To the attention of [REDACTED]



Dear [REDACTED],


We have received critical intel on the Endless Space 2 project. Based on our findings, it seems likely that an upcoming major faction will be created through community votes.


Our agents monitored the creation of the Eyder minor faction in late 2015, and you might be familiar with the process. A series of votes progressively shapes various aspects of the faction, until its personality and looks emerge. We suspect the methods employed will be similar.


Here are the critical facts we have gathered, based on reliable sources:

  • This new major faction will be included in a major expansion for Endless Space 2. Our leads on the Vaulters had been accurate and these were released in January, 2018, but this mentions of a new faction confirms our earlier intel that lent the rumors. A secondary investigation has been launched to dig up the sources of these rumors and see if they can be flipped to join our network.
  • This major faction appears to be espionage-oriented. There are many different ways this could play out, and within the parameters of this contest, the end result will be entirely up to the community.
  • We have seen a roadmap of the event which, although limited, gives us a solid understanding of the process ahead. It is reproduced below for your benefit:



SPECIES TYPE => ORIGIN => HOME PLANET => CIVILIAN DESIGN => SHIP DESIGN



It is our belief that influencing the outcome of this process is of paramount importance to the well-being of our society. We recommend proceeding to the Votes section and throwing our weight behind our preferred option, starting with [Species Type].


We remain confident that final victory will be ours.


Sincerely,

[REDACTED]

Sowers or Automatons ? Those would be great. Or spy oriented like Shifters, you know, shadow-like ships, bonuses from gas giants, stealing technology ( without standard technology progress ).

Those will probably be the race after this. And the Forgotten were spies.

Shadowlike ships, so like ships phasing in and out of this dimension? With maybe extra evasion-specific ship modules in which weapons pass through from time to time...

This is my favorite type of faction. Can't wait ^^ Loved The Forgotten in EL (Which, btw, need to return if another EL is ever made).

Voted for aliens, we have already way too many humanoids and robots are kind of meh.


I would love to see a sneaky alien-cat like race, masters of espionage.

I can see why people like the sneaky alien idea, but stealthy-james -bond-killer robots just sound too cool!

Would'nt that fall under Humanoids as well though? If they walk on 2 legs and use their arms like humans and rea able to talk they're humanoids. Then again I dont know what you're picturing exactly (lol). Cause what I'm imagining right now is something similar to the Khajit from the Elder Scrolls series.
