ESSS | Extra Starting Star Systems

Extra Starting Star Systems [Referred to as ‘ESSS’ in the future] is a mod that adds 9 starting star systems to the game.

ESSS supports English, Polish and Russian localisation.

ESSS adds following star systems:

A planetary system in the orbit of small black hole.

A solar system that was recently spat out of a massive psionic storm.

A solar system that once beheld a massive space battle the scars of which can still be seen today.

A solar system with a massive asteroid field formed from the debris of multiple cracked worlds.

A five-star home system.

Guaranteed Worlds moved to your home system for convenience.

Guaranteed Worlds are replaced with terraforming candidates within your home system. You get 2 terraforming candidates per each guaranteed world.

Your homeworld is a whopping 50-size planet. Guaranteed worlds will not spawn.

Your home system is starless. Instead, you find your planet orbiting a massive gas giant in interstellar space.

A home system formed out of heavy, dense metals. This would come in useful in future expansion.

These are star systems, not origins. Therefore, you can pick them with origins that do not replace your start system. It is possible, for example, to have a start on a size-50 Relic World if you were to pick Massive Planet Unary and Remnants origin.

Massive thanks to Discord user Ironwall for proofreading Polish translation of the mod.

Be aware that due to sheer amount of various origins, civics, ethics, species traits, etc. that Stellaris has, not every single combination of these has been tested. Expect unintended behaviour. Especially with the Massive Planet start.
