Didn't know they had this one

[Cyneheard]

So, I tried to play Imperium 23 (Impossible Meklar, but with a friendlier map: I got to 6 worlds without having to spend a single BC in tech) using the 1.40M patch, and lost badly to a Runaway Psilon: I never got beyond those 6 worlds, and the Psilons just went nuts. But here's the interesting bit:

I lost to a civil war when the Psilons caused all two of my remaining worlds to go into rebellion. This caused an ending moving that I hadn't seen before:



Anyone seen this one before? I usually end up resigning before I die, but normally one's slain either directly through getting bombed or through conceding the vote. I've found that on Impossible the 1.40M AI is REALLY quick to expand, almost unstoppably so.

I've seen that final movie before, fortunately very rarely as I either win or give up before reaching this point.

I got the same movie after being glassed by AI.

I was playing purple Darloks & the AI to kill me was green Alkari.

Maybe this is the defeat video you get if you lose any other way than by council vote?

You also get that ending screen if you fail to put in the correct ship during the copy protection screen (does not apply to those with the GOG version since it does not matter which ship you select with that version).
