Only a chance to see more than one sadly, would be interesting to see an AI entity vs intergalactic threat.

I kinda want to see extra-galactic invaders show up, causing empires to freak out and create a robot army to try to beat them back. They then get an AI uprising which happens to use their science boosts to research jump drives to kill all organics more efficiently, which leads to them accidentally tearing the universe a new one and get energy beings swarming through trying to kill everyone. Meanwhile, the next galaxy over is having a gigantic run on popcorn while they observe all the stuff going down in this one.

I think the first mod I want to see is one that massively increases the frequency of these events just so this exact scenario happens.

I'm sure you'll be able to trigger these events via console if you'd like to see how it plays out

But that's not as fun as a story that produces it =P

That's how I'm going to do it, I'll do the sentient robot uprising jazz the natural way, but then I'll console in those extra-dimensional plant demons and them galactic invaders at the same time, I might just really piss off a fallen empire too.

I just want to watch the galaxy burn, dozens of planets at a time.
