Homeworld is a Hive World

Habitability preference is set to Hive World, making other types of planets undesirable.

Colony ships are more expensive, but will trigger a process for non-ideal planets which will slowly turn the planet into a Hive World

Biotech integrated

starting civic only

Part of the crew, part of the ship. The hive integrates themselves with their technology, making it impossible for other empires to understand them.

Your ships do not generate debris, so your tech cannot be stolen

Daily Armor Regen: 0.20%

Mutualistic Behavior

Cannot use Unrestricted Wars policy

Cannot engage in Indiscriminate Orbital Bombardment

Refugees are always welcome

Has the 'Demand Sacrifice' casus belli on all other empires, which allows Parasitic Embryos to subjugate them to offer Pops as tribute.

+500% Slave market cost

Autonomous Drones

This Hive allows its drones to have some sort of freedom and independence from the Collective. While still part of the Collective, it is possible to distinguish one from another and easy to identify personality traits on each individual drone.

Diplomatic Weight from Pops: +20%

Pop Growth from Immigration: +10%

Focused Collective

Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. This hive has the ability to reconfigure its collective brain synaptic connections at will to shine in different areas of expertise.

Provides the Research Focus policy to focus and redirect the collective's priorities between Society, Physics and Engineering research.

Mycelium connection

The hive has a deep connection with space itself, it is interlinked with the very fabrics of space and can somewhat communicate with it
