how in the hell are you RP as 2 races?

OOC: Technically it's 3. Protoss and Terrans are allies, underthe Terran Dominion, and the Zeji Armada is controlled by the Templar Kabala.

The Tigerlanian Oblitherater Star(the only one in existanance) unclouks in the between the fleet and the 3 planets emmiting an EMP feild dissabling anything not emmiting a Tigerlanian ID signell. The Oblitherator has a sheild powerd by Lavarium and Tiberium fusion(try and brake through that without a sample of Lavarium to decode its shield signature) The only Known Lavarium is on thies three planets due to an odd effect on the elements on thies planets coused by the three orbits being so close together along with the abunduncy of Lava in a Zub-zero tempritures( a unieqe planet indeed, that is why tigerlan wants to resurche it).


We are the Zeji. What are you?

A simple psychic call was all that presaged the appearance of the Zeji Armada, under the Flag of the Templar Kabala, and under the command of the mighty, heavily armed, but relatively frail, Black Dream. There were some 400 ships of varying power levels in the Armada, and hundreds of fighters, Mantas, Devilrays, and other deadly models. None of it could be definitively linked with the Terrans or the Protoss, though the Black Dream was remnisicent of BOTH building styles.

Another psychic call went out, ewven those who could not normally hear the speech of psioins would hear this one.

You are opposing the will of those that discovered this place. Begone from here, or suffer the wrath of the Armada.

ooc 1 of 2 things will happen if i commit to an attack on you. I will destroy you utterly with overwhelming forces before you can call in allies. Your cardboard armada stands no chance against mine. My military might is stronger then your entire alliance..i have been looking you up. You can not bring in allies and accept the fight. If you do bring in Allies. I will bring in mine. And they are stronger then me. And they are numerous. Now i shall explain in detail to you why i am doing this.

1 this is not your thread, this is a peaceful thread for meeting other people.
2 in system Tigerlan and Balrogga will back me.
3 When i call in the expeditionary force i will have enough rp/ratings might to conquer the ENTIRE system from everyone here.
4 My actual fleet composition is different then yours. Not only is my rating and size better, but my ships are far superior. As evinced by my smaller fleet size, my rp and my ratings.
5 your not in the right here, i am. I was asked by the people that claimed these systems to police it. You wont stop fighting.
6 i have yet to see a reason to fear your fleet in rp it remains static and simply fires. I also believe you have a massive ground army. Meaning your fleet recieves 0 funding compared to mine. And my technology is better. Period.
7 I dont want to fight i asked nicely for you to stop. But you remain ignorant of who we are, who the people i am allied with are and what people i RP with. I have conquered and beaten much larger nations in defensive wars. That takes work.But to remain pure to the RP i have to stop you.
8 The forces you have in system are not up to par with the 60 or so ships in system of mine. 100 ships is what i use to conduct majour wars. I dont number wank. Therefore one of my cruisers is the equal to 3-4 of yours no lets remember what tannelorn is...10 or so.
9 I will send in the expeditionary force. They will completely smash the 7th fleet and in fact any other fleets you send in.
10 I am a fleet wank. My people live in space. We use a giant robot that can switch to a high speed interceptor mode as our main combat vehicle. For space and air. Its the most heavily RP'd combat vehicle in NS i looked it up.
Not only that i have heavily rp'd the fleet itself. Its very advanced and very good. I have beaten multiple nations more powerful then me at once. we have no real ground army, because we live in space all of our massive military budget goes in to the fleet, and the special forces..or 50 000 man ground army.
11 your being more rude then i am. I am only fulfilling my obligation for being able to claim a solar system as mine which you havent yet. And if you have then your a squatter. If i dont evict you, then i am not living up to my contract.
12 dont make me bust out a rp hook i have been working on for 4 months early..i will lol.
13 have fun dont think i am ruining it, add me in free form rp is about dealing with changing events, its why i am here instead of writing stories or in a closed session. I have no hard feelings dont take it so seriously.

and no one seemsto be using the ooc thread. I will post non ooc in a sec.

"The Alterans still live because we have yet to kill them. Their arrogance made it inevitable that we would move against them some day." He paused, "They'll know respect. They are old, but Protoss were created by those even older than they, and that makes them older. The creations of the Xel'Naga will break the backs of the Alterans with ease. Now, targets... The Tannelornians, they have a large presence in this region, though the Balroggans may contest any action you take here. Perhaps those from the Great Forge, or perhaps, almost certainly, the Seaquestians. In fact, the Seaquestians seem like a very good target, we even have detailed data on all of their populated systems..."

OOC: That is blatent godmodding and I refuse to accept any such claims. You have made no attempt at RP'ing any attempt to gain such information, so you can edit this post to correct this. I would have been willing to possibly accept such a blatent statment if you hade made any attempt at it. I was planning on joining this RP IC'ly and was reading the whole to get caught up, no I'm not so sure. I say again, remove that godmod of a statement.

ooc last ooc that should be seen on this thread. For now mini i wont bother you. Thats for a good reason. This system is considered high priority to us. And we ill bring the fleet resources to defend it. Looks like the Expeditionary force found a home. Fight till they come then stop. You have alot more to gain allying with me and making a friend then in not. Speaking of which. Sorry if i sounded rude mini but seriously after your dissertation on the Atlanteans there about power. you have been acting rude yourself.


And about the rp its just normally in my group a battle thread is at least 8 paragraphs. Only the beginning of the attack before reply is normally short. Now lets keep the ooc gone period,.


Trust me its not bad. I have no intention of conquering anyone, i didnt even want to fight remember this. Its supposed to be peaceful and diplomatic. There has been enough shooting. When the expeditionary fleet gets here, the shooting should stop. Btw expeditionary fleet is special..it was the basis of the fleet used to win our civil war. So dont worry, i wish to deal with diplomacy now so anyone interested in talking and making friends with new people accept the invitation to come to New Carpentaria :)


IC

Lord Antonov paced across the deck of the Divine Steed. The massive kilometer long battle ship floated gracefully in orbit of the largest of the moons of New Carpentaria. She was framed by the bluish white orb, easily seen for millions of kilometers. The three balroggan vessels had finally stopped within the confines of the Prefab space station/installation now orbitting the massive bluish black gas giant. "Situation report" he stated flatly. A cheery com officer responded. "Sir the praetor himself has authorised Dominion to bring the expeditionary forces in..and to start construction on a new fleet base." Lord Antonov was shocked. He thought this would remain his command.

It was foolish arrogance to assume that much, he thought to himself. After all planets with room for a billion Tannelornians did not come around often..and to have made such a find was remarkable to say the least. Still in return for it they were obligated to police the system..and already there were so many hostile powers fighting out of spite or hatred. It had to stop if New Carpentaria was going to become a new home for Tannelorn. The first expeditionary fleet..300 fighting ships 85 sword cruisers 40 shield carriers, 20 of the new battle ships, 10 Zweihander fighting ships and 10 morgenstern carriers. The fleet also contained 100 of the new beowulf attack frigates, and 50 of the new woglinde class fleet support destroyers, armed with the massively powerful Ingelstung spinal mounted cascade cannon. They were also due to arrive at any moment.


However right now the Lord had much more important, and joyous things to attend to. It seemed that a diplomatic attache from the Balroggan people had just arrived. And today he was to greet them. He left the bridge in good care and proceeded to his room. He took out his finest dress uniform. Long red coat and white billowin trousers. Long black boots up to the knee. He looked rather impressive, his large captains hat almost touching the high collar on his jacket. He proceeded to the flight deck of the battle ship and boarded his specially prepared Horizont shuttle. As the ship left the flight deck, he watched out the porthole for any sign of the fleet, and Space Lord Helben Startamer. After all once Helben arrived, it was very likely the Canny elf would
relieve him and his men to return home to Tannelorn. Helben was loved by the men under his command, mainly for the belief that free time was sacred and a right of all those who fought for the flag.

It wasnt long before his eyes were greeted by a flash of light, signifying the
arrival of Dominion. Dominion one of 4 SDF class vessels. Super dimensional fortresses. The first class of vessels to carry an FTL drive, they were enormous at 3 miles in length, armed with enough weaponry to destroy a small planet, and carry enough supplies, equipment and personnel to start a city.
Essentially they were mobile fleet bases. Capable of performing repairs, logistics and support for the fleets of Tannelorn, while away from home. Also for those segmentums lucky enough to have one, they served as massive flagships. After all not many ships..or even flotillas could expect to tangle with one and come out on top. However their purpose was not as a front line fighting ship..and though capable of supporting the fleet..they normally stayed back, safely supporting the fleet with massed batteries of loengren and ingelstung..and resupplying ships who had exhausted their ammunition stores. Just the sheer sight of one of the ships was breath taking. Its massive angled form, with two huge booms making up the front section of the ship, dwarfed everything close by as it hung in the stillness of space.

"Well at least i get to start the negotiations" the lord laughed looking out at the awesome, and historic sight. This was the first time the TEF had ever left the solar system in force..and only the 6th time an SDF class vessel had used its Space time compressor for a jump further then 500 light years. Time dilation had affected it of course..though, much to the joy of the scientists that had been brought along..not as much as was expected. only 12 minutes had passed during transit. There was always more to learn.

ooc post script: Bravo Seaquest. We have opened an invitation for anyone to set up shop with a embassy come on down if you like. Thats why i joined this thread not ot fight..though admittedly i did trade for this planet with military might lol. All Tannelorn has to trade we dont use money.

OOC: Pure OOC posts must go to OOC thread. Got it.

IC: Messages

Transmitted to Waterhelper:

The SeaQuestian Empire would be honored if you allowed us 'control' of one of the sections you have set up in this cluster of worlds. Our only demands that it is as far away from both the Mini Miehm and Gate Builder claims as possible. Let us know if you accept our terms and we will have Ferengi Consortium send a ship with a Gate from one of our latest Stargate batches that we can send our people through.

Another short transmission was sent out, this time in response to the Sea quest transmission. Tannelornian comms ratings had been keeping very busy.

"Greetings, perhaps If their is room near our territory, you would like to place a colony in that area, not only are we open to encountering new and respectful cultures, but if you have a distaste for those who wish a fight, we guarantee that their shall be no fighting within 1 light day of our Territory. We look forward to dealing with you in the future."

Response Message

We have had dealings with both of the aforementioned nations and would prefer if we were able to live in peace with our neighbors. We will have the D'Kora (OOC: F.C.'s capital ship class) ship with the last Stargate we have built lately aboard. Her E.T.A. is in five days. We shall await Waterhelper's approval before having the Gate set-up on a planet.

OOC: Source is too far away for real time.

ooc assumed to be RT, its ok to ooc keep short though like this. And i urge anyone who does want to set up an embassy to PM me :). Just to let everyone know we are like Ancient china..we expect respect in diplomacy. And we give it back in return..and alot more.

As soon as the transmission had been recieved The Tannelornians sent another response back. When it arrived was up tothe quality of SQ comms systems. "understood, all nations in this cluster have been officially invited to participate in building embassies on our soil. We wish nothing but peaceful relations with our neighbours, and wish to ensure it through all means possible, preferably diplomacy..we Welcome you." With the transmission was sent approach vectors to New Carpentaria, for those parties interested in negotiations.

OOC: Uh, original source is not even in the same galaxy (at least I assume this RP is in the Milky Way Galaxy). Its being relayed through a natural, stable wormhole I have connecting my home galaxy to the core of the Milky Way. I highly doubt anyone could have a RT convo at that distance.

IC: Response Message

Do you have access to a Chaapa'ai? In the Universal Standard Language, the common term is Stargate. In our language, they are called Astria Porta.

ooc well we have a funky form of FTL comms. We shoot a message through a rift in space lol. otherwise its non RT standard ls comms. I understood completely you were using Stargate comms. We would simply shoot the response back to source. didnt feel like wanking is all lol.

OOC: Quantum Entanglement comms. Understood. Just don't have a clue as to how they work (only know they are very powerful and need both a transmitting unit and a recieving unit to work).

Now to put some IC stuff in to avoid a pure OOC post.

IC: Mid-Journy - F.C.S. Morn - Bridge

"How is the cargo doing?"

"The SeaQuestian Gate is locked down and off-line. D.H.D. has been disconnected and stored seperately. Their is no way that thing is going to activate until we get it installed on the planet."

"Good. And the Iris System?"

"The equipment was just checked. Everything meets the specs provided my SeaQuest."

"Good. Let me know when we arrive at our destination."

"Yes, Daimon."

ooc agreed, well assume its keyed in to frequency of your comms, we can read that sort of thing i assume and imagine the whole convo to take oh maybe the better part of a day well off to bed. This is the reason for an ooc post to end it..and some more IC right now.

IC
As the day progressed and the Expeditionary fleet fanned out around New Carpentaria, several things could be noticed. It was now undeniable that Tannelorn had a massive military presence in this system. Far greater then that of anyone else. However it was in the interests of peace..at least on paper.

Something else had appeared to be of interest however..Dominion had not just brought along the fleet..but several large asteroids..city rocks of Tannelorn..the first wave of colonists and several large factories as well as a true star base were all orbitting Carpentaria city..the name given to the largest most fertile of the worlds Tannelorn had claimed...

Back at the Waterhelper conference on the icy planet now known as New Siberia.

After the Waterhelpers demostrated their nano tech device.

Admiral Kra'Dem looked in amazement as he was surprised there wasnt a blast crater in the hole. "We have been trying to apply the energy given off from Element X as a power source for our shield generators. The problem is that we are having a difficult time extracting the element from the vein being extremely cautious. Maybe your nano tech can help us extract it more quickly?"

to seaquest:
Verywell
Tannelorn's system
three nanoprobe ships came out of hyperspace, just after the order came to stand down... even though Tannelorn welnt out of established territories, (I think) but it was to late the EMP lashed out and so did their fleet. The EMP passed over the ships with no effect and the lasers were absorbed. They went back into hyperspace undammaged.
(OOC: no its not a god mod Sarbon nanotubes absorb the excited particles of a laser and retern them to the original state. Also the EMP wont effect it because it used a layer of deactivated nanoprobes to make a faraday cage. Also the nanotubes were used as small fiberoptic lasers to knock out the missiles as one large point defence system.)
Communistic Govts recearch center:
"The way we extract metals most efficantly with less damage to the enviroment is to use the nanoprobes to eat the metal to make more they then return to the surface and deactivate. They also act as supports where there are't enough leftover material to make them."

F.C.S. Morn - Exterior

The orange hull of the Ferengi Consoritum D'Kora class ship dropped out of sublight in a flash of light. She banked and turned into the central planet of the section the SeaQuest Empire had been assigned.

F.C.S. Morn - Bridge

"Daimon, we have arrived. We are now in orbit of the planet."

"Good. Is everything ready?"

"Yes, the SeaQuestian Gate, D.H.D., and the other equipment they sent is ready. The personnel they sent are also ready to be transported to the surface so they can set up Base Camp."

'Once all the SeaQuestian people and equipment are on the surface, take us out of orbit so we can make more money."

"Yes, my Daimon."

Planet's Surface - 2 hours later

Columns of swirling light appeared as the Morn beamed down the SeaQuestian personnel and equipment.

Orbit

Having done the job she was assigned, the Morn came about and dissapeared into Warp.

OOC: F.C. said I could RP with his ship up until it leaves. Now, its my turn to RP with my stuff.
Yes, F.C. is a cannon Ferengi style Star Trek tech nation.

Admiral Kra'Dem,"I guess we should name this element. In honor to the planet's name, New Siberia, we shall now call it Siberium. If you agree to letting us use your technology we will give you any important information concerning Siberium and a trade agreement of the element."

ooc ??? waterhelper lol i was moving on mini to stop them fighting as was your rule. Remember i stated that i would stop any fighting in the area.Thats what i am doing. And the lasers i use probably wouldnt get fizzled by nano machines. They arent simple light lasers. Tannelorn has an incredibly high level of RP'd nano tech as well lol. Missiles for sure..Tannelornian missiles arent exactly the greatest. Easily stopped by EMP. But remember I am supposed to go stop fighting for you. Cant do that if you try to stop me lol. Unless i am very confused on what just happened lol.

OOC: I ment Tigerlan i think
IC:
"Siberium... sounds like a cliche. Ah well we will accept just give us a ammount of iron or carbon. (as in charcoal or graphite... well its common enough. I need to arange them into nanotubes) We will then give you a batch of nanoprobes... we must warn you that if they are ordered to do anything but mine they will explode on you... if what you say is true i believe this planet may blow up." he then transmitted the new orders to the nanoporbes that he already has and got ready to do their list of tasks.
(also im revising my fleet i dont like the way it is now i willh ave a entirely new fleet (along with my 100 years in one advancemnt rated due to nanoprobes

ooc its cool i cleared some things up in ooc about the nanites to avoid anyone screaming god mode. Unfortunately their effect in space will be limited its col waterhelper, i work i get tired i screw up too lol. Anyways any ideas on starting seperate threads for this? This planet is going to be a majour part of my empire soon, and i want it to be full of diplomacy and intrigue. So we should think up a title to place as planets..or even consider presenting a seperate NS forum to this thread to make it really detailed like the one i am on in mars :)

OOC: Take it to the OOC thread.

IC: Botany

The SeaQuestians had quickly set-up the Stargate they had brought with them and attached all the extras (ie, D.H.D., Iris system (energy and physical), power source, et cetera) to it. They then proceeded to build structures out of the few materials they brought with them, but primarily used the local and native materials to build with.

As the Gate set-up only took a few hours, they were able to dial an address in SeaQuestian space to and sent a signal with the planet's address and that they were ready for the thousand that were going to be taking up residence on the planet. It would take around a month to get all the people and their belongings through the Gate.

OOC: Like the name I came up with for the central planet I got in the cluster?

“Sir, we received a message from some nation called Tigerlan. They decided they can claim the entire Cluster for themselves.”

Admiral Dar’Gedin sat for a few seconds after hearing the message. He suddenly burst into laughter, almost falling off his seat. With tears in his eyes he stifled his laughter.

“Are they serious? They are not even big enough to defend a third of it. Get a fix on the location of their transmission and circulate the coordinates to the rest of the fleet. These fools can beat on each other, we have bigger fish to fry. Uplift all Avatars and grapple them. We will use them when we get to the Tigerlan homeworld.”

“Yes Sir.”

Moments later the entire fleet of ships Uplifted to T-Space, fading from existence. The ships quickly left.



Later:

“Sir, we have arrived at their coordinates. It appears they are making a stand at a trio of planetoids. They are apparently establishing some sort of mining on the surfaces.”

“Position the fleet in the middle of the planets. Keep them Uplifted in T-Space. Send some Infiltrators to the planets to discover what they are up to.”

“Yes Sir, ships sent.”

“Good, we will find out what they are up to. In order to keep them guessing, prepare to detach Avatars and send them to Real Space. They wanted a fight so we will get them. Make sure all Space Minus Taps are fully activated and weapons are fully charged before Emergence.”


Normal Space:

Over a hundred ships suddenly Emerged in the middle of the three planets. They were all very small (ranging from 20 – 300 meters) but they each registered the mass of a small sun and the power levels were off the scale.

A simple message was transmitted:

This is the First Imperial Task Force from The Balrogga Empire. You are in violation of the rules set up by the original founder and discoverer of this Star Cluster. You will leave or you will be destroyed. This will be your only warning. We have weapons locks on your vessels. As soon as you do anything other than leaving, you will be fired upon. We are not playing your games so get the hell out of our area.

Neo Roma - Botany

In between arrivals through the Gate, a wormhole was established with the Gate Waterhelper had in the cluster. The address had been devised by engineers and scientists using very complex mathmatics. A simple message was sent through.

It read: "In the name of the SeaQuestian Empire, we thank you for allowing us to set-up an outpost colony in this cluster."

Grand Admiral Lenov stood pacing the Command Bridge, he was alone now, his Wife captured along with the crew of The Inqisitor, his doughter killed by the Terrans, he was alone.

"a messege from the plannet sir"

"patch it through"

"We are under attack! the artifact that we found activated somehow, hundreds of enemy soldiers are pouring out! (a voice is heard in the backround: Were being overun!; along with an explosion) Sir we need reinforcments! (another voice: Im Hit!) I dont know how mutch longer we can hold! (a soldier with a golden inprint on his head holding some kind of staff weapon apeared behind the speaking soldier) Sir, we cant hold them I ne(The soldier goes down after taking a blow to the head from the Staff weapon)" Transmission Ends

5 refugee class DD, 20 archer class PT, 50 arlington class FF, 100 hernand class PT dropped into the system and began heading for the battle

Lenov looks away from the screen, he looks to his captian, she stares at her feet not knowing what this enemy could be he looks to the rest of the bridge, they all have the same puzzled look as he does, exept one, one young engineer.

"What do you know son? speak your mind" says Lenov

"they are the goauld, sir, We briefly coverd them in Basic, but I thought they were just a myth"

"Apparently not" says the admiral


~a transmission is sent to all fleets in the area~ We are under attack by a force known as the Goauld, We are asking for any information on this enemy.

OOC: to prove you wrong about EMP this is what my nanobots use against it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage
also about replicators from stargate. I see no reason why i cant make my nanobots into replicators or human form replciators that would eliminate transportation problems.
IC: "Incomming message." the captain heard the message and decided that they were the greater threat.
Message to Tigerlan:
"dispite your encrochment into our territory we will help you for now..." since there were no actuall soldiers nanobots inthe form of human form replicators trasported down to the surface and siglehandedly fought the jaffa with stunning efficancy
(OOC: think data exept in the fom of a combat droid... perfetly accurate, powerful and with the nanobots self repairing.)

5 refugee class DD, 20 archer class PT, 50 arlington class FF, 100 hernand class PT dropped into the system and began heading for the battle

OOC:It is a land battle, we have space well handled, we didnt bring along enouph troops to hold a full scale invasion of the planets, especialy a 3 pronged attack(shorlty after the 1st attack similer reports came from the other 2 planets)


IC:

~A transmision is sent to the Waterhelper Flag ship~ "I would like to offer my apology, It was rude of me to Just claim T-385 without your permission, I have been under allot of stress lately, May we collinize T-385?

OOC: I KNEW keepingthe Zeji effectively unconnected to the Terrans was a good idea..

IC:

To all Psions in the area:

The Goa'uld are a great threat. They must be destroyed. We will commit one Tiamat Dreadnought to that aim.

The Tiamat left the area where the Armada had first appeared, heading for the system. It would help. Help protect EVERYONE else... By destroying the planet.

OOC: ever see replicators against jaffa now thats whats happening.
IC:
The captain contacted the centeral government who told him to thell them their reply:
Verywell but you are confined to this sector unless trading or leaving via hyperspace

IC: the 4 eclips class SSD open fire with their superlaser along with the 4 superllaser batteries (thats about 4 superlaser hits, 4 to overwelm the sheilds), effectivle destroying the Zenji vessel before it can harm the planets

OOC: no not that the instant destruction fo your ship

GOOD NIGHT ALL IM GONE FOR 8-18 hr

~an comm channel is opend between the Waterhelper and the Tigerlanian Commanders~ Lenov aprears on the Screen of The Waterhelper command deck

"Hello I am Grand Admiral Valdimier Lenov of the Tigerlanian Navy, Do you have any ground commanders? we need to co-ordinate our attacks to fight effectivle and prevent crossfire."

The Waterhelper commander has never seen anything like it, could this really be a foxman?

ooc:
Err... the fact that you would have such a station is a godmode, ESPECIALLY in conjunction with what? 4 Eclipses and 20 Executors? I don't know if you realize this, but you've already blown 15 million ACTIVE troops just CREWING those ships, not to mention the atrocious numbers of onboard ships and et cetera. The first DS had an inane number of troops onboard. As in there are sources indicating that it could handle 6 Star Destroyers in internal hangars...

This is already a HUGE number. Even if we're nice with a Death Star like battlestation's crew, and call it 1 million, that's still 16 million. That is an inane ammount of firepower and crew in one location, especially considering your economic position.

It took the entire Galactic Empire to make a DS. That means trillions of beings and literally quadrillions of quadrillions of credits. If we were to throw in appropriate logistics (1:3 ratio I think, but I could be wrong there), that's 64 million troops in crewing and supplying that fleet, minus any onboard ships/troops, 3.5% of your nation's NS population.

It is an unmanned station consisting of 8 World devistators combined ( I bought the world devistators from Hantar or something like that) they are meshed together forming the station

"Sir, we have gotten reports of Goa'uld infiltration on a planet in the star cluster."

"How unlike the Goa'uld. They wouldn't send Jaffa through a Stargate unless they had Ha'taks attacking from above as well. Can we get a connection to a Gate on a near-by planet?"

"Yes, sir."

"Then dial it and send the Furlings through with a ground-to-space comm unit. Their armor will be able to handle the plasma of the Staff Weapons and the comm unit will allow them to get in touch with anyone above them for transport."

"Understood, sir. Shame the Morn didn't leave us a shuttle."

"Hold it. Dial Altera first and have them send a Jumper through."

"Good plan, sir. I'll have the Jumper sent and have it fully loaded with Furling marines."

"Great, lad. Get to it then."

The young Alteran jogged away to carry out his orders.

30 minutes later...

A SeaQuestian Puddle Jumper came swooping out of the Botany Stargate.

"Sir, Atlantis has sent one of the few Jumpers we have through."

"Understood. Make sure you get a good pilot. We can't afford to loose one of these things. Not until they find a way to make more than the stockpile found in Atlantis."

"Understood, sir. As the best pilot here, I'll fly her myself."

1 hour later...

The SeaQuestian Jumper came soaring up from Botany's atmosphere. As soon as it was clear, she Phased into Hyperspace. Her E.T.A. at the Goa'uld attack site was thirty minutes.

OOC: Note, my Puddle Jumpers don't currently use pure cannon Ancient tech, but only as far as I have researched and developed on my tech tree (going to take some time to get up to the Ancient tech level on most things).

OOC: That does it. Time for a pure OOC post from me in the IC thread (TOLD YOU TO TAKE IT TO THE OOC THREAD (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=468170) MULTIPLE TIMES!)

@Tigerlan:
1.) He listed it IC'ly, but your use of that data counts as using OOC info (as he didn't send it in a message to you) IC'ly. That's godmodding.
2.) The Axial Superlaser on Eclipse class Super Star Destroyers is not a full scale Death Star blast. It can only crack a planet's crust at full power. However, this means it takes a day to recharge before it can fire a second full power shot.
3.) You can have one large World Devestator forming the station, can't 'mesh' more than one together.
4.) World Devestators are not equipped with Superlasers.

@All:
5.) It is very rare to have a ship with defense powerful enough to survive the first full power Superlaser blast. Its usually strong enough to blast straight through shields and destroy a ship in one shot.
6.) TAKE IT TO THE OOC THREAD (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=468170)!

At the conference on New Siberia.

Admiral Kra'Dem,"Done. The Carbon and Iron is en route to your ship. If you would like you can leave a research scientist here as a kind of ambassador for your world and can help us with the applications of Siberium and with other discoveries we uncover here."

The IUCGS Star Destroyer Iron Curtain with its two Victory Star Destroy escorts finally reached the planet temporarily known as IP-2 (OOC: Imperial Planet 2). A serene world with a heavily forested landscape. Two oceans divide 5 continents and a archipelago, engulfed by water, to the southern quadrant of the planet.

The young Captain Sokylov, 28 years old and in the top 10 percent of his class at the Imperial Union Naval Academy, came here with the first expedition fleet. Although his education in tactical, strategic, and logistics is superb, his experience in the field was rather inadequate. This would be his first experience as a Captain in the field but not his very first experience in the field where he served as a Lieutenant under Captain Terenov during an attack on pirates terrorizing the space lines between the IUCG colonies of Niznhiy and Kalashnakovia.

A Lieutenant in the pit looked up and told the Captain that they are in position of IP-2.

Sokylov nodded as he adjusted his tunic. He walked slowly to the viewport watching the planet coming into view after they dropped out of hyperspace.

Captain Sokylov,"Release the Carrack cruiser berthed in our docking bay."

"Yes sir. Docking ring is releasing the cruiser. Its descending out of the bay and.......its clear."

Captain Sokylov,"Good. Open a comm link to Major Torov."

A crewman in the left hand pit flipped a switch on his console."Comm link open sir."

Captain Sokylov began issuing his command,"Major, scout out the planet and report back to me once you have completed your scans of the terrain or if you find anything of importance."

Major Torov,"Yes. We are underway with the operation."

Captain Sokylov,"Major do not make me remind you next time that you are addressing a Captain of the Imperial Navy. Address me as sir."

"Yes 'sir'" Torov replied in a sarcastic manner. Torov had no respect for the young Captain as he was 18 years older than him. A man of more experience than his superior, but is stuck at his current rank because of his "conduct" with other superior officers. It was a miracle that he became a major. Despite this drawback he had earned the respect of his men and their trust.

The Carrack Cruiser entered the atmosphere and started on its mission to scan the planet.

Grand Admiral Lenov begins to settle into bed, when the alarm goes off,the Intercome states: "an unotherised ship has enterd Tigerlanian space, Red Alert Alpha

We will. If we do not you will be overrun by the Jaffa. Get your troops well away from the gate, and we will eliminate the oncoming horde.

The massive World Destroyer cannon on the Tiamat was already mostly ready to fire. In just a few seconds it would be prepared to let loose, and eliminate the Goa'uld Threat.

It was at this time that the SeaQuestian Puddle Jumper Phased back into Real Space one-hundred kilometers away.

You May Have as manny of them as you want, we offer them as a token of goodwill

The FOXHOUND team was too late, the Tiamat unleashed a single beam of destructive energy at the gate, not powerful enough to dfestroy the planet, but enough to deal with the Gate.

Above the planet a massive energy buildup of some description could be measured, assuming you had instruments that measured that high... The Tiamat was like a massive insect above the planet, preparing to rain death on the world.

The beam formed relatively slowly, starting as a small thread, and continuing to expand until it engulfed almost the entire area around the pedastel. The Gate, just about every livinbg being, and all plantr life in the area was vaporised in moments. As the beam receded, the devastation was apparent, earth scorched to bedrock, no evidence of slain bodies, and a pedastel of molten metal where once there had been a Stargate. Almost every creature within 50 miles would have been flash-cooked by the transmitted heat, and hundreds of miles would have been devastated by the shockwave that followed the cessation of the beam. The invassion was effectively halted, but the price would be horrendous.

TIE Recon pilot,"Finished with the scans Major returning for reattachment."

"Sir thats 3 TIEs that have been accounted for but we still have not received a transmission from our last TIE." the Lieutenant reported.

Hmmm something must have gone wrong. thought Torov."Scan the area for the pilot, see if his TIE had a malfunction and crashed. Play the last transmission."

The Lieutenant flipped a switch and pushed a button on his console."Playback of recording has now started sir."

**recording**

Pilot,"Nothing out of the ordinary so far...Helloo what do we have here. Looks like I found something..." Then the sound of a couple of blast bursts and then the transmission ended.

Major Torov,"It seems we are not alone on this rock. Is the pilot alive? I will not leave a man behind."

The Lieutenant replied,"Our scanners are not picking up the TIE Sir it has gone out of range of our scanners."

Major Torov,"Dammit. Alright lets start searching. Which direction did he go"

Lieutenant,"The TIE had gone North Northwest. His transponder signal went out around here." The Lieutenant points to a map of intial scans in space.

1 Hour later....

Major Torov,"Any sign of the pilot."

Lieutenant,"No sir....wait 2 objects coming in at bearing 5.68!"

Major Torov,"Get the sensor up I want a designation of that fighter."

After a few seconds the Lieutenant finally responds."One of them is the TIE we are looking for but I have no clue what the hell the other one is. It seems the bursts in the recording came from that fighter and damaged the pilot's transponder and transmitter."

The ship looked like a flying wing of sorts with two laser cannons merged into the edges of the wings. It was boomrang in shape and sleek and smooth like marble. Evilly black though and made a threatening *thwap* sound each time it fired.

Major Torov,"Its a damn good thing those recon fighters are shielded. How far away from them are we."

Lieutenant,"We are within firing range sir."

Major Torov,"Release the attack fighter and target that fighter. I don't want that thing to reveal our position."

As the TIE fighter was released, the laser cannons boomed from the Carrack. The TIE recon pilot couldn't shake him and was barely hit by a couple of shots. The recon pilot tried to lead its pursuer towards the carrier and with his luck the fighter did not go for that trick but instead ran for the hills. The TIE fighter ultimately caught up with the unknwon fighter and shot it down. The Carrack flew over the crash site.

Major Torov,"Is anyone alive?"

The Lieutenant checked the scanners."The pilot is almost dead."

Major Torov,"Land the ship and retreive the body and whatever remains of that fighter. Place it in storage and then we continue with the mission."

The Carrack landed by the crash site and crews started to get the fighter remains on board. A medical team picked up the barely killed pilot and secured him in a cryotube. Then the Carrack then lifted off and continued with its mission.

after seeing the destruction of the gate...
(OOC: actually i think that's near impossible with a solid naquadah object because it stood up to a 500 gigaton nuke, however some sources state that its at least three but whatever)
...the nanobots that were nearest to the shock wave were dispersed over a radius of 1km and slowly regenerated but the ones further away continued to fight the jaffa with their superior strength.
Message to TDoMM ship (I think its yours but whatever):
We asked you to stand down!!! please explain your actions the situation was contained as they had little or no chance of destroying out nanobots.

Now they have NO chance of destroying your nanobots. The incursion has been contained, and we are finished here.

The Zeji were satisfied that the Jaffa would be dealt with, now that the gate was not sending them reinforcements. The Tiamat Warped out of the system, leaving them to their own devices.

Communistic Govts system:
*5 refugee class DD, 20 archer class PT, 50 arlington class FF, 100 hernand class PT (standard fleet as it can take care of most threats) dropped into the system and proceeded to the planet to protect their intrests there.

The Fifth Stowes Bi-Fleet

OOC:what are you talking about?!

IC: The FOXHOUND team is doing well, they are expected to make a full recovery within 2 days (bacta tanks and genentic engineering)

The Fifth Stowes Bi-Fleet severed the Warp Drive. A large cluster of M-Class planets had just been discovered and tensions were gorwing with the claimers. Bi-Admiral Tur'ah Ku had contacted the Panrabia with his intentions. If this sparked into a war, Pananab would finally have its Homeworld.

They only wanted one planet. Pananab has colonies in severeal planets, none of them, however, are permenant. Tur'ah intends for this colony to be the only permenant Pananab colony, however small. Stowes has ordered that any permenant colony would not be allowed to grow over 50,000 people unless it was what they were looking for. The Pananab Fleet was searching for a homeworld and begin an empire, but no one generic planet would do. Stowes was looking for a planet that the Fleet would fight and die for; a true homeworld. Which is why he ordered his Bi-Admirals to pick as many fights as possible.

The Bi-Fleet, containing mostly Military ships, scanned the dense area of M-Class planets and found one in particular that appealed to Tur'ah. It was large, open to the outside, and was rich in arable land and minerals. It least it would be a food colony.

The Bi-Fleet began to trnsmit warning beacons that would go for 10 light years before disappation (Small for a Pananab beacon). The Fleet, in the meantime, set up for the colonists to make their home.

""How will we get them back without a Stargate?"

"We'll have to have one of our one brought over."

"True..."

"In the meantime, we'll have to leave most of the Furling Marines on site while we use the back of the Jumper to bring as many Jaffa back as we can."

"Yes, we need to find out which Goa'uld they serve and get those symbiotes for the research division."

"Yes. Ever since those damned Goa'uld switched over to the Macronesian Alliance, they've been nothing but trouble."

"Agreed. We had the tech advantage over the stuff the Macs use, but the Goa'uld ships wouldn't be as easy to take out due to the differences between Goa'uld tech and Mac tech."

Messages

In response to the Tigerlan message:

Acknowledged. We will take as many Jaffa as you are willing to part with. We will be most likely have a spare SeaQuestian Stargate sent over to replace the one you lost.

Space:
a survey probe going to survey star S1253. (or Pananab's system) When it found that it had been taken it sent back a message requesting for a fleet so that this situation could be resolved.
Pananab's system: the usual fleet emerged from hyperspace and took up a postition just outside the fourth planet (I assume it is the one after yours in distance from the sun if it is not then change it to the correct one)

Oh brave new worlds that have such people in them...

This was the singular thought that crossed the mind of Lord Kai Mortucal, Lord Admiral of the Chronosian expeditionary fleet. They had come at word of new, fresh worlds; ripe worlds untouched by the glorious, sundering hand of Chaos. A chuckle crossed his lips. It was an honor to go forth in the name of the divine Emperor; Remiel De Drakan; it was a great pleasure to taste new worlds; dispute, rule, akin to being gods over mortal subjects; whose whining sighs could always be so easily snuffed out.

He gave the order; the vessels tearing out of the Warp; gleaming, spiked hulls shimmering in the void; dancing with residual warp energy. All about the ship, Guardsmen rushed to posts; Adeptus Mechanicus members checked, double-checked and triple-checked equipment; and Space Marines prepared eagerly for battle, if it arose.

The expedition was ready; to found new colonies for the Imperium; no matter who they encounter; no matter how the sharp iron fist of the Imperium extended, it would never be enough. They would always be left craving more...

And they would take it.

From nowhere, a wormhole bloomed into existence, spewing out Arcturus Ascedant, minus it's dangerous cargo.

The 800-metre Alteran battleship made no attempt to cover its entry , but stayed put, giving off massive amounts of energy from the full output of the arcturus generator.

This is Arcturus Ascendant of the Vis Uban expeditionary fleet. Make no hostile moves against this ship, and we will not fire a shot.

It began to scan the surrounding area, taking in information about the races and ships that flooded the cluster.

It has been a day since the attack on one of the TIE Recons by a unknown fighter. Major Torov and his crew continue with their mission, now with a new objective, to find the source of this unknown fighter. The crew had been searching for hours for a hidden base or downed capital ship. Then all of a sudden an alert came up on the energy scanner of a crewman.

Crewman,"Sir I think I found something."

Major Torov,"What is it?"

"Our energy scanners have picked up a huge energy source about 100 kilometers West from our current position. The power levels are off the scale!", the Crewman replied

"Land the ship 90 kilometers from the energy anomaly. The deploy the scouts.", Major Torov ordered.

The Carrack landed in a small clearing, the tall trees gave the ship its cover.
Scout troopers were deployed with their standard 74-Z Speeder Bikes. A total of 10 troopers were sent out to scout out the area. Their commander was Squad Leader Aran Colural, who was Major Torov's most dedicated scout.

Colural reached the site of the energy source. He saw nothing and checked his position on the datapad. He noticed that his squad was in position around the site and concluded they say nothing. Then something happened. There was a distortion in the middle of the field and then a structure appeared. Some kind of cloaking device? thought Colural.

After looking through his microbinoculars Colural saw a structure that was basically a ring with strange symbols that are arranged in a circular pattern. A sort of dial appeared before the structure which had a red node and symbols similar to the ring structure.

Colural picked up his comm link."Colural to base come in."

Major Torov,"This is base, whats your status."

Colural,"Sir I found something." Then he relayed the pictures from his microbinoculars to the cruiser.

Major Torov,"What in the hell is that?!?"

Colural,"Its covered by some sort of cloaking device sir. At first we were going to dismiss it as a glitch on our scanners but it just appeared right where the energy source is located."

Major Torov,"Very good return to..."

Colural interupted,"Sir something is happening."

Major Torov,"What now?"

Colural,"The ring just lighted up and the symbol ring is spinning."

Major Torov,"Keep your men in position and get as much information as you can any sign of danger and you get the hell out of there."

Colural,"Yes sir."

The ring finally stopped its spinning then a gush of water like substance bursted out about 10 to 15 feet out. Then was sucked back in and then a serene puddle like field filled in the inner portion of the ring.

Colural,"Scout 5 whats the status of the rear of the structure."

Scout 5,"The rear looks the same as the front."

Scout 4,"Sir I scanned the Ring. Its made of naquadah."

Naquadah? Hmmm... Colural,"Ok Scouts 4 through 6 return to base."

All three in unison,"Yes sir."

A few seconds after the scouts hummed away on their speeders back to base. A humanoid emerged from the portal like device. The humanoid was dressed in a strange armor and had some sort of chainmail as a cape. The humanoid had a staff looking device clasped to his hand and a snake like object on his side, a possible sidearm. The humanoid appeared to be caucasion and had a strange golden mark on his head.

Colural reached for his comm link.

Colural,"Colural to base. I think we may have some company here."

Major Torov,"How many of the humanoids are there?"

Colural,"So far one...no wait more are coming through."

Two columns of humanoid troops came through the portal.

Colural,"I count 30 troops plus the one. I think that one is their commander sir. They appear to be hostile."

Major Torov,"Colural thats all you need to know to get your ass out of there."

Before Colural could confirm that he saw a huge massive ship fly over head. It looked like a flying pyramid. The troops at the portal scattered and three rings appeared out of nowhere and appeared to lift right back up. Boxes appeared before the humanoids where the rings touched the ground. It seemed like supplies for building a base. Colural saw th flying pyramid go back into orbit. Then he saw some troops heading towards his and the rest of his squads position.

Five humanoids came through the forestation, one of them passing a tree with Colural hiding behind it on his back side. He looks to the other way once the humanoid passes and then nods towards Scout 3 who was hiding in the bushes. Scouts 2 and 4 were in the trees with their sniper rifles. Scouts 8-10 were also hiding behind trees like their commander. As the rear humanoid looked down at an intrusion Scout 8 came up from behind, muffled the mouth of his victim, and slit his throat with his vibroblade. The other 4 did not even notice. The four humanoids then came across the covered speeder bikes and were startled that such technology existed on such a backwater world. Then Colural signal and the ambush was set. Scouts 9 and 10 underestimated the strength of the humanoids and were beaten away as Corlural came up from behind and stabbed one of the humanoids in the back with his vibroblade. Scouts 2 and 4 picked off two of the humanoids. The fourth humanoid evaded the sniper attacks and shot at Scout 4 with his staff. A big thwap hit Scout 4 instantly killing him. Colural then came up from behind and hit him in the back with a hammer like blow with both of his hands. As the humanoid stumbled down to the ground Colural continuosly beated him with a series of kicks and punches and banging the humanoid's skull against a rock, killing him. Colural ordered his troops to get on their speeders as they were about to return to base. As Scout 8 was approching the already mounted Scouts he was shot in the back by one of the staff weapons the humanoids had. Colural and his remaining squad members instantly took off after Scout 8's demise. The humanoid that shot Scout 8 alerted the other troops.

Colural and his remaining two scouts were racing to get to home base. Racing against time as the imminent alert of their presence on the planet was growing close. Ten minutes later there fears had surfaced as two fighters appeared behing them, these were the same as the mysterious fighter that was shot down half a day ago was chasing them firing there plasma cannons at them. Then Scout 3's bike was hit in the rear engulfing him in a ball of flames.

Colural,"We need to get out of the clearing head into the forest."

Scout 2,"But sir..."

Colural,"Do it or your dead trooper!"

They went into the forest dodging tree trunks, branches, and limbs. The fighters were shooting blindly into the forest some of the shots were way off as some were near fatal misses. After a few more shots and a near miss Scout 2 looked behind to look at the shot that almost killed him

Scout 2,"I got lucky on that one didn't I sir......"

Then Scout 2 looked back to the front.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH........."

An explosion was made in the back as Scout 2 was killed when he crashed into a tree stump. Colural was alone now going through the forest then he noticed something that troubled him. The last 10 kilometers was all clearing and this was extremely dangerous as the pilots on the fighters would have a more accurate shot. Then Colural decided to punch it and went to maximum speed zigzagging across the clearing to avoid the shots. He was nearly grazed by one of the plasma hits. He was about two kilometers away from the cruiser and the 1 kilometer from the treeline. He again twisted the bike back and forth avoiding near misses then abruptly he was knocked off his speeder by a nearby blast. His speeder bike crashed into a tree and he was lying in a bush unconcious.

Major Torov sat back in his chair as the news of Colural's transponder signal was lost. He can't believe it, his best scout gone. Scouts 5, 6, and 7 made it back with the information and holos.

Major Torov,"Get us out of here before more of those things arrive."

Lieutenant,"What about Colural sir?"

Major Torov,"He would wanted us to go and finish the mission. He knew the risks and would want nothing more than to complete this mission. Now get us the hell out of here."

Colural woke up from consciousness and saw the Carrack leave the planet's orbit.

They must have thought I was dead when the transponder in my comm link was damaged. Well I hope my scouts got the information back. Now I need to hide from those humanoids., Colural thought.

The two fighters started to pursue the Carrack into space, firing at it continously.

Major Torov,"Fire all batteries at those fighters."

Lieutenant,"Sir we caught one of them by surprise it has been destroyed."

Major Torov,"How is our shields holding up?"

"Minimal damage to shields and hull. No life threatening damage." one of the Crewman answered.

All of a sudden a 5 TIE Fighters appeared and chased off the fighter. The lead fighter destroyed the fighter and commed the Carrack.

Lead TIE Pilot,"This is Delta Leader, come in Major Torov."

"Copy Delta Leader this is Torov. You guys came in the nick of time."

Delta Leader,"Good to hear from you sir. We will escort you to the Iron Curtain. Captain Sokylov is awaiting your return."

As the Carrack continued its course towards the Star Destroyer, he can't help to wonder what were those humanoids, what was that ring, and most of all about the condition of his dear friend Colural. He thought Colural isn't dead and that he is still down there.

The crew of the Ascendant were buzzing. The system was flooded with races and ships, and almost worryingly: Stargate activations.

"We've detected another activation. This wormhole leads from... Goa'Ud. It's a Goa'Uld advanced party."

"Can we do anything?"

"Our marines are ready, but residiual energy from a recent detonation in the area of a stargate suggests that might be a bad idea. Somebody melted a gate."

"That's literally physically impossible."

"Yes..."

From nowhere, a wormhole bloomed into existence, spewing out Arcturus Ascedant, minus it's dangerous cargo.

The 800-metre Alteran battleship made no attempt to cover its entry , but stayed put, giving off massive amounts of energy from the full output of the arcturus generator.

This is Arcturus Ascendant of the Vis Uban expeditionary fleet. Make no hostile moves against this ship, and we will not fire a shot.

It began to scan the surrounding area, taking in information about the races and ships that flooded the cluster.
The Bi-Fleet warmed its weapons and the Admiral's Flagship sent a warning message to the Gate-Builder ship. It read:
The Nomadic Pananab Starship Fleet has claimed this system for farming, mining, and population expansion purposes. No nation may claim it, as it is ours.

OOC: Pananab are you there my ships enterd your system (or i think its yours)
((Huh?))

From nowhere, a wormhole bloomed into existence, spewing out Arcturus Ascedant, minus it's dangerous cargo.

The 800-metre Alteran battleship made no attempt to cover its entry , but stayed put, giving off massive amounts of energy from the full output of the arcturus generator.

This is Arcturus Ascendant of the Vis Uban expeditionary fleet. Make no hostile moves against this ship, and we will not fire a shot.

It began to scan the surrounding area, taking in information about the races and ships that flooded the cluster.

SeaQuestian Jumper Cockpit

"Great. Its a Gate Builder ship."

"A big one too."

"I've seen bigger."

"Yes. I'm willing to bet one of our Atlantis class cruisers could take that puppy on."

"Got no arguement from me."

"And I bet you won't take the bet either."

"Nope."

"Well, we might as well let Botany, and through them, Altera, know that Gate Builders has arrived."

"Aye, relaying back to the colony know."

"Hey, I'm picking up a Stargate activation on long range sensors."

"You sure?"

"With that waveform, it couldn't be anything else."

"Let Botany know to have High Command have Ferengi Consortium send a ship containing one of the new batch of Stargates to this planet and pick-up the Jaffa prisoners in exchange."

"Adding it to original message."

"Let the planet below know and then lets head off for the site of this new Stargate activation. Oh, and let them have the co-oridnates for the planet if they want to send anyone to investigate with us."

"Understood."

Transmitted to planet claimed by Tigerlan:

We have detected a Stargate activation on an unclaimed planet and are heading over to investigate. We are sending the co-ordinates to the planet in a seperate file attached to this message. Feel free to send some of your people to help us investigate. As for the matter of your lost Stargate, we are having a ship stop by later to drop a new one off and pick up the Jaffa prisoners reserved for us in exchange.

Warning: SeaQuest false Alterans detected. Ship status: red alert.

The cool blue lighting of the Alteran battlecruiser turned to a harsh red as klaxons sounded. The crew rushed to battle positions, and the scientists stood around nervously, unable to do anything but monitor the status of the Arcturus generator. If the ship was destroyed, the containment would be deactivated, caused a system-devastating explosion. Drones were powered up and ready, and the energy weapons were prepared for battle.

"Pananabian authorities, please excuse the power spikes. Our weapons automatically activate when certain enemies are detected thanks to our AI system. We request that you allow us to remain in a state of alert, as these enemies are quite persistant."

ooc work sucks back to it. oh balrogga the diplomacy parts are for you respond when you can. Dont worry about minor ooc, its ooc rants that belong in ooc thread. And tigerlan everyone else, no its not godmode. However its also not god mode that Tannelorni ships PBS and Phased armour block your innefficient in comparison weaponry. Remember your nations are tiny. They have a teeny weeny bit of resources in comparison. Nations like Balrogga and i have been Rping this for years. So when we say stand down you better. Compared to Balrogga and me your all cardboard lol.We have rp and Age to back us up.

For several days now the TEF had been setting up shop, establishing patrol parameters and making sure the system they currently inhabited was secure. All the while watching the antics of the others with bemusement. However things had not calmed down. Most of the people had been invited here by waterhelper to make peaceful contact, and colonisation amongst those involved. It was meant to bring people together, yet so far many lesser and petty empires, bouyed by delousions of their past grandeur had wished only war. Tannelorn was no such nation. They were firmly in the here and now..they understood that past glories could only be surpassed by future glories..and only if you did not rest on your Laurels. Enough was enough.

Tannelorns projected military might in this system was capable of eradicating all majour threats within the space of a week..and they were not pleased with the thought of random "Accidents" affecting their colonisation.

Another broadcast was sent out..this one far more aggressive then any previous ones.and directed towards specific people.

"Greetings once again to all those who inhabit this system. We once again extend an invitation to Water helper, Sea Quest and Balrogga to establish diplomatic relations with the Prefecture of Tannelorn, and through us many other diverse and potent domains." The transmission paused. "Terran confederation..Tigerlan and Alteran forces..Stand down immediately. Any more aggressive actions shall be considered an act of war against Waterhelper.This will be answered by a declaration of limited war by Tannelorn and the impounding of all military assets in the system. Failure to comply will lead to the destruction of said military assets in system."


The message paused again this time showing footage from previous Tannelornian wars. Skies turned black with hordes of swooping morgenreate high maneuver frames. Massively powerful energy weapons sawing ships far larger and more advanced then the ones in system in to pieces. Massive orbital bombardments blanking out the sun with clouds of dust. Ranks of Tannelornian knights rushing through a webway portal inside of Tor Yvresse craftworld overruning the defenders and planting their standard inside the dome of crystal trees. "We have the power to annhilate you if you do not comply. The path to peace and security is cooperation and respect..respect us and those it is owed, and we shall respect you and cherish you as friends. Do not comply at your own peril. The time to ignore the rules of Waterhelper is over. We understand the nature of the Jaffa attack and do not hold this against you..however any more aggressive actions shall be met with destruction." With this the message ended. Obviously some people didnt know the meaning of peaceful exploration and cooperation.


With this secondary transmissions were sent out, encoded to the Balroggan system.

Inside the Bridge of Dominion, Space lord Angaradh looked over the reports and intelligence on the forces operating within the cluster. The gentle glow of the planet bathed the comm centre in dark bluish light. For all intents and purposes the bridge of a Tannelornian vessel appeared to be exposed to space. Except for the small footprints left on the massive holo projectors making up the walls of the room, when one passed, you wouldnt be able to tell. Alteran, Terran Tigerlan..all the most aggressive so far.


He looked over the reports, his high collared uniform reaching his finely tipped elven ears. His long platinum coloured hair reached his shoulders. Alteran vessels..large, esoteric and innefficient power sources. Even more esoteric and innefficient weaponry. Armour and shields adequate. he looked over the report..watching the fighting between terran forces, the wraith and the Alterans. His mentats informed him that the best of their vessels may be the equivalent of a pre war Sword cruiser. He snickered softly and shook his head. the terran federation. He looked over the battle reports carefully, they were slightly larger then the rest had been, slightly more advanced. He started to laugh.



The weaponry they used had been tested and abandoned by Tannelorn over 100 years ago, in favour of more efficient means of power transfer. Tannelorn was the undisputed master of Energy weapons in the solar system. Having not only zealously maintained their edge over 300 years of development, but also had incorporated systems gained through trade, and vanquished foes. The eldar had been using lasers for almost 65 million years. When Tannelornian forces seized the craftworld during the second hellespontos war..they had fused their knowledge with the Eldar technology. Creating the current generation of Loengren and ingelstung Cascade cannons.

The Space Lord watched the rest of it with a bemused expression. He ordered a transmission sent to Balroggan space forces. The time had come to show the more primitive cultures who were trying to bend this system to their will who was truly in charge. This cluster was discovered by Waterhelper..and he asked only one thing of those who came. Tannelorn had traded exclusive rights to a world, in exchange for becoming the right hand of Waterhelper in system security. And now the time had come to flex the political muscles of Tannelorn. The navy would once again punish the wicked...

During the time of the transmission ranks of vessels had started to form up around the large city rock orbiting New Carpentaria city. 50 of the Tannelornian cruisers formed up, at the head were fully ten of the new battle ships..all of them Zweihander class. Of the 50 cruisers present only ten of them were shield class. They were going to war after all. Suddenly they sped up reaching almost 35% the speed of light before each one fired a small pulse opening a yellowish green rift in space time, which they slipped through with ease.

Approximately 4 seconds later an identical number of rifts opened directly over the Alteran colony world, the ships quickly moved in to position, a third of them pointing their loengren and ingelstung cascade cannons towards any appreciable power source on the planet. The rest of them moved swiftly starting to target the Alteran vessels..the power output of the Tannelornian ships exceeding that of small suns. These were the vessels of the Expeditionary force. The elite of the elite. With practiced drills morgenreate mk II and III high maneuver frames flooded out of the launch bays. With practiced grace and efficiency they formed up around the Alteran vessels, now on alert.

suddenly a transmission was loosed from the Zweihander class Battleship.. Lion. "Cease all aggressive actions immediately or face impoundation of your vessels. Failure to heed our warnings will lead to your destruction."

ooc ok now is the time to stop being violent. Alot of us came here for diplomacy rp and thats ok. If we have to have one or two more big battles thats fine by me haha. So lets get to diplomacy and first contact and all that fun stuff. Violence isnt the only thing we can do you know. And do look me up.

"The Pananab Fleet will aid our Alteran Allies however possible. Stowes still considers you allies, all though the talks were never completed, within a reasonable situation."

OOC: I'mreally not here for diplomacy. I'm here to colonize a planet and to get completely involved in the next fight.

OOC:
The Fifth Stowes Bi-Fleet severed the Warp Drive. A large cluster of M-Class planets had just been discovered and tensions were gorwing with the claimers. Bi-Admiral Tur'ah Ku had contacted the Panrabia with his intentions. If this sparked into a war, Pananab would finally have its Homeworld.

They only wanted one planet. Pananab has colonies in severeal planets, none of them, however, are permenant. Tur'ah intends for this colony to be the only permenant Pananab colony, however small.
Thats what i ment i sent my ships in but apperantly you ignored me so...

IC:
The classical fleet approched the unknown colonists and sent out the following message while the Archer class dropped back and targeted their [long range (o.2 light year though accuracy really suffers at that range and the recomended fireing range is 1 light min)] torpedo launchers at the ships surrounding the planet while a message was sent out.
Unknown race please state your intentions in this system or will will defend our right as a nation and defend our territory.

((I couldn't understand you because of your spelling.))
"We are a colonist fleet sent by the Pananabian Fleet. This star system is unclaimed and we were the first to get here, therefore this system is ours. You have no grounds to threaten us in our own space. We are asking you to leave our system or we will use your ships for scraps."
The Pananab fleet targeted their weaponry on the Waterhelper ships. The Pananab Fleet was outfitted with more than just Torpedo Launchers and could fire at any range. While most of the ships seem to be pieces of junk, the Pananab shields were quite powerful and the structural integrity of the ships was not to be underestimated.

ooc well the next fight is up, its up to the gatebuilders to make the next move. And i wont be on for another few hours after this posting so respond please. then log it. And gatebuilders dont do anything militarily other then this if you can. You are currently in a crisis of epic proportions lol. And Pananab any aggressive actions towards waterhelper will result in a declaration of war on you. No hard feelings its totally RP based. Its not your territory, its waterhelpers, however balroggan forces and Tannelornian forces do claim their star systems..however thats is because we agreed to help him police the cluster.

*****New carpentaria Colonisation process****

The first hab complexes had been layed down on new carpentaria. The core for which a massive city would form had been layed down. Still in the dying light of the red sun of New carpentaria, the complex looked very pleasing. Everything was coated in a red gleam..the massive blue black jovian planet filled the sky above, the sky almost seemed to lead in to it. To a casual observer it looked almost as if the gas giant could swallow you as you looked up. Pilots performing standard recon had logged that if one hit the equator on the world, at the right time.it appeared as if the massive planet moved towards you..an unsettling sight to the Tannelornians..who were used to living inside asteroids and space craft. Still it was a welcome home and the first few waves of skilled laborers landed were excited. They had decided after all to name the new city..Hope. And it was the hopes and dreams of Tannelornians come true. An end to overcrowding, to water shortages, to food shortages...and it could not have come sooner.

Message sent to Tanelorn and Waterhelpers:

"We fully agree. We need to coordinate our forces and actions to better curb the violence that seems to be spreading through this cluster like wildfire. If we can set up a central command center and a sensor grid to monitor the Cluster, we might be able to arrive in time to catch these criminals on the act. If we have to, we could not only combine our forces, but pull in additional ones if needed."

"We need to show these nations we are willing to go the full extent and enforce the agreement they afirmed when they requested and accepted the territories granted by Waterhelpers. I am fully prepaired to not only evict the violent nations but also to eradicate the very worlds they are squatting on."

"We are almost at the meeting and will arrive within 10 minutes."

AHHHH!!!!... those voices would haunt rear admiral Samuel Stevens (Im really inimaginative) for the rest of his live... if he lived after this. He sent out a distress call as the fleet was thrown into the fray. The artillary began launching their quantum torpedoes at the fleet that slammed into the enemy ships at warp three adding kenetic damage and the gravity/ antimater (initial exposion caused by am)/ timedistortion/ etc damage. the Destroyers launched their 'super' guns at the enemy sheilds and flooded extra power to the sheilds. The secondary inetial dameners were ativeated incase any quantum singulatities were used against them and the trsporters began spreading nanobots around the planet and in the atmospher and began earting any unsheilded material that their collective AI determined a threat. (that means artificial or sencient)

(note: you people who think SW tech is better then ST that is mostly true exept in photon/ vs proton proton have a yeaild of 1 kiloton- 150 megaton photon torps are a max of 54 megatons or something so it is only somewhat true. but if i remember correctly a quantam torp as a max of 150 megaton (they are in isoton but i read the star trek tech manuel))

OOC: So, is everyone just ignoring moi?

OOC: technically you aren't at a planet or haven't attacked anything so how do we know you are there?

OOC: I kinda figured with all the hostilities you'd all be on high alert. Especially when a Chronosian vessel appears :D Ask Pananab; he knows :P

((My fleet can handle itself.

And, yes, Chronosia is not a force to be dealt with. All though I do have an idea on how to really piss him off. Not gonna say it, though.))
The Bi-Admiral sent a secure Yellow Caution Alert to the Rest of the Fleets. Should any of his ships be damaged, the entire Pananab Fleet would break off from whatever it was doing and collaborate on that one spot. His fleet could handle itself, but for only a short time. The messages would reach the Stowian Fleet within 1 hour. If the Panrabia came calling, they would be obliterated, but the Bi-Admiral realized that he would probably be wiped before that time, so he made a crack at diplomacy.
"Greetings from Pananab," the Bi-Admiral said in his Hail, "I see we're all in a bit of a fuss over this dinky little planet. We really don't mean any harm, we just want another colony that we might someday call home. Pananab will recognize this entire sector as Waterhelper, so long as they recognize this one system as ours. And that your space claims don't block us off from expanding further into the galaxy. It's just small little corner of this sector. We won't hurt you."

As the message came through the ship's guns were silent.
Well technically we have devided up the star cluster in to 20 (18 because i gave Tannelorn two with the aagreement that he would help police it.) suections. we would be hapy to lease one to you. The only universal law it that you dont fight. *he mutters* one that is hardly kept... *more mubling* is that agreeable?

"An entire section? This is more than acceptable. This sector is now Pananab space, and I do believe you're all here uninvited. We would like to enjoy some privacy for the moment."
The Yellow Alert signal was canceled.

*the admiral laughed*
Well just dont break the rule... or we have the right to evict you. Also we would like to encourage trade.
Then a message came in from Xiejing (like beijing just west not north lol even though its space) saying to the central system of the cluster where a governing council was being set up with Tanelorn, and Balrogga as senior representatives with the ability to veto anything if two of them agree, the presidential position held by the owner of the system, and the representatives of the other nations that require a majority vote to over rule the senior members or owner. The ships left for the system leaving Pananab to their own problems... for now.

OOC: sounds like UN

Messages

In response to the Tannelorn message:

We are willing to accept your representative at our colony planet. The only ship currently attached to this world is a shuttle that is out scouting the star cluster and are thus unable to leave the surface at this point in time. Feel free to stop by and set-up an embassy if you like. We aren't planning on going anywhere and we have our Stargate set-up and can get ground reinforcements if we are attacked from any of the hostile nations setting up colonies in this star cluster.

Neo Roma - Botany

The pre-fab parts for the colony continued to be brought through the SeaQuestian built Stargate and assembled. Buildings for labs, colony management, and other various functions were going up quite quickly. Of course, buildings made out of local materials were also going up.

OOC: @Chronosia: Alot of IC posts are overlooked due to OOC posts and concentration on IC stuff. Just an F.Y.I., I noted your post, I'm just not in a position to do anything about it right now.
@Waterhelper: Star Trek style torpedoes can only go 20% faster than the current speed of the ship that launches them. Thus, they can only be going at warp speed if the ship firing them are at warp. I can provide the research I did on them that states the cannon info on Star Trek style torpedoes.

ooc Chrono is chaos..understood. And his nation is actually bigger then mine! well in part do to my population control lol. Anyways yes if there is a chaos vessel around. Time for full alert however..Tannelorn doesnt know about chaos..and most of us dont so one little addendum in the RP thread sorry to do this. Guys we dont know he is bad unless someone tells us. But if chaos he is VERY VERY bad. However its even worse. He isnt chaos..he is the imperium. Lets just say i think Tannelorn and the imperium will get along very very nicely..come on down.

Please remember to use the OOC Thread for OOC Material.

OOC: I know the torpedoes cant go to warp. They already have a warp sustainer and antimater. I just increase the size of the torpedos (archer class has no other weapon so basicly its just a bridge, toredo rooms, hyperdive, and crew quarters) and incoperate a mini warp drive that propels it using a extra container of antimatter and matter for fule and the next 0.1 light years from the torpedo warhead itself. Also the quantum torpedoes i use are not torpedos in a traditional sence but use a small (1/2 cm) [dormant] quantum singularity that is activated by the initial amntimatter explosion and lasts for 5 seconds and has 1 terrawat of energy in that time span. (like a quantum singulatiry that powers romulan warbirds)
IC: A message was sent out to all the ihabitants of the cluster for the creation of the council.

Captain Sokylov was pacing the bridge as he awaited the arrival of Major Torov with information of the planet. A few minutes later Torov entered the bridge with a furious look on his face.

"Where is the information, Major?" Sokylov said in a strict tone.

Torov replied,"Fighters of unknown class and origin attacked our cruiser and scouting team. I am reporting six casualties and one MIA."

Sokylov,"One MIA? It is assumed Colural is dead, Major. We must return to New Siberia and report this to Admiral Kra'Dem." (They have not heard about his promotion yet.)

"But..."

"But what, Major" Sokylov interupted."

"I never leave a man behind. I must go back." Torov answered.

Sokylov,"This is unacceptable, Major. Colural was expendable to our mission. Now get back to your post!"

Major Torov would have turned around as he was heading back to his post. Instead he gave the Captain a sucker punch to the jaw.

Torov,"Colural is still alive Captain and I intend to go back with or without your permission."

The guards were about to apprehend the Major but Sokylov rose up.

Sokylov,"NO! Let the fool go he will surely die on that planet. He will die in vain and that will be his punishment."

Major Torov took the Turbolift down to the docking bay and returned to his cruiser. His men volunteered to go despite the odds. They loaded onto the ship and prepared to take off but the docking ring would not let them go.

"Command release the docking ring." Major Torov ordered.

Sokylov,"I intended to let you go Major, but not in an Imperial vessel."

"Fine so be it!" Torov yelled.

The comm link cut off.

"Target the docking ring, then switch all power to shields and engines." Torov ordered.

"Yes sir." replied a crewman.

The cruisers turbolasers destroyed the docking ring and blasted out of the docking bay.

"Status report." yelled the infuriated Captain.

A crewman in the pit replied,"Our docking ring has been disabled, sir. They targeted it with turbolasers."

The Captain pounded his fist on the viewport."What are you waiting for lock on the tractor beams."

"We can not get a lock-on they are out of range."

"THEN FIRE EVERYTHING WE GOT AT THEM!" replied the infuriated Captain.

As the cruiser was about homefree a storm of turbolaser and laser fire was released on the fleeing cruiser.

"What is the status on the shields." Torov asked.

"Sir we are taking some severe hits on the back quadrant." The Lieutenant replied.

A few minutes later...

"Sir they stopped firing." the Lieutenant replied.

Torov replied,"They probably sent in fighters."

And sure enough his hunch was correct a group of 5 TIE Fighters and 2 Bombers were attacking the ship.

"Sir we can not take more of this. One more hit by the bomber and we are done for."

Torov,"Looks like this is it."

Then, to Torov's surprise 5 TIE Fighters appeared out of nowhere killing the TIEs.

Delta Leader,"We are coming with you Major."

Torov,"You will be counted for treason but I guess that is to late now. Hook up on the racks."

The TIEs did and the cruiser made its decent to the planet on its illegal mission of rescuing Colural.

Meanwhile in orbit around New Siberia, the bridge of the Black Death....

Captain Ulgand,"Admiral, we are recieving a message from the Tannerlorians."

The Captain hand him the datpad. Kra'Dem read it and replied,"Tell them we will send a representative to this council, but we are mostly keeping a neutral stance."

Message to Tannerlorn:

We will send Moff Deala as our representative. Moff Deala is an excellent diplomat on the homeworld and will excellently represent us in your council. To remind you we are taking a neutral stance and she will remind you every time we are pressured into war.

Message ended.

OOC: I know there aren't supposed to be any wars but who knows you know.

Around Draconus Prime, the central colony world The Empire is maintaining in the cluster, several large structures faded into existence. The ships escorting the structure Emerged from T-Space into Real Space along side the two shipyards, the Blackstone Fortress, and the starbase.

“Governor, the support structures have arrived. The starbases are being forwarded to the other four colonies in the territory and the shipyards are being set up near the sun. The Blackstone is in orbit and it is ready for you to take command.”

Governor D’Beus set down the pad he was reading. The supply requisitions could wait for a few minutes.

“Good, has the Homeguard arrived?”

“Yes, they escorted the stations through T-Space. Our defenders have begun patrols of this system while the other four stations are being escorted by their system’s Homeguard. We have been given Primary System Status due to the importance of Draconus 4.”

“Good, start preparations for receiving our guests. Make sure the Blackstone has the area set up for the security conference. If we are going to have something be the symbol of our authority to police the cluster, it might as well be the Blackstone Fortress. Also request the backup of one of the Imperial Task Forces. The presence of a Planet Killer might cause some of the unruly nations to settle down. I also want the extra ships here so the meeting doesn’t drain resources from the 2nd Imperial Navy.”

“But Sir, that technology is old. We abandoned it after we bought them from Cam III almost 700 years ago. Any of our ships can easily destroy a planet.”

“I know. It seems the only thing these young nations respect are large gun barrels. If I had my way, I would just implode them out of existence and be done with the whole matter. Inform Waterhelper and Tannelorn we are ready to receive guests.”

The Imperial vessels hovered in the void; as the crackling runes of glorious entropy shimmered upon their hulls; as they moved like sinewy vipers through the void; gleaming agents of Change and Progress. A man, at least once it had been a man (now it's flesh ran and froze and reshaped for Chaos), moved to the side of Lord Mortucal; looking up at him with seething, bleeding eyes.

"My Lord...We arrive."

"Good, open communications. We shall address those before us."

"Aye, Lord..."

This is High Lord Kai Mortucal of the Chronosian Expeditionary fleet; we come to claim worlds and found colonies in the name of the Imperium. We bring the word of our Emperor to the far corners of the universe; the teachings of glorious Chaos. We request safe passage; lest the Hell-fleets of Pyaray claim your souls, dead whips wrack your flesh, and bloated hands ever turn the great oars of the fleets of Chaos!

Two Imperial vessels Emerged from T-Space, fading into existance as they entered Real Space. A comm line was established.

"Greetings High Lord Kai Mortucal. We ask that you wait until we hear from the Founder word of your request. Once it is approved, we will escort you to your new territory. Our presence is only to show the others you have been accepted by the Founder."

"We are glad to see you once again. I am sure the Governor D'Beus would like to meet with you at some time. Even if the Founder does not accept your request, you will get safe passage to Draconus 4 if you wish to be our guests."

Messages

In response to the Waterhelper message:

It is unkown if you have a location choosen already for the conference. However, we are willing to allow the conference take place on Botany in Neo Roma. As we were not involved in any of the recent conflicts, we would be considered neutral ground. As long as you make sure no one attacks us, we will gladly host the conference for you.

In response to the Chronosia message:

We, the people of Neo Roma, Botany, latest colony of the SeaQuestian Empire, acknowledge your presence in this star cluster. Please note, that the nation of Waterhelper has claimed this entire star cluster and has allies willing to help them maintain this claim. If you want to start colonies in this cluster, you need to send a request to Waterhelper.

Unclaimed Planet Where Jaffa Are Setting Up Base Camp - Lunar Orbit

The SeaQuestian Jumper Phased back to Real Space in Lunar Orbit of the unclaimed planet where the Stargate activation had been detected.

Cockpit

"Detecting a Ha'tak class vessel."

"Engage cloak."

"Aye, cloak enabled."

"With an Ha'tak, it could be Nebarri_Prime."

"True. They do have access to Stargate technology as well."

"But this isn't their style. At least, not one I know."

"Agreed..."

"Reading what appears to be a Carrack heading for the planet's surface."

"Follow them down. Stay in their wake. If they manage to pick us up through the Phase Cloak, we'll look like a sensor echo."

"Aye. Altering course."

Exterior

The cloaked SeaQuestian Jumper smoothly inserted itself into the wake of the much larger Communistic Govts Carrack and began following her down.

The ships left for the system leaving Pananab to their own problems... for now.

just after the other fleet leaves, another one arrives, this one utilizing Covenent technolegy, it includes 5 covenent battlecrusers and 1 covenent capitail ship to surve as a command ship

We invite you all to help us with a new project codenamed "Utopia"(compare it to High Charity from halo 2), it is a project for peace, I hope it will bring us together, my entire Millitary budget will be going torwords it. I hope others will pitch in, or this dream will take years to compleat, but together we can finish it in mere months.

A voice blared over the building's P.A. system: "We've got an unscheduled off-world activation. All hands, Class A alert. Report to stations."

Men and women, Draconians, Furlings, and Alterans, were running about getting into position.

Neo Roma, Botany - Gate Building - Control Room

"Shall I close the iris?"

"Not this time. Do you have the address of the incoming Gate?"

"Yes, sir. Its the one controlled by Tigerlan forces."

Neo Roma, Botany - Gate Building - Gate Room

Twenty-four Furling marines in their Jaffa inspired armor waited with their plasma spears at the ready and P.P.R.s hanging from should straps for the Tigerlanian 5th FOXHOUND team to come through.

To seaquest:
We have chosen the centeral sector as a free sector where you can trade material with the other nations. the center system also has a M-class planet and is going to be where the governing body will do its... governing.
to all:
If anyone would like to trade we have set up a free trade market in the centeral sector here. (next to the one whoever clamed it i forget i cant keep track this is getting to big) It also has embassies set up so you can discuss political situations there.
*I send a nanobot ship to the site of the "utopia" to help with anything that might be needed.*
Communistic Govts's system:
*my ships arrive at the planet and start scanning.*
OOC: My quantum torps are 1 terrawatt because the quantum singulaity in romulan warbirds [of the 24th century] have a power output of 4 terrawats and the quantum singularity in the qantum torp is 1/4 smaller.

Messages

In response to the Waterhelper message:

Acknowledged and understood. We will see if we can get another of the limited supply of SeaQuestian built Jumpers sent through the Botany Gate so we can have a shuttle to transport goods and ambassadors to and from the trade zone and a second to explore what we can of the cluster.

"We are here on behalf of Tigerlan, you offerd us a chance to investigate something, we are the investigators" stated Jon and Anna in Unison

Neo Roma, Botany - Stargate Building - Gate Room

"This is Ambassador Lorinxx," said a voice over the Gate Room's intercom, "Stay there and I'll be there in a few minutes."

Lorinxx, one of the Furlings at the colony, left the Gate Control Room and appeared through one of the blast doors into the Gate Room.

"Wow....you look Tigerlanian, It is good to see a fimilier race around here, I am FOXOUND 107 AKA Jon"

"I am FOXOUND 114 AKA Anna, our races seem to share the same ancestry"

Just at that molment Grand Admiral Valdimier Lenov steps out of the gate, just before it closed

"Hello, may we speak privetly?" asks Lenov

OOC: a tigerlanianhttp://www.worlddreambank.org/L/LOLA2.JPG (sorry but its what I moddled my race after)

Neo Roma, Botany - Stargate Facility - Gate Room

Ambassador Lorinxx cocked her silver furred head as she thought for a moment.

"We can use the Conference Room. Only two levels up and over looks this area," she says as she points to a row of windows above the Control Room.

Please use the OOC Thread for all OOC material

((I lost the link. It should be put on the first post.))
Another Bi-Fleet warped into the Pananab sector. This was second half of Tur'ah Ku's Quad-Fleet. Udreth Philleph, the Quad Admiral, was infamous for being a mass-murderer of his own people. He came from a frosty planet full of barbaric people who were split into tribes. Udreth had been abducted by a nation studying his people and in the middle of the studies he woke up and killed 14 people. He took over the ship and disappeared for several years, fighting alongside Stowes in his fight against the first General-Admiral, learning how this technology worked. He returned, hoping to come back and become the king. Instead, his people were in a Civil War and when his forces landed, they were fired upon. Udreth grew angry and tried to stop the fighting, but when the Chiefs cussed him out at the Peace Talks, Udreth ordered the mass killings of his own people. The planet was nearly cleaned of sentient life. Teh rest of his kind was added to the Pananab Army as brutal soldiers. They were humans, actually, but they had grown to a huge size and strength.

Udreth had come to the Sector with plans of expansion. Waterhelper thinks it can order what Pananab does and doesn't do, in his mind, and he won't put up with that. Udreth's Quad-Fleet was enough to more than match Waterhelper's forces here, and getting the whole Stowian Demi-Fleet, complete with the Panrabia, could fight off its allies, especially if they could get the Gate Builders to help them out. Reports were coming in of Chronosian vessels in the area, too, who would be excellent allies in any possible fights.

Udreth began to gather tactical information and plans for attack. Waterhelper's ships were weak when compared to even the lesser equipped Pananab ships, armed with mainly Torpedoes. Many Pananab Military ships had such torpedoes and more had shields that could withstand blasts from them.

Pananab was given an entire sector, so they were to make more colonies in their claimed territory. For the time being, Pananab would reap the benefits of their deal until they took their empire from a hapless force.

Lenov, Jon and Anna follow The ambasidor to the confrence room

as the 2 others sit, Lenov remians standing untill the Ambasidor sits, then he sinks into the chair, he begins to cry.......

Lenov, Jon and Anna follow The ambasidor to the confrence room

Ambassador Lorinxx shut the door behind them. She then gestured at the table indicating they could have a seat if they wanted. On the table was a tray with a pitcher of distilled water and more than enough glasses for the current situation.

as the 2 others sit, Lenov remians standing untill the Ambasidor sits, then he sinks into the chair, he begins to cry.......

Lorinxx asks, "Allergies?"

"Im sorry Lorinxx......its just....you remind me of my Daughter" sobs Lenov thick wet tears runing down his red fur

"You must exuse the Admiral, his Daoghter was recently killed onbourd the Infinity, he hasnt been the same since" said Anna, while taking off her mask revealing a beautifull red furred face

Lorinxx nodded in understanding.

"I can see the common qualities of both species," she said, "if you would rather deal with someone else, that can be arranged. No need to cause you extra grief on our first meeting like this."

"No need for that" replied Lenov as he tried to straghten up, wiping the tears from his face


"Now down to bisness"

"No need for that" replied Lenov as he tried to straghten up, wiping the tears from his face


"Now down to bisness"

Lorinxx asked, "Would you care for a tissue?"

"please" exepting the offer


"as you might have noticed, Tigerlan is running rather short on friends, I am here to propose an alliance between our 2 nations, I believe we can learn mutch from eachother"

"please" exepting the offer


"as you might have noticed, Tigerlan is running rather short on friends, I am here to propose an alliance between our 2 nations, I believe we can learn mutch from eachother"

Lorinxx nods in acknowledgement as she gets up and walks over to one of the cabinents in the room. She opens it and pulls out an unopened box of tissues. She returns to her seat and slides the box over to Lenov.

"Keep it," she said, "we have plenty more where that came from.

"Now, on with the meeting. I do agree that an exchange of knowledge would be an interesting first step. Would you mind detailing the origin of your species? Nothing classified of course, just the general stuff."

"From what we have been able to figure out, we were brought from another world by the Goa'uld and enslaved for manny years, when my people got word of a war between our Goa'uld overlords, we used it to our adventage, rising up and earning our independance, that was long ago"

"From what we have been able to figure out, we were brought from another world by the Goa'uld and enslaved for manny years, when my people got word of a war between our Goa'uld overlords, we used it to our adventage, rising up and earning our independance, that was long ago"

Lorinxx scowled and said, "The SeaQuestian Empire used to have some Goa'uld working for it, but they ended up betraying the Empire when they switched sides on us in the Cold War with the Macronesian Alliance. I can understand your distate for those arrogant bastards."

Lorinxx scowled and said, "The SeaQuestian Empire used to have some Goa'uld working for it, but they ended up betraying the Empire when they switched sides on us in the Cold War with the Macronesian Alliance. I can understand your distate for those arrogant bastards."

"they cannot be trusted ,Lorinxx" said Lenov

"they cannot be trusted ,Lorinxx" said Lenov

She nodded in agreement.

"Even though the Alterans kept them on a short leash, they were still able to keep their plans hidden from us.

"Still, we do have detailed plans of Goa'uld designed ships from back when we used to build them and use them almost exclusively."

OOC: This is basically a new development added to my story arc to explain why I don't RP with Goa'uld characters anymore.

"now I would like to propose a technolegy exchange, do you posses clouking technolegy for individuals? if not, we will offer you that in exchange for something else"

"now I would like to propose a technolegy exchange, do you posses clouking technolegy for individuals? if not, we will offer you that in exchange for something else"

"None that I'm aware of," replied Lorinxx, "but we do have access to several different types for ships of all sizes."

"would you like a demenstration?"

"would you like a demenstration?"

Lorinxx raised an eyebrow and said, "No need. We've encountered Goa'uld who possessed a similar technology a few times after their defection. Sadly, no intact samples were ever recovered. Lets just say, Nirti isn't going to be bothering anyone for some time."

"So are we open for alliance talks?" asked Lenov

"So are we open for alliance talks?" asked Lenov

Lorinxx nodded.

"We have a basic template that was drawn up for situations like this. We can fill in the details later."

She calls up the text on the wall display. The font would be quite easy to read. The basic document covered allowing trade between the signing nations, mutual non-agression agreements, and a section on providing relief to a signing nation if it was needed (ie, like if a disaster (natural or otherwise) occured, in one nation, the other would be allowed to ask if aide was required).

"See anything you want changed?"

"Everything seems to be in order, I look forword to a healthy friendship between our 2 nations"

"Everything seems to be in order, I look forword to a healthy friendship between our 2 nations"

Lorinxx nodded and passed him a PADD and a stylus.

"To complete this, just sign your name on the line and I'll sign mine. That will make it official."

Lenov signs his name on behalf of the Tigerlanian Goverment

Valdimier Lenov

Lenov signs his name on behalf of the Tigerlanian Goverment

Valdimier Lenov

Lorinxx also signed her full name, with rank: Ambassador Lorinxx Tla'Kig'Tol'Mak'Illy

As both names were signed, they appeared at the bottom of the wall screen in the appropriate section of the document. After that, two copies were printed out, one for SeaQuest's records and the other for Tigerlan's records.

Lorinxx retrieved one copy and handed it to Lenov.

"Here's your copy."

"thank you, It is good to know that Tigerlan has an ally in this large and dangerus cluster, I will need to report this,will you grant me acess to your transmitter?

"Actually, I can do you one better," said Lorinxx.

She takes a device out from one of her pockets and slides it over.

"This is known as a G.D.O.. It will send a transmission through the Gate before you step through allowing Botany to know that the incoming wormhole is from a friendly site and not close the Iris."

She slides a slip of paper over to Lenov that has a series of numbers and letters on it.

"This is the code assigned to you, memorize it, and then destroy the slip of paper. Fire would be best. Let nobody else know this code unless you trust them with your life. You have to input the code manually each time you open the Gate to Botany."

OOC: Basically, Lenov can now come and go at will from Botany. So, he can go back home to report and come back later if he wants.

Lenov looks at the paper, memorises the numbers shows it to The other 2 and takes out his lighter and burns it to ash, over the ashtray of course (I assume you have them)

"What a fine instalation you have here, may I ask for a tour?" Just as he said that the gate begins to activate, a simple transmission from the the Capital ship to Lenov's Communicator

Valdimier Lenov, you have been promoted to Grand Moff then the transmission ended

Lenov sat in shock, there hasnt been a grand Moff in centuries, the highest rank in the Tigerlanian millitary and forign Relations.

"Congradulations sir" said Jon and Anna In unison, trained for years to do everything together, from eating to fighting,they also had something that the rest of FOXHOUND didnt have, they had love for one another.

"Congrats on the promotion," says Lorinxx, "as for the tour, their isn't much in this complex except for the Gate Room, this conference room, the Control Room, a Mess Hall, a few quarters, some storage, a few labs, and a medical facility. All the interesting stuff is outside."

She stands up and gestures for them to follow her as she heads for the lift.

They all stand and follow her to the lift

"Hmm... youve cought my curosity"

They all stand and follow her to the lift

"Hmm... youve cought my curosity"

In The Lift

"The Gate Room is twenty-six levels below the surface. We expanded and altered the natural cave system that was already here to suit our purposes."

Surface - Gate Complex - Interior

The group stepped out onto the Ground Level of the Gate Facility and Lorinxx led the way out.

Surface - Gate Complex - Exterior

As they exited the artificially altered mountain, they would find that it was a bright and sunny day. Lorinxx blinked rapidly as her eyes adjusted. A dozen meters away was the edge of the colony complex. Built using prefabricated components, it wasn't designed for aesthetics, but function. Artisans had already set-up shop to allow the use of local materials to add a sense of aesthetics to the interiors and exteriors of the buildings of those who wanted it. Beyond that, the edges of where farms were starting could be seen.

OOC: Got to love Fluid Time.

"wow what a beautifull sight" stated Anna
"it sure is" said Lenov
Jon Kept silent, collecting information on the envirement incase of an ambush (nothing agianst you SQ but that is how he was trained)

OOC: fluid time?

OOC: You've never heard of Fluid Time? Hmm, interesting. Basically, its a way to speed up part of an RP to a later point in time or it can be used to RP with multiple others at different temporal points in an RP. That's the best I can do to explain it.

IC: Lorinxx nodded.

She said, "While not the gleaming skyscrapers of New Cape Quest on Altera, Botany's Neo Roma is self-sufficient with most things."

Transmission to Waterkeeper

We of the Russo-Soviet Confederacy would like to set up multiple citys in this rich cluster, we would like a small cluster of 8 planets

OOC: spelled my name wrong...
IC:
We accept however there are established boundaries and you only get 5 M-class (devide the ammount on the front page by 20)

Captain Ulgand,"Sir our Carrack cruisers have finally uncovered the amount of planets there are in this system. There are about 4 Class 1 Planets (gigantic) including this one, 3 Class 2 Planets (huge) and about 9 Class 4 Planets. (medium)"

Grand Admiral Kra'Dem,"Relay a message to the Waterhelpers about our discoveries and our wish to colonize these planets."

Message to Waterhelper:

We have found four Class 4 Planets, Three Class 2 Planets, about Nine Class 4 Planets in the system we are curently in. We would like to lay claim on these planets to consolidate our position here and as our sector of the cluster. With your permission of course.

Message ended

OOC: I dont care if you put all 5 M-class planets in a system but there should be a limit of 9 planets so you dont put all of them in one.
IC: Its your territory just let us know if you have problems.

OOC: Sorry, im bad with that

IC: We thank you, we need any planets we can get. We will begin our move now.

Several Imperial ships fade into existance in front of the fleets of colonists.

Please follow us to your territory. We are here so other residents will recognize you are their new neighbors, and not any invaders.

The Founder is setting up a Council of the residents of this star cluster. Feel free to contact him about you attending.

Each nation had their own escort, which left after they were safely seen to their new worlds.

"Thank you for the escort, we are commencing landing now"

The fleets of AcclamatorNMOs began landing on the five planets given to them, unloading hundreds of thousands of workers and billions of tons of supplies to make the planets habitable for the billions of citizens following.

"Interesting. Now I am afraid we must be off, I am expected on Tigerlan, would you like to join me?" askes Lenov

Lorinxx asks "Any special weather requirments I'll need to prepare for?"

Lorinxx asks "Any special weather requirments I'll need to prepare for?"

"Well it is a Grand Ball, But I think you look beautifull in what your wearing now, In my humble opinion, you dont need to change a thing" said Lenov, blushing slightly

"Well it is a Grand Ball, But I think you look beautifull in what your wearing now, In my humble opinion, you dont need to change a thing" said Lenov, blushing slightly

Lorinxx replied, "I wouldn't think this informal outfit would qualify for a Grand Ball type situation. I'll have to pick out something more formal."

If she blushed, nobody would be able to tell through her fur coat.

OOC: Last post for the night.

*due to undisclosed reasons all the fleets except one are recalled. (I must make a note to myself that this is *currently* 5 refugee, 100 archer, 100 hernand, 20 arlington, and 1 java carrier)*

The first major district was finally completed on Combassa, the workers moved on to the next districts while thousands of shuttles carrying rich passengers from the extremely crowded streets of Monaoa. Old Venators were towing the orbital platforms and shipyards into place, many old patchwork ships were approaching the other planets in hope of finding refugee from the famine and death of the home worlds.

"Well I will wait for you then" Said Lenov

"Well I will wait for you then" Said Lenov

Lorinxx nodded and said as they walked, "Please, send a transmission through the Gate when I should depart for your world."

OOC: So sue me. I'm terrible at this romance crud.

Lorinxx nodded and said as they walked, "Please, send a transmission through the Gate when I should depart for your world."

OOC: So sue me. I'm terrible at this romance crud.


"Will Do,see you then" said Lenov
"I hope to see you agian sometime" said Anna while waving goodbye

Jon simply saluted, then they were gone, through the Stargate, on thier way to Infinity

Lorinxx nodded as she watched them depart and left to get ready for the Grand Ball she had been invited to. But, before she left the Gate Facility, she had her aides start filing the paperwork dealing with the new treaty with Tigerlan.

Lord Antonov walked with a certain air of pomp through the hangar where his horizont shuttle had landed. Surrounded by an entourage of armsmen, armoured in resplendent shining exoskeletons and plate, with only with finest cut uniforms underneath. They were unarmed save for a 4 foot long sword..for lack of a better term, at their hip.

They fanned out in flag formation, 12 of them in the shape of the divine flower of the Prefecture. They moved through the hangar till they approached a group that had to be the diplomatic envoy of the Balroggans. Lord Antonov bowed low then spoke. "Greetings from the Prefecture of Tannelorn friends. We welcome the opportunity to visit with you on this day, and we hope that we can appreach an understanding and learn of each others cultures" he finished. In the back ground a fair number of ratings were offloading large crates from the horizont....

As the 3 stepped out of the gate, a soldier Rushed up to Lenov

"sir there has been an accident, you will have to follow me"

"what is going on?!"

"no time sir, Follow me now"

"I dont think I will soldier, I dont like your Tone"

Just then the soldier turned his gun on Lenov

"I said Follow me!"

"Tell me whats going on! thats an order!"

the soldier opend fire, hiting Lenov 3 times in the chest

the soldier didnt Live to see Lenov hit the ground, Jon made sure of that.

Anna Picked Lenov up and threw him over her shoulder, they begane to run torwords the Ground base

While they were gone, A civil war had erupted between the Tigerlanian forces in the area, manny Admirals wanted to split off from Tigerlan and claim this system as thier own, But loyalists wouldnt hear anything of it, no one knows who fired the 1st shot, but now there was another threat to be handled, Tigerlanian forces would now have to worry about eachother

Cluster Capitol planet (center planet):
"is the senor net online?"
"Well the probes are in position but.... no wait they are online all 4,000 of them."
"Good" the screen starts filling up with dots of differnt colors. There was one for each nation and there were alot, mostly traders and colonists but there were also some millatary ships. Since the sensor net was coverd in a specially designed mesh of carbon nanotubes that made the sensors go around them and not detect them their sheilds were down and technical data started streaming in. The ships were catalauged and monitored to make ure hostilities didn't break out. *alarms start ringing*
"What is happening?"
"There is fighting in sectors 10 and 11. Between... no this cant be true!"
"What!?"
"Tigerlan's forces are fighting each other."
"se can to anything they are to powerful.... our ships also aren't here and are away being scrapped for new ones... send a message for renforcements."
"Yes sir."

Onbourd the Panzerfoust, A CD Class BS the loyalists had pulled back to the cargo hold, forming the line of battle, they all knew no reinforcements were coming, they would hold out as long as they could.

Then 5 Tigerlanian Bourder ships smashed into the sides of the ship, cuting through the hull in an attempt to reinforce the Loyalist forces, each ship countianing 40 Tigerlanian eliet marines and 10 Engineers.

General-Admiral Stowes was pleased. Waterhelper's alliance was beginning to fall to pieces with the Tigerlan Civil War. Stowes could use this to his advantage against the other powers in the area. Stowes arranged for his fleets to contact the Tigerlan factions. Deception and trickery would add the Tigerlan fleet to Pananab's and they would be unstoppable. This entire sector would be Pananab's.

SIC except to different Tigerlan Seperatist factions:
From: Pananab Central Comman
To: [Name of faction]

It has come to our attention that our Tigerlan neighbors have begun to do battle with themselves. It seems that your faction is definitely a formidable force, and we have no wish to have Pananab be endangered by this war. Pananab will be willing to aid you defeat the Tigerlan Loyalist forces should you, Admiral, join the Pananab fleet under the Tigerlan flag. This would be the first time something like this has happened to Pananab, a nation joining the Fleet under their own flag, but your soveriegnity is garunteed. You would, however, have to respond to Pananab Central Command and follow Stowes' orders in battle. He will, of course, listen to all suggestions.

The Zeji Armada was still roaming through the cluster rather unopposed, for now all they wanted to do was stay hidden. Their connection to the dominion could be revealed later, until then... They were a greater assett as an unknown ally than they were as open support.

*renforcments arrive in the form of 50 Cheyenne class, 100 Defiant class, 20 Galaxy class (battleship from alt reality), 100 Intrepid class, 10 Nebula class, 100 New Orleans class, 20 Prometheus class, 100 Saber class, 20 Sovereign class, 40 Springfield class, 100 Yeager type, 2 Daytona class carrier, 4,000 Peregrine class, 5,000 nanobot fighters, 10 nanobot ships*
(most (as in all but the Prometheus, Sovereign, galaxy, and Daytona class) of these are run by nanobot AI crews with minimal biological crews to reduce the loss of life.)

Captain Helsinki was slightly annoyed when the comms officer told her the news. "Alright...Alright..i suppose we are the closest detachment..prepare to jump to Esys3, where we will meet with the Zealous Crusader." Captain Helsinki frowned..ever since she had been given command of Valor, a sword class carrier commissioned at the end of the civil war..she seemed to have bad luck. Not one day had gone by where she hadnt had to respond to some distress call or the other..having the awful luck to be in the right place at the right time to help.

The 500 meter long carrier turned gracefully in the night, the long angled star ship had been performing routine surveys of one of the systems in Tannelornian control. Now she was about to jump in to a possible combat zone. As she engaged her urenbeck catapult, proppelling her to 35% the speed of light. She fired a smill pulse of light, opening a bluish green tear in the fabric of space time. She slipped through it with ease.

4 seconds later she appeared in Esys3..her 500 meter frame sparkled as slipped through the rift created on her return to real space. Zealous Crusader was already there, waiting in formation. Captain Graus had missed the battle of Hohenheim..his sword class cruiser was finished to late. He was always ready to take quick action, and as usual had responded to the distress call with more haste then was really necessary.

Inside the bridge of the Valor Captain Helsinki watched as the Zealous Crusader grew closer and closer in view. In all appearances being inside a tannelornian bridge was like stepping out in to space. Gravity reversal allowed the entire bridge to be utilised, not just the ground floor. Holo projectors transformed the walls in to view screens..the only trace they were there was small foot prints on the surface. It was a magnificent thing to do battle in a Tannelornian war ship.



Suddenly a holo image appeared on screen. Captain Graus's long blond hair and eager smile greeted her. "Captain Helsinki it will truly be an honour to do battle along side you this day..may heaven guide our wills and may the divine hand guide our aim" he said. "It is an honour to perform a mission alongside you as well captain graus" she curtsied and continued. "Need i remind you our mission is to stop fighting however..without blood shed if at all possible". She smiled an angry smile. "Yes Captain i agree" he bowed slightly. "However we all know how negotiations with primitives tend to work out" he was grinning now. "They may not be primitives, we dont know that for sure yet." This time she let her annoyance be known through a slight furrowing of her brow. "Let us proceed to the tigerlan system and begin negotiations then Captain" Captain Graus smiled as the holo image popped out of existence.

Esys3 was the third solar system catalogued by Tannelornian astronomy. It was a barren system consisting of one smallish jovian world, an angry purple in colour. It orbited a humongous Blue giant..the stellar radiation and storms from it actually blasted tiny layers of gasses off of the world. A fine trailing mist of particles constantly surrounded and was reabsorbed by the world. It was beautiful in its own way. The only M class planet in this system was a moon..barren and sunscorched..but still capable of supporting life. A miracle considering the fact that E3, the sun was emitting so much radiation
and heat. As one unit the two vessels moved in to perfect formation, and changed their heading. Suddenly they shot forward, engaging their urenbeck catapults. Moments after that two pulses of energy blossomed in to two rifts which the vessels slipped through.

12 seconds later the two Tannelornian vessels reappeared..this time in the Tigerlan system. They moved in slowly..giving their neutron sensors time to map as much of the system as their range would allow. Valor ordered half of her squadrons launched, as did the Zealous crusader. The morgenreate II and III high maneuver frames moved far ahead of the vessels..seeking out any possible ambush or threat.

The vessels started broadcasting a message. "All vessels cease hostilities immediately. This space is protected under the jurisdiction of Waterhelper, Balrogga and The Prefecture of Tannelorn. Make no more aggressive actions and heave to, to await representatives of the Cluster system administration."

Sensor net command center:
"sir two more ships has entered the civil war... they are Tannelornian."
"Well we have a agreement with them so lets see what happens"

*the Defiant class ships established a patrol route along the borders of Tigerlan space. They were stopping all iligitamate ships and made sure that the fighting did not expand to the rest of the cluster.*

Captain Ulgand had recieved a datapad from a crewman near the Communications portion of the bridge. It was labeled urgent and was classified to all personel but Grand Admiral Kra'Dem. The Captain then walked over to the Admiral and handed him the datapad with the urgent message.

"Sir an urgent message from our missing Carrack that was sent to the distress beacon 153 lightyears away from this location,"Captain Ulgand said.

Kra'Dem,"How long ago was the Carrack sent?"

"It has been about a week since the last message," the Captain replied.

Admiral Kra'Dem then read the datapad.

"It seems the Carrack was under comm silence during the meantime. It had discovered a large number of forces in the area and did not risk encountering them. They are reporting however that the Tigerlanian Fleet is ensuing a civil war and wishes support from their allies," Grand Admiral Kra'Dem said.

Captain Ulgand,"Will we send support to them? They are part of the home region that the IUCG is in."

Admiral Kra'Dem pondered on this dilemma. Should he aid the Tigerlanian loyalists and break neutrality, possibly going to war or should he remain neutral and lose the support of his regionmate. He made up his mind.

Kra'Dem,"Send 10 Star Destroyers and 20 Victories to aid the Loyalists. Along with 1000 AT-ATs, 2000 AT-ASTs, and 1 million Clonetroopers with Elite Stormtrooper Armor."

Captain Ulgand replied,"Yes sir. Lieutenant please tell General Pskov to prepare his men for transportation."

The Lieutenant saluted and headed to his post at the Communications portion of the bridge. Kra'Dem halted him and then said,"Also relay a message back to High Command about this."

The Lieutenant gave his confirmation,"Yes sir" and then started his jobs.

10 Hours later.....

Kra'Dem then watched the Expedition Relief Force head for Tigerlanian space. He placed the command of this force on the shoulders of Admiral Tan'For.

the blockade's scanners picked up the oncomming ships (and the sensor net). They then diverted to intersept them while sending out a message:
Communistic Govts ships you are breaking your agreement to nutrality. This is currently a civil issue and not a interempire one. Please turn back so charges will not be pressed. If this conflict leaves this sector you will then have the rights to defend yourself from a possible assault.

OOC: loophole here is the basis for the conflict if you want to started unless you have a better idea.

"Admiral we are recieving a message from the Waterhelpers," said a crewmen in the pit of the Star Destroyer Indomitable.

Admiral Tan'For walked over to the crewman with the datapad. He took it out of his hands and read the message.

Tan'For,"Tell them we will only withdraw if the Tigerlan High Command wishes it. The Tigerlanian Government is an ally of the IUCG back at the home region and we will help them anyway possible."

The crewman recorded and sent the message to the Waterhelpers.


OOC: Sorry Waterhelper but hes part of my region and I have to do something to help him because we are part of the same region in NS. Plus i feel i need to get more active on this side anyways.

OOC: I'm going to make a seperate war thread

The Rebels didnt have as manny ships as the loyalists did, they were spread among the crews of the Loyalists, couseing firefights within the ships. The story of the Panzerfoust was retold over and over agian, at 1st the Loyalists would apear to be loosing, then reinforcements would arive, turning the tide of the battle. The Rebel Ships remaning are 5 Vangence class SSD and 1 Eclips SSD, thier fighting was becoming frantic, the Loyalists had 20 CCS battle cruisers,3 World Devistators the size of small moons (Ive actouly been feeding them Unwanted moons) and a Covenent Capital Ship,, Victory was not possible for the Rebel scum, they will be destroyed.


Meanwile onbourd the Tiger Claw, Lenov wasnt doing well, he was suffering from high Fever and loss of blood,mumbleing something about a women Nammed Lerrinix, the Doctors had no idea who this person was. They had done all they could to help Lenov.

Neo Roma, Botany

After reading the message, Lorinxx looked at the Ensign that had handed her the PADD.

She asked, "Do we have any of those old Goa'uld Sarcophagi?"

"Yes, ma'am. Why it was shipped through the Gate, I don't know."

"Well, we can still make use of it. So few of them left these days."

"Agreed. Shall I send a response?"

"Yes. Give me a half-hour and I'll have one written up for you."

"Aye, ma'am."

The Ensign departed and came back thirty minutes later to pick up the PADD with the reply message.

Messages

Coded response on the same channel, same frequency, and directed towards the direction of origin for the original message in response to the Tigerlan message:

Botany currently has access to an old Goa'uld Sarcophagus. If you hurry, we may be able to revive him. Please, make haste.

Oh, and its spelled Lorinxx, not Lerinxx.

Signed,
Ambassador Lorinxx

ooc move it to the other thread. Gate builders been waiting on you to respond. Will delete when the responses are moved.

When Kiith Somtaaw had first entered the milky way after they had used one of the progenetor gates opened at the begining of the age of S'jet they had been far to busy setting up there colany stations and the scafold. However, now that they had established there base of opperations in the galaxy, located in the coma cluster, they began to explore. hey had already descovered the Alerrans, or gate builders, and were eager to establish relations with other races. However, the Kiith lacked the resources to undertake such a task at this time and so began doing what a Somtaaw did best, they began to mine.

The cluster had been picked because the large number of inhabitable world ment that some of them had at one pint or another colided and casused massive astroid belts, the one thng that Somtaw needed. As the comand ship Fal Corum exited hyperspace inside the cluster it had no idea that it was stepping into a war zone.

(sorry if the threads closed but this is exactly what my race needs inorder to build the Sii Nait comand ship.)

A single Idolator Frigate faded into existance as it Emerged from T-Space to Real Space. The vessel opened a channel and broadcast a message:


This is The Kraken, you are asked to hold position until your request for tennancy has been reviewed and approved by the Founder. Once that has happened, I will escort you to your new territory where you can establish a colony or five.

Thank you for your patience.



OOC:

As soon as Waterhelper approves, assume the frigate will escort you to where he places your territory.

General-Admiral Stowes was pleased. Waterhelper's alliance was beginning to fall to pieces with the Tigerlan Civil War. Stowes could use this to his advantage against the other powers in the area. Stowes arranged for his fleets to contact the Tigerlan factions. Deception and trickery would add the Tigerlan fleet to Pananab's and they would be unstoppable. This entire sector would be Pananab's.

SIC except to different Tigerlan Seperatist factions:
From: Pananab Central Comman
To: [Name of faction]

It has come to our attention that our Tigerlan neighbors have begun to do battle with themselves. It seems that your faction is definitely a formidable force, and we have no wish to have Pananab be endangered by this war. Pananab will be willing to aid you defeat the Tigerlan Loyalist forces should you, Admiral, join the Pananab fleet under the Tigerlan flag. This would be the first time something like this has happened to Pananab, a nation joining the Fleet under their own flag, but your soveriegnity is garunteed. You would, however, have to respond to Pananab Central Command and follow Stowes' orders in battle. He will, of course, listen to all suggestions.

The rebel fleet retreats to pananb, nearly destroyed but still able to fight

Note:

I believe the last post should have been in the Cluster War Thread.

O.O.C.: kiith somtaaw as o need for a colany at this time, they are a mining kiith and are only intrested in the astroids feilds in the area

I.C.: The 20 "worker" class multipurpose utility ships exited the main hanger bay of the Fal-Corum. They had a simple task: To disassemble the astroids in the area and transfer the materials to the comand ship. Mean while the Fal-Corum sent the following message to the Kraken: This is Kiith Somtaaw vessel Fal-Corum to neutral ship Kraken, we have no need for any form of planet based colanys in these systems and request that you allow us to begin colection from the astroid belts in the system, we have already begun doing so but if this is a problem please imform us. If you would not mind we would also like to bring in a couple more explorore class ships, the Cho-Sto and Nin-Toru, as well as a scafold assembely. We await your response, Fal-Corum out.

Sensor Net Command Center:
"Sir more ships, they are of a differnt race though."
"Send ten Intrepid class ships"
"Aye sir."
*Fast forward a day*
...Whatever system...
The ships approch the asteroid belt
"Unkown ships please state your intetnions."

OOC: I believe the asteroid belt consists of 10 iron-nickel to every 1 naquadah but whatever (I assume its made by the ancients in a genisis like weapon or soemthing in the remnents of a nebula. But then who has sensors to detect is artificial)

Message sent to Kiith fleet:

Attention unknown vessels

You cannot mine other people’s resources. That constitutes theft and we will have to stop you. Please retract your mining vessels and wait until The Founder arrives to sort this out. I repeat, cease all actions before additional steps need to be taken. Reinforcements have been called and their arrival is immanent.



Elsewhere:

Lord Antonov walked with a certain air of pomp through the hangar where his horizont shuttle had landed. Surrounded by an entourage of armsmen, armoured in resplendent shining exoskeletons and plate, with only with finest cut uniforms underneath. They were unarmed save for a 4 foot long sword..for lack of a better term, at their hip.

They fanned out in flag formation, 12 of them in the shape of the divine flower of the Prefecture. They moved through the hangar till they approached a group that had to be the diplomatic envoy of the Balroggans. Lord Antonov bowed low then spoke. "Greetings from the Prefecture of Tannelorn friends. We welcome the opportunity to visit with you on this day, and we hope that we can appreach an understanding and learn of each others cultures" he finished. In the back ground a fair number of ratings were offloading large crates from the horizont....


The two individuals waiting for the group turned toward them as Antonov spoke. He was an older gentleman, apparently human in appearance that wore the dark uniform of The Empire. The other person with him was obviously an Aide and seemed to be carrying a satchel. Neither was armed with any weapon.

“Greetings, I am Commander Da’Meian. I am glad to meet you and finally have you here aboard our Blackstone Fortress. We just recently brought it here from the Gleise System. We felt we needed to make a statement saying we were here to stay. If you will please follow me, I will lead you to your quarters.”

Da’Meian talked while he was leading Antonov from the hanger.

“When we set up this level of the station, we made sure you had your own suite of rooms. We accessed records and had them remodeled to resemble your own designs. I think we even got the correct shade of blue. There is even a private docking arm for your use so you can dock your ships directly to your Suite.”

Da’Meian turned a corner and stopped at a door. He indicated a bio-scanner mounted in the wall next to the door.

“Please use the Biometric scanner. It should set itself so you can enter.”

After the guest had complied, the door opened revealing their suite. The similarities were remarkable but things just wasn’t, right. The angles were off – just a bit but that was enough to bother anyone used to the right ones. The lighting was nearly correct, but just barely off again.

“…can have anything modifies by simply making the requests to the Computer. It will then schedule a crew to make them. Now if you follow me, I will show you to the Meeting Hall.”

He led the frazzled visitor to a large ornate door in one wall of the main reception area of their suite.

“Computer, Security Bypass.”

The door clicked and he reached out and turned the huge handle. The door opened soundlessly and he entered the room beyond. After following, Antonov saw a large room with two other large ornate doors to his right and across the room was a normal sized door. In the middle of the room was a large triangular table. The large doors lined up with three chairs, one at the apex and two at either side. The bottom of the triangle was curved and several seats were set up at that end. The whole thing resembled the playing field from an old 20th century sport. [baseball] Floating above the table was a large holographic map of the cluster with each territory clearly mapped and detailed.

“The room is set up to hold any meetings with any of the other residents. We made the bottom of the triangle curved to accommodate more of the residents. Waterhelper would sit in the center seat with you at his right side and us on his left. Each of us three has an omni-directional holographic display so we can view our data without the others seeing it. There is a projector in the ceiling above the table to display images. The image is a real time display linked to our sensor network. You can zoom in to view trouble spots or just to see what is in the area. We have rudimentary scans of the entire cluster but detailed local information depends if there is one of our ships on location.”

He walked over to one of the head seats and manipulated some hidden controls. The map zoomed in until Antonov could see the Blackstone Fortress floating above Draconus 4. Nearby he could see his own ship waiting for him to return.

“The table was designed so it can expand or contract, making it easy to use for both small meetings and large ones.”

Neo Roma, Botany

"Ambassador."

"Yes?"

"Altera has allowed your request and has sent a second Puddle Jumper to take you to the Cluster Conference. They only said to send it back when we are done."

"Good. Anything else?"

"They also request the status of the first Jumper they sent through."

"Let them know, that the last we heard, they were investigating a Stargate activation on an unclaimed world."

"Aye, ma'am."

"The Grand Moff is alive, he servived the procedure"

Lenov had been brought from within an inch of death, and changed into something that he would rather die then live as, He was a strong and handsome Tigerlanian, his bright red fur was compared to fire among his family, his white striped nose, his beautifull white tipped tail, all gone now, what remained was a shadow of his former self.

Encased in a FOXHOUND siut to protect his now fragil body,The price of one old
and tired soldier, his family, his Life, and now, his body

Understood Kraken, workers are being placed on standby. Waterhelper ship are intentions are as follows:
1.Collect resorces to help build up defences around the progenetor gate
2.Construct a scafold ship construction centre
3.Construct the Sii Nait within the scafold
(O.O.C.however, can we please be given a definate yes or no on the mining and entrance of my other equiptment, also the content of the astroid does not matter since Somtaaw have the ability to change atomic structures to create elements out of other elements, if i understand phase disassembler tech at least...., check the link in my signiture)

The frigate backed off about 500 meters to show it was not being threatening in any manner. After a few seconds of scanning an open channel was cleared and a message was transmitted.

"This is The Kraken."

"We thank you for your compliance. Please forgive our reaction or the manner of our words. There are some nations in the area who would rather force issues instead of working together. I also wanted to stress how important it was to wait. I personally apologize if I was being rude. That was the furthest thing from my intentions."

"We are currently waiting for the ship from Waterhelper to arrive to deliver the decision of The Founder. As I said before, I will personally escort you to your territory if he agrees. If you wish, you may come over and wait for his arrival on The Kraken. We will understand if you turn down our offer."

The Kraken turned to port so she was not pointing directly at the fleet. This was an effort to show they were not being hostile.

Thank you Kraken, however dure to the bio uplink nature of our comand systems non of our comand crew will be able to comply with your request and I very much doubt that you would beable to conduct negotiations with our mining crews. However, if you have a diplomatic party aboard we would gladly accept them aboard.

The reply came back a few seconds later.

"Oh well, I just thought it would make the waiting shorter if we were doing something other than watching the pretty lights blinking on each other's ships."

"What do you have for entertainment over there? I could come over and meet you but it would have to be strictly unofficial and off the books. We can let our diplomats actually do the whole first contact thing. I would hate to put them out of a job, then they would have to join the military and I would have to put up with them on my bridge."

Well, lets see....we have several bars and "recriational" facilitys, oh and we are holding several compertitions in the training sims..other that that these not much. However your welcome aboard, a word of warning: don't let anyone persuade you into a drinking contest because you will likely end up hang upside down with anything of value removed. We do try to stop these things happening but its very hard when the majority of your crew are miners who always see guests as a good way to get a laugh, and some spare change. Other that that though you should be fine.(sorry, had to be commical :) )

****Balroggan Territory: Tannelornian diplomatic delegate****

"We thank you for your kind hospitality, and your people as well..it is not often that our diplomatic overtures are greeted so warmly" Lord Antonov bowed graciously to his host. "These quarters are more then adequate, in fact they are rather spacious and luxurious compared to our own" he smiled a warm smile. He liked these Balroggans, they were far more reasonable and polite then the others in the cluster..and they knew how to adorn accomodations!

"The only thing we could ask is that the gravity be raised to 1.1 standard g's in our own quarters. The lighter gravity is slightly uncomfortable to us."
However we should get to business immediately. The fighting in the Tigerlan system is continuing unabated" he paused a moment. "And currently we have sent a very large force to deal with the continued and persistent unilateral attacks against newcomers by the Alterans, we are currently hoping to contain them." he stopped for a moment and looked over his opposite. "We have that situation under control..however we have little resources to spare against tigerlan" he finished softly. "Also the crates in the cargo room are for you, of course they shall be presented in a proper manner but contain nothing harmful, they are gifts, a sign of our willingness to be friends" he bowed again, then sat down at the table. "As soon as you are ready we can begin negotiations, our people have much in common and i believe that we would gain very much in a partnership." he sat and waited for the response.


****New Carpentaria****

For the most part there was little shuttle traffic from the three city rocks that were currently orbiting the moon of New Carpentaria city. Tannelornians did not see planets in the same light as others. To them they were only larger versions of the rocks they called home. However there was a steady stream of equipment and personnel flowing down to the surface of the world. The Prefecture squadrons and flotillas guarding the system were on full alert, due to the epidemic of minor wars raging throughout the cluster. Still it was a joyous time. All across Apollyon, Fenrir and Dunlanders keep there were raucous celebrations. Tannelornians danced, sang, drank..and made love.

Lovemaking was a national pastime in Tannelorn, as was singing and drinking. Since every tannelornian had their reproductive organs effectively in stasis..they were all incapable of producing children until they gained the right to rear children. This however did not mean that they did not have sex. In fact sexual relationships between a man and a woman were celebrated to an extreme extent in Tannelorn. Homosexuality was very rare but did exist in Tannelorn. It was neither abhorred nor condoned. It was simply there and not talked about. Still couples were made and broken as the peopel celebrated a new beginning for the Prefecture. They had been chosen to colonise the first planets under the full control of the Prefecture. And it was one first that was never more welcome. Tannelorn..was crowded.

Since the civil war the population had boomed...unfortunately the asteroid belt in sol only contained as much material as one small planet..and the rocks in the current area of it they inhabited..were full. The idea of expanding in the asteroid field was ludicrous. Too much territory..it would be impossible to police and to protect. Even for a nation of over 5 and a half billion souls..the amount of manpower and resources to do this were impossible to obtain. However solar systems were different. Much more could be done wiht automation..much more could be done to protect the valuable regions. Of course there was more territory in all to police but it was centralised..not scattered about like flotsam and jetsam upon the stars.

This was a grand new day for the Prefecture..and they would not let anyone spoil it.

A message came back:
"Kiith Somtaaw you have the rights to do as you wish to this secotr just dont blow up suns and the like"

Neo Roma, Botany

"Madam Ambassador, did you hear about the discovery on Altera?"

"Yes. I did indeed, Ensign. I also know that at least four of SeaQuest's allies have ships in orbit around this planet because of said discovery."

"Ahh. You know anything special about the discovery?"

"Now, I'm sure you got all the info your security clearance allows, Ensign."

"Sorry for prying."

"Not a problem. The young are known for their curiosity."

"We just received word from the Founder and would like to be the first to welcome you to your new Territory. We hope you might consider opening trade relations with your neighbors and the Balrogga Empire has established a station at Draconus Prime if you wish to visit, conduct business, or to regester a complaint with the Council. We will transmit the coordinates for all territories as well as their colonies and navagational hazzards."

All through the Cluster it would have been easily noticed. A warpstorm of this magnitude was so rare sensors had to be screaming in every system and on every ship inm the area. The Maw would be a new wonder throughout the area. A wonder, a terror, and an object of worship all at once. The glory of Chaos had been visited upon the Cluster, and things would be very interesting for quite some time...

One month earlier at the research facility on New Siberia....

The lead researcher, Dr. Ivan Pavlov III, was experimenting a way of utilizing Siberium as a power source for a city and possibly a planetary grade shield generator on a capital ship even possibly small frigates and starfighters. The tests on an isolated asteroid in the system shows that Siberium is stable if it is heated (which in turn can be malleable and ductile) or frozen at super temperatures, shot at by turbolaser or projectile weaponry, or has been radiated. The tests conclude however the only unstable characteristic of the element is if it is put through a fission-fusion-fission reaction the effects can be devestating, as seen in the test explosion 3 months earlier. If it is put through a fission reaction the effects are quite stable for some reason, a marvel of Quantum Mechanics.

OOC: Excuse me ill post more on this later... Writers block.

It had been a few months since the beginning of the colonisation, and things were running well. Already the prefab constructions were starting to work the way they should, building new equipment, and cities for the Tannelornian people.

However all was not well in the Pocket, as the cluster became known to Tannelornians. War was brewing in the far fringes, and to make matters worse, a massive..singularity..dimensional vortices..a something had opened up in Mini Miehms space, most likely do to their own endeavors. As for now the tannelornians were content to leave the strange phenomena alone.

The important task of building a new future was about to begin.

****Esys3 [Terturaga]****

The Lioness drifted lazily over the small moon of Terturaga, the name for the massive whispy gas giant whom it circled. It was a desert planet, not much else could be stated other then it had massive levels of Radiation.

Luckily Tannelornians natural augmentations made the radiation a non issue. However the heat..was killer.

++++

"Professor why are we on this heaven forsaken rock anyways, did we run out of room already?" a tall lanky armsmen asked, smoking his cigarette and sweating profusely. To say the blue star in the distance was hot, was an understatement. However something had been detected on this world.

Perhaps then, it was a clue to why so many of the systems in this sector contained habitable life, or perhaps it was a long ago junked space craft, or maybe a natural deposit of rare minerals. Whatever it was, Lioness was ordered to send down armsmen and ships researchers, to further investigate.

And she had, and currently they had set up base camp near the detected anomaly, but dust storms and savage temperatures reduced them to working in short shifts, mostly at night. However the Morgenraetes could survey the planet all day, after all smaller traces had been found, and they had to be sorted and catalogued.

++++

A pair of Morgenraete II's skimmed over the desert surface on jets of superheated air, kicking up an enormous dust cloud in their wake. Playfully they skated across the desert kicking up sand and carving symbols and letters in glass. However their fun abruptly stopped when they flew over one of the sensor "blips". They slowed and snapped around quickly, skidding to a halt. They moved in on foot, slowly, careful not to dig up any more dust. The 30 foot tall war machines walked cautiously towards the "object", whatever it was. The lead 'Raete walked forwards, pointing one of its plasma cannon fore arms at the pitted sandcoated metal structure it had uncovered.

In an approximately 60 by 60 meter area, instead of a fine layer of sand and dune..there stood what appeared to be...metal..of some sort of another.

"Notify the professor, she had best get on the lighter and move over to our position fast, we found something" Lieutenant Gorski stated flatly.

And that they did. As soon as Gorski approached the ship, his mecha lost its footing, then crashed through the desert floor.

Trooper Katherine Weiss stepped back, and attempted to pick up the lieutenant on comms. For now it was silent..so she stood back, waited for back up to arrive..and watched.

continued from last post....

Two Weeks ago....

After recieving the Lavarium from the Tigerlanians the research of the material was under way. After skimming the datapad full of information from the Tigerlanian Research Archives, Dr. Pavlov found Lavarium to be quite interesting. He then initiated his next project combining Siberium and Lavarium into a strong alloy. According to the datapad and the Tigerlanian research Lavarium is quite stable during a fission fusion fission reaction. With this knowledge at hand, Pavlov hopes to create an alloy for the UCG starships that were being created in the shipyards above. Siberium although highly explosive in power is highly resistant to laser fire, so much that, in some cases, actually reflect laser fire back at the shooter or at random spots. Other cases the siberium actually absorbs the energy. But the problem of the matter is through the use of atomic manipulation there is a fear of the ship exploding and perhaps taking the entire fleet with it let alone the system. The heat required to melt Siberium would be the heat of a Siberium fusion reactor.
The process would have to be done on a asteroid facility as were the tests. The asteroid belt found between New Siberia and UCGP 2 was a perfect location for the facility.

One week later...

The facility was made already and the testing initiated. To the scientists surprise the Siberium fusion reactor has been succesfully achieved and the Siberium has been melted successfully as well. Now for the Lavarium, which according to the Tigerlanian Archive, was easy to do as it is melted easily. The two were combined in the foundry and the first Siberium-Lavarium alloy was created. Pavlov and his research team celebrated in completing this endeavor and Pavlov quickly began testing plans that would ensue in the following week.

Present.....

After several tests with atom manipulation of the Siber-Lavar alloy, several asteroids being consumed by Siberium blasts, and a few lives being lost in the name of science, the research team finally perfected the delicate balance of the alloy. It succeeded in Lavarium stabilizing the quite extreme effects of Siberium and thus the alloy was rigorously tested on all forms of atom manipulation and nothing happened. After weapons testing and durability the armor proved extremely resilient. The research team was celebrating and the vodka flowed. Now the UCG has completed two projects: producing an armor and producing a form of shield generator utilizing the fusion reactor model on the asteroid facility. The facility will now make full production of Siber-Lavar armor and shield generators for the new ships of the UCG the Ryurik class Star Destroyer. This would be the only facility so far, but more will be made elsewhere in the system, perhaps on UCGP 5, 10, 19.

OOC: Ok idk where the "new organized site" is but I think I will continue on here till I find the new site I mite have to copy this into it. Oh yeah i have made the colony New siberia and well it has grown into a bustling colony. I think it has 200 million on it already mostly working in the Siberium shafts.

OOC: Pardon the Gravedigging, but I was told this was the thread where I gotta post to get in.

You lot still have room in that little clump? We wouldn't mind a few more systems to call our own, and present circumstances notwithstanding the region does indeed seem like a stable little piece of real estate.

~ Prefect Xenith Steele, Godulan Archon

Since nobody has answered this yet I will use my authority as Cluster Police to welcome you. Please go to the Cluster Map Thread and choose a territory that is marked as Unclaimed.

ooc absolutely yes, and welcome.

The United States request that it be allowed, to take territory in the cluster from the nation of sea quest, we have been in a battle with this nation over its arrogance and seemingly clueless violations of your laws, we would make a better tenant and are glad to help in the eviction of this unstable nation.


Sincerely
Secrtary of state Thomas Paine
Congress and senate of the United states
President of the united states

As Cluster Police, I hold it in my power to accept your request. I have made the changes on the Cluster map to reflect the new changes.

I suppose you might be intrested in assisting in the eviction of the former owners. Please report to Belle Terre if you wish to assist.

Declaration of the Enlightened Alteran Dominion

The territories known as the 'M-class cluster' have been seemingly usurped. The former owner, Waterhelper, has disappeared, and two pretenders have set themselves up as 'police'. These enforcers are not welcome in Alteran holdings in the Cluster, which from this point forward are territory of the sovereign Alteran Dominion.

The United States has earned its claim and its territory, if The Gate Builders attempts any enforcement of its pitiful declarations against higher powers the United States will have to enforce its claim with military force, this is your only warning.

[Whiskey tango foxtrot, over. This doesn't affect you in any way, TFU. Our territories aren't even close.]

Statement of the Enlightened Alteran Dominion

The Enlightened Alteran Dominion is fully prepared for any attempt to attack Alteran Cluster holdings. If any ship enters without permission of the Alteran Cluster Consulate, the system will be detonated.

(it dose I am in the cluster it affects all of the cluster)...

We stand by our warning

[Ahem. DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.]

Statement of the Enlightened Alteran Dominion

Your 'warning' is not very effective. Any attempt to attack Alteran holdings is guaranteed to result in the annihilation of attacking forces, unless they can escape something that light itself cannot.

Large and harsh words for a nation of your size, if you make any threats and any gestures of hostility towards the united states than we shall go through with our threat, that is all, other wise the cluster police will deal with your small infantile nation.
From the president of the united states

Statement fo the Enlightened Alteran Dominion

I should expect such words from homo sapiens. Your size is meaningless when your fleets are exposed to a naked singularity.

Surely some compromise can be arranged. Come, be of our number as we speak of things in Council. We can all co-exist most pleasantly. We ask you, as allies; come amongst us, know the truth of all that occurs. The Miehmish tried once to enforce their rule over the Cluster; let us ensure that such travesty can never again exist

Statement of the Enligtened Alteran Dominion

The Enlightened Dominion is not attempting to establish control of the Cluster, but is stating that Alteran holdings will not accept the rulings of foreign powers, and will destroy any holdings we have to ensure that a message is sent to that effect.

You will, then, be allowed to contribute to the overall ruling of the Cluster. That is why the Cluster council should exist; to debate issues pertaining to all of us. I did not accuse you of trying to establish control; merely implied that that is why some form of centralised government should, ideally, exist

Statement of the Enlightened Alteran Dominion

Alteran Cluster holdings are just that: Alteran. We accept no foreign control over our territories.

Regardless; please accept our invitation, that we might sort out affairs before this results in yet more turmoil and disorder in the Cluster. Were you to but sit down and talk; we would listen, and your national soverignty can remain unchallenged

I will make a reply in the Cluster Thread (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=476365&page=5)where the meeting is taking place. Please referr to that Thread.

Please use this Thread for requests to join and not for arguments.

There are other Threads that would be more suitable for that type of interchange.

Thank you

Hello, I would like to request to join the Cluster, if you do not mind.

Welcome to the Cluster. Please go to the Thread titled Cluster Map and choose a territory. There is a meeting going on in the Cluster Thread linked in the above posts.

Welcome naggeroth and yes, the more the merrier. ^.^

A single exploratory ship patrolled an edge of the 'cluster'. The Martian colonists had long kept tabs on this area of space. Thier sensors had seen quite a bit, and the Martians wanted in.

The Captain of the vessel in question had orders to initiate contact with the residents, he cleared his throat, and sent this message:

"Uh..I'm..uh...I'm Captain Richard Hawking, and...uh...On behalf of the Martian Colonial Research and Exploration Force..Is there room for one more in that cozy cluster o' yours?"

He slumped back into his chair, nervous. Because of what they had seen of the cluster, he didn't know whether to expect a welcoming invitation, or a hail of enemy gunfire.

A single frigate faded into existance in front of the exploration vessel. The ebon ship turned upon its axis until it faced the foreign vessel. The computers aboard the Martion Colony explorer alerted the crew they were being scanned.

After several seconds, a comm channel was opened and a message was sent.


Greetings from the Balrogga Empire.

We have forwarded your request to the proper personal and after our scans were completed, we was given the privlege of offering you one of the territories, provided you agree to fight only in the defence of the Cluster and abide by the Council.

If you agree, please follow us to your new home.

The ship began to move backwards and then quickly spun to face the other direction. When the exploration vessel began to follow, the ship lead them to their territory.


OOC:

You can go to the Cluster Map Thread and choose a territory that is unclaimed.

OOC: There is hardly anyone posting anymore. Please post more i dont want this thread to die.

OOC:

I plan on moving 2/3 of my Empire into my Cluster holdings after the dangers of the ESUS/GFFA war is over. I know Tannelorn is at this moment being troubled by events on Mars but afterwards I am sure he will focus more attention here.
