About This Content An iconic race from Master of Orion II has returned to conquer the stars! The eldritch Trilarian join the original 10 races with their own emperors and advisors, new ship hulls and blueprints, and unique perks and personalities. The whole galaxy welcomes their arrival, just in time to face the return of the nefarious Antarans. In the depths of the other-worldly oceans of Trilar, the Trilarian Shoal is governed by the Stinger, half-dictator and half messianic figure. His tentacled subjects worship old gods fashioned around folk tales and cryptic mythology, whose darker undertones clash with their overall friendly disposition towards other races. They are generally willing to coexist with other races and rarely seek out open conflict, but they are capable of quickly turning face when they believe it is the will of their deities to do so. b4d347fde0 Title: Master of Orion: Trilarian ShoalGenre: StrategyDeveloper:NGD StudiosPublisher:Wargaming LabsRelease Date: 1 Dec, 2016 Master Of Orion: Trilarian Shoal Pack master of orion trilarian shoal I'm glad I waited to finally get into the game. New races are fantastic. Well voiced and full of charisma. I wish every game had the budget to voice characters as well as this. Get it in the multipack for $10 as opposed to individually to save money. I'm just going to cut and paste this review for all 3 since I really think they all go together..

The Trilarians unfortunately suck. Not because they're not good. In fact, they have a pair of very useful bonuses (extra speed on both tactical and strategic maps + extra effectiveness on Ocean planets) with zero downsides in terms of racial traits. But that's just it: they're boring. EXTREMELY boring.How one can make Cthulu-esque fish people boring is kind of amazing actually. They simply need some extra traits that make them genuinely unique. For example, make their beacons act as warp gates, so they can warp around the map ignoring starlanes really early and even into neutral\/enemy territory, but have them cost 1 BC per turn instead of zero. Have extra effects for all Trilarian workers when in any "aquatic" biome (Swamp, Terran, Ocean, or Gaia) but have major penalties when in any non aquatic biome (Volcanic, Desert, Barren, Arid et cetera), thus incentivizing terraforming into aquatic biomes. Let them gain immunity from space monsters . . . something. As it is, you'll probably get them anyway if you pick up the 3-pack on extra races, which is recommended. But if you're thinking of picking them up individually,don't. They're just . . . lame.. Deep Ones :DPh'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die.. The Trilarians unfortunately suck. Not because they're not good.
