Faction Leaders:
All seven factions now have leaders, with unique clothes, appearances, and personalities.
- Black Star Mercenary Corporation: Tyrant, the indomitable general
- Prime Consumer Electronics: Micah, the brilliant engineer
- Null Autonomous Collective: Speaker, The enigmatic automaton
- Vladivostok Holdings: Raza, the cutthroat businesswoman
- Shiva Military Corporation: Pari, the shrewd diplomat
- Australian Cooperative: Ava, the naive philanthropist
- Piaoliao Nuli: Fei, the sadistic slaver
The new Diplomacy menu allows you to speak with any factions that you haven’t yet conquered.
Faction leaders who are friendly with you or scared of your military will send you tribute.
Conquering a faction’s home system enslaves its leader.
Enslaved faction leaders each have a unique event, which can grant a permanent upgrade to your station (some also have variants depending on your choices).
Governments:
Taking planets that are owned by a government now constitutes an act of war.
Governments that are at war with you will send fleets against your planets, as well as covert attacks against your station (which can have catastrophic results if not handled well).
Planet Upgrades:
You can now upgrade your planets with improved defenses (to stop them from being taken by faction leaders), increase their obedience or fear with social programs, and even commit genocide on the population to replace them with another species.
Tribute obedience and fear are now driven by the obedience and fear of their homeworld.
Station Upgrades:
You can now upgrade your station to increase revenues for your chosen play style, as well as change the visa caps for both residents and tourists (both range from 0 to 200).
