but what if they were cute mushroom girls
then it would be ok
>>338054283
How would one go ahead and make a fungal form of life whose main form of sustenance is slowly being parasitic and eating flesh, cute?
It has no tits, it has no ass, it has nothing to fuck, it would likely eat anything you gave it, it would eat hats and clothes, and if you fucked it, its likely your dick would be eaten slowly or you would be incubating mushshrooms on your dick canal. Come the fuck on.

there is no proof that orks are fungal lifeforms, just an assumption, no observation of an ork born, and just because no female orks have been spotted doesn't mean they don't exist.
maybe the people recording and collecting data should stay alive a little longer
>>338059058
Orks aren't fungal lifeforms, they are a creature which has parasitic fungus growing inside it. The only part of an ork that doesn't have any fungus in it is the head.
The orks themselves ain't fungus.
>playing with a friend
>both empires next to each other

FUCKING ASSHOLES
>>338059312
>>338059058
Come off it. Orks are fungal hybrids who reproduce through spores shed throughout their lives and when they die. The entire Orkoid ecosystem from mushrooms to grots to squigs to Orks all grow out of the ground from these spores.
Being part-fungus is the reason their physiology is so robust

yeah? where's the record of this, all i ever hear is theories.
>>338059920
pretty much. if you ahve researched the debris from the fighting you have access to tachyon lances and the game is over.
battleships with these lances will rip through everything, whatever kind of invasion you will get will be a joke.
>>338055384
Not at all, it's just sci-fi fun for video games and movies.
You should start going to church, Anon.
>>338047981
What is this from? because everyone else is posting the dark souls mushroom people.
Why did the mushroom go to the party?
>>338059991
It looks like game doesn't process bonuses into fleet power so
1. super high tech in tree (because I was only advancing tech all game) which resulted in +25% kinetic weapon damage and +20% attack speed
2.Shield dumpering+Weapon dumpering+FTL dumpering+ Shield regen Battleships
3. Due to their point defense I've build my ships around kinetic artillery(since I don't like energy weapon like tachyon), since our battle was on range 30-60, only high range weapons would be useful at all
4. Was catching their fleet one by one, resulting in only 25k vs 25k/20k/19k/13k rather than 25k vs 51k
>>338050740
U got shroomed
>>338060069
Since it's been that way since the start I think the burden of proving it's no longer true falls on you
The mushroom said to me once, ‘Nature loves courage. Nature loves courage,’ and I said, ‘What’s the payoff on that?’ And it said, ‘It shows you it loves courage because it removes obstacles.’ You make a commitment, and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream, and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up.

this is the ostriches sticking his head in the sand, and lemmings running off cliffs all over again, neither of them do those things, but it's been like that since the start so...
just because Orkz seem to come out of nowhere and slaughter with gay abandon does not make them fungal
if anything this makes actual fungal species in space receive unwarranted infamy because of the actions of the Orkz
i am glad to be proven wrong, though if there is anything other than theories.

How useful is Fanatical Spiritualist + Militarist if you're going for the Divine Mandate government type?
What are some good racial traits if I want to go for something that feels kinda like the Covenant? I'm considering Decadent+Repugnant for drawbacks and Industrious+Adaptive for positive traits.

Friendly reminder that Fungi aren't animal or plant lifeforms, they're something entirely different.
Friendly reminder that certain spores can survive in space.
Friendly reminder that Fungi are literally an alien lifeform that made its way here via space debris.

Scientists can't find any evolutionary relatives to it.
Biologists don't classify it as a plant or an animal, they consider it a "hybrid" inbetween the two. Fungi are the only known organism with this type of classification.
It's not ludicrous to think that over the course of Earth's entire lifespan, a spore was able to make its way from its original planet to Earth after some sort of meteor/asteroid/comet impact dislodged it.

That's strange since they're definitively related to eukaryotes. Unless you're implying ALL life is from another planet, which is a hypothesis, but is criticised to hell and lacks a lot of evidence.

I have no idea what a eukaryote is, all I know on the subject is derived from Joe Rogan podcasts.
>>338072734
An eukaryote is a celltype with no core
While a prokaryote is a celltype with a core
All living organisms like trees and animals are based around prokaryotes, while bacteria and fungi are based around eukaryotes

>>338073067
>>338072734
Biology guy here. That guy is quite wrong. First of all, eukaryotes are the cells with a core (nucleus). Prokaryotes don't have those and DNA just floats around inside the cell.
All "advanced" life are eukaryotes. Animals, plants AND fungi.
