@Hammerman

I was here early, I just didn't pick as greatly as I'd thought...

[Red Alice]

@Lmpkio
Vader looks fine so far, I'll assign his TR in a little bit.

@Zarkun

get the battle-star people to help you. with your forces combined you have a grand total of 2 battleships which are both smaller than and have a lower tech level than star-destroyers.

this is all assuming the empire dos not take that water spot and become a traditional navy.

a bit like this

Woah I just realized that we now have two battleships on the map. Well shit...

@Thecrash20

Technically we have the Galactica AND a small fleet of Battlecruisers. The Hyperion has an escort of two at all times.

[Nerdy Reference]

Not to put ideas in your head, Crash, but sneak a couple Genestealers on board and you could easily neutralize and/or take over a battleship or two. Corner a couple crewmen and let nature take its course.

@Lmpkio
Isn't that my territory?

@Hammerman

The very top left dark green area? I don't see you taking residence in it?

lol ah I remember.

[Hammerman]

@Lmpkio
Oh, you mean over there? Yeah, it's empty. No node though.

[Red Alice]

@Lmpkio
You'll want to start on one of the open Nodes, or "Starter Nodes"

@Red Alice

Alright... then the greyish blue area. The Riverlands I think?

[DracoLunaris]

current claim map

I think that is everyone in a position now, baring our nomad, stealth, and underground factions. plus our lonely ghost and the wee group of pirates

[Lmpkio]

Also, I also ask what the Nodes are actually capable of doing. I forgot to ask that question some time ago.

[Red Alice]

@Lmpkio

Read the first OOC post stuff, it'll give you a run down on stuff like this.

@Lmpkio

Understandable. Could happen to anyone. The opening post with all of the rules is a whole 10 pages away after all, I can see how you might have forgotten about it. (Please read it though, Red worked so hard on it)

@Black Alice

Please.

@Black Alice

Right. I see it now. I was looking at the wrong parts of the main OCC.

The most important of all Mega-Structures are the Nodes. They produce specialized materials not native to this world, allow small and limited gates to your home universe, and can be modified or used in a myriad of ways depending on the capabilities and intentions of your faction. Nodes can be upgraded, but the best way to make use of Nodes is to have more. Having a high number of nodes may allow you to take special actions, such as creating continent sized energy barriers to protect your faction from orbital bombardment. Nodes have have unlimited power but limited output, and they can be interfaced with magick, technology, or anything inbetween. They are intimately connected with the stations core.

Ah perfect. Then they might just stay here to conquer this world. I know what to write.

@Nerdy Reference

Oh, trust me. I thought about it with every single faction. Genestealers can infiltrate any sentient species so they would work with all but the dummy faction in here. The thing is, the whole espionage thing isn't a part of the fighting here(that I know of). I didn't want to try to make it harder on Red by doing it. Unless I could @Red Alice?

Although they are deadly in close quarter places like Space Hulks and I'm sure of Empire ships... I got something to add I guess.

@Thecrash20

Missile towers and other StarCraft detectors would detect them considering from what I know of the Genestealers, they function similar to a Zerg Changeling. Good luck, mate :)

EDIT: I'm not sure how missile turrets do it, biometric scanners I think.

[Red Alice]

@Thecrash20

It's very easy to infect and infiltrate with a genestealer cult here, but they're really slow. It'd need generations to really become especially effective.
