Chronicles of a Nation

There was once a great civilization that prospered. One day, however, their star exploded, destroying the entire system. The survivors were in four large colony ships, six capital ships, twenty-two frigates, and hundreds of fighters. Only five million people.

They roam the region of Deep Space, looking for a homeland, but so far they have only found violence and hostility. The Great Space Fleet wanders still to this day in that large, uncharted region.

One day, not too long ago, they came across a deserted fleet of ships. It was of a civilization far more advanced than ever known before to the Fleet.

"I think we need help to scout this massive fleet we have found," stated a commander. "I will send out a distress beakon. Hopefully someone can get to Deep Space quickly." And with that, the commander pressed a red button...

Today, the beakon has reached within range of space-faring nations.

[OOC: A fleet the size of the Great Space Fleet is not a godmod. Even though we are a new nation, my whole nation of five million is in that fleet; we have no homeland. You may ask where we could build it. We are the only survivors of a great civilization that built such great fleets.

Also, don't call me a n00b. This is a nation made by a roleplaying veteran, for the purpose of having a futuristic nation. However, you will never see me interact with my main nation because my main nation is in the modern era and this nation is in the future.]

*BEAKON*

The Xanthalian Republic, ever curious and eager to meet new reaces and nations, dispatches a diplomatic fleet (2 Andromeda class, 1 Super Andromeda class, and assorted transports and civilian craft) to the position of The Great Space Fleet. (E.T.A.: Not long.)

Plot Summary on Actual RP:

The Great Space Fleet has found an even greater fleet - which is abandoned. They have sent a beakon because they need help scouting it.

The Xanthalian Republic, ever curious and eager to meet new reaces and nations, dispatches a diplomatic fleet (2 Andromeda class, 1 Super Andromeda class, and assorted transports and civilian craft) to the position of The Great Space Fleet. (E.T.A.: Not long.)

TRANSMISSION (encrypted - auto unencrtypts when reaches destination)
We will welcome your diplomatic fleet. You must first tell us the discription of the fleet as there are many pirate vessles in this region of Deep Space. Also, we are currently scouting a strange fleet that is more advanced than ours, but is deserted. Help is wanted.
END OF TRANSMISSION

The Xanthalian fleet arrives at the position specified, a few thousand kilometers from both fleets. "This is IAS-01 of the Xanthalian Republic. We are here to open diplomatic relations with The Great Space Fleet."

The newly space faring nation of Rafale detected the Great Space Fleet on sensor arrays. Always willing to explore, a recon fleet consisting of the Flagship 'Silver Wolf', 2 Millenium Battle ships, and several supporting vessels was detached. ETA is 5.6 Days (NS days :)

DIRECT TRANSMISSION TO DIPLOMATIC FLEET
This is the GSF Hope, the main colony ship. You have permission to dock in hanger bay B2. Our leader will be waiting for your diplomats.
END OF TRANSMISSION

The GOU I'll Smack You One drifts in the vacuum, acting as a listening post for a small mining operation on an asteroid. It picks up the Great Fleet's Beakon, and after a short exchange with the mining operation's head, powers up engines and heads for the beakon's position....

"Acknowledged"
IAS-01 moves in to dock with the massive ship, the others stay outside.
Minutes later, IAS-01 has docked and it's crew are waiting for the airlocks to open.

One of the fighters scouting the fleet area found something strange drifting in space.

Uh... Guys. You should take a look at this.

Silver Wolf has come into sensor range of the Great Space Fleet. It detects other ships as well. Silver Wolf and the Battleships Hypirion and Ares Move close.

*To Ships of the The Great Space Fleet. We are here to assist you. we are going to send a shuttle over to unload diplomats after you give us the Go ahead.Hypirion,Ares and Silver Wolf have all detected faint energy signtiures coming from a nearby system. Pirates may be upon us soon.*

When the airlocks open, the crew of the IAS-01 are greeted by two messengers, who tell them to go to the bridge (command center) where the newly elected High Commander is. There, there the leaders of the Great Space Fleet are waiting for the meeting.

As a note, the intercom system within the ship is malfunctioning.

END OF TRANSMISSION

*The GOU shoots into the area (around 750,000km from the fleet), disengaging the FTL engines, but still going at a hefty speed. It powers towards the fleet, and heads straight past all the vessels at a fast pace, conducting scans of all the ships in the area. It loops around, falling back onto its path and heading back the way it came.

Satisfied that these are the vessels that sent out the beakon, the I'll Smack You One slows down to a crawl and transmits a message*

TRANSMISSION TO ALTARON
There is a deserted fleet we are scouting and there are pirates in the region. You may send diplomats to hanger bay B8.
END OF TRANSMISSION

*A small opening appears in the side of the GOU, and a tiny, 1 man shuttle floats out. It heads towards the Hope, and hanger B8.*

*The GOU powers and loads its weapons*

The Admiral sent along on the mission leads the diplomatic team to the command center of the GSF vessel. They arrive a few minutes later.

"Welcome, Xanthal diplomats," the High Commander says as he greats them. "Feel free to sit down on any seat at this conference table."

There are pirates hiding in the ruins of the abandoned fleet!

That was a transmission heard several minutes earlier. The transmission was done by a fighter, probably of the Great Space Fleet.

The diplomatic team is mostly Xanthalian, but there is a Human and two Than in it as well.
The Admiral herself is a dwarf. She makes a humorous sight, but she is intelligent, wise, and quick of mind; just as much or more so than any other Xanthalian Armada admiral. In fact, she is a top candidate for taking the seat of fleet admiral when Fleet Admiral Tirranis retired. With a practiced maneuver she lifts herself into the high chair and her team takes their seats as well.
"It is a singluar pleasure to meet you, sir. The Republic is always eager to meet new races."

"We are of a humanoid race," explained the High Commander. "We are, however, very different in some aspects. For instance, we all have black hair or dark brown hair, our average height is seven feet, and we have no belly buttons."

*The shuttle flies into the bay, and stops. Once the bay has been secured, a lone man in casual dress steps out, and says 'Hello!'*

OOC: We should have someone to play the pirates......

"Indeed? Did your people decend from Humanity?"

*The shuttle flies into the bay, and stops. Once the bay has been secured, a lone man in casual dress steps out, and says 'Hello!'*

As a note, the intercom system within the ship is malfunctioning.

"Indeed? Did your people decend from Humanity?"

"Yes. We are desendants from colonists from Earth," the High Commander replied. "We were living peacefully in a distant system and prospering until our star exploded. The people of the Great Space Fleet are the only survivors."

*The diplomat bows, and eventually finds his way to the bridge of the ship. He stumbles into the conference room, and, looking at all the people sat around, clears his throat and simply says "I hope I'm not too late!"*

"I see. My condolences for your loss. You know, if you would like a planet to call home, you are welcome to move your population to a Xanthalian planet. We are in the process of completing construction on a midsized inhabitable planet, we could replan development to house your people."

*The diplomat bows, and eventually finds his way to the bridge of the ship. He stumbles into the conference room, and, looking at all the people sat around, clears his throat and simply says "I hope I'm not too late!"*

"That would be appreciated. The people of the Great Space Fleet can't last forever in old ships."

EMERGENCY TRANSMISSION
Due to a large fleet of pirates in the area, we may have to relocate. We are also requesting help.
END OF TRANSMISSION

*The diplomat sits down, and introduces himself simply as 'Dave'.*

"So....what's going on?"

A large fleet comes into sight. It consists mainly of fighters, but it has three large capital ships with heavy firepower and numerous hanger bays.

Surrender your ships and we might let you live, their admiral said in a transmission.

[OOC: I got a pirate nation already (called Deep Space Pirates).]

Now, where were we?

"I will inform the government of your request. Would you like to sign a treaty of some kind as well?" The admiral pauses as a transmission from IAS-01 comes through. "Pardon the interruption admiral, but we have a problem. The fleet is reporting pirate presence."
"This is a diplomatic fleet, we are not equipped to fight. Tell the fleet to withdraw and call for Xanthalian warship reinforcements. We'll hold out inside this vessel."
"Yes Sir. Reinforcements should arrive within fifteen minutes. The fleet is withdrawing."
"Sorry about that... So, would you like to sign a treaty?"

IAS-01 remains docked inside the GSF mothership as the rest of the Xanthalian fleet retreats through a transdimensinal gateway.

[OOC: I got a pirate nation already (called Deep Space Pirates).]

Captin Oka: What are the readings First officer?

FO: The becon seems to have origanated from there sir. The senders seem to be under attack.

Oka: Open fire with the Ion cannons and disable the attackers. Then contact the sender.

Altaran: OOC: Loud today, aren't we?

The Devestator arrives some distance away from everything else going on. Captain Piett sends a transmission back to the Sarapin II Executive Tower:

"We have reached the beacon point. There seems to be a large space fleet here, along with a Xanthalian dimplomatic fleet, and an Altaran GOU. They seem to be investigating an advanced space fleet that was abandoned some time ago. We also detect a small fleet coming out of the debris field with unknown intentions."

Lee: Very well captain, continue to stay out of the action. Assist only when assistance is required of you.

Piett: Yes, prime minister.

OOC: This is more of a :tag: than anything, but if all of the necessary conditions are right, than I'll probably get more involved.

The TSP Wanderer was dispatched to investigate the beacon, unfortuneatly when they go there, the scene wasn't as anticipated...

On one side there was a massive derilict fleet with another active one coming out, and on the other, a large fleet with several colony ships, and a smattering of warships. No one was quite sure what was going on.

The wary Translator on board the ship sent a transmission:

This is the TSP Wanderer, a science ship that is part of the exploration branch of the Torontonias Space Program, we have been dispatched to investigate the beacon, could we be of any assistace, as we have a small assortment of armaments

The rest of the command crew waited nevously for the responce.

TRANSMISSION TO TSP WANDERER
This is the colony ship, the GSP Hope. The people of our fleet are the only people that survived from the destruction of our home system. We have been wandering the region of Deep Space looking for a new home.

When we discovered a derilict fleet, we sent a distress beakon because it is a common hideout for space pirates and because we needed help exploring it. Many nations followed the beakon and sent diplomat ships, but the pirates also followed the beakon.

We have three goals for the moment. 1) Salvage any useful technologies from the derilict fleet; 2) Make allies with other space-faring civilizations; 3) Defeat the Deep Space Pirates who are threatening us.
END OF TRANSMISSION

The FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks warps into the sector after hearing the beacon. Newly elected Supreme Chancellor Lance Johnson is on the bridge surveying the system.


SC Lance: What are we getting off sensors?
Science Officer: A large derelict ship..haven, I guess. Pretty much a junk yard. I'm reading all sorts of ships from different nations and worlds. What's that?

Good. I see you're recalling your fighters. With Froggyliciousness' large fleet, your ships wouldn't stand a chance. I'm happy we resolved this peacefully. Now, these derelicts don't belong to anyone, so if you claimed them first, their yours to use. But threatening a colony ship is just wacko.

On the bridge of the capital ship GSF Glory...

"Captain," a man behind a desk said. A beeping noise could be heard. "Sensors pick up a large fleet! The Deep Space Pirates are back! They have more ships!"

"We're picking up a transmission," shouted another man on the bridge.

"Play the message," replied the captain.

"This is the Pirate Command Vessel. Surrender your ships or be destroyed! We have our weapons powered!" boomed an evil voice over the intercom.

"Well," said the captian. "I guess this is going to be the same pathetic fleet and we can scare it off again. On screen!"

The screen turned on and on the screen several things were obvious. There were nine hive ships heading toward the Great Space Fleet on one side and on the other there was a huge ship, only a little bit smaller than the colony ships (the colony ships were very large). That huge ship was painted the shade of an asteroid and was escorted by several capital ships, a couple dosen frigates, and hundreds of fighters.

The captain pressed a button on his desk. This is the GSF Glory. Recall all ships and prepare for an emergency hyperspace of the fleet (Yeah. So I stole that idea from Homeworld: Cataclysm.) and an evacuation to the other side of the region. I repeat, prepare for an emergency hyperspace of the Great Space Fleet.

The fighters were docking and the frigates, capital ships, and colony ships were charging their hyperspace engines. They were preparing to retreat...

(OOC: Let's end this for the night. We all have to get off, and the pirates haven't posted their losses, so we can't really do anything yet. Why don't you make this RP closed, GSF?)

occ: alright I'm cool with waiting till morrow to find out what happens. BTW this is a cool RP so far.

Transmission back to the Executive Tower

Piett: Prime minister, there seems there is nothing we need to do here. We have been watching the action from back here, and a report is as follows:


The Great Space Fleet has found an advanced space fleet far beyond anything found in our technology tree
Deep Space Pirates are hiding in the debris field, waiting to ambush any fleet that comes within a few kilometers of them
However, the fleets of powerful nations such as Froggyliciousness have been able to drive the pirates off numerous times, therefore negating the need for our services.


In conclusion, I do not think we would gain anything from staying here. Instead, I suggest a withdrawl back to Earth orbit.

End Transmission

Carry on. Make the hyperspace jump as soon as you are ready.

*The GOU picks targets once again, mainly the pirate vessels. The ship is highly suspicious of the Hive vessels, and locks those ships into the computers as well. The ship sends off three simultaneous transmissions*

A ship's hyperspace signature could be picked up. It was from the center of Deep Space, in the area known as the Great System. In that system, the Holy Empire of the Great System ruled with an iron fist and the subjects were loyal.

An Imperial Navy Command Ship, came into view.

"This is the the EGS Fist," the captain said over a transmission. "We have come in response of the distress beakon. We are sorry we couldn't have come sooner. We are in the center of Deep Space and this issue is near the region's outskirts." The voice paused. "We offer help in the name of the Holy Empire and the Emperor." He paused again.

"We can identify that the distress beakon was given by a colony ship of a civlization of colonists - most likely humanoid," the man continued. "We have traced the make of the beakon to a system far greater than ours that was destroyed, details unknown. We can also tell that this area right now has no colony ships." He took a breath. "Due to the debris we figure that the colony ship was damaged by fire power - probably pirate. We can also tell that this ship was being towed." He paused yet another time. "Is this information accurate? What is your current situation?"

Comm to GOU I'll Smack you one: You may send an emissary aboard, and we have made a seperate room for the Hive emissary if the atmosphere aboard the ship isn't compatible, there is a connecting room I can allow your emissary in, which would provide him protection. If you don't mind us asking, why do you have such a Wary Position when dealing with this "Hive" they have been at a non-aggressive stance since they got here, and have been very cooperative, perhaps we can work out this problem when you come aboard. Also we wish to decline you offer of a security detail, although you may bring one or two bodyguards for your emissary. The TSP Wanderer is quite secure on its own.

Comm to Hive Fleet Imodius: Preperations have been made, and you are free to come aboard, although I have to warn you, if you make any aggesive action against the emissary from Altaran or the TSP Personnel, Communication and Relations will be terminated indefinately.

Curse you double Post!

Message to the EGS Fist: Here how the events stand: The Great Space Fleet was offered a place to colonize by Froggyliciousness and GSF Accepted, unforteuneatly they were attacked by pirates and one of the colony ships was disabled, but Froggyliciousness offered to Tow it back to the planet, and is presumably still doing just that

* The ship pulsed once more and then turned gleefully almost playfully towards Torontonias' ships it then raced at breakneck speed towards the ships slowing down as it reached their outer perimiter*

OoC - We do not trust the Hive. They look and sound too much like Borg.

Comm to Hive Fleet Imodius: we are willing to give you the DNA, but only for research purposes, any attept to alter or duplicate it in any way will cause a pathogen to be released which will destroy the bonds which hold the DNA together.

In return we would like to have a overview of you species (History, Description etc.) and a sample of your DNA. We hope our future relations will prosper.

I pretty much ruined this rp :(


Anyway, when are the pirates going to post their losses? I'm assuming I completely blew up their entire fleet.

(OOC: Please stop attacking the pirates. I already did, and they didn't post their losses. As soon as they do, you're free to attack them.)

The pirates are fairly active in our regional message board. Just telegram them - I don't think they are aware you have attacked them.

How long will it take for the repairs to be complete?

TRANSMISSION FROM ESCAPE POD:

"This is the leader of the Deep Space Pirates," a man said over a staticy connection. "We will no longer harm your vessels. Our entire fleet has been destroyed, but please spare my life! I will never attack you again if you do!"

OoC - Sorry it took me forever to post losses. I have things to do other than NationStates!

We beleive you. We are picking you up in your escape pod. Don't try anything funny. We have Elite Imperial Guards on our ship. We will take you back to our capital planet.

The EGS Fist opened a small docking bay and the escape pod drifted in.

Ooc - Other nations - don't attack me for doing this. You don't know if it is a trap! :twisted:

I would condem the act of helping my enemies, but it could be an arrest. I must wait and see what happens...

OOC: That's your que, the Great System. Tell us if you are arresting or helping!

The leader of the Deep Space Pirates steps out of the escape pod and...

OoC - This is it. Finish this statement. It can't be any harder on you. Even I want to know what is going on, but you won't tell us!

Fine. I'll finish the statement:

...gets surrounded by Elite Imperial Guards. They arrest him and the [b]EGS Fist[/i] hyperspaces back to the capital planet where the pirate leader will be charged of treason and piracy. He could face life in prision or even the death penalty!

The trial will start soon and all witnesses are invited to come.

OOC - The trial will be in a different thread, that way there will be a poll of guilty or innocent. After the trial is over (if he is guilty), the sentencing will take place in yet another thread where there will be a poll of life or death. Give me a minute to make the first trial thread.

Thank you for your permission to send aboard an emissary. He will be accompanied with two bodyguards, armed with CREWs (information attached).

We are wary of this species simply because of the terrible experiences we have suffered in the past with 'Hive' civilisations. They have also declined so far to provide adequate information on their intentions.

We will not hesitate to destroy them should they attempt any aggressive action.

I think the prosecution needs more witnesses.

This just keeps getting better by the moment!

Comm to Hive fleet Imodius: We accept you arrangement and are heading toward the node, and would like to know the process of that self-cannibalization, it was very interesting, and we would like to study it in the future. We have a representitve from Altaran onboard, and they have a somewhat shakey experience with Hive civilizations so try not to do anything that might upset them. With the situation with the radiation, you are fortuneate enough that we were about the do a core dump into storage, but this is much faster, we will dump the core as soon as this comm is ended

Comm to Altaran: We have prepared a room for you and your guards, but I want you to be aware that we will be docked at the "Node" so if you have any problems with that, you must let us know, but the Fleet has yet to show an agressive stance. Also, I advise you do stay away from the Wanderer for about 2 hours as we are preforming an exterior radiation core dump, as to the Hives request.

The Great Space Fleet hyperspaces back to the area, fully repaired. Everyone is there except the High Commander, who is in the Great System testifying against the leader of the Deep Space Pirates.

That was fast, would you like to join us in the mini-conference I'm having with Altaran and the Hive Fleet Imodius?

Meanwhile, in the center of the region, in the Great System...

As the trial (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=97496) commences, a dark plot forms. A group of radical revolutionaries against the Emperor ready a few corvette class ships. They readied blastor rifles and blaster pistols and headed toward the Imperial Supreme Court building. The rebels had heard that there were national leaders there, but they didn't know how (un)lucky they were. They head toward the building....

The 6 Node ships release the "organ" and swim towards the Wanderer's rear in anticipation of the core dump all buffeting each other and racing towards their potential food supply. The "organ" turns towards the first node that is preparing to dock with the Wanderer and a long billowing stream of tentacles push out from behind it propelling it towards the node ship.

1 of the nodes dashes towards the organ and begins to rub against it longing for attention - feeling the pain that a break in the hive creates.
the remaning 2 nodes go bezerk, Totally enraged that they are disturbed while feeding they charge towards the agresive ships, firing spore after spore at the ships, each one a ball of highenergy corrosive bio acid (think plasma till it hits then thinks lots of fizzing of surface metal try pH: -4 ths stuff will melt thru a plannet if left un hinderd)*

The node slams into its target (ooc>i tihnk this is the i'll smakk you one whicher is the biggest) its jaws closing vice like about the ship spraying bioacid directly onto the hull of the trapped ship*

Open Comms: FEED!

*The "organ" wraps itself around The wanderer attempting to place itself over the massive tears in the ship's hull to try and stop the ruptures worsening. The remaning 3 biovessels seace firing in an attempt not to damage the ship that the rogue node has latched onto*

Open comms from "organ":
Hive queen eta is 12 *an unknown unit of measurement / time is utterd - approx 5 mins of standard earth time* Controll will be with the hive.

*The remaning 3 biovessels move back into the shadow of the wanderer pushing floating depris along as if they had found a new toy*

An Interspace tear opened and two ships emerged: The TSDC Epsilon and the TSDC Polytron, both warships of the newly founded Torontonias Spacial Defence Commission, Pulse lasers fired up and began firing, in an attempt to drive way the biovessels, and both ships head immediately to the Damaged Wanderer distress beacon.

The damage is worse than we first anticipated... The Commander thought to himsekf We'll have to call in A Tech Ship if the damage is too sevear..I've never seen anything like it, it looked like ships eating ships...it was all so bizzare..

The Polytron left the Epsilon to protect the Wanderer, and headed for the Altaranian ship that had a hive ship barreling toward it, with what looked like its jaws wide open. The Ship fired its 3 heavy laser cannons in its best efforts to disable or distroy the advancing Hive ship.

Pulse lasers fired up and began tearing away at the enemy biovessels

Don't post their losses for them. It's bad RPing.

SC Lance: Arm the homing missiles and fire.

* A huge rift in space time opens large enough for a small sun, from this hole emerges what can only be described as a planet sized Cuttle fish with huge mile long tendrils reaching back into space after it, sweeping in on its flanks are over 50 ships all varying in size from the "node" sized ship currently in the region to ships just under 2/3rds the size of the hive queen. The rogue ship immediatly stops its actions and weaves behind its target avoiding the fire before moving back out to face the hive queen. Screaming her disaproval the queen fire's a single purle pulse from her maw at the single ship - there is a blinding flash of light and then nothing but vapor dissipating instantly into the darkness of space.*

SC Lance: I was hoping it wouldn't come to this. Send in the Planetary Bombardiers, tell them to lock on to that mothership. Anything that can destroy a planet can destroy that thing, I hope. Send the fighters after the other ships. And guide those homing missiles away from the other ships and to hit the mothership thing.

Tactical: Confirmed.

Science: Never seen anything like this..

(OOC: I've noticed you haven't taken a SINGLE hit to your ships, even with our advanced technology in tracking systems. That's kind of unfair. Therefore, even though it's bad RPing, I'm going to post your losses. Kind of. Without being too much of a n00b.)

*the homing missiles impact the mothership and cause damage*

ooc> Not posting damage - before now people were REALLY upspecific at what they were shooting at- also you must remember that while homing missiles will work VERY effectivly against them you are fighting creatures that LIVE in space - i have been posting my own casualties - of the 9 original ships only 4 remain (organ + node attached to wander never took part in fighting and i take it that you were not shooting at the ones "friendly" nor at the ones - hiding behind The wanderre leaving 3 to shoot at - only 1 remains) so you know i have been rolling 1 dice for each ship to determin what happens to them - hence 1 ship surviving for so long. Any way - onto the action - and sorry about that but i am trying to represent eons of evolution and bioengenering of these ships ;) also i tend to ignore other people godmodding:P

*The Queen's skein ripples as the missiles impact having little effect on the huge beast. She shrieks in anger at the ships confronting her. Opening her belly thousands of swarm ships fall out and hurtle towards their targets like a swarm of parisites the larger vessels open fire upon their targets bio acid balls flaring into the darkness of space. The larger hive ships move between the Hive queen and its attackers to try and block any further attacks against it. As the swarm hurtles towards their targets the newly bred offspring explond under the fire being slowly wittled down but against such numbers it is too little and over 100 break thru the wall of fire heading straight for FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks. The swarm slam into FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks and begin using the bioacid to melt their way thru the hold of the ship preparing to digourge their cargo into the FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks.*

Supreme Chancellor out.

Comm to Hive Fleet Imodius: We have sent you a sample of DNA courtesy of the TSDC ships, we no longer need assistance but we do thank you for the offer, the two Warships are more than enough to defend the Wanderer, although we do need medical supplies, but I doubt that you, being organic would be able to provide.

Nevertheless, we thank you for the protection from the rouge ships, and although we would like to help you in this battle, the TSDC Has ordered all Torontonias Ships to stay neutral untill further notice.

As a word of advice, I would warn you about taking on a ship that has a payload of Planet Busters. Although we do understand the aggressiveness of your queen, it would be a shame for your kind of biological evolution to go down in flames....

ooc> kewl sheilds - niice

*The 300 or so swam ships slam into the sheilds of FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks the first 50 or so having no effect and merly bouncing off and then floating in front of the sheilds the other see this and pull up and then swing about behind this ship several being taken out by defensive cannons but not making a dent in their numbers the swarm then spinds out into space and charges into one focussed spot hundreds of them slamming into on spot weakening the shilds untill - one breaks thru - the mass suicide worked - screaming towards the hull of the ship the swarm vessel crashes into the metal and begins to bore into the hull.

The remaing swarm vessels that were repelled by the firepower engage the fighters slamming into them and covering them in bioacids rather than shooting them. while at first this seams an ineffective way of doing it with so many targets to shoot the swarms numbers begin to tell.

The Queen know now how to break these sheilds pulsing she turns towards the freshly warped in ship her maw opening flickers of blue / purle plasma forming into a ball of energy. The nodes charge towards this new threat preparing to intercept any missiles launched in a suicidal fashion.*

As the octopus approaches the rear of the queen a second maw opens and begins to devour it. The new biomass is turned into more swarm ships inside the queen at an alaming rate. Reproducing by mass meiosis 1 becomes 2, 2 become 4, 4 beceome 8 but by that time the first has reproduced into 2 a seconds is born from within the queen storring them and ammasing more for a second "hatching"*

Froggy, I assume you are using the standard equipment on that Annihilator? If so, you might want to actually know the specs before RPing with it. Not to be harsh or anything, just a suggestion. First of all no projectile attack (including those alien things) could ever reach the hull of any Annihilator I manufactured due to the Point Defense Web. Also, you mentioned firing homing missiles AND torpedoes, but it only has missiles, no torpedoes (unless you were talking about the Refracted Particle Cannons.)

For a full description of all the weapons on it, look here:http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=96228&start=20, 3rd post from the last.

If you modified the Annihilator from the original specs, then that's fine. I just wanted to check.

ooc> aye mitosis ;) my bad.

The Hive pauses for a spilt seconds and parts before the Queen as a great pulse of purple energy surges towards the 8km long ship What Are The Civilian Applications? slamming into its sheilds with enough force to wipe out a city.

The Captain of the TSDC Polytron watched in dismay as the battle unfolded. he looked at the Wanderer's report on his desk, this entire battle was started by a stanadard computer targeting, how.....absurd, The Hive had apparently lost control of a handful of ships and the Altaranian ships defended themselves, then when the queen arrived, the Altaranians were to punish the lack of control by destroying ALL of the hive ships, including the queen, which would be as the Wanderer Captain said: A Shamelful waste of such a potential Ally and Nation.

But there was nothing they could do, even the Entire Torontonias fleet wouldn't be enough to stop with, the Froggylisiousness ship could wipe out one of our ships in a single volley, and if we did stand up for the Hive, we would be branded as the same as them, and we would be destroyed...

"Sir!" one of the Crewmen shouted! "the Ship What are the Civilian Applications" Has arrived, according to the Wanderer, we were supposed to talk to them about this problem, they have released a general Comm, to you wish to send them one?"

The Captain nodded his head and went into his office:

Tight Feed to What are the Civilian Applications: We wish to apply our dismay at what this has turned into, I understand how anyone would be infurated by this unprovoked act of aggression, I would be as well, But you haveto understand, they Hive ships should be undercontrol from the Queen, perhaps we would be able to help stop this bloodshed, and return to peacefull negotiations.

THE FOLLOWING IS COMPLETELY OOC

(I did modify it. Where do you think it got the phase cannons?) Hive Fleet, I don't really care about your dice rolls. I have a massively powerful fleet and you're crushing it like a bug, along with a ton of other ships. Again I must reprimand you for the constant "ripping into hull, blowing up stuff" declaring losses on me crap. There's a point where godmodding happens, and you've shot past it with a rocket-car. I'm arming my Ignore Cannon if you keep doing it. I dont care how much evolution happened, I'm going to start shooting chunks out of your ships. In fact, I'll do it right now.

Your 1000th post...congrats..

ooc> okies - where am i god modding - i opend fire at missile tubes and sent suicide ships to block inbound biochem missiles that you WARNED me you were going to use. Thus not gomodding, only one of my ships is godmodding and that is the one (escape pop sized swarmvessel big enough for 1 man!) that broke thru the sheilds - all the others are either charging at you preparing to crush you OR shooting at you non of this has yet happend i am awaiting your responce - hence the capital lance (purple from queen) and strider lance (from royal guards) slamming into your sheilds - i did not say how much damage they did or if they penetrated i am letting you deal with that - you have said yourself bioacid has no effect on your sheilds so they are simply acting as AA guns and shooting missiles out of the sky. The only time i have god modded is again where the single ship got thu the sheilds.

Comm to Altaran: We stand on the side lines becasue of two reasons, a) We belive there still may be peace with the aliens, and if no one is willing to probe that oportunity, then I will, although you say you have tried diplomacy, WE Have had more friendly and passive contact, so perhaps we will be able to negotiate something...

and b) We do not join the conflict becasue currently we don't have enough available ships, you are looking at 30% of our fleet with these three ships, we have only begun commisioning Warships, the majority of the current fleet are lightly armed Science Ships, like the Wanderer.

Comm from the Captain of the Wanderer, on the Polytron to Hive Queen: Hive Queen, We belive that you are acting too quickly, we were very close to peaceful negotiations, you are only fighting back becasue the renegade ships have made you look like a vicisoius bloodthirsty alien, which you are not, now that the renegade ships have been dealt with, this has become a paradox of a battle, you are only fighting Altaran and Froggyliciouisness becasue they want to destroy you for the crime of the rouge ships, and you are only fighting them, becasue they are fighting you. So be the bigger Nation and stand down, I assure you that if the enemy ships do not open themselves to negotiations and you explain to them that it was the rouge ships that attacked, they will agree to a ceasefire. At least we hope they are civilizaed enough to end this battle. If they are not, then we will take up action for you.

We thank you for ceasing attacks on our vessels. We have responded likewise.

Now, perhaps you would like to offer us an explanation as to what your intentions are, why you are here, and why you are unable to control your own ships?

We would also greatly appreciate if you cease attacks on Froggyliciousness. We are willing to open negotiations with yourselves, if you cease firing on the Squishy Frog Fireworks.

Comms from "hive Queen" @GSV What Are The Civilian Applications?:
*A hissing voice coms onto air*
We are the hive. We shall elaborate the incidents occuring here.
Patroll picked up Bekon signal and moved in to investigate. Upon arrival made contact with local vessels. Having arranged a parle on board The Wanderer we also requested food, they obliged. Unfotunatly the synapse creature for the patroll is weak and did not have total control. When the nodes feed this is particularly the case. Only partial control is assured. From what we have been informed of seeral ships then warped in and targeted the feeding vessels. They were warned to stand down their weapons systems for the ships were not in total control - we warned them. The Synapse was broken and several of the vessels broke free of the hive mind attacking the aggressors. The lead vessel called for backup to resolve this situation. Upon our arrival we disposed of the rogue vessels immidiatly however the aggresors refused to cease fire and were determined to destroy us.
We appologise for fireing upon you. when the hive feeds control is not total. However the presence of us creates greater control. Our control is total. Aggresion now is our choice. We are defending ourselfs from a threat. Should FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks decide to continue this battle then we shall destroy them.
The ship attached to the FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks is capable of crushing that ship into stardust. We are the hive We are perfection.

*The ship indicated is 1/3 the size of the Hive Queen (approx the size of a small moon) the hive queen herself the same size as a plannet. The lack of movement makes the silence of space more apparent than ever ships mearly floating in space awaiting orders.*

Royal Guard @ FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks:
We are the Hive We are Perfection. Respond or you will be destroyed. Aggresors will not be tolorated. A threat to the hive will not be tolorated.
We are your fait.

*The royal guard circle their target the Great biovessel still holding on gently to the front of the ship with its huge mandibles. The smaller swarm ship on the side of the FSF Squishy Frog Fireworks seals up the hole it created with bioacid and drops off the ship moving towards the royal guard its purpose as a delivary vessel complete the royal guard turn on it and devour it with no remorse.*

Comm to Hive Fleet: The Federation would be glad to welcome an actual emissary onboard the Polytron, as we are hopeing to get the diplomatic meeting underway again after the first one went Awry, due the the renegade ships. We have prepared a meeting room and await your arival, but first you may want to settle your problems with Altaran and Froggylisoiusness, so that a meeting may take place on a larger scale

Onboard Squishy Frog Fireworks

Comm: Communications is online now.

SC Lance: Send a message.

Comm to hive vessels

Aggressors? We've asked you more than 3 times to quit attacking us, and WE'RE the aggressors? All we were doing was helping the other ships while in the area. I'm willing to stand down if you do. If you don't, the rest of the fleet (more than 50 cruisers, 6 fully stocked [they hold 500 fighters a piece] carriers, 200 destroyers, etc.) will blow you to pieces. Good day.

Permision granted take shelter here until combat is over. However, you may not have one of our planets. I'm sure Froggyliciousness will help you find a homeland.

Okay. We will take shelter in the Great System. When the region is safe, Froggyliciousness will provide us a homeworld and we can leave the Great System. Besides, we need to pick up High Commander Paul anyways. Emergency hyperspace activated.

The rebel forces break into the court room. It was deserted because it was late at night. They sneak into the back of the court building where there is a jail for people waiting for the ship to the prision asteroid. As they break into the area, they notice the Deep Space Pirate leader. They deactivate the forcefield and liberate the convicted man. The rebel men then dashes out to the front of the building where their escape vehicles are.

Police vehicles catch them, but the rebellion are already in their spacecraft. The police chase after them...

The Great Space Fleet arrives at its destination. The ships arrange in formation and a shuttle is sent down to the capital planet to pick up the High Commander. The Great Space Fleet will wait here until conflicts end and it is safe to get a homeworld.

(OOC: Password for FroggyWorld II has been sent. )

We have picked up our leader and are hyperspacing right now!

The people of the Fleet stared in awe at FroggyWorld II. It was a large planet and most of the people in the Great Space Fleet never even remembered their own homeworld. High Commander Marc Wilson led a shuttle team down to the new planet. The planet was perfect for their needs.

Soon, most of the people from the Great Space Fleet were down on FroggyWorld II, building a civilization that they could be proud of. A small matenence crew chose to stay in the Fleet to upkeep it. Their quest seemed over...

Colonization successful.

We are sending our second wave of colonists. A city on FroggyWorld II will soon come.

I'm just searching and all of a sudden the Whole Pirates/deepspace thing comes active, but when I try to see wahts new, it takes me in a loophole, besides I already knew the Pirate Leader was convicted. Great Space Fleet do you have a plan to continue the Story or something? Because it was interesting but then it kind of deteriorated.

Heh heh, it already got a happy ending. GSF colonized FroggyWorld II, the dude was convicted, FSF Squishy's on route to FroggyWorld...ya I kinda ruined it.

I think that this is bumped because Deep Space has become active again. The following threads have a subplot visiting the region of Deep Space:

Besides, this thread was never officially ended.

By the way, apparantly the Deep Space Pirate Chief guy escaped because I actually saw him in the first thread mentioned above.

OOC: Ah, I see, well that makes sence, So later we should expect the Pirate wit ha new army threatening the GSF?

OOC: Ah, I see, well that makes sence, So later we should expect the Pirate wit ha new army threatening the GSF?

Yes. We just have to wait for the pirates to make the first move.

The fleet is readying for a "raid" of FroggyWorld II involving our new, massive Destructoship.

A raiding fleet of the Deep Space Pirates hyperspaced into the Froggy System. They had the Great Space Fleet on the radar, orbiting around FroggyWorld II. The pirates launched hundreds of fighters, dozens of frigates, advanced the capital ships, and charged the weapons on the Destructoship.

Okay. Pirate move made. I might get involved now that I have a space fleet. At the very least, I will attemt to warn the others.

OOC: Seeing how my ships have since left the system where th first incident took place, I'll have to come up with some why in which I find out about this attack..

*this sudden change in the warp alerted the hive to this new threat looking to their aggresors for a responce.*

comms from Hive Queen @ Squishy Frog Fireworks:
We are the hive, we detect you are being attacked as a sign of our will to cease aggresive activities we shall allow your fleet to return and protect your own planet / system.
We are the Hive we are perfection.

*The numerous hive ships moved back towards the hive queen awaiting a responce and preparing to warp out of the system at least first contact had not been lost for them afterall Torontonias was willing to talk.*

The pirate ships are awaiting enemy movements before their next strike.

Onboard sensor station Alpha-2, chaos erupted. The computers were detecting a fleet heading to Froggyworld II. Not a good sign.

Commander: Relay the info to Squishy Frog Fireworks.

Now to Squishy Frog Fireworks. The Supreme Chancellor had just woken up. He headed to the bridge.

Comm: Sir, we're getting readings from Alpha-2. A fleet of Pirate vessels is heading toward FroggyWorld II.

SC: Damn. Activate the system shielding.

Suddenly, thousands of small remote machines scattered around the Froggy System sprang to life. After doing a check of internal systems and getting confirmation from the Froggy Flagship, they each activated a small area of invisible energy shielding. Though you could not see it, a shield was being activated around the system.

SC: We have prepared for this day well. Open a comm to FroggyWorld and FroggyWorld II. Mobilize every single ship we can scrounge up. Tell the GSF to evacuate as many citizens to FroggyWorld as they can. Ready the freighters and stock them with refugees. They must get out of there.

On FroggyWorld, the Memorial Spaceport had been shut down. Anything coming in or out of the planet had to be military. At the coffee shop, the Froggy Squadron pilots had been waiting for deployment. Now was their chance to see what they could do. Running as fast as they can, they ran to their ships in Hangar 5. The other squadrons did the same. The biggest battle in Froggy System's history was about to begin.

(OOC: A wh00p missile is a giant missile. filled with antimatter suspended in a magnetic field, and heavy hydrogen inside another compartment. It also contains 2 fusion bombs mounted on the sides. On detonation, the fusion bombs explode, causing subatomic particles to be ejected from the hydrogen atoms. A detector picks up the presense of these subatomic particles, and mixes the antimatter and the matter, causing a giant explosion. [Kind of like a photon torpedo, but with two H-bombs strapped on it]. )

Now to go back IC

Last time we left off, the Froggy Squadron pilots were launching from the spaceport to do some initial recon. They blasted off and are now heading toward the GREAT PIRATE FLEET.....

Froggy 7: Wow, that's good coffee.

Froggy 9: Are you kidding? You're talking about coffee when we've got THAT huge thing in front of us?

Froggy Leader: Don't get distracted. Infrared, UV, whatever it takes. Get as much sensor info as possible. Raise shields. All ships report.

Froggy Leader: Expect some potshots at us.

Of course we want peace! But we are reading an invasion fleet being directed toward FroggyWorld. Are you planning to take over FroggyWorld?

End Comm

Any help would be appreciated.

Meanwhile, the Froggy Squadron was flying around the fleet, doing recon, and not being fired at.

Froggy 2: I've never had a huge gigantic enemy fleet that let me do recon on it. This is odd.

The 1st Froggy Fleet was at the border of Froggy System.

*A huge interdimensional rift opens up just outside the froggyworld system thousands upon thousands of hive ships surging out towards the small planet - the huge form of the Hive queen blackening out the stars behind her. Several minuetes later an even larger rift opend on the other side of the system and over 1million hive vessels plunged out of the warp.

The Rhino Dreadnaught (it's escorts docked in it) hyperspaces into range of FroggyWorld II to prevent the pirates from firing. Just in case you don't know, Rhino Dreadnaughts are HUGE and are the largest capital ship Nanakaland manufactures (any larger is a super capital ship).

We're all on the same side here, Hive Fleet. If you don't stop acting like the system is yours, you will be expelled from it.

The fleet prepared for combat.

An OOC note: Are the pirates actually going to make a move?

After repeatedly scanning the ships, analyzing the data, and finding weak spots, Keiran Halcyon was annoyed. Why hadn't the pirates made their move? When you are going to invade a system, you usually blow something up. Well, these idiots weren't going to clog up the trading lanes forever.

Keiran: Tell the fleet to begin it's attack on the pirates.

[I] Suddenly, hundreds and hundreds of ships launched from colonies on the FroggyWorld planet and moon. 100 Mama Phr0g Class carriers released their cargo of 500 Froggy fighters a piece: 50,000 small fighters zoomed out and started attacking the pirates vessels. 50 Destroyers were launched from the main Spaceport on FroggyWorld. They also began firing. 30 cruisers took off from FroggyLunar spaceport and headed toward the pirates. More ships were on the schedule to take off.

200 Alpha Class Fighters
100 Beta Class Fighters
10 Delta Class BattleCruisers
1 Omega Class Annihilator
10 (never before used) Toad Troops Boarding Vessel
(carries about 50 troops)

The FroggyWorld Offense/Defense station also powered up weapons for any possible attack on FroggyWorld or FroggyLuna.

The main ship started launching an EMP cannon. Other than that, the ships moved on autopilot, keeping a steady course to FroggyWorld II. The ships waited there until the Froggyliciousness forces moved closer. The Deep Space Pirates then all exploded - on self destruct - and damaged or destroyed many ships. It was a trap!

Then another fleet uncloaked nearby. They started opening fire on the survivors and on FroggyWorld II.

*The hive patriach didnt think, he didnt need to, a second fleet had just appeared out of no where. His main lance was already armed as where his guardians ships - they opened fire on the fleet, Surges of red, purple, orange and green plasma launched towards the new fleet in a targeting pattern that resulted in a solid multicoloured BEAM of plasma with the same diameter as the nearby sun and nearly the same heat, many of the smaller hive vessels died due to the intence heat the beam lasted for over 2 mins the centre constantly locked onto the middle of the attacking fleet.*
ooc sorry about any spelling its late :(

Fighters span out of control in the frictionless void of space, waiting for the Kookaburra class workbees to pull them into the carriers. 70% of the Froggy fighters were destroyed, 40% of the Alpha and Beta classes, along with 30% of the destroyers and 10% of the carriers.

On FroggyWorld, the Froggy Defense Force command center was lit up with activity. The planetary shields had suffered no damage, but the fleet did. Keiran Halcyon opened a comm to the fleet.

COMM TO: FroggyWorld Fleet

Get out of there now! Keep the Deltas & Omegas in. Release all the workbees while you hold them off with the Deltas. Initiate MVAM with the Deltas. Fix those ships, get them into the carriers, and get inside the shield. We will move the station into position.

OOC: Who says most of my fleet 'was damaged or destroyed'. Without the actual specs it's hard to know :P

Froggy Squadron was OK. They had evaded most of the ships that were exploding. The recon showed a lot: the ships had multiple weak points. If the ships warping in had the same config as the others, this would be a piece of cake. Suddenly, they got the comm from the VC and relayed their info to the Command Center, engaging their subspace drives and moving toward the shield.


Two hours later...[B]

[B]The FroggyWorld Offense Defense station moved into position. It armed all of it's beams and prepared to launch a very, very secret arsenal.....
