Ejlly Fish empire

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hey guys, Im brand new. Im also looking to create a metaverse empire and conquer the world with my JellyFish civilization.

The "American JellyFish" are a species that evolved on the planet "BigBlue". They were isolationists and were happy, eating, mating, swimming and playing soduko until one day there scientists picked up a radio wave drifting through space. With this wave came the television debuted of "Team " and ever sense they have been entranced with the "American" way of life. They started cloning beautiful blond women as diplomats and every "Jelly Den" waves a flag in support of the new ideology. They are so proud to be a part of "freedom" and "liberty" that they vowed to destroy galactic terrorists, stimulate the economy and only buy domestic sea trucks.

First, what traits should this "American JellyFish" civilization have? Whats a good primarily offensive civilizations bonuses and abilities look like? Next how should there play style be, there Patriotic jellyfish after all, so I want it to be aggressive.

Next, what’s the best strategy for them to build fast, amass an armada and invade 3rd world terrorist harboring worlds as early as possible while maintaining a good defense at "big blue"?



Also, add comments on how to diversify this civilization. I was of course thinking they could only habitat aquatic worlds but this would give me a massive handycap and is obviously ill advised. But what can I do to make them "special"?


NOTE: Im an American and recently signed up for the armed forces (ARMY), this is no way is derogatory in nature to the as Im about to go "KICK ASS" for them. I was just thinking about it one day when my buddy was wanting me to "wing" for him when he was trying to pick up this new girl at work. Seeing as how I only worry about "my game", which can only be described as "tight",  I could not help but laugh at the possibilities of this Jelly Fish civilization as I spaced out. Comments Required, please post ideas.

Jellyfish reproduce through a process similar to Binary Fission, right? So bump their population growth up the wazoo.

Also, those stingers would make for a nice bonus to Soldiery.

In terms of material game stuff, use the Thalan ship style, to reflect the fact that they're not quite humanoid and use differant engineering and design ethics than we do.

Swimming in a vacuum...? Sounds like golfing in a basketball court.

Sorry, that was a cheap shot ;p

You remind us Geckodons of the Lords of Atlantis, before the Terrans destroyed them that is. But anyhow, would you like to ally yourselves with us?

they are 'Space Jelly Fish' DUH ! Just like the giant pink space poodles that breath fire. Fires so hot they can melt the compass off the hull of a star ship! Space travelers beware.
