I was wondering if there was any interest at all for a StarCraft RP. I believe that it would be cool due to the fact that #1, the Game Rocks ,#2 it has an excelent storyline that you could easily follow(if you played the game or read the books,), and #3 It already has set weapons and technologies and such, so the invention of "Ub3r n00ks 74h7 pwnz j00." is probably unlikley.

Of course, absolutely no one may want to join, but its just a thought. A very good thought, but just a thought none the less.

Can I control Tassadar's forces?

Hey, ill give it a shot. Seems like fun, seeing how the game was cool and all that.

Can I control Tassadar's forces?

Sure! But just for the record, this is just based on the game. So we use GAme Units and stuff, but fight different wars and stuff.

Heres an application form you can fill out:

Name of Nation: (doesnt have to be your REAL nation, just name it what your SC nation would be named.)
Race: (Zerg, Terran, or Protos)
Leader:
System(s): (you can invent a name OR take one from the game.)
Home System : (same as up top.)
Capital Planet: (Once again, invent or take from game.)

Population: (Doesnt have to be your REAL population. Terran Max Pop: 3,000,000,000. Zerg Max Pop: 1,000,000,000,000. Protos Max Pop: 250,000,000.)

Army Size: (use game units)

Fleet Size: (use game ships)

Background Information: (try to flesh out your nations history.)

Background Information: Made up of a few Breakaway systems from the Terran Confederacy over 200 years ago, the Terran Republic of New Massachusetts used to be a backwater repulic, invaded by the Confederacy many times. However, after the fall of the Confederacy at the Hands of both the Dominion and the U.E.D, the Republic gained strength and population as refugees came. After defeating a U.E.D Invasion Fleet, the republic gained even more power. Now it is one of the most powerful Terran Republics.

What about the little seperate sub factions, like the UED Terrans?

Name of Nation: Citadel of Azarath

Race: Protoss

Leader: Tassadar

System: Corellia (a system dangerously close to Char)

Capital Planet: Gau'ran, a jungle planet similar in many ways to Aiur

Population: 50,000,000 (aprox.)

Fleet Size: 300 Scouts, 50 Carriers, 100 Observers, 40 Vessels, 100 Arbitrers

Info: Tassadar, the Protoss Executor, was charged with a most interesting mission: to build a colony intended to the training of his Templar brethren. For 10 years has he watched over the blooming of this new citadel, that he holds almost as dearly as his own homeland. The colonists have proven to excel in their Templar training, and are now the main defence force of the land. Tassadar still controls a small army, just in case someone decides to visit.

What about the little seperate sub factions, like the UED Terrans?

Thats what the nations are. The terrans are a race. The UED is a nation.

Samurai Clanlords: Accepted.

Name of Nation: Ka'laat Brood

Fleet Size: Unknown(estimates range from 100,000,000,000 to 600,000,000)

Background Information: After Kerrigan had managed to defeat the UED, a small group of Zerg were uncontent with her rule. Lead by a new Daggoth, the Zerg rebelled and took over 5 systems. Although Kerrigan tried to regain controll, she had more pressing matters and established a peace with the Daggoth of the Ka'laat Brood.

OOC: I found this site with good, fleshy details (http://www.sclegacy.com)

UED wasn't a nation as far as I know, wasn't it a military coalition? Ah well regardeless, the UED were the badasses, until they themselves got their asses kicked in the end.

Background Information:
All the nations of Earth have united together and the United Earth Directorate was born. At first it was a democratic government but a General named Nikolaos went against the UED and defeated them. He is now the supreme dictator of Earth and the UED. He does not oppress the people and gives them plenty of freedom.

As you can see here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=360366)

Name of Nation: The Readanian Covenant

Race: Protoss

Leader: Aust Liadon

Systems: Grnaki and Grissom systems

Home Planet: Aiur

Capital Planet: Grnaki Prime, a planet showered with deadly hailstorms

Population: 155,000,000 (approx.)

Army Size: 200000 Zealots, 150000 Dragoons, 40000 Templars (Prophets), 40000 Reavers, 100000 Archons, 100000 Dark Templars (Crusaders), 10000 Dark Archons

Fleet Size: 200000 Scouts, 1000 Carriers, 100000 Observers, 40000 Shuttles, 5000 Arbitrers, 150000 Corsairs

Background Information: A very hostile and relgious nation, even by the standards of other protoss peoples. The Readanians were exiled out of Aiur for supporting the Dark Templars and their kin. They then went off in search of a planet of their own. They found the nearly uninhabitable systems of Grnaki and Grissom a good area to start their Holy Empire under their own beliefs. The Readanian Covenant believes that their gods, Rea the wise and Dan the Mighty, have guided them to these systems which no other race would even consider to hold a nation. They believe that since no other race would come to these planets, they could plot their vengence more easily. One last belief that defines their culture is that the Protoss and the Zerg are two parts of the prefect race, and that the terran exist only to hinder the combinding of the two races. Thus the Readanians not only hate the Zerg, but the Terran as well. Yet this hatred does not competely prevent them from forming alliances with these races, it only shortens how long they last. The Readanian's constant search for a way to create their prefect race has lead to the rumor that a shadowy man named Duran has created such a being. This not only helped to fuel their hatred of the humans, it also started the idea of a crusade into the heart of the conflict where this being was made. Such a crusade would not only help them accuire more land, but also might allow them to capture this Duran and find out how he created this union of Zerg and Protoss.

To Dan: Yup.

To Islamaisbad: This is off topic but...did you ever happen to live in Islamabad?

Soviet Leaders: You can, but nothing EXTREMELY different. Its only been a few years since the game left off, its not like you discovered the space-time continuom(SP?) and created time-traveling warriors of doom.

Everyone: Wow! Alotz0rz of peoplez0rz! Ok...

Name of Nation: The Rebel Vindicator Compact [RVC]
Race: Terran
Leader: Lord James Maekrix (commonly called simply “Maekrix”)
System(s): Magnus Dux, Syther, and various Un`Dar Borderworlds
Home System: Magnus Dux
Capital Planet: Tiberius Magnus

Population: Approx. 1,972,540,000

Army Size: (44,500,000+ 30,000,000SCV)
25,000,000 Marines
15,000,000 Firebats
6,500,000 Medics
3,000,000 Vultures
1,000,000 Goliaths
250,000 Arclite Siege Tanks
250,000 Ghosts

30,000,000 SCV (50% are permanently stationed at home systems, 50% are field personnel)

Fleet Size:
10,000,000 Wraiths
5,000,000 Dropships
2,500,000 Valkyrie
250,000 Explorer Science Vessels
110,000 Behemoth Battlecruisers (plus the Magnus Maekrix Flagship, and the Alexander Space Catamaran)

Background Information:

The Rebel Vindicator Compact was first formed at the rise of the Confederacy by a small amount of pirate militias. It’s original purpose was to protect the greater majority of the rebellious homeworlds, but eventually evolved into one state nation, the pirates giving up their individualites and independence. It continues to expand into the fringes of deepspace, and continues to protect against rising superpowers, like the U.E.D.
As the RVC transformed into what they are now, they have passed many charters and have done extensive research. StimPacks are banned because of their dangerous side effects, although the IRL (Interspace Research Labs, a sub-company of the RVC military) is currently very close to an altered StimPack with significantly less side-effects.

Name of Nation: The Collective of Terravein
Race: Terran
Leader: Archduke Taylor Terravein
System: Valorius
Home System : Valorius
Capital Planet: Triad

Population: 250,000

Army Size: 10,000 Marines, 1,500 Firebats, 500 Goliaths, 100 Ghosts, 100 Medics, and 50 Arclites.

Fleet Size: 500 Wraiths, 200 Valkyries, 200 Science Vessels, and 4 Battlecruisers. [The Terravein, The Casa Oro, The Sabre, and The Tigre.]

Background: It had been a long trip. The computers glowed hazily. The ships drifted... away. The crash had been hard. But the people found hope. A man by the name Taylor Terravein. He had given them power; he gave them a well-trained, smart army. He gave them hope in a barren system infested with Zerg.

Basically, this is a 4-planet system lead by this 'Archduke' who wields a small, but very powerful army. It's population is smarter, stronger, and happier than the average, thanks to the amount of resources he has put towards the small population. Also, I would like you to take into consideration that this militairy is life-trained and very oiled - unlike the rest of the Terran sqauds. Hence the small numbers and population.

Name of Nation: Children of the Void
Race: Protoss
Leader: Volgomar
System(s): Unknown, Korpulu?
Home System : Again, unknown, Korpulu?
Capital Planet: Timul IV

Population: 170,560,700

Army Size: 1m men, plus three million that can be indoctrinated if completely needed. Made up of Protoss equipment, unspecified number of stolen Terran equipment as well, modified to fit protoss, possibly even reverse-engineered terran equipment.

Fleet Size: 1m men also make up the fleet. Being less reliant on capital ships, not having the huge docks to make many, there are only 12 Carriers in the fleet. However, there are 5,000 smaller craft, with assorted corsairs, scouts, arbiters and carrier aircraft. A large number of shuttles and observers are put into use, as well as a number of valkyries, unknown if they were captured or produced locally, but again, modified for protoss.

Background Information: A sect of the Dark Templar that decided to settle on Timul IV. They took the land the confederacy was holding, that was obliterated by a group of Ultralisks. Dark templar destroyed the ultralisks, and the colony flourished, spreading across the continent that was only sparsly populated otherwise. Ties with the terrans and protoss have been made, and both species have tried to become friendly with the CoV.

OOC: Chellis loves his starcraft, yes he does ^_^

National Capitalists in Outerspace! :) Sounds fun!

Name of Nation: Terran Elite Republican Repubic of The Great Seventh Reich
Race: Terran
Leader: Baccus

300,000 Ghosts
5,000 Siege Tanks
1,000 Medics

Fleet Size:

300 Battlecruisers
1,000 Valkaries

Background Information:

Thousands of years after the rise of the Sixth Reich, a new leader fleed Earth and established the Seventh Reich on Frigidnuptune with several followers. Isolated for several decades, the population grew and formed an organized army and political system. The first satelite communication system has been set up, and the new state has been announced to the universe.

I have no RP time yet, but this is a great idea and I may join in if I get more time.

Tango
Aalpha
Golf

OCC: well well, seems a few more famous roleplayers decided to join us. Guess this won't end too quickly...

Starcraft? Oh GOD. Please can I join please please please please please?

I'd like command of a Cerebrate, though I'd take anything that's open. Just feed me data on what I have to work with (zerglings, hydras, muts, ultras, buildings, whatever) or let me make up my own.

Oh god! Can someone be more oblivious! Read the dang posts before yours!
Just read the dang guidlines and post! That's all! No begging obessively required!

OOC: I would love to play and I know imn going to sound bitchy but dont most of these armies seem riduculosly large? I think I saw some one who had 1 Million battle cruisers.So i would play if the armies got down to a manageble size.Im not asking you to change... well i am but if you want to go ahead, go for it, and just 100,000 thousand dark templars is way to many. Just saying my piece, have fun.

OCC: um, no. Not if this is the ENTIRE force of that particular nation. I would be ambarassed if there were only two hundred marines in the UED, in total.

EDIT: Hold on, refiguring totals.

Okay.

Cerebrate Gorak of the planet Mar Alta
Total population (excluding structures, though they are effectively living): 125,000,000,000.

390 million Overlords (they're ALL OVER SPACE, after all)
54 million Zerglings
28 million Scourge
19.6 million Hydralisks
15.2 million Mutalisks
4.2 million Devourers
3.2 million Guardians
800,000 Ultralisks
35,000 Defilers
15,000 Queens

Ultra units (like Torrasque, Kerrigan) and experimental units:

Bnnu (Hydralisk/Defiler Hybrid), charged with defending the planetary Hive on Mar Alta
Yttargh (GIGANTIC overlord controlling front-line forces)
Vassu, Vessu, Vissu (triplet Hydralisks engineered to assist Yttargh in defending the Hive)
The Gnashers (A troop of about 25,000 elite Zerglings that utilize acid-formed steel armor in place of their natural hide armor and titanium edges on their claws)

Hive consists of a hive structure, mineral caverns (only accessible by burrowing about two kilometers down or through the mouths of the caves, over which the central hive is built), vespene mined from a rather volcanically active moon, about three hundred small outposts scattered across the local systems. I'll look into which systems as the RP goes on.

I try to keep the modded units down to a minimum, and if they have no place here, so be it. Let me know, please!



History: The Cerebrate now known as Gorak was freshly formed, though he was effectively as old as any other cerebrate due to the knowledge all cerebrates inherit from the Overmind. The armies had been born while the Cerebrate was planned and took shape. Gorak was allowed to choose his base planet, and he took a world near this conflict, Mar Alta. The species inhabiting the planet were deemed useless and were slaughtered. The planet's four moons were colonized, with Overlords bringing in raw atmosphere and hatcheries set up to assist in growing Gorak's forces. Two more planets were colonized, and Gorak was beginning to send tendrils out into nearspace when the Overmind informed him of the growing conflict nearby.

Yea, but if you actually READ the posts afore yours then you'd know it wasn't an RP but a sign up. Not to mention the fact that the word OCC was in the title. But, it is still nice to have another Zerg....though I myself am not Zerg...its still nice to have more than one guy doin all the Zerg work...

So I can just run on in, then? I'm reading posts where people are getting "accepted".

You could wait for that if you want, may not come till tomarrow though...

I don't think that Cent.Mass has been checking the sign up lately. He didn't even approve mine, but I posted in the RP and he didn't mind- I think he just wants to make sure that everyone playing is signed up. I doubt he really needs to approve it- unless you aren't following the rules laid down. As long as your mostly Starcraft (with very few outside techs), and you've posted your base of operations, population.. blah blah.. I think you'll be fine to RP.

Also! Guys! Get more active! Between the two posts that were directly after my first, it was about a week until someone posted! Be active! Otherwise it won't be exciting and worthwhile.

Name of Nation: Kel-Morian Remnant

300,000 Wraiths
1 Arbiter

Background Information: At the end of the Brood Wars, the armies of the Kel-Morian Combine lay broken and bloody on the fields of Tarsonis, the capital of the former Conferacy. One general, Paul Aleksander, decided to take his troops and flee from Kerrigan while they still had time. He gathered a fleet and departed the Koprulu Sector. On their way, they united with dissidents from the Umojan Protectorate, increasing the size of their population and military. They came to the Haleon system, and settled on the third planet from the binary star. After their civilazation had flourished for severla years, they made a startling discovery: a crashed Protoss Arbiter lay dormant in the mountains. There was no evidence of a crew, and the ship was in full working order. As their scientists began to unravel the secrets of the Protoss, the Remnant began to make their tentative return to Koprulu, to discover what had befallen Humanity...

Where is everyone?

Oh, there is mentioned the first RP on the second page. I'm pretty sure thats the area people are most interested in at the moment, Sixth Reich sir! Wait a sec, reich...thats something about Germany right? Something about Nazi germany being the third reich...think it said that in my social studies two book...

Interesting. I'll be Terran, they're pretty popular and from the thread, it looks like they're getting hammered.

Name: Umoja-Reagan Remnants
Race: Terran
Leader: Director Lamaar Keys
System(s): Koprulu Sector
Capital Planet: Umoja

History: Umoja was one of the first three planets colonized by the Terrans, being one of the planets the exile ships had crash-landed upon. The struggle between the Protoss, Terrans, and Zerg took their toll on the humans as a whole, and Umoja was nearly wiped clean of Terrans in the conflicts. The Umoja-Reagan Remnants are all that is left of the culture of Umoja, including some exiles and travelers from other planets and factions. What they lack in size they make up for in tactical efficiency... after all, when you don't have much to work with, you make every shot count.

Population: 32.5 million

90000 Marines
45000 Firebats

OOC: Why does everyone always learn about the "Third Reich" but not the First or Second (or the unoffical Forth by a bunch of National Socialists in Argentinia)?

Reich ( P ) Pronunciation Key (rk, r)
n.
The territory or government of a German state, as the Holy Roman Empire, or First Reich, from the ninth century to 1806; the German Empire, or Second Reich, from 1871 to 1919; the Weimar Republic, from 1919 to 1933; or the Third Reich, from 1933 to 1945.

Name of Nation: Polacras
Race:Protoss
Leader: Taleratul
System(s): Polari, Filidill, and Quetzaol

5 million dark archons
5 million archons

Fleet Size:
20 million scouts
15 million corsairs
10 million shuttles
7.5 million carriers
5 million arbiters
3 million observers

Background Information: The protoss of Polacras were a small remnant of the Rogue Tribes that still held some belief in the Khala and the Conclave. These remnant went off on their own. They later populated the systems of Polari, Filidill, and Queztoal. They learned to combine their two roots to form the same power that was re-created so long after to defeat the Zerg. The Polacri, as they were called, lived peacefully and undisturbed by the rest of the universe.

Huff puff huff puff!

Sorry i was gone so long! I had pressing matters!

Anyhoo, um...everyone who signed up...uh...acepted.

Besides, Maekrix said was right. All its really for is some stats and so people just dont jump in too and fro.
