You know what to do.

Now that's a good idea!  ;D

Pablo will have some good fun making those, heh.

Is the lack of a "you lose" taunt intentional? Seems odd that there isn't one.

FS defence fund deployment.              "Didn't think it would be that easy, did you?"           
FS exogalactic transciever activation.   "Alerting central processing"
Killing an irreplaceable.

Hmm, that's actually an interesting oversight.  Don't know why I didn't think of that!

Maybe one for when you've gone from (multiple planets) to 1 again?

"Pathetic."  "Sector Cleared."  "Creators Erased."  "Resistance is Futile." could all work for game loss. 

Edit: "Checkmate." It's a classic for a reason.

This might be slightly to cheesy to do in an ominous voice: "Obey gravity, it's the law." - when the AI wipes your raid starships/transports in the presence of a gravity drainer.
"Nuisance Suppressed" - Player homeworld eliminated.

Guardpost or regular announced (counter)wave hitting an undefended planet: "Are you even paying attention?"

I like 'Checkmate'.

Possibly also 'No.' for when you lose a numerically superior force (but sorta rubbish in comparison otherwise, like a big chunk of MkIs thrown at something with not much support)

If you reach the AI homeworld, the first time it releases its "mega response" (startegic reserve, fallen spire response fund, whatever) of a sufficiently large strength AND out strengths the fleet you are attacking with,
"Enough of this foolishness". One time only per game.


Also, figure out why the "failed attack suite" of taunts don't seem to be playing often.

When you lose a Command Station: "Tedious"

AI loses a planet: "Insignificant."
AI launches an exo/superweapon: "We do not experience fear. But we understand how it affects you." (possibly bad, since Legion in Mass Effect says something akin that)

Once AIP passes some threshold (or perhaps when a large AIP increase is triggered). Or maybe when launching a massive superweapon as a response to AIP.

"You have my attention."

When destroying an irreplaceable (except an ARS):

"Did you forget your backups?"
"Your sacrifice is acknowledged"

When gaining firepower superiority on a player homeworld:
"Oh hello there."
"Is this the hole you dwell in?"
"Check."

I haven't got a good one, but how about some for a really successful tractor raid? I.e., activating a raid engine with ships tractored off a player world.

I just imagined that last comment in the deep voice of the AI voices.... I'm a little creeped out now.

When you defeat the AI, sometimes it should say: "I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe..."

"Because you could not stop for death, I kindly stopped for thee..."
