4x game that allows you to build galaxy-sized spaceships

I'm pretty sure you might be interested. If it gets released and delivers, the late game tech and scale would make even Mekanta/Balrogga stuff pale in comparison.

Cool, I am famous!

I didn't see anything about the ships being able to use psionics to carve apart planets and stars, Mekanta does that with his ships all the time.

Stars are kinda speedbumps to a Star Ruler ubership. Seeing as how they're bigger than galaxies. :p

Of course, building a galaxy-sized spaceship may be the equivalent of building divisions in Hearts of Iron 3 made exclusively of Heavy Tanks.

Galaxy sized star ships? I can see things are getting sillier with many of these 4x games.

One of the devs posts on SB and he basically confirmed that those gigantic ships are basically superweapons you won't see except in long games or ones that you just end up building them for the lulz after having already reduced your enemy to a single system. :p
