Galactic Communication ~ War Declared.
The Galactic Empire
http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/4/45/Imperial_Emblem.gif
Open War!
The Imperial Palace after much thought and consideration has finaly come upon the regretful choice that open war is now necessary between the nation of Godular and its extreme supporting elements.The Imperial Navy, after suffering unwanted and barbaric attacks upon civilian infastructure, has no choice but to begin retalitory strikes.
The Empire has never delcared war forthright, war has always been declared upon us, we have always been attacked out of some “claimed” moral superiority, a “moral superiority” which has cost the lives of 220,000,000 innocent civilians. It is not us throwing the Galaxy into flames, it is not us murdering children....
The Imperial Palace would like to thank the nation of Germanische Zustande for providing the name of itself and Ankhmet as supporters of Godular, and are therefore enemies of the Empire, civilization and freedom at large.
As such a state of war now exists between the entire Galactic Empire and these nations...
Under the Imperial Defence Ratification Act, the Supreme Chancellor is now calling all nations within the Galactic Empire to lend their hands to this cause. All fleets are to begin assembling for impending campaigns at designated assembly points.
The Empire is however merciful. We wish to offer the nation of Ankhmet, who has been bullied into these unfortunate circumstances parlay, so that they may better position themselves in the political arena.
The Imperial Palace
“Well Admirals it seems we have a slight task ahead of us.” Admiral Harrel chuckled. “Finaly the emperor has seen fit to make an open declaration of war on these scum.”
“Quite so.” Blathe agreed. “But we must not get overconfident... too much. I know they are but three quaint nations, born in the recesses of space, but we must first of all flush them out. We must first of all find their homes and civilians and then, have them join our organisation.”
“The empror is not going to exterminate?”
“No he has expressly foribidden it.For now however he wishes to expand the organisation, and for that we need their civilian population centres intact... for the msot part of course.”
“Of ocurse.” Harrel echoed.
“We are going to have to take a firm hand, expecialy since the recent attacks upon Neo Zeta. I've ordered a graviton sensor sweep to be completed every three minutes around all Imperial worlds. The same method of attack won't work again.....
High above the Imperial Centre Warships, military vessels, and mercenaries were rallying to the new cruscade.

OOC: Since you last visited Normandeicht as a Shivan, I'm not letting you have its coordinates as the Empire. You'll have to RP getting the information from some other nation which does know (ESUS Members).
It would appear the Galactic Empire is now pouting over the exact thing they ordered upon Godular. Would you like a bottle, O Galactic Infant?
The UFGZ finds this declaration of war quite comical. The Empire is a most practiced deceiver, a highly cunning foe, a well-propagandised nation. For instance, when has the Emperor ever cared about his subjects? Only when it suits him best. This empire shall be weak; its framework already cracked.
You have gone too far this time. And you will soon see war's folly.
Pray to whatever false gods you have, for you will need Divine Intervention to survive.

OOC: Sith, I have a weapon I'm going to use in my civil war. One of those five top-secret weapons in my sig. I'm going to RP it's use really quick on one of my planets, so that I may use it on yours. The device eliminates an entire solar-system. :D

If you insist but. I will break out the Death Star. Oh well prepare to die GZ.
Oh and the location of GZ systems will not be a probalem thanks to the information provided by the Empires sleeper ally Mentallinauts.

The Borg and Unified Sith were not always on such good terms... in fact in their first actual meeting they were on opposide sides of a war. But the collective itself was loyal to the empire and takes each alliance it's a part of VERY seriously.
This was their chance to prove it. 1/5th of the Borg Armada were awaiting a go-ahead from Unified sith to attack Germanische Zustande in the name of the Empire.
The Queen-tier had already approved the attack as the beings within the monstrosities of steel continued to go about their buisness. Germanische Zustande would be assimilated...
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!

The Dominion was in bad shape after the attack. The Comand and Controle was in ruin and the peoples faith in the goverment low. However the Jem'Hadar cared not and were ready to fight
2/5 of The Dominions Fleets would be ready for war. Tho the question was how long could the now destroyed econemy support a war....

OOC: Used to be apart of the Galactic Empire, until I lost the link to the boards >-< I want to rejoin, if thats possible...and yes, I did change mine from a Star Republic to a Galactic Empire, want to try it out.
IC:
It had been some time since Anagonia had heard from the Galactic Empire, some time before Komodren bowed down to the Emperor himself. They had a purpose back then, they had a central point to look forward to. Everything was in place, all thier people and their military grew happier, healthier, and everything seemed....good.
Yes....it had been some time.
Now, with this message of war, and of his Empire not knowing weather it still remains with the Emperor, represenitives of the 45 Star Systems that make up Anagonias newly-fromed Galactic Empire came together and discussed the choices. In the end, knowing of Anagonias past and prosperity with the true Galactic Empire, all 45 Represenitives and the Leader himself jointly sighed a message of support, and of asking to come back to the Empire of old.
Message from the Galactic Empire of Anagonia - Nova Kretani Solar System - Anagonian Senate
Dear Emperor,
It has come to our attention that a war is brewing with the true Galactic Empire. We send our fleets full support, and our peoples best wishes towards your cause.
Once before Anagonians served under you, Komodren bowing as your loyal servants and Anagonians saluting their Emperor. It is now our universal wish of all Star Systems within Anagonian control to come back to the Empire, to once again serve the Emperor who allowed us to prosper in a literal Golden Age. We wish once again, to changce back to a Star Republic, and rejoin the Galactic Empire.
Our Leader is willing to discuss any terms you may have, and discuss anything you may have concerns over.
Thank you for your precious time.

Arfus Sealous, the emperor of Joseph Seal, looked out over the Galactic docking bay, his emperor "palace" was over looking. Cloned Stormtroopers were marching into the troop transports, which would lift off into the stars above.
Sealous sighed... it was war apparently. He didn't like war, but he had to do it for the Galactic Empire. It was his duty as an Imperial member to chip in with his own fleet...
Besides, they were clones... bred for fighting and fighting alone. His own thoughts frightened him. It must have been that... some would say barbaric instinct still hidden within. He just kept silent, and looked out once more to the massing fleet.
The Dark Palace: Huntaer
Emperor Trilkan Stared out the windows of his chambers as he sat upon his Throne. He commanded the Kirtir Empire, now dubed as The Galactic Empire of Huntaer. His new apprentice, Darth Aelikes slowly walked into the emperor's chambers. Aelikes neeled to his master. "Rise, my friend. What news do you bring my lord?"
Aelikes breathed heavily through his oxygen mask through ancient wounds from the Huntarian Civil war, "It is confirmed my lord. The Galactic Empire has declaired war upon Godular and it's band of rebels."
"Good. Send our fleet formations to the Chancelor."
"It has already been done, Master. I've delivered the fleet's statistics to the GE just after I recieved the news."
"Excellent Lord Aelikes. What news from our troops?"
"Clone Facilities are up 150% production capacities. We're creating more Bolter ammo as we speak. Ship production has increased 200% from our Forge Worlds. Our Kirtir Warriors and Knights are prepaired as always. I also have news about the Tyrant sir."
"What about her?"
"It's fully opperational and should be ready for war by the end of the day."
"Good job Aelikes," Aelikes stares at his feet and shuffles, "what's wrong my apprentice?"
"It's that. Your old apprentice."
"Pah. Deshoonde? He died in the Phantom War, died by our own creations of fear. His fleet has also perished in the war. Why would you be worried about him?"
"Sir, there are disturbing rumors over the ForceNet that his fleet is alive and he is as well. Another thing would be that it's also rumored he's joined with the Malkir. They may help aid Godular."
"Aelikes, the Alliance is the least of my worries. They may have an Eclipse on their side, but we have newer and more powerfull ships then they do. Don't think about it too much my apprentice. They will die."
"Of course my lord. Pardon my petty worries," Aelikes then bowed to his master and walked out of the throne room.
The War ships of Huntaer ready for their attack and conoslidate above Huntaria. The Alert status has been raised to the highest level, and security has been trippled. It is an all out war, and the Huntarian war lords were ready....
OOC: Due to the recent announcement of war, I'm increasing the discount offer at my store fronts for GE members to 25% so that nations may add on more ships to their fleets to fight the war.

***Video Sent to all nations involved***
Starts out with a view of a great tower. It zooms in on the very top and reveals Master Kalgar standing at an opening. The massive capital city of Gronde is in the backround. It is raining lightly. Kalgar begins to speak:
"For years now, the Galactic Empire has attempted to impose its will uppon the galaxy. This evil union, containing Sith, Shivans, and Chaos alike, have long since attempted to dominate the universe. They have crossed the line and have awaken a sleeping dragon, the Alliance of Naggaroth!"
View changes and zooms in on the flag of Gronde and the Emblem of the AoN. Kalgar's voice resumes:
"Emperor of the Unified Sith: You have bitten off far more than you can chew with us. You may believe that this is your time, and that the GE will go on forever. However, I can already hear your requiem playing."
Camera zooms slowly down to the street where thousands of space marines are marching onto Battle Barges while Kalgar continues.
"I suppose that if there is one thing that to Galactic Empire does understand, it would be might, power. You can only hope that you respect that which you understand..."
Kalgar continues while the camera view changes to a view of the orbit, where large grouping of warships are forming.
"A line has been drawn. If you cross it, you will feel the wrath of our power. And this time, there will be no holding back and there will be no mercy."
Visual ends with a view from orbit looking down on the planet as the Battle Barges depart.
***Video Ends***
ooc> That would be our official statement. I had to be creative. :p
A wide band all frequency all known means of communication ripples through space, the power burning through all but the highest power transmitters. A multitonal voice, speaking without inflection or accent in Basic, tears across the galaxy.
"Know this, Galatic Empire. You have fought you last war, taken your last life and imperiled your last nation. From now on we are at war, a war that will end your pathetic existance once and for all. You will pay with your lives for this affront, you should have never messed with powers that exceed yours by so very much. Good bye."
There is a tone of reprimand and harsh anger in these words, however they are resolute and are imbued with a sense of irrepressable strength. The New Empire of Scellia has declared war on the GE.
OOC: If they are not in your sig can we have people post links to factbooks and maps that would be common knowledge. Especially maps, those are most important.

Speaking of which, I need to update my fact book again due to recent changes in command, and changes in the Huntarian Fleet.
My men are hungering for the blood of war. This should be interesting.

"Your time is up. All empires fall. Now it is your time."
The United Systems of Stellar Nations officialy declares war on those GE members that have declared war upon Glodular and their allies.
"And pray to whatever gods you worship to save you, because ours will not."

16-07-2005, 22:37
The Galactic Republic of Anagonia, now joined into the true Galactic Empire, has declared that it will get involved in the war when called upon by the Mighty Emperor or any of his trusted aids.
The 45 Star Systems within the Galactic Republic and their respective races will all gladly contribute to the cause when needed.
However, for the time being we will wait for our orders from the Mighty Emporer and will do nothing against his will.

OOC: Well, I know I've been researching how to reproduce one, and I'd be willing to give it up, for a price...
OOC: In the original SW the Sun Crusher and all associated tech was lost permenantly. The SC was dropped down a black hole and Qui Xux had her memory erased by Kyp Durron and all files pertaining to its construct was lost. The easiest way to kill Sun Crushers is to catch them in a tractor beam and drag them to the nearest convienent black hole.
Mini Miehm
16-07-2005, 22:51
OOC: It can't survive black holes though. And it's not automated either.
OOC: But it's still the toughest ship out there, in the books the only thing that could stop it was a black hole, although I think there are enough black-hole weapons now for that to be less of a strength than most might think.
OOC: I am assuming that this takes place at least... a few months after the Battle of Thorn or so...
The Imperials already know our response: Send your fleets. Send your armies. Send them to their doom.
By the end of this war, Freespace supporters will run unhindered throughout the galaxy, toppling every remaining vestige of the withered regime that was the Empire.
You know where we are. Thorn awaits you. Send your armies. Send your fleets. Try to stop us.

OOC My country has the capability of creating a Sun Crusher and we did but in the war between Chron and me I handed it over to US as a show of good favor. I however know how to beat it since I constructed it. Trust me I did research into the physics behind it and it has few more weaknesses than the books mentioned.

By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an Eidolon, named NIGHT,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule-
From a wild clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of SPACE- out of TIME.
- Edgar Allan Poe
Outskirts of Jordaxian space, outer sol System.
There is a castle, floating in the darkness of the Eternal Empires oceans. Perfectly formed, a relic from a long-dead era. Made of stone and glass, it existed simply in the void. On the domed battlements, guards marched attentively, spears across their chests, their uniforms revealing the eccentric nature of their master. Shaped like playing cards, they kept a stern vigil on the walls. Deep in the bowels of the castle, staff scuttled to and fro carrying out their duties. The gentle rumble of activity reverberated from the walls, an ambient noise. And in the centre, there sat a man. Red capes enshrouded his body, a childish grin spread across his face and a jesters hat on his head. His hall was full of people dressed in rich finery, eating pig, sipping wine from their goblets. A merry atmosphere. But beneath the happy face and lively atmosphere, the King was thinking. Glancing at his watch, the smile turned upside down. A quarter past thirteen. He shot up from his seat and shouted “Your welcome is officially worn out! You have taken advantage of my immeasurable generosity for one night too many. I BANISH YOU FROM THE LAND!!!”
Nothing happened. He sat back down and with a weary resignation, he said “Kill them all! They do not take the edicts of the Topsy Turvy King with the proper seriousness befitting the nobility of my realm. I will establish a new nobility with the proper respects for my will.” the bells on his hat jangled up and down. From the corners of the hall, guards entered brandishing their spears menacingly. He watched the reactions of his guests, and his smile re-appeared. He burst out into peals of laughter, stretching out upon his throne.
“You give me attention now, I see! Much better. As I was saying, extra honours for all! But listen to me for a moment. The realm I rule is uneasy. Baronies and provinces march to war, and it makes me sad. A sad panda! Woe is me. And so, lacking a simple resolution, it is my duty to choose my allegiance, and decide the fate of this conflict. But I am prepared, never worry, your King will make an informed choice! A guard with two folders walked up to The Topsy Turvy King, and handed them to him. As the nobles watched, he flicked through one folder, then the other. The tension in the air was palpable.
“Palpatine.... I like the cut of his jib! Judging by his permanent record this is a man who takes great pride in his work. A young go-getter after my own heart. You must send him a postcard poste haste, informing him of his salvation from his hording foes! Tell him he can thank me later.”
One deep bow later, and the guard scurried off to prepare the postcard from the Kingdom of Misrule. It carried a simple, succinct message to “that fine, upstanding man.”
“Greetings to you, oh pillar of the galactic community... might I be the first to wish you a happy Empire day this year! I hope you feast on a suckling pig to celebrate. Enclosed find a suckling pig. Onto business however. It has been noted by your good chum the Topsy Turvy King that there has been an unfortunate case of the old hostilitis amongst your other playmates, and it is with great sorrow that I find myself having to set things to rights. But never fear, a playground scuffle is one of those things that all people go through. Give as good as you get, that's the key!
With Cake
The Topsy Turvy King.”
“Wonderful. Back to the feasting, the night is young and we have bellies to fill! Huzzahs and promotions for the man that brings me the golden pig from the banquet table!” With that, the king stood up on his plush chair, and done a little dance to celebrate the protection of his provinces.
Imperial Palace, Pluto, Heart of the Eternal Empire.
An emergency meeting had been called. The warrior caste assembled again. It had been quite the month for galactic catastrophy. Now the Galactic Empire was being attacked. Again. It certainly wasn't to Jordaxian tastes, that much was certain, but the potential power vacuum was even less desirable. As such, action had to be taken. Once more, Admiral Daibai was chairing the meeting.
“The Galactic Empire appears to be under some kind of threat.” he rejoined, after several hours of talks. “Nothing that they can't handle, supposedly, but the position they occupy has a certain amount of responsibility assigned to it. As such, the Eternal Empire has an interest to safeguard there, and we should... ensure that no unpredictable factors enter the equation. To that end, it is my proposition that we send a communique to the Galactic Empires leadership offering them Jordaxian aid, specifically her military assets. Are we agreed with this course of action?”
The assorted judges of the warrior caste nodded their aggreement.
“Excellent. I also propose that the Judicial vessels Wraths Blossom and the Little Wolf be readied along with a not inconsequential number of Jordaxian ships. I would believe that these ships will be needed for more than a show of force, so it should be ensured that they have skilled crew at their helms.”
The end of the meeting was signalled, and the Judges and Kings went about assembling a full scale Jordaxian battlefleet.
OOC: Uhh, yeah. Was that public knowledge or secret, it was hard to tell. If it was public then check your TGs, if it wasn't then ignore the TG I sent you.

"I have seen the dark universe yawning
Where the black planets roll without aim,
Where they roll in their horror unheeded,
Without knowledge or luster or name."
-- H. P. Lovecraft, Nemesis
An Empire stretches across many systems, enslaving countless worlds under an iron grip; burnign others clean in sacrifice to obscene and terrible gods that dwell behind the curtain of our material world. It reaches forht with clawed hands, and honeyed words, drawing others into its obscene web; to become a feast for its bloated legions...
For the foundation of this Empire is not stone and steel; it is flesh and blood, and blackest faith. This is the Chronosian Imperium. At it's heart, Chronosia Prime; knowing no other name before it was christened thus. Spires reach from the hallowed and cursed ground, high into space; linking to great docks and shipyards; immense mazes of defense networks and assault platforms. The first moon is mostly mechanized; an immense, orbitting forge, that gleams like a diamond in the blazing skies. The very Earth is sundered; immense structures dwarf continents, awe-inspiring forges, armories, training facilities and workshops stretch deep into the ground. One such structure, is the Imperial Palace; stretching from near the worlds core, to its zenith near the upper atmosphere; dwarfing the Western continent. It is here that the Emperor holds his court; sustained by sacrifice, fed by faith...
His God's demand it so. And it is here that he prays to them...
He cast his hand into the flame; flickering energy coruscating about his claws as he carresses the flame. "Lord Khorne; Bringer of War and Blood; Hear my cry" The flames blaze red...
"Lord Nurgle; Pestilent Master of Death and Disease; Grant me strength" The red flame fades, suffused with green, shimmering grotesquely.
"Great Tzeentch; Lord of Magick and shaper of change; grant me your vision..." The flames burst into magickal purple, seething bands of flame that leap, and dance...
"Beautified Slaanesh; Bane of the Eldar, bringer of pleasure absolute! I ask that your visage be granted me; I, your silver tongued servant."
Pink flame crackles to life; as runes blaze about him, incensed by this summoning...
He stretches out his hand, and the Scrying Stones about the room crakcle to life; raising from the ground, chains holding them as they hover in the air, showing much; whole worlds cleansed of life; great warriors clashing in battle...And a declaration of war; and several other declarations that brought smiles to aged lips; black lips that slid away from sharped fangs.
Communications networks hummed as the Emperor's voice boomed across space and time.
"We are the Imperium; Blessed of the Ruinous Powers; those who worship the true Gods! We shall stand by our allies against whatever threat. The hand of doom and death shall carress our enemy before they are destroyed; the very fires of the warp shall consume their souls. None shall be granted life in the light of the Emperor; all shall feed the Daemons. We commend your souls to the Gods!" He cackled. "I am Marcus De Drakan; the great Daemon Emperor...Whoso stands against the Imperium shall find a fate worse even than that of the warp; they shall languish forever within the blade, Lifesbane; to feed the swords obscene hungers..."

Never knew my mind was such so... judicial. Anyway, I'll keep an eye on this. Sure I don't have any space ships, but this should be interesting. Oh, and let's all be OOC civil about this, as in, no taunting OOCly, no "I have teh l337 technologies", no "your allies are teh suck", no mocking. Yes I will butt in when this thing starts to go to Heck in a handbasket, yes when. Thank you and good day.

The flag fluttered in the strong wind blowing through XFB Shilo, the lone outpost of a planet of the same name that represented Xessmithian interests in this galaxy. Colonel Jackson kept his hand on his cap to keep it from flying off as he walked towards the command center, the cold wind chilling him to the core. The first drops of rain started pelting him as he reached to door. He entered quickly and released a sigh of relief.
A young lieutenant walked up to him, "Sir we received a transmission from Coruscant about five minutes ago. It's older than that but our hyperwave transceiver is on the fritz."
Jackson nodded, the transceiver they had bought was an antique taken from a Lucrehulk battleship from the original clone wars. It didn't always work but it was cheap to obtain. The lieutenant handed him a flimsi which he quickly read. His face was pale by the end, the GE had declared war and nearly the entire galaxy would be involved.
"Get this sent to Xess and tell them they'd better think about sending re-enforcments. We could be in for a world of hurt."

Winter Kay watched as the Imperiums Fleet gathered. On the ground, The Armies stood. Black and Orange Armoured Space Marines numbered their thousands, while every now and then the White of a Storm Trooper Regiment was seen. Black White and Orange, these where the colours that the feild held, with Tanks, Walkers and ships aplenty. Winter Kay smiled, these where but the first. This was mearly the Armies of Winterbourn and the Moidart, other lords would be assembeling their own forces. In space, Star Destroyers sat ponderesly next to the Imperial Warships. Presently, Smaller less powerful ships filtered into the area, and the might of the Shivian Imperium Mustered.
To the Emperor
I am gathering my forces, I will follow your orders, we have the entire armies joining, most garrisions are down to a bare minimum, this was shall be the greatest in history.

The Cassiopeians own Giant Ship the Imperium Ultra Star Destroyer (http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/SW/Imperium.gif) was now ready to head for Godular, escourted by 2 Eclipse Class Super Star Destroyers (http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/SW/Eclipse.gif) and 23 Triobite Class Frigates (http://wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/OtherGenres/gunstar.gif) 3,391 Raven Class Starfighters (http://wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/OtherGenres/x-302.jpg) and 1,928 Shaman Class Starfighters were in the deck of the Ship, alone with 3,000,000 Battle Droids and 1,000,000 Clone Troopers.
The Crew lived in the Command Tower, the rest if the ship was for the Clones and Droids.
The Giant soon jumped into Hyperspace and heading for Godular.

The Imperiums fleets began to mobilize. Fighters flew into the hangers of carriers and Stormtroopers marched into dropships and transports. Darth Bandon watched it all from the bridge of the Leviathan an Archangel class Dreadnaught, flagship of the 7th fleet. The 7th, 8th and 9th fleets would all be sent into battle with Godulans. The Imperium was marching to war and soon they would be marching over their enemys corpses.
A message was sent to the Emperor

"So it has come to blows, has it?" The Emperor asked idly as he slid down into his nutrient bath. The lukewarm water felt so good to his ancient joints and emaciated limbs. Indeed, he for reasons his own had chosen to forgo taking a new body. Instead, he preferred to keep his original one alive for as long as possible. The effect of that being that his once virile body was reduced to what is essentially a desiccated husk that was once a man.
"Yes, My lord. What are we going to do about it?" Grand-Admiral Mertens replied. He had been summoned to the Emperor’s presence again, as he had been during the ESUS Civil War. This could only mean one thing: He was going to be told to deploy the fleet.
"Nothing. Absolutely nothing. A war between the Galactic Empire and Godular is none of our concern." The Emperor replied with a slight, hacking laugh.
"I...I thought you might like to know something. The..." The admiral paused for a moment, gathering bile and spitting it on the ground to indicate his disgust before continuing, "The 'nation' of Germanische Zustande is allied with Godular."
"What!?" The Emperor yelled, his voice raised and amplified through throughout the room. He had moved so suddenly that nutrient-mix had splashed everywhere.
"The nation of Germanische Zustande has emerged from hiding, My Lord."
"Gather the fleet. I want you to see to this personally. I shall not let those... Gah! I cannot even think of a word vile enough to describe them. They must be cleansed!" The Emperor said, his voice rising steadily. It seemed impossibly loud for such a thin, ancient old man.
"Yes, My Lord." Mertens replied before turning on his heels and marching out of the Emperor’s chamber.
Then, he sent a simple curt message to the Galactic Empire. The Human Empire of Central Facehuggeria will support you against the Godulans so that we might cleanse the taint of Germanische Zustande from the universe.
OOC: Only if you join the with us :p
Yeah, its open. Do you need background info or have you researched the current conflict and its origins?
I've not researched it, but if it's not too hard for you i'd like to know a little of whats going on.
It doesn't really matter though, I won't be sending in more then a Scout/Destroyer that's probably far inferior to most of whats here, but I could have a few Special Forces missions against some super weapons or enemy targets or something.

In response to this open hostility, Hyperspatial Travel has declared open war on Chronosia, in order to keep the Chronosian armies occupied, as so the Anti-GE Alliance can defeat the Sith.
The entire fleet, a body that has, well, never been entirely mobilised, has been mobilised, and the government officials are screaming, as well is the finance department.
42 raiding groups have been sent into Chronosia, each comprised of 20 fighters and a support frigate.
Planetary defenses have been prepared, much to the dismay of the merchants, and the popularity of the government is at an all-time low.
Peace spokesman Jyurr Hyagh, a popular diplomat, has been quoted as saying: "Sure, they may be evil twisted daemons who eat souls, but some of my best friends are Chronosians!"
Luckily, the election just happened, so the government doesn't really care what the people think. Government Pro-War spokesman Alex Hala has been quoted as saying "Chronosia has been a threat for too long. They're bigger than us, and, and cooler than us, and we don't like that at all! Kill the Chronosians!"
All 17 Chronosian Border Worlds (Planets that are ours, but directly near Chronosian ones) have been fortified, and the UHTM (United HT Marines) is at a full alert.
In other news, kittens have been declared the nation's 7th fuzziest animal, whereas the Fuzzy-Wuzzy is coming 219th.
End News Transcript.
OOC: Chronosia. Do you want to make a war thread, or should I? I've been looking foward to a good ground war, daemonic corruptions, duels, a few space battles... I think we should just fight 1v1, as huge war threads really suck, as answering 500 people takes away time that could be used for good RPing.

Repost from the other thread
IC: The prophet sensed something going wrong in the darkness it was becoming unstable and if the heartless’ mission was to be completed he would have to bring back order to the galaxy. He spent hours in the darkness finding answers and more questions. After almost a day in the darkness he sent a message to his High Summoner who was already in the region, Join this Galactic Empire, I have seen profit to this organization... bring havoc to their enemies
***
The Darkness carried the message across the galaxy to the High Summoner, Drak. Drak sent a message of understanding back to his master and ordered that the fleet be prepared for war against many enemies, Drak saw strategy in this. By helping to destroy the enemy of an enemy there would be less troubles in the end and everyone was an enemy to the heartless so the less the better.
He was onboard his flagship Dark Eminence when he received the message the fleet was still rallying for the first assault and this so called galactic war would prove beneficial in many ways. Not only would it allow the Heartless to see their enemies technologies but it would destroy more obstacles in the future.
He quickly ordered the armada to be readied, the Summoners prepared and sent a message to the leader of the Galactic Empire seeing if they would accept help. It was time the galaxy met the menace that was the Heartless.

OOC: That's the problem with a system in which both me and GZ had claim. Can't ask the other to leave very easily. By the time we were working the kinks out of the whole legality issue, y'all had gone off and provoked each other into a firefight.
The colonization fleet was still waiting for reinforcements before they could 'assert their authority' and everything had gone downhill when the Longarm arrived.
Hell, we even offered to pay the tithe FOR Kanuckistan in order to avoid a firefight, but by that point both sides were too pissed off.

Also, our navy is recieving a huge size boost in size do to population growth and this time of war. The great shipyards of the homeworld are now ready to produce that which you need.
Unfortionatly our country can not fight effectively on land. Our ships may be strong, but our grounds troops are innefective against most targets, our army being focused on mechanized fast infantry rather than heavy vehicles. Rest assured, our focus on the navy is not misplaced.
Also, we are working on farjumper hyperspace technology. Unfortionatly, we are only partly complete, but the results have nearly doubled the possible hyperspacial speeds of our current craft.
We stand apon the hinge point of our time, and victory shall be in our favor. A great flame shall emerge from the deep and engulf our enemies more totally than water engulfs the land. HAIL TO THE GREAT INFERNO!

Imperium Ultra Star Destroyer (http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/SW/Imperium.gif)
ooc:
THAT is a big ship... ::does fuzzy math::
I get about 23 people per meter of legnth in a standard SD. For the Eclipse, which is about 10X longer than the ISD using the 16000 meter legnth, there are about 44.5 people per meter, or close enough to double the # for the ISD. This could mean that as legnth is multiplied by 10, you double the number of people per meter of legnth.
So you take 260,000 meters long, multiply it by the 44.5 people per meter you get in an Eclipse, and then multiply that by 3 (since it's close to half way between 10 and 20 times longer than an Eclipse) That gives us an uber-rough estimate of 34,710,000 people onboard. THAT is a huge ship. (Of course, we have to assume that the ratios stay the same, I didn't carry a number wrong, etc)
EDIT:
ISD:
Length: 1,600 meters
Crew: ~ 37,000
Eclipse:
Length: 16,000 meters (not adjusted for revised legnth mentioned HERE (http://www.wolfsshipyard.mystarship.com/Drawings/SW/Eclipse.gif))

Yeah I knew it was BS when I first saw it. When I first saw it, I knew there was something wrong with the statistics. I tried to get the real length of the Ultra SSD, and came to ~162 km rather than 260 km. I now only use the sight now for pics when I make my TSD's.... Which if I'm assuming this is right, you're going to go up against in this war (you did side with Godular, right?).

ooc: well then, the adjusted figures come out to 14,418,000. That's still a lot of people.
using:
-44.5 people per meter in the Eclipse
-multiplyer of 2 since that figure makes it 10X larger than the Eclipse
we get 89 people per meter of legnth in this thing. Something doesn't seem to add up right about the people per meter, but it looks like a good estimate for a ship that size.
16,000 meters is the correct length. The other one is bullshit.
a side comment. Doubling the legnth of the Eclipse would eliminate the need to double people per meter as the legnth goes up by 10X. HOWEVER, this would force the Eclipse, and in turn the Ultra to be as wide and tall as an ISD, which is insane.
I think there's something not right about the figures, since by this it would mean that an eclipse is 10X longer and 2X wider and just as tall as an ISD. We know this is BS. Where does the extra space go? Do Gravity Wells and Superlasers really take up that much room?

Your math is messed up. Scaling form the picture in the EGVV the Eclipse is 16,000 m long, 3051 meters tall and 11,534 meters wide.
As for the USD, that thing is so wanky that it makes me sick to my stomach. I mean the bridge tower is 3 freakin km tall, and there's no way in hell that it could blow up a planet.

Your math is messed up. Scaling form the picture in the EGVV the Eclipse is 16,000 m long, 3051 meters tall and 11,534 meters wide.
As for the USD, that thing is so wanky that it makes me sick to my stomach. I mean the bridge tower is 3 freakin km tall, and there's no way in hell that it could blow up a planet.
ooc: That's correct on both accounts.
As for the Eclipse, it is 10X longer than an ISD. It has about double the people per meter in legnth. (It has about 20X the crew, the math works from the info I've seen) If we assume that the crew requirements for X ammount of space are the same in both craft, then the Eclipse doesn't have enough crew onboard to function.
Here's an example using purposefully wrong info for ease. Assume that an ISD is 1600 meters long, 1 meter tall, and 1 meter wide. That means per cubic meter there are about 23 people. (not possible o_O, but works for demonstration) If this ratio holds for the Eclipse, then it only takes up half it's crew with 16000 meters long, one meter tall, and one meter wide. Therefore you have to double one dimension, making it two meters wide. That is if and only if cubic area X has the same crew requirements in both ships. Replace the 'one' with the height and width of the ISD. I guess that the superlaser, the gravity wells, and the hangars lower usable area, and extreme automation reduces crew requirements.
ISD:
Length: 1,600 meters
Crew: ~ 37,000
~23 people per meter in legnth
Eclipse:
Length: 16,000 meters (10X ISD)
Crew: ~712,000 (~20X ISD)
~44 people per meter in legnth (~2X ISD)
This'll proably be my last hijack of this thread. We need to make a thread on this.

Dooman Occupied Space
The 1st Crusader Fleet, headed up by Azaroth, Arbiter of Doom, prepared to go to war. This mighty fleet would soon be engaging the enemies of the Galactic Empire in glorious combat, hopefully taking plenty of converts at the same time.
Azaroth was the first Chaos Convert, a Dooman who had been converted with the DNA of several minions of Chaos sequenced into him, granting him unnatural abilities. He was only one of several million, but that didn't matter. He was the strongest of them.
He sat upon a throne contructed of the bones of fallen enemies, the skulls still bleached red with blood. He had on armor and a hood, which draped down over his face, casting it in shadow. His firey red eyes pierced the darkness, making him appear all the more sinister.
He headed up a force of nearly one thousand ships. On his flagship, the Defiler, he would command the fall of several more hapless nations, and the conversions of their populations to the True Race.
"My lord, the fleet is ready," said the crewman at the ops station.
"Excellent..." hissed the Arbiter, his voice crackling through the air with the energies of the Warp, "Order the fleet into hyperspace. We go to war, brothers! We will taste man flesh!" he shouted, standing and pounding his chest.
The others roared joyously, as if part of somne twisted, dark celebration. The wheels of war were turning, and flame would soon consume the enemies of the Galactic Empire...

A small fleet prepared to materialise a fair distance away from the battle. Despite the war at home, winning this battle would distract the Imperial Fleet from Hyperspatial Travel itself, therefore creating the need for a support fleet to arrive and aid Gronde. (Note I've been waiting for quite some time to do this, which is my fleet travel time)
An Elite Battlegroup, the Realm's finest, began to materialise beyond the edge of the system. Gronde was beleaguered, but with aid, they may yet overcome.
(I don't have time right now to post ship names and stats, but I'll do that later)
2 Heavy Cruisers, Irigash
5 Light Destroyers Nagging One

22 Light Frigate Barely-Flying Bathtub

1 Carrier [i]Irridate
The Carrier carries 200 fighters, 175 bombers, and 135 interceptors.

OOC: Please, please, please, everyone involved, forgive me for my absence. My internet cut out about three days ago, and I just got the modem up and running again. Had to bypass my router, sadly. Anyhow, I apologize profusely, to Unified Sith and Godular in particular. I have now returned, and will post sometime tomorrow (After I read everything that's happened).

"So it has come to blows, has it?" The Emperor asked idly as he slid down into his nutrient bath. The lukewarm water felt so good to his ancient joints and emaciated limbs. Indeed, he for reasons his own had chosen to forgo taking a new body. Instead, he preferred to keep his original one alive for as long as possible. The effect of that being that his once virile body was reduced to what is essentially a desiccated husk that was once a man.
"Yes, My lord. What are we going to do about it?" Grand-Admiral Mertens replied. He had been summoned to the Emperor’s presence again, as he had been during the ESUS Civil War. This could only mean one thing: He was going to be told to deploy the fleet.
"Nothing. Absolutely nothing. A war between the Galactic Empire and Godular is none of our concern." The Emperor replied with a slight, hacking laugh.
"I...I thought you might like to know something. The..." The admiral paused for a moment, gathering bile and spitting it on the ground to indicate his disgust before continuing, "The 'nation' of Germanische Zustande is allied with Godular."
"What!?" The Emperor yelled, his voice raised and amplified through throughout the room. He had moved so suddenly that nutrient-mix had splashed everywhere.
"The nation of Germanische Zustande has emerged from hiding, My Lord."
"Gather the fleet. I want you to see to this personally. I shall not let those... Gah! I cannot even think of a word vile enough to describe them. They must be cleansed!" The Emperor said, his voice rising steadily. It seemed impossibly loud for such a thin, ancient old man.
"Yes, My Lord." Mertens replied before turning on his heels and marching out of the Emperor’s chamber.
Then, he sent a simple curt message to the Galactic Empire. The Human Empire of Central Facehuggeria will support you against the Godulans so that we might cleanse the taint of Germanische Zustande from the universe.
OOC: I'm so glad I evoke such happy emotions in so many nations. I must be truly loved. By the way, Sith, would you like me to create a new thread, one for ONLY IC?

The Imperium and it's escourt soon dropped out of Hyperspace near the Godular System. The Giant Star Destroyer was now ready for Battle, Shields up at max. Darth Bankai Looked at the Planet. "Start the Attack." he ordered. "send The Fighters out, once we are near the Planet, Start Landing."
The Fighters were pooring out of the Hanger Decks like Mad bees, Armed with Anti-starship Torpedoes, The Fighters were Made to kill Capital Ships.
The Invasion of Godular had started.

Can people put Galactic Empire War, or something containing Galactic Empire, in their title? It'd save me a lot of time and trouble to watch other RPs.
