They don't seem to have that issue in my game...
In fact I might have a Xenon Apocalypse on my hands:
That looks nice
Curious : How do Scale Plate Green/Turqoise Sea, Atyas Misfortunte/Faulty Logic hold up in that game?
Atyas Misfortunte/Faulty Logic is my playground. I was about to clear HOP but decided it's probably better to help ZYA push back the terraformers.
Scale Plate Green/Turqoise Sea is Xenon, seems pretty basic, Comapny Regard is practically Xenon and Hewas Twin II is under siege. Here the Xenon have issue cleaning out the last defense stations which seems to be more of an issue for them then E-cells in my game. They had fleets in Scale Plate and Turquise but they didn't seem to feel the need to leave their guard positions and only attack the Teladi sectors with small ships which is obviously much slower than an I just lumbering through their stations.
So staying on topic:
I suspect Xenon have a built in global capital ship limit and right now only guard Ks exist in Scale Plate. This would also explain why they are so strong up North and why the Argon Fed cannot push toward Tharka's Cascade even though Argon Prime is my main cash system and the Shipyard/Wharf there is topped up 24/7 to the brim. Funnily me moving into Atiya's might have made it worse for the Split.
Also notice in the previous post they built an extra shipyard in wretched skies. Curious if it's a replacement for the Atya's one or they build more depending on territory.
Honestly they are an end game enemy so I don't mind playing some whack-a-mole with them but this is a bit ridiculous. If I'm right in the case I clear out another pocket they might get stronger in Scale Plate and wreck the sectors there, ironically making them stronger (more concentrated) by taking territory from them.
Also a funny thing is since Heretics end is neutral no bordering faction wants it and it acts as a buffer. So if I'd want to screw over the Argon I'd build a simple admin center there and have the Xenon take over, opening a second front. It's just funny how Xenon follow a no mans land rule.
