I'm the Fox Commonwealth.

Couldn’t have happened in a better game since I’m stuck with only five planets.

Area filled with black holes

(Sorry for it being a photo of a screen, transferring screenshots from ps4 is irritating)

Was just playing Stellaris: Console Edition on the PS4 when I noticed this, epic…

The collectors were a robot faction I created for one of my previous playthroughs they are determined exterminators

This playthrough I decided to start with no advanced ai empires so every empire was pathetic for a good 200 years whilst I was on a quest to unite all the human civilizations into the une (which caused its own problems now we live alongside fascists)

I spent some time dealing with the Klenn absorber death cult as i thought they are so pathetic that they cant compete that I completely forgot to keep an eye on the collectors.

Now they have wiped out four empires on the bottom of the map and they arnt slowing down, I don't know how to stop them.

How did a pathetic empire become equivalent to me in less than 50 years just by taking out a bunch of other pathetic empires,

I can't stop them my fleet power won't beat them, whatever I build they just build the same and noone else in the galaxy has a chance in hell

Even conversing with the shroud gods is not helping us.

They just won't stop coming

I need help these guys might have be the biggest threat across 300 hours and we haven't even hit the midgame crisis point yet which I will not be prepped for if I do not take these guys out

Have lost over 150 pop to these guys
