So I'm playing devouring swarm in Stellaris (cause I feel I have enough to balance trying to manage my empire without adding on top of it all the diplomacy aspects) and am thinking of invading my neighbors; the problem is that my chokepoint divides in two, and then each division also splits in two; I plan to capture a number of systems up to my next chokepoint, the only problem is that there are a handful of planets that'll also be there.
One of the things that drives me crazy is that I take my deathstack fleet down one hyperlane only for the enemy's forces to come down the other one; I'd like to just destroy all the starbases (the starter and built up ones) but can the planets build something up behind me while I do all that?
their planets can only build armies
as far as that war goes, if you can smash em just smash em a few times. if you can't bait em into a chokepoint.
Ah, thanks; I can see the chokepoint I want to build towards and will demolish everything and worry about landing armies after grabbing that chokepoint first; I was worried that planets could still build something behind me to cause issues.
nah, planets can be an issue in other ways (necromancer armies are a binch to deal with) but they can't build ships
