[OOC] This galaxy isn't yours! (On hiatus)

[Wernher]

What map?

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

Ssh, just humour him.

[Sophrus]

I wanna be here ish

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

Suck at Web stuff, but the Xythae Empire would be in the bottom right corner, a bit in from the edge.

[Legion02]

My preferred area. Considering the Relicants are pretty isolated, I'll confine them to their home planet of Relica.

@Wernher The map that failed to upload for some reason.

@Ozerath, @rush99999, @ClocktowerEchos, @mattmanganon
So, I'd mention you guys, seeing that we are close to start (Friday/Saturday), and you still haven't presented an NS, or completed the ones you made. No rush, we've plenty to start (I hope so), but I'd like to know if we can see those works of art getting done in the near future.
@Legion02, maybe I just didn't find it, but do you have the NS ready? I think the last thing I got from you was a history and the basic concept. @Pyromaniacwolf You can add your NS into the CS tab, and finish it later if you want to.

I am fairly certain thats all. We'we raked more interest than I anticipated, which is really good on one hand, but makes my job of sorting and remembering all these way harder. So I wish we all updated the map, and then add the NS to the CS tab, even if nothing more than just the name so I can make a list for myself and others in the opening OOC.

Thanks :D

@6slyboy6 NS Isn't online yet. YET! I'm still fine-tuning in hopes of making them as unique and balanced as possible. If you really want, I can send (over PM) you the draft but I don't really like putting my half-completed NSes up.

[rush99999]

@6slyboy6

I'm afraid I won't actually be able to join this RP. I've bitten off more role plays than I can chew, so I have to cut a few now. This 1 included. Sorry about that.

Peace out home fries!

How fast is ftl tech here? From one side of the galaxy to the other for example. And btw, if this is an issue I vote we all follow the same ftl rules.

[6slyboy6]

@Legion02 I'd be grateful if you could send me the NS in a PM. Maybe I can help fine tune it and stuff :D

@Wernher Very good point.

A general rule of thumb with FTL in my opinion is that FTL means 1C to infinite times light speed. So when we talk about an FTL, I like to go with the good old hyperspace or warp techs. Hyperspace lanes are basically system to system connecting the neighbouring stars together. Warp is in system FTL, short range jumps to manouver from planet to planet quickly.

There is no real scale here, if we wanted to emulate any kind of system, we would first have to understand how massive a galaxy is. So lets just say that going from the Capital to Relica, it would take a good week.

Alternatively we could use warp gates, which I adore. This would make ship based travelling faster, and could cover MUCH larger distances. But it'd be too easy for me to just camp them and lock everyone down, which I want to avoid cause its no fun for anyone.

[Sophrus]

@6slyboy6

How much controll would the hyperlanes give us? eg: could we drop from the hyperlane near the planet? or near an enemy fleet? or does it automatically drop us at the outer edge of the system.

and i would be fine with the jump gate thing but it does grant you a serious advantage that could be worked around but is still an issue.

[Ozerath]

@6slyboy6 As things stand I have two half completed sheets. I'm sort of stuck between my love of ancient psychic aliens and brutally pragmatic monarchies. Any preference on your end?

[NecroKnight]

@6slyboy6

I shall be located here.

[Sophrus]

Everyone is so far away from me :(

lol so much for a united front.

Also, what is the feeling of the other empires towards our evil lovely overlords?

[Pyromaniacwolf]

@6slyboy6 i'll move my NS into the character tab an I should have the personalities written up by Sunday at the very latest, although probably Saturday.

@Sophrus Do not worry, the Revghul monarchy will be to your south and we shall purge the humans from our empires! ...Yeah my race doesn't like the humans...

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

@Pyromaniacwolf the Xythae Empire will join you in routing this false Emperor from his seat of arrogance.

[Sophrus]

@Sophrus Do not worry, the Revghul monarchy will be to your south and we shall purge the humans from our empires! ...Yeah my race doesn't like the humans...

@Pyromaniacwolf

Buahahahaha. Very good. I think we will compliment eachother pretty well too.

[Ryteb Pymeroce]

Daenizens: what we lack in firepower we make up for with huge ships.

[Wernher]

@Sophrus Hehehe

[6slyboy6]

@6slyboy6 As things stand I have two half completed sheets. I'm sort of stuck between my love of ancient psychic aliens and brutally pragmatic monarchies. Any preference on your end?

@Ozerath

Why not both lol. We already have a monarchy (le GM) and we also have psychics. Just roll a dice haha

@Sophrus Hyperlanes are charted routes between systems. Their end point is pretty much set, but you cannot trace a fleet if they are in hypersapce. So you need to eb at tehe xact ocation to catch a fleet. Plus the end destination can vary a few hundered kilometers, but thats just enough to nearly avoid an enemy fleet if you already knew that they'd be there when you made the jump. Of course, thats still within detection range.
