Hey guys, I came up with a clever way to utilize all of the Eevee qualities the mod gives, even the contradictory ones like Extremely Cute trait's diplomacy bonus and the Eevee Assimilator civic's diplomatic penalty. Some of this is a pretty straightforward, exploiting the Imperial Fiefdom origin, but it does have the benefit of you having the strongest assault armies in the galaxy.

Eeveelution traits at a glance:

-Free necrophage civic (but you have to change EVERY Non-Evoi's species rights if you change out of it and back into it.)
-"Natural Psionic Warrior" stacks with "Strong"
-Save on housing
-Habitibility starts strong and stops being a concern altogether once we genetically ascend.
-Diplomatic bonus (Canceled out by Eevee Assimilator)
-specialized pops
-Mega Evolution and Engineered Evolution perks are very powerful.

Absolutely Free Evoi RepublOH NO POKEBALL! (Later renamed "Eeveelution Grand Kratocracy")

Backstory: Overlord used Poke Ball! *wiggle, wiggle, CLICK!* Gotcha! An entire civilization of Eevees was Caught!
Build :Imperial Fiefdom origin, Nationalistic Zeal and Slaver Guild civics, Fanatic Militarist and Authoritarian.
Traits: Inheritors, Directed Evolution, Pokeball Adaptability, Extremely Cute, Natural Psionic Warrior, Very Strong, Existential Iteroparity, Deviants, Slow Learners, Quarrelsome

Alternative extra-spicy trait-pick exploit traits: Inheritors, Directed Evolution, Pokeball Adaptability, Extremely Cute, Natural Psionic Warrior, Very Strong, Resilient, Docile, Intelligent, Natural Sociologists, Slow Breeders, Wasteful, Deviants, Jinxed, Slow Learners, Quarrelsome (Could pick up Fleeting and Decadent for Charismatic, but those particular negative traits might cause ACTUAL problems that a few more amenities might not be able to handle)

Strat: Sign up as a Bulwark for Overlord, Make enslaved Evois battle Thralls for, Set stance to Belligerent, First contact to Active, and borders to Open, explore galaxy aggressively and claim valuable enemy systems. Discovery tree and Interstellar Dominion perk first, this along with Belligerent stance and other bonuses should make claims super cheap and your science ships surveying enemy space. Save your envoys for first contact. Non-genocidal gestalts can be left alone (even organic hiveminds have nothing to offer us...until we activate Eevee Assimilators). Friendly greetings, re-gifting our bulwark resources, and our innate cuteness should disarm anybody who could be a threat or close borders on us...right up to the point that we abruptly claim their home system and declare war on them. Genocidial empires should be rivaled, insulted, and generally annoyed mercilessly into starting a war with us AND our overlord. (if it doesn't work, just keep hurling insults. They need to KNOW that they are cowards....)

(Actually, it seems that indolent warlords are useless for conquering your claims because they cannot join your offensive wars and no matter how annoying you are, the computer will probably never attack you while your overlord has overwhelming power. On the plus side, your defensive position is fantastic, you can quickly unlock Mega-engineering, and you start with 5 destroyers. So change your trade hub to a second shipyard, go for supremacy, and spam out some corvette fleets you were going to make for exploration anyway. 30 corvettes and 5 destroys bet just about anything. Go fight your own battles, kid. Claim all their planets and gank their empires with your incredible basic assault armies.)

Refugees might be welcome, but it would be easier to set it to "Citizen species only", because once the succession crisis hits, we're going to switch Nationalistic Zeal to Eevee Assimilator and set default species rights to "Eevee Assimilation". But Assimilator is only going to hurt us diplomatically before the "succession crisis".

Our third civic should be "Feudal society" for the inevitible "reunification" of the overlords' empire under our rule.

We want to keep the Slaver guilds to take advantage of "Mega Dark Evolution's" Slave resource output. If possible make a Slave subrace of Eevees with Mega Dark, Electric, Water, AND Fire evolution traits with Very strong/Resilient and Clone them on your fortress worlds (or possibly our Maginot Ring segments on our Behemoth Ringworlds, but we'll get to other mods in a bit)

You're going to be super wide, but all your systems are going to be all over the place, so fortify them as much as you can with strongholds and defense platforms once your corvette spam is no longer cutting it.

With all this pop power, you could just build ringworlds and fight All the x25 crises, but it seems a shame to not download a mod like Gigastructures or ACOT with Secrets Beyond the Gates submod (or Both and Fight the Lux Aeternum), and enable some truly horrific endgame crises at their maximum difficulty levels, to test our strength. ACOT in particular lets you share your delta-tier technologies will the rest of the galaxy, who you should've turned into Bulwarks by now. Just remember that with the Stellarborne and the Lux Aeternum, you should just leave the galactic core and the outer gates alone until you have upgraded your fleet to their full, stellarite-powered potential....

Ideal mod settings:

Mid-game year 2400, Endgame 2500, Blokkats set to Endgame +100 years (year 2600).
You will need the extra century since you aren't starting with Delta technology from the "Legacy of the Void" origin.
Katzenarig Imperium DISABLED. Jublio and Jubtwo systems DISABLED.
Katzenland ENABLED
Fallen Empire Megastructures Enabled. strength partially boosted
Bogged down researchers enabled (If you win, you get an O-class Matrioska brain, if you lose, well, the hyperlane network is utterly swish-cheesed but at least the game isn't over!)
Lux Aeternum enabled (Defeat and repair their Void Sphere before opening Outer Gates)
Obliterator Blokkats (The Stellarborne's secret ultra-spooky rival is not implimented yet, so you might as well have the Blokkats stand in for it. If they are, don't use the power of the light against them, this is cheating and defeats the purpose. Bad. No. ....Maybe you can blow up the galaxy as an extreme last ditch failsafe when all hope is truly lost. A maginot GALAXY....with a dimension-shattering dead-hand weapon.....)


Are you a bad enough dude to win the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny between Eevees and lego-tabbies?
