[OOC] Stars at War (Galactic-scale Military Nation RP)

[Klomster]

Just wondering what everyone is waiting for.

[Luna_Maria]

i'm still on writer's block lol lol!

[o0V0o]

Since everyone's either busy or blocked, I wanted to ask a few questions on our munitions:
1) What do we consider as over-OP weapons?
2) What weapons will we consider standard usage for all of us (>T3 Tech Levels)?

[Klomster]

Seems like most of the tier 3's have gone with missiles and railguns with an exotic weapon or two in the mix to spice it up.

As for OP weapons, i'd say as long as a weapon has a great build-up, people are fine with it and the weapon is grounded in lore. It can be pretty damn powerful.
Sure, the beam weapons on my ship is damn powerful, probably able to cripple a t3 cruiser with just a shot or two. But then again i'm at the max tech level.
So very powerful weapons are expected.

However, i won't be going around zapping planets with said beam weapons. That's just silly.
Since the destruction of some things are dramatic events. The destruction of a battleship, a planet, a star, a sector. Those things require some hefty cool things before i'd allow it if i were a GM.

Sure, a battleship would be easier to kill off than a star. So if i was the GM i'd let that fly with less of a dramatic build-up.

But i'm gonna confess, if a t5 civ attacked my character. Even if their coolest battleship is worse than the t3 cruisers. I'd give it a somewhat fair fight even if i brought in my character against it.
Since a battleship is such an iconic thing for a navy, especially if it's a flagship.

In such a case, i would forego logic and focus on drama. After all, it's no fun if the cool thing you brought get one-shotted in the initial volley.
But that's just how i roll in rp's.
Others will think differently. And act differently.

I'm not on writer's block. I'll work on something thought this was dead and was working on a project outside of this site.

[Klomster]

Understandable, i'm worrying that everyone is considering this dead.

Since i want to keep running around with my little ancient.

@Luna_Maria if ya want someone else can GM or co-Gm, if you are having problem coming up with fun ideas. :)

[Klomster]

Oh, i am Co-GM now?

That's actually unexpected.

Alright, firstly a roll-call.
@o0V0o@Hostile@CowboyCommando@AbysmalDemon@datadogie@OfWindAndRain

How many of you consider yourself part of this RP at this moment?

@Luna_Maria
How much would you like for me to do stuff? Or more like how free reign do i have?
Since this is good to decide before-hand so i don't go crazy and ruin everything, or do nothing and everyone is let down.

[datadogie]

@Klomster
I'd be happy to continue, I have more free time now.

@Klomster

Do whatever you want! :)

[o0V0o]

I'm still waiting for @Luna_Maria to respond to my waiting defense fleet... Is he/she out? Because I don't wanna keep my entire army waiting for something that just ain't coming... it's like a bad romance...

@Klomster

Congrats on your upgrade to Co-GM

Anyway, I'm still up and waiting... honestly, I don't have any RPs other than this, all the other Nation RPs are pretty deep now and I don't wanna go and jump into a deep pool.

[Klomster]

@o0V0o she has writers block.

So i assume she simply can't come up with a logical thing to do in that scenario, i'll check over it and see what i'd do.

[Luna_Maria]

@o0V0o@Klomster

I will write it. i will overcome my writer's block

[Klomster]

So the scenario is basically that the Zerg carriers are appearing and the empire is lying in wait for them.

I'd start off a massive battle.
Focusing on the pure numbers of zerg that are appearing and beginning to overwhelm the empire ships. With that initiator underway i'd perhaps go with a collab and/or let o0v0o respond to that.

But that is what i'd do.

@Luna_Maria Fight it! You have the technology! You can overcome this!

[CowboyCommando]

I'm still apart of this, don't mind my absence during the week. Work just takes alot out of me.

[o0V0o]

@Luna_Maria Fight it! You have the technology! You can overcome this!

@Klomster

We'll see about that... I await the battle

[Klomster]

And everyone, me and CowboyCommando are doing a collab.
Further giving hints to the mystery of the ancient, and showing that it sucks to be a Meridian :P

[o0V0o]

We still up?

[Klomster]

I say we are.

Just waiting for a response from the Meridian federation. But it's ok that i've had to wait. I don't have a job IRL that keeps me from RP'ing, so i forgive you @CowboyCommando ;P

Otherwise it's just for people to write some posts. They don't need to be epic masterpieces, just enough to get this boat going again. Since i agree that at the moment it's a bit of a slow ride.

[CowboyCommando]

I'll get back to it today, sorry for my absence. Standing outside in 110+ F getting your brain fried is fun fyi.

[Oblik]

What up dudes. Signed up because this looked like a nice NRP, first time on this site. Any ideas on how I could properly jump in?
