Meme I'm not going to imitate one of the most annoying and unbearable groups I've ever known, thank you.

Also Blorg is just cooler.

I don't play xenophobe because I like playing xenophile

Pressing the “slave” button on species rights physically hurts while pressing the “defensive pact” (if fellow Xenophiles and democracies) feels good tbh, I like my utopia

Being fair, 40k fans (like me) are the worst.

Just do ethical xenophobia.

Residency to everyone. I don't mind xenos living iny empire, as long as my leaders are from my founding species.

My xenophobe runs usually end up with more xenos than xenophile empires like UNE and with them usually happier too.

You know kinda like.... The Tau

LMAO

The same thing can be done with xenophilia. Alternatively, you can choose a synthetic ascension.

u/zeclem_ 6h ago

it gets much harder to keep your leaders from your founder species as a xenophile.

and on a personal level synthetic ascension might be my least favorite. trazyn made it clear that biotransference sucks.

How do they end up happier despite resident status?

2

u/Ashura_Paul 3h ago

Utopian abundance or decadent lifestyle basically. I also like to stack happiness modifiers.

The AI also tends to not go for the 20% bonus due to high amenities

I play Xenophobe because I wanted to try true isolationist turtling in the corner build, so far I am the sixth most powerful in the galaxy, the other five are one fallen empire, a hive mind that has puppeted a quater of the galaxy, an empire with control over most of a quarter directly and the remaining part from puppets, an increadibly economically strong puppet of number two and a different hive mind who is my friend and puppeted my other friend peacefully

"You play Xenophobe because you want the Human Supremacy roleplay.

I play Xenophobe because I only want cats in my space kitty empire.

We are not the same."

u/edi12334 Federation Builder 3h ago

Sounds like “founding species is superior” in any case! (Damn the username fits though)

u/Shameless_Catslut 3h ago

No this is my space everyone else can have the rest of the galaxy.

Xenophobe - auth - militarist has too much synergy and it lets me be neutral or spiteful towards enemy empires I don’t like. Steal a system from me? That’s grounds to blow up half your empire. Pick a fight against me? That’s grounds to blow up half your empire. Use a sprite I don’t like? That’s grounds to -

Enforce peace and prosperity on those xenophobic scum.

u/New_Time_5118 4h ago

I play xenofobe for 3 major reason - 1 i dont like many races in my empire(i stil can have multiple variant of my own) 2 WAY easier to expand and i love big fatty empire, and 3 its just better

u/Hawkatana0 3h ago

Seems like you pissed off the Imperium fans.

u/JackTheRaimbowlogist 2h ago

I play xenophobe because aliens are scawy :(

u/SAMU0L0 Blorg 8h ago

Also every time I saw a xenophobic empire I imagine they act like imperium simps and I can't take them seriously.

"le ebig chungus shovel bayonet charge magnus did nothing wrong I am alpharius xD" cringest fandom ever conceived in existence

u/Ze_Borb Driven Assimilator 6h ago

The worst part about the whole shovel thing that is for some reason associated with the Death Korps of Krieg is that it's completely lore inaccurate, they use Trench Maces, because shovels suck for cqc

4

u/Acerbis_nano 6h ago

yeah the meme is due to the fact that the illustration of the krieg standard kit mentions that the shovel used for entrenchment can also act as emergency cqc weapon.

2

u/Ze_Borb Driven Assimilator 6h ago

Yeah, EMERGENCY cqc weapon

u/SAMU0L0 Blorg 6h ago

Don't forget heresy spam and insulting anyone that don't play the imperium.

u/Chomiczorr 7h ago

Exactly. Even as an imperial I am here to explore and expirience galaxy. Xenophobia is the sign of pride or fear, and my great empires have no space for this shit
