Lesigh human double standards. Maybe i should start putting points into Null bombs.

*Has amended post, seems i've accidentally decided to play the game on hard difficulty*

Actually, I'm a little shocked Dark Hellion feels that way; after all, the Syndicalists are sworn enemies of the Imperial order.

Darkevilme · Post by **Darkevilme** » 2008-06-16 03:31pm

At any rate how many points it to build a starsystem/or planet eating bomb? you know just as insurance.

You're a human enemy of the Empire. Darkevil's a xeno enemy of humanity. It's all about priorities. We can kill you second.

Well I"m working on writing up my OOB and have some of it up now and hopefully the rest will be up tonight. I plan on locating my nation far from anyone else (and paying the barbarian points necdesay to do so) but the human factions closest to me are going to be important, as those are the ones that the militarists want to attack to relclaim lost territory. So, who wants to be close to me

?

Also, The Melconian Star Empire (who can tell me what universe that name comes from?) would be looking really hard at an alliance with the Camaran Exedus. Us aliens got to stick tgether against human agression after all.

Hmm we should talk sometime indeed.
What sort of appearance do the Melconian ships have?
General Aesthetics and colourscheme would be nice. I try to make sure i've done one ship for each star nation.

Details such as ship types and appearance are all being worked out. The Melconians generally follow the brutally efficient design philosophy for their ships though.

So slabs of armour, big guns and angular edges yes? Ancient brown metal a good colourscheme for you?

typing from work...

Dark What in Blue bklazes are you doing? Disengaging? Leaving me high and dry? for the love of mercy where are you going?

Darkevilme · Post by **Darkevilme** » 2008-06-16 05:31pm

One half of the fleet, you've fighting 500 points with 1000 ish points of your fleet and 690 points of second fleet helping. What do we have to hold your hands as well so you dont get scared? you outnumber them 3 to 1 gawds. And first fleets drones and guided munitions are with you as well, for what they're worth.

Edit: Melusine is going to stop the pitterpatter of bombs on Quixa just so ya know. Although come to think of it 690 points of ships was a bit much for that, last edit i swear to god. I'm sending amore reasonable force to quixa.

Thirdfain · Post by **Thirdfain** » 2008-06-16 05:36pm

I'll have had hours to bomb the place; even if citadels are still left standing, pretty much everything else is gonna be a real mess.

Darkevilme · Post by **Darkevilme** » 2008-06-16 05:37pm

Bombarding with a paltry force. They have shields for the cities so its taking a lot of effort for them to destroy them....the biosphere such as it was is probably seven shades of stomped on by now though.

Darkevilme · Post by **Darkevilme** » 2008-06-16 05:42pm

Just to addendum this is the serious callers only clause. Had you sent 400 points of ships to a 4 point world you'd be home for tea by now.

And the post has been edited, sorry for the mess but i'm not having Retcons result in unbelievalbe stupid/crazyness on the Chamarans part. A single squadron of cruisers is going to Quixa now.

Crossroads Inc. · Post by **Crossroads Inc.** » 2008-06-16 05:51pm

see this is why i shouldn't read and type whil at work... if I had just waited i would have read this whole thing in its entierty uinstead of getting snippets at a time.

Raj Ahten · Post by **Raj Ahten** » 2008-06-16 09:03pm

Well I've got my OOB posted through my navy (except for system patrol craft, which are being bought as improved defenses for a couple of planets.)

Thirdfain · Post by **Thirdfain** » 2008-06-17 11:53am

When there's little chance the world will ever be of use to you, and when it's inhabitants face a fate worse than death anyways, it opens up a whole new field of opportunities for the cruel and ruthless.

Darkevilme · Post by **Darkevilme** » 2008-06-17 12:08pm

Thanks for the inspiration Third as to what to do when 1st cruiser squadron gets there.

Thirdfain · Post by **Thirdfain** » 2008-06-17 12:21pm

Oh, there's ways to deal with the orbiting death. I'll teach those to you as well

Holy crap, this thing's alive again? Why didn't somebody tell me?

Time to get this party started!

Rogue 9 only just noticed? Clearly we must have bigger and louder wars Thirdfain.

Welcome back Rogue.

Got a question for you all: about when should I start posting about my factions actions? Once my faction description is completed in the OOB? Should I declare what my construction is for this coming turn?

Dark Hellion · Post by **Dark Hellion** » 2008-06-17 05:15pm

Stick yourself wherever, if there is a problem we can fix it before you become active. You can also build your six hundred points if you want. It'll be a good reason for you to come off the reservation.

I think you could probably just put the additional ships into your OOB since you weren't around during turn one, and therefore aren't really adding points to an already extant fleet, rather you start with a fleet of x size and it's just assumed you've been busy in your own patch of space. (so like other factions who haven't lost a planet, you would now have a fleet of 2,600 points...I could be wrong about this though)

On that note, I'd like to ask if we're expected to amend our OOBs to reflect what has happened during the previous turn. Additionally I'd like to ask that anyone who hasn't posted a list of planets/stations/bases in their OOB do so between now and turn two...it's kind of hard to decide what to do when I don't even know where I can send ships.

Alright I'll put in six hundred points into the OOB for last turn, try and finish it up, and perhaps even post something in the main thread today. Diplomacy mostly.

Edit:
Here is what I purchased on turn one if we decide to let me do that:
2 Admiral Voth Class Cruisers 54pts.
2 Echo Station Class Light Cruisers 42pts
2 Spirit class Destroyers 20pts
6 Captain N'tan class Destroyers 180pts.
4 Council Class Cruisers 180pts.
2 Emperor II Class battleships 110pts.
For a total of 586pts.

Something else I really need to know before I get started is where the Meconian Star Empire is located. My basic strategic goal would be to retake the Melconian homelands (or at least part of them) so which human faction controls them would be really imporatant. Any volunteers?
