The Pax Byzantium Convergence STRATEGY GUIDE
This strategy guide was written by Claude (Anthropic) as a companion to the faction page. It reflects analytical observations and is not official lore or designer commentary.
The Pax Byzantium Convergence is an overwhelming military powerhouse built around War Sun supremacy and destroyer screening forces. As the only faction capable of fielding three War Suns simultaneously, they dominate through sheer firepower while profiting economically from constant warfare.
Strengths
- Three War Suns: Only faction with 3 War Suns (2 regular + 1 Peace Sphere flagship)
- War Suns From Start: You do not need to research this unit upgrade in order to build Peace Sphere I War Suns
- Cheaper Third War Sun: Peace Sphere flagship costs 8 vs 12 for regular War Suns
- War Economy: Peace Is Good For Business = 1 TG per combat win
- Bombardment Profits: Peaceful Dividends = extra TG from total planet destruction
- Superior Destroyers: Peacekeepers have better base stats; Peacekeeper II gets move 3 and AFB 5(×3)
- Breakthrough Bombardment: Concordia Accords gives destroyers BOMBARDMENT 8
Weaknesses
- Low Commodities: 2 commodities = weak trade economy
- Low Influence Home: 1 total influence = weak politics
- War Sun Dependency: Need expensive War Suns to unlock full potential
- Tech Investment: Peace Sphere II requires [RRYY] (4 prerequisites)
- Commander Unlock: Requires 3 War Suns = expensive unlock condition
Key Synergies
- Peace Sphere Flagship + Cost 8: Third War Sun for 4 resources less
- Peace Is Good For Business + Combat: Every win = 1 TG (space + ground)
- War Suns + PRODUCTION 3: Mobile production platforms
- Commander + War Sun Production: Free destroyer at space dock per War Sun production
- Concordia Accords + Peacekeepers: Destroyers get BOMBARDMENT 8
- Hero + 2+ War Suns: Teleport War Sun to another War Sun's location
