You agree to the Esaal's deal. Trade for a trade!
They give you some very useful information. Beyond the escape routes used by the Aristocrats, something the Esaal very desperately wanted during their own war to stop them from slipping away, you also learn their battle tactics. As it turns out, these proto-Hazaar are very defensively minded, mostly caring about retaking lost planets. It seems that the Aristocrat reinforcement numbers will be evenly split among all sectors you have conquered planets within, attacking the capitals if you own them, otherwise attacking the weakest planet you control, denying you access to a bridge to deep strikes into their territory if you can't hold it. Also, as a rule, it seems the outlying secondary clusters on the edge of Aristocrat space will never have an attempt to retake them once captured; preferring much more to retain the dignity of the main Aristocrat ideals. We can hopefully use this information to our advantage, and that's it worth whatever the Esaal ask of us in the future to repay it.
In the meantime, you are busy doing administrative study and optimization of your first attack fleet, especially to improve future waves. You scratch a persistent itch in your side, yawning.
"Ugh... I'm tired. Staying up late to do these battle calculations is so exhausting."
"You may rest whenever you wish, your Majesty."
"But we could make our attack forces so much more efficient! Not to mention, I need to oversee scavenging and sanitizing any destroyed fleet components and reuse them for the next one; could really boost Fleet power. Actually, Threes, why don't you synthesize me some caffeine?"
"...Really? Like what the Consortium does to extract excess value from its expendable workforce."
"Hello? Supreme Ruler here! If I'm not busying myself with that, I'd have to work on some cultural renovations.... yuck."
"You could boost efficacy of our future attack fleets by... two and a half percent. I believe this is a more optimal use of your limited time, your Majesty."
>Study after-battle results & optimize future fleets (+5 Fleet Power for future attack waves)
>Update an element of Hegemonic culture (Change any artistic aspect of the Hegemony's designs; like ships, space stations, uniforms, colors, etc. write-in only)
