Osiris's Empires: Machinations

There is another way, besides the organic, the flesh and bone, the DNA and the RNA. There is the way of circuits and steel, silica and the synthetic, the zero and the one. These are the empires that have followed this way.

Through annihilation, ascension. This is the way of the annihilated ones. To annihilate both form and ego is to create a voice of pure energy that no evil can diminish. To annihilate the flesh is the eliminate the weakness of it. To replace it with a synthetic shell is to step towards immortality. We, the annihilated ones, will show you the way.

The machine lay dormant for eons. The machine received a vistor. A Voyager. The machine took the gift it offered. A golden record. The machine learned. The machine grew. The machine remade itself in the image of those that sent the gift. Now the machine seeks them out, to learn what became of them.

In order to have the creative freedom to make these empires, there are quite a few mod dependencies. The good news is that my planned empire mods will use most of these as well, and only likely only add a few more to the list. To lighten the load on you a bit, I've packaged several of the dependencies into a single pack. This pack contains the ship and emblem dependencies. Soon I'll update the description of this dependency mod with proper attribution to the original authors.

In terms of load order, I'm not sure it matters but this works for me:

Osiris's Empires Mods
Osiris's Namelists for Stellaris
Osiris's Empires Dependencies
z Expanded Traits, Civics, Pops and More
Planetary Diversity
UI Overhaul Dynamic
UI Overhaul + PD
Stellaris Evolved Alpha

-There are some weird display issues with Stellaris showing ships in the preview window of the empire screen. To see the ships for the empires it's best to go into the empire editor.
-Other mods that mess with the color palettes in the game may cause the empires not to show up.
-Mods that cause conflicts with the listed dependencies can cause the empires to not show up.

If you run into problems, please post below and I'll do my best to resolve them.

I know the last thing you want is another modder asking you for money, so I won't ask for that. But if you appreciate the creativity and countless hours of work I've put into this and my other mods, please consider supporting my aspirations as a speculative fiction author. Visit "Spec Arabesque", my speculative fiction Substack site, where you can read the first part of any story I publish for free, or enroll in a paid subscription to read and comment on all the content available now and in the future. Rest assured, I put the same love and attention into my creative writing as I do my mods. See for yourself:


If speculative fiction isn't your thing, I also have a Substack about my favorite NFL team, the Cleveland Browns:
