frame World Origin only allows the player to start in the afromented colony and nowhere else, with them unable to colonize any other cities and any conquered planets during Total War will automatically be resettled into the Capital. | |

Gratuitous German | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_35fb9016 | comment |
Gratuitous German: Most of the Katzenartig Imperium's terminology falls squarely into this trope, with the most notable example being the Riesiegerkatzenpanzer, roughly translating to 'Giant Cat Tank'. | |

Rule of Cool | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_36e63b81 | comment |
Rule of Cool: Realistically speaking, a lot of these structures should collapse under the sheer stress of their own weight. How the heck do they hold themselves up? One of the megastructure descriptions mentions some Technobabble involving the use of extra dimensions and Word of God has joked about duct tape. But mostly? These structures are simply awesome! | |

Magic Harms Technology | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_50f85863 | comment |
Magic Harms Technology: One of the planets in the mod is covered in a mysterious field, which apparently causes the laws of physics to work differently. Advanced conventional technology becomes non-functional, whereas the natives somehow make use of a force reminiscent of fantasy magic. Try to invade them via conventional means? Their necromancers will curbstomp your sci-fi armies. | |

Flat World | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_54956f54 | comment |
Flat World: Your scientists can stumble across a flat Earth, sustained by artificial gravity generators. They have no idea what its makers were thinking, and assume that the primitives currently living on it are going to be very confused when they leave it. One of the custom origins provided by the mod allows you to play those primitives. | |

That's No Moon | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_68f95429 | comment |
That's No Moon: Technically, the Attack Moon, Behemoth Planetcraft, and Stellar Systemcraft all started out as actual celestial features (the first two can be constructed by specialized megastructure shipyards, but the construction process requires harvesting celestial features for their basic mass), but successfully constructing any one of them makes them subject to this. | |

Space Is an Ocean | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_7d97ab06 | comment |
Space Is A World War I Battlefield: In the mind of the Kaiser, armored warfare on planets is directly translatable to space, with most Katzen admirals having traits related to armored warfare giving minor bonuses. | |

Mechanical Abomination | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_80874b5d | comment |
Mechanical Abomination: The Blokkats are something like this, being made of uncountable numbers of attomachines that each have computational capacities comparable to planetary-scale computers. Their objective is to preserve their existence indefinitely by accumulating so much mass-energy they can propagate their civilization into future versions of the universe. They do this by dismantling entire galaxies, and even harvesting the vacuum energy constant. | |

Danger in the Galactic Core | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_9959141d | comment |
Danger in the Galactic Core: In vanilla Stellaris, there are originally no hyperlanes leading to the galactic core, and there are only a few stories covering it. This mod adds a project to open hyperlanes leading to it. The galactic core may or may not already have a fallen empire called the Aeternum already occupying it. One of the mod's crises involves them awakening. If a civilization manages to take control of the supermassive quasar in the center of the galaxy, they can build the Quasi-Stellar Obliterator, a superweapon capable of taking out multiple star systems in one shot, turning them into a threat against the entire galaxy. | |

Interstellar Weapon: Two, the Nicoll-Dyson beam, a star whose output is redirected to a Planet Killer or even star-killer weapon, or the Quasi-Stellar Obliterator, an Active Galactic Nucleus with its power used to kill entire star clusters. | |

Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_ac320c0e | comment |
Nuke 'em: The Katzens love nuclear weapons and nuclear power, with nearly everything Katzen powered by fission or fusion reactors, and the Katzens making copious use of nuclear weapons, both as part of their conquest of Flusion and of the galaxy. | |

Tank Goodness | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_cd809603 | comment |
Tank Goodness: The Katzenartig Imperium loves tanks, with most Katzens apparently trained in armored warfare from their youths, their smallest warships looking like tanks with rocket engines, and their iconic ground vehicle the Riesiegerkatzenpanzer being five hundred meters long, 185 meters tall, and 75 wide, carrying a hypersonic nuclear railgun as its main armament and hundreds of secondary guns. | |

Serial Escalation | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_ce104b8e | comment |
Serial Escalation: Much of the content of this mod effectively falls into this. Instead of putting one ringworld around a star, put four. Ringworlds not enough? Build an Alderson Disk. The Prethoryn want to consume all the life in the galaxy? The Blokkats want to harvest the galaxy down to the vacuum energy constant! | |

Ring World Planet | |
Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_d8068af5 | comment |
Ring World Planet: The mod offers the ability to surround the vanilla Stellaris ringworld with more rings. With enough tech and an ascension perk, you can build an Alderson Disk instead. There is a chance of you encountering an abandoned "Square World", where the would-be ring has corners. How does it handle the uneven gravitational pressure? It uses a form of Unobtanium and some unique alien technology. | |

Gigastructural Enginnering And More (Video Game) / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: Perhaps fittingly, given Stellaris is very much a Spiritual Adaptation of the Spore Space Stage, the Aeternum are quite similar of The Grox Empire. A powerful, mysterious, ancient, reclusive and extremely technologically advanced (even compared to The late-game player's empire) empire that gives little information about itself to other empires, has a seething hatred for other species, resides in the galactic core, and stays inactive until a war starts, at which point there is no turning back, and no peace to be made. About the only real difference is that unlike The Grox, the Aeternites will eventually declare war on the entire galaxy with the intention of exterminating them, serving as an alternative Final Boss to the other endgame crisis'.note Unless you fight the Blokkats | |

With the right ascension perk, you can combine multiple attack moons and behemoth planetcrafts to forge a Stellar Systemcraft. | |
