Yo scotsman, long time no see =)

Yeah you're doomed.

I'm here now :P

Need to sleep, work tomorrow. Then will work on my nation, Sythe how about having them in a system near where your guys are currently chilling at?

Interested!
Just curious, I was musing over a 'nation' idea.
Something akin to a hotpot of different species and ships, somewhat nomadic(They live in their ships, planets are for R&Rs)
Basically, the assorted bunch had come together as a multitude of different situations. Some are fugitives, some are mercenaries(if they weren't, they have to be now to make a living :P), and some are governmental figures who were kicked out by revolutions. Just...a really, really varied bunch.

Something along the lines of "Kicked out from everywhere else? Welcome home!" or the like.

Well, it's definitely not going to have much in way of capital ships. Largest is most likely a destroyer, and two frigates. Everything else is populated by a mix-matched variety of customized fighters XD

Interested. I might port over my other application from Andromeda, though I'm considering running an entirely new nation.

Do I need to remind you of the multiple shit-tier and godmod apps you let in?

That'd be fun to see, especially with the "exiled leaders" idea. I'm just imagining them bickering over different extremist ideologies!

ASTA! Don't go around doing that kind of thing! Do you how much ER visits cost in the US? Third-degree burns will bankrupt a man!

Sounds liek a plan unless GM has other ones =P

I'll probably get the initial part of my sheet up during lunch at work, however a twin planet system is on my mind.

Tidal force destruction galore xD

Tidal force destruction galore xD

I wasn't thinking THAT close together :P

I got a couple of ideas species wise.

Tell me, is there anything off the table?

If you explain it and it follows the rules, it's all good

I think I might be interested, Keyguy.

Alliance of Nine

The Alliance is nine is a coalition of what were once nine nations based upon the worlds Triton and Alara. The flag and stars are based upon the Star of Alara which was a long standing religious symbol before the destruction of Alara at the hands of an unknown advesary. Before this happened the people of Triton and Alara were warring people, not just between worlds but between continents on those worlds. Now such squabbles are a thing of the past. Individual nation names have been removed with the knowledge that there are beings out there with deadly capability who seem willing to use it, despite how safe they may feel when their star system is surrounded by strange mists.

I plan for them to be a semi-advanced race. Space flight capabilities however still using kinetic weapons on ships and land based systems, more or less "Pressed" into an arm race. If someone wants to take claim for being the unknown invaders or if we can say they're long gone for whatever reason that's fine with me.

What do you think Key? I can tweak it to remove the Alara destruction but I kinda had plot and funstuff figured out on that line. On a technote they will be EXPERIMENTING with shields but won't actually have shielding or FTL yet.

Superheavy WIP. Wouldn't have posted it, except that my computer's derping and I really need to restart.

Name of nation:
United Superpowers of the Homeworld Treaty Alliance, or USHTA, or Ushtah.

Species: Sidris, Sidrisian

The Sidris are sensitive, warm-blooded creatures of avian structure. Double-spine structure, reinforced bone structure, but bones are all hollow. They show more similarities to avians than to reptiles, besides their pebbly, reptillian skin. They are creatures that are hardy, because of their regenerative properties- where another race loses movement and senses below a point when their spine is broken, a Sidris has two spines, which both decreases flexibility and increases back strength. That, and their spine can regenerate. Their skin is leathery, not thick, nor soft. Metabolism forces all but the most determined to be thin and wiry, with very, very few showing any signs of real overweight.

Description of government:
Sectional Democratic-Republic, set in tiers depending on community->region->area->state->Collection->Planet->System->Universal.
At this point, the Ushtuh has yet to completely dominate the planet, so the five superpowers of the planet (among 35 smaller nations, from chain-island states to Australia-sized countries) are in a council of sorts who vote and decide on what they want. Every five suncycles, they vote in a new 'President' from the one of the other four superpowers- one superpower can't hold President for more than one term in a row.

Description of military:
Water and air-based. The planet they live on, Zeme Rutulys, or just Zeme, is primarily oceanic continents. Large islands, small islands, chain islands, that sort of thing. Three islands are as big as Russia; four as big as Australia, three as big as America, and then chain islands throughout. There is only one major ocean, which sits in the middle of the Eastern Hemisphere. The planet they are on is also what humans would consider a superplanet, being about 1.5x larger than Earth, with a less dense core and mantle, meaning less gravity to be just about Earth normal, at 1.2Gs.

Because of the conditions above, the high-buoyancy of the atmosphere allows jets and the like to be larger than the Earth normal, and therefore, more powerful. On the water, the ships are, on average, bigger than humanity's normal, each basic assault ship being at least 1.5x larger. Aircraft carriers are up to three times larger than humanity's, though they number slightly less.

In space, there is a significant focus on a naval/air-force type force, with most military ships being a droneship or a battlecarrier. Currently, the majority of ships are civilian/commercial, while there are only two battlecarriers and four droneships, accompanied by a dozen frigates. Attack ship classes range from anti-capital corvettes, which are launched from battlecarriers. Corvettes are, for example, like the tank to the fighters/infantry. Next are the bombers, which are similar to the artillery for the fighters/infantry, and then there are electronic warfare and support ships, which are slightly larger than Corvettes, and act as a command and control ship in the field. They are mobile command centers are armed with more point defense than any of the other Corvette types.

Planetary defense currently consists of a different nation's space navy of a different type of battlecruiser and a battleship, both of, more or less, equal size

Also, for those with the ability to send ships into space, would you mind if I 'borrowed' a few of your fighter classes?
Considering that if your nation had the ability to break free from planetary gravitation well, I'm certain some of your fugitives/criminals/runaways have escaped. It's like border patrols, how you can't cover every exit!

Exactly how willing are your people to trade technology? Because I know of a nation that will want technology. Lots of it. Very quickly.

Extremely willing mostly.
Their a ragtag 'nation' built up from the 'leftovers' of other nations.
They'll do alot to survive. Even being tasked to retrieve tech from other nations is a contract some within may take up. As long as the reward is good, and includes the copy of the tech :3

Of course, other, ah, people might not want ragtag groups running around selling all their technology to anyone who gives a bid, and these, ah, parties might be interested in, ah, stopping that trade. Permanently.

If you try to exterminate the trading partners of the LSN, you will find yourselves in a war! Our worlds are backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

...

That's a scary thing, right? Why are you not scared? Why is that sword glowing? Wha- OH GOD MY ENTIRE LOWER BODY IS GONE

Note:Recent troubles in my IRL life have led to a delay in my app. I still plan to join and as the humans but for now it might be a bit.

Yup.
Frankly, the 'Nation' itself, is made of different 'countries', each with their own priorities.
And when I mean country, I mean nearly each damn pilot XD
