In regards to economies relying on slaves, this exists in Hegemony, a series that has sadly not gotten any attention in this community. All resource locations in those games require workers, and although you can hire workers in your cities the more profitable option is to use slaves captured on the battlefield, as they work for free.

A lovely game too bad it’s too hectic and I love RTS’s in general.

Is ‘At the Gates’ still a thing? Or is it dead again?

Gladius is out. And the award for longest game name goes to ‘Warhammer 40,000: Gladius – Relics of War’.

thanks for another great show!
as of the new stellaris poll….was realy divided between “customization” and “events/quests” but the custumization made it….great poll….was realy surprised by the outcome of the last poll, was expecting way less “positive” answers.
i just finished my game in pillars of eternity and had battletech for some weeks waiting in my playlist. so no big games in the summer sale. just picked up the vaulters and lost stories dlc for ES2.

You are wondering why a creature looks like a mech – because it’s procedurally generated! 😉
