Ok heres the plan, A planet simular to earth in tech, size, atmosphere etc has been picked for a major colony for My Empire. So back in say the early 50's of this planets calander a ship was sent in for recon, inside the ship was 5 Space Marines (simular to the WH40K space marines).
One nation of this planet detected it and shot it down, tho it was hard since it was faster and harder to lock on to then anything elce ever seen. Once it was recovered and covered up research into the UFO has it was called started. the weapon system was complex and you could figure out how it worked tho you had an idea what it was (plasma cannon) tho the 2 missiles you did know. They were fusion missiles but the power of the missiles was out of anyones mind (3 gt warheads) and they used radioactive elements never seen befor on the planet. Along with that the Armor of the ship was extremely heavy and strong also made out of a metel never seen befor nor able to be reporduced but with research you figure out that high explosives are effective in large amounts.
What scares you most of all tho is the "aliens" inside, after removeing the armor you find out that the aliens are infact human or as human can be. You descover that theyare vampiric in nature, have 2 hearts, extra lung and more implants that are way over you heads. tho over time you might know what it does just not how to make them, along with this only 1 of them lived.
No matter what you tryed nothing worked, He managed to shake them off (drugs, posions etc). Torture didnt work and basicly you couldnt get much out of him, infact you couldnt even get him out of his armor since he was awake when you found him and he had the strength of 20 men infact it was a fluke you captured him.
tho you did find out who ever he was he was vary religus, prayed to the hand of the gods the Empress, the machine god, they were the elites of a massive empire, they could eat anything, they could go with out sleep for days tho you later find out thats cos of an implant shifting the brain funtions about. sooner or later the marine kills himself by corseing a massive fire killing him and some of your men, the only thing that was left was the armor of the marine but even that was beond any from of research.

now the year is 2005 and the world has moved on, wars won and lost, nations devided and so forth.
one day (say may 21st) sats detected somthing exiting a space anoamaly near the moon, the thing was massive nearly 4km long followed by a handful of other ships (some nearing 1.5km long and others just under a km long). the objects travel to the planet staying in a vary high orbit around the planet set out to destroy all sats in the sky followed by a massive droping of small pods, 100s of fighters leave the ship and head out to attack fighters, bases etc. Also in the nation that caputred the UFO gets hit hard, the base were it was stored gets hit HARD as drop pods hit the ground. From them just under 200 of the Space marines apear and ready to fight.

Now the rules for the RP:
1. An Anti Tank weapon is still effective on Mecha, Armor etc even if it means they might need to use more them normal.
2. NO FT nation can do Orbital bombardment, the only OB will be commited by me on Targets designed to push the story ahead.
3. NO shields, no nukeing at random, no ranting, no complaining, no flameing etc.
4. Allainces with me are possible but you would need to somehow figure out how to understand us, we may understand you but it dont mean you understand us.

Now the RP would starts when my ships apear, it would take 2 RP days for my ships to get into orbit and attack. The only nation that would know who we are and what we are going to do would be the nation that captured the UFO. now your going to have a problem, if you attack with out warning the world might think you started the war, if you do nothing and people find out you get the blame, try and warn them but then explain why you kept a secret such as this all to yourself and never shared the fruits of your research.

Ok now you will RP as your own nation as it is on NS tho i do ask if your a muti billion pop nation maby cut it down (eg if your 3 billion maby cut it to 1-1.5 billion). here is where you decided any allainces, major powers etc.

Ideas welcome, plase note not all FT nations have to be invadeing they can help the mod tech nations. now if this works out aswell as i hope it does we could turn this into a NS earth of some kind.

I am an FT Nation that uses Gentically engineered Soldiers.
Could I join? My Nation does come from a different Galaxy but we use Wormhole technology to travel to different Galaxies, I was wondering if I could send in a probe via wormhole in this location.

Well, I need a way to start using all my mech regiments and galaxies in combat. I suppose this idea can work, if you throw out the 'NS earth' idea. There's enough of those falling flat on their faces as it is.

And we'd act as more the defenders/guardians rather than aggressors, which would make for some huge FT v. FT battles on a MT planet. (Anyone that knows what 'Tukayyid' means knows what I mean.

..course New Avalon during the FedCom Civil War is just as good.)

..call it a tag as well.

well the idea to make it into an earth is only there if this thing go's to the point where it might be needed.

Spread the word on this, i want idea and as i sead all are welcome, and Chronosia im glade to see you took an interest.

BUMP.

Anyway, a few ideas ive come upwith for this rp. Simple ones will be that the mod tech nations will start to advance a hell of alot quicker, start back engineering things (weapons, MEcha, Down dropships etc) and maby if the nation who captured the UFO in the backstory holds off the assault might learn what the Geneseed in the necks of each marine are and start researching into makeing there own Super trooper of corse yours would be as tuff as ours but you get the idea.

Also since im planning this to take years (the war that is) im planning makeing it so that if the mod tech nations do start to band together they might start makeing there own Ships, so i was thinking for the RP if the first assault fails (what i plan it to do) reinforcements come in months/years after that in grater number from within the system.

I assume the aliens will experiment with modern tech and actual humans themselves; I'm invisioning Haemonculus (Dark Eldar) style labs....I could have some fun with this. I will of course play as invaders

well yes i would expect nothing less from you (and myself) tho the real reason my empire invades this planet is due to a high Sorce of Hyperium the ore we need to fuel our Hyperspace Jump engines deep near the core of this planet.

Also this isnt going to be earth, if we want to make a map well i will make a big blue box and put a grid on it and the mod tech nations can decide where they want to go (tho someone elce could do that since i dont always have alot of time on my hands).

I am a FT nation, but i can RP both MT and FT without any problem, and I gladly join up.

But, I think it'll make more sense if there are ONLY Imperial forces invading (Space marines, Imperial guard, sisters of battle) instead of SM's AND Eldar/Darkeldar. Otherwise i think it'll be messy...but i don't know, it's your RP.

If we only have Imperial forces, we could do this: Everyone who wants to play as invading FT has to RP a Space marine Chapter. What do you say?

Was using the Haemonculus as a reference to how brutal I tend to be in my RP's; besides; if these dudes are IoM then they can do with a touch of zealous fury ;)

well this isnt a WH40K type RP, the Space marines i use are my own to a dagree (yes most of them are the same but there is small differentces) so i dont really care who trys to invaded (its not set to 2 sides, invaders vs the planet). The idea is to set it so that the world would be as much as it could be like in RL, nations dont trust each other they might not all decided to fight but to surrender or even try and make allainces. some who arnt being attack yet might take advatange of it and the aliens well who knows if one group see another invadeing they might find it useful as a battle ground.

This RP is rather open to ideas at the moment but i do want to try and keep the core ideas there (the vary open ideas that are open to change in some ways).

Helveticuz if you want to RP as a MT thats cool, its like i said we all use our NS stats unless your the mod tech and you have say 3 billion it would be cool to tune it down. And FT are at a disvandtage since they have a vary limited amount of resorces, tho it would be cool to keep the FT invaders down to a max of 3 people FT defenders to about 3 people maby 2 and the mod techs i dont mind.

I am like 2020s-2050s tech and would like to vollenteer to become a defender of planet "Pseudo-Earth" (or whatever you want to call it)

I don't have fighting ships capable of going much farther than orbit, but my fighters are equipped with recoiless pretty rapind firing mass-drivers (Good for poking holes in cockpits though)

I have rudimentary powered armor tech, and my infantry are pretty highly trained and well equipped (a titanium alloy penetrator at mach 2.6 can peirce most armor pretty easily, short of a tank or etc) for their time period

You could be the nation that took down the recon ship would explain why you would be more advanced then anyone elce.

Hmmm..This sounds absolutely scrumtrilescent! I'm MT, with a post modern (barely) marine corps that's more like an army, a mahoosive (960 ship) navy and a good sized air-force. No army, but I don't need one, seeing as i'm an island nation.
This is also my application...
Helveticuz
21-04-2005, 18:15
Sure, i could play as an MT defender, doesn't really matter.
Just a question though....would it be RL nations or made-up ones? If RL it would be crazy to have someone else than the US as the nation who found the pod.
Anyway, it think this will work out pretty good. Maybe it'll get a little messy, but we'll survive that.

22-04-2005, 03:52
well since this is not Earth then there is no US or England or Russia its your own nation, if your nation is basicly england then thats fine but otherwise its NS nation Stats with your own nation (unless your going to be a MT nation and your NS stats state your a 3 billion plus nation then you might want to tone it down a little).

So um....When did you plan on getting this started?
CorpSac
25-04-2005, 17:08
when we all agreed what would could and will happen, what other rules are needed, if people want to be standing alone, fighting each other and the aliens or if they all want to join as one.

Also what shape is the planets surface, does it look like earth, were are each defending nation and ofcorse who has WMD who does not.

Then after that we will need an Army list (how meny you have, how big, how well trained, how bigs your navy, air force) and Key city names.

IF you want you can put a small description of your lands, who it borders, what it has etc etc but remember the only reason my people come to this planet is due to a Ore that you dont know about, so then where will this ore be will the story coninue with more of my forces comeing later on if we get beaten back and youve descovered why we're coming and you've started to use it. Maby if thats the case, anything like down dropships, weapons, tanks, troops etc get research boosting your Tech level a hell of alot.

oh and if you rellly want the name of the planet.

I'm thinking like earth (just to keep it simple) with the land to water ratio and size and all, and I motion for the name Excelsia.
I'll post all my nation stuff (and a rather interesting rp opportunity w/ the aliens b/c of some special circumstances of my leader) later
