The only realistic way to do this is to ban technological development through occupation. But this doesn’t make much sense when you can turn occupied territories into allies or colonies. It is possible to make a bird weapon, but for now it is impossible even in theory.
What is a “bird weapon”?
just do the anti-societal prions I made up a while ago. They’re really dumb and impractical compare to wiping the planet out of reality but they would stop progress
perhaps there could be a species which doesn’t want another one to develop but at the same time it doesn’t find it nice to completely eradicate them so it opts for this “stupidity prions” option?
The Dyson Combat Sphere can be used to defend the star system it is in by simply burning any fleets and projectiles that enter the system to interstellar dust.
Small features can be added, such as having a table of the number of souls killed appear on the screen after the superweapon is used, along with a sound, and creepy music will play where the superweapon is used.
what do you mean by “souls”?
By “souls” I meant intelligent organisms
What sort of superweapons could you make once you have ascended? Planet-sized monsters?
In fact, ascension itself is a super weapon because it gives omnipotence.
Would descension be the destruction of this superweapon then?
