FT Civil War Idea

Thread here. Huzzah! OOC Placed here, please.

Note: I would appreciate decent RPers. You don't have to be spitting good, but just good.

Not so much as Civil War as in a battle between two different kinds of Evil. I'm interested in having my robotic portion (The Mechinus) betray the Aristocracy of the Totalian Empire. Of course the Mechinus make up 99% of the Empire, the Totalians being the masters of the government and diplomacy.

I'm having the Mechinus, a robotic army created a while ago to sap out worlds and drain them entirely to refuel armies, betray their Totalian overlords (whom are an extremely small minority). The Totalians are forced to fight back, and this is where the civil wars start. The list of planets my Empire consists of is as such:

-Kruikia 1-5 (Outpost Worlds, to defend against foreign invaders)
-Aslamaduun 1-3 (The three 'capitals' of the Mechinus, heavily armed, and extremely mobile)
-Maik' Uzin (The Gateway to the Inner worlds)
-Inurhia Minor (A Moon, not a planet, but still important to the first Inner world)
-Inurhia Major (The Planet, very important to Totalian military)
-Ashridusk (The second inner world)
-Minuras (Totalian capital planet)
-Dagoth-Jin (defensive planet linking Mechinus and Totalians)

It's a matter of assisting a heartless evil (The Mechinus) or a sadistic evil (Totalians). Totalius is on the Totalian side, mind you.

Please, if you are entering, tell me which why you are joining with and why. What each offers is this:

Mechinus: Military assistance for future endeavours
Totalians: Economic and future assistance

I've added you guys whom I think I know what side you're signing up for, and yeah.

As for most killing, the most killing will be against the Mechinus (as they are larger in number), but the Totalians are organic.

Any mercenary-ish people, the Mechinus do not have an economic system (they just go around leeching things from planets), so they cannot pay, hence the rich Totalians are the only ones who can pay.

And Thrashia, I will read.

Revolution (what the Mech faction is doing) spreads (as exemplified by the French Revolution). So for any nation (ie mine) with total control over the populace, that prefers to rule with fear rather than respect, the idea of revolution happening in one area brings up the possibility of spreading to local interests.

Lol, well you have to get their attention somehow, since remember all eletrical communication is controlled and cut by the Mechinus. The Totalians, as far as they know, used up the last of their final communiques on the help message they sent out, so you have to find them. It shouldn't be hard, since anything that isn't a lumbering plate of steel is a Totalian.

Payment isn't an issue to the Totalians, as long as you can get to them. Note that the Hand is already growing on Minuras, so your time is very limited, and there are alot of real Mechinus ground forces on the planet. The fortress of Minuraih (Minuras central core academy) is almost entirely levelled, and the sector you've landed in is soon going to go under Mechinus fleet bombardment once they reveal their true colours to the Abh entirely.

Hey Jenrak, anything on that planet have 400 fighters heading at? It is one of the outpost worlds.

The Kruikia planets have all been cleansed of life, and they've been latched on by the Hand. To take back Kruikia, you need to fight off the Hands. There will be alot of fake units hiding along real ones, so it's going to look much bigger than it really is.


@ All participants
The Mechinus 'Eye' units are simply their asthetic view. The core of a Mechinus unit is the heart, not the head. Shooting their eyes or their weak spots will only slow them down, but it won't at any measure stop them. You have to completely destroy the heart, as it can repair itself over time, and they usually can scavenge parts from destroyed machines. So don't be surprised when you see a Hydra drone with an Arachnid Battle drone assault cannon for an arm. Every Mechinus unit is compatible with every other part of every other Mechinus unit.

So to completely defeat them, you have to destroy any chance of rebuilding, aka desinigrate the remains entirely.

Another nasty unit is the scavenger, which takes spare parts from broken or destroyed drones and brings them to the mobile factories that turn them into new units, given enough metal is collected. Scavengers are very hard to kill, possible the hardest ground force to kill, though they're unarmed, so you can just keep firing at it until it blows up. It's kinda like the Harvester from the C&C games.

If you want to take advantage, you should know that the Mechinus are very automated and linear in their movement. If they win in a certain way, they continue to use it until it becomes ineffective. If they lose, then they automatically adopt a different strategy the next time against the same foe. If you pretend to lose against the Mechinus, than you can find the weaknesses in that strategy and goad them into fighting with it again in a more crucial fight. If you win, then you can readjust your forces to prevent surprise attacks.

The fact that the Totalians are being slaughtered is because the Mechinus were so quick and decisive and organized in their extermination that the Totalians had no time to respond.

Anybody trying to reach the Totalians your best bet would be the Totalians on Dagoth-Jin. Then you can have the Totalians there reach to Totalius in the Force. Then Totalius would tell them what to do next, and they would relay the information back to whomever talked to them there.

Right now, Dagoth-Jin is relatively safe against Mechinus forces.

Lol, it doesn't crawl around. It's planted by capital ships as a 'seed', which is a small metal pod a bit larger than your finger. It goes into the ground, and begins growing, much like a plant, though growing out of the ground, turning into a super-factory that sucks up minerals constantly to build on itself and create more ships. They are stationary, though they are fairly sentient, and can build up quick fleets to defend themselves, and they grow every second, sometimes becoming larger and heavier than the planet itself.

If left long enough, they can desinigrate the planet entirely.

The first one is Minuras, the second is the new Mechinus Organic Fighter. I drew both of them from scratch, so if you take these pictures, I will hunt you down with a fiery passion.

Lol, it doesn't crawl around. It's planted by capital ships as a 'seed', which is a small metal pod a bit larger than your finger. It goes into the ground, and begins growing, much like a plant, though growing out of the ground, turning into a super-factory that sucks up minerals constantly to build on itself and create more ships.

Hehe, gues your mind is just good at coming up with things. :P

So, Minuras is glassed (basically) and where exactly are your Totalians holding up for at the moment?

Believe me, I can come up with alot more stuff.

If you've read my post, you'll notice that there's a stark white, marble-stained ship that jumped into Hyperspace. That's the last of the Totalians on Minuras. Mechinus capital ships are camouflaged on their surroundings, so it's clearly not a Mechinus ship if it clearly stands out.

The Mechinus know that, so they're following it, and they're intent on destroying it.

Minuras is more than glassed - it's going to become nothing but a massive field of rock. The Mechinus are intent on destroying the planet, and by doing so, the shockwave from the planet's explosion being enough to wipe out all the fleets stationed at Minuras, which would certainly them a big advantage as they still have the Inurhia system and the Aslamaduuns.

An interesting fact - the Mechinus are all tied to the Master Program, a giant head that doesn't move on Aslamaduun. The Hands are controlled by the Head, and to stop the Hands, you have to find Aslamaduun and stop the Head. Though all three Aslamaduuns are mobile, meaning they can escape, so it would be difficult to pin them.

Sir we identified ships from the Dominion, Thrashia, The Humankind Abh, Jenrak, and The Transylvania" came from the CIC

Big problems here, my man. First off, my three fleets were nowhere near the other fleet. Lastly, you would not know my fleet. I bet you are asking why, right? Here is why.

The only person who knows of the FT version of the Dominion is CoreWorlds. How I have my three solar systems set up, a ship enters without a Dominion (My Dominion) made engine. The ships loss all power but power to run the life support. The people aboard those trapped ships are surrounding by Dominion ship. They are asked to pick, join us or die. And most of the time, the people fought back but never escaped. So, I repeat, nobody knows of me in the FT.

Jenrak

I see.

A note, Dagoth-Jin's entire system is the defense for a reason. It's laced with linked land-mines. If you detonate one mine, you detonate them all and blow the entire system and its adjacent systems apart.

It's the main reason reason why the Mechinus haven't fired yet - Aslamaduun and the Inurhia systems are nearby.

If anybody gets close enough to shoot at the mines in Dagoth-Jin, they can say goodbye to whatever fleet they have.

Therefore I suggest you do not send any armed units to Dagoth-Jin.

Another note, Minuras is completely destroyed, no longer in existence. The Mechinus fleet is vaporized in their suicidal explosions (which is respectable, as they flew towards enemy fleets, exploding everywhere with a force that could destroy Mechinus over and over again).

The Majority of Totalians (including Totalius himself) is there. -_-

If you detonate the system, the Mechinus pretty much win this conflict. There's Ashridusk left, but I'm assuming you've read my post, hence you know how badly the situation is going there.

There's no need. Special routes are made through the system to allow safe travel. It's in Totalian hands right now, so your fleet is safe from harm if it wants to move through.

-_- Where were you the whole time?

The Mechinus fleet forces at Minuras have blown themselves up to destroy Minuras in an attempt to destroy all the fleets stationed at Minuras.

The Totalians are holed up in Ashridusk and Dagoth-Jin.
