The New Traditions - Githubissues

With the introduction of 5 new Tradition Categories (for a total of 12) and Orbitals, combining the different unifiable categories together, a lot of flavour and/or themes must be explored and expanded upon if we want to justify this amount of extra stuff.

Introducing the Tradition Web, a wheel much like the Government Ethics wheel with on opposing sides ununifiable Traditions -- i.e., these Traditions will never group up together in higher Orbitals.

Here is the full list of Traditions and their thematic, including how they behave when grouped into the higher Orbitals, effectively creating new Traditions Categories from the amalgamation of the two:

ORBITAL 1:

X: Expansion We must spread our civilization to new systems and planets or risk eventual extinction.
- reaching for the stars, expanding the empire, colony development and pop growth speed
H: Harmony Few things can match the strength of a content populace working towards a common goal.
- inward perfection, lifespan, happiness, unity, Governing Ethics attraction up
D: Diplomacy The surest way to destroy your enemies is to make them your friends.
- reaching out to neighbouring empires, market fee down, Federation
Y: Discovery Our curiosity about the universe is what got us this far, and there is still so much left to discover.
- science, anomaly research speed, survey speed, leader experience
B: Submission We could learn much from those who are stronger than we are. Let their strength be our strength.
- bonuses for if you are another Empire's subject, foreign relations with Fallen Empires, path to Vassalisation by FE, War in Heaven
I: Industry Through the toil of our machines and the sweat of our labour force, we will lift ourselves high up onto our pedestal in the stars.
- Specialist output up, building upkeep down
L: Coalition Consolidating our assets and strengthening our borders will ensure our survival against any outsiders who would seek our ruin.
- bonuses to defence armies, build speed up, Starbase cost down, Starbase upgrade speed up
C: Chaos All that is living is in motion. Stagnation is the bane of progress. To thrive, we must embrace change, and the voice of the many.
- anarchy, Worker/Slave political power up, Worker/Slave output up, Governing Ethics shift chance up, Governing Ethics attraction down
S: Supremacy The future of this galaxy belongs to those who are strong enough to seize it.
- Ship/Army Build Speed, Fire Rate
O: Solipsism We can only rely on ourselves. Whatever chatter is out there might not even be real. Our own survival is paramount.
- Pop Growth speed, local industry buffs
M: Domination If we do not impose our will on others, they will inevitably impose theirs on us.
- Vassals, Influence
P: Prosperity There is no better indicator of the success or failure of a star nation than the strength of its economy.
- raw resource output up, trade value up

ORBITAL 2:

X/H --> N: Naturalism Be one with the elements and the paradoxical balance between seemingly opposing forces. Yin and yang.
- ???
H/D --> U: Utalitarianism What is good for the whole outweighs what is right for the individual.
- ???
D/Y --> F: Fellowship To eliminate the differences that cause friction between us, our friends and ourselves must seek a more meaningful bond as one.
- Trust cap up, Research speed bonus from agreements up, pop growth from immigration up
Y/B --> Q: Inspiration We walk in the footsteps of great ancestors. We must embrace the path they forged before us.
- FE tech, Dark Matter Power, Special Resource Generation from Dark Matter
B/I --> V: Communism The differences between you and me are an illusion. All power is in the hands of the collective.
- ???
I/L --> E: Exploitation If we do not utilise what we have to the fullest, why should we deserve any more? We must refine and perfect what is ours.
- ???
L/C --> T: Taoism Panta rhei; be one with the ever-changing tides. You cannot see the way, but you can move with its rhythm.
- ???
C/S --> R: Reaverdom The individual must show strength to grasp power. Only those who can sustain themselves above all else will rise from the ashes.
- raiding, berserkrgangr armies, piracy
S/O --> G: Egotism We do not need to rely on others to give us strength. We shall show the galaxy what it means to be an unshakeable bastion, and we shall do so alone.
- Strong-Alone bonuses (if no diplomatic treaties other than non-aggression pacts), Starbase damage up, Starbase upgrade speed up
O/M --> Z: Centralisation Our subjects are a great asset, but we will ensure that all power flows inwards, back to us. A strong, centralised government is the key to keeping a multi-faceted empire stable.
- Vassals' Naval Cap Bonuses, Admin Cap, Subject Integration Cost down
M/P --> K: Capitalism To prosper in life means to exert your power over those who do not show the will to seize it. Power breeds power, an unstoppable force.
- Strategic Resource exploitation
P/X --> A: Appropriation We see the land before us and envision all that it could become under our guiding hand. To leave it by the wayside would be a waste of precious resources.
- Tile Blockers, Mining Station Resource Output up
