ok folks this is to be a new galactic world. we will have open rules here. this is to allow claims to worlds and sectors similer to Green Sun. in fact we are willing to work with them. I don't have a map yet so as soon as a few of you list here i will devise one. oh one other thing earth will be considered neutral terratory for now.

I'm interested. The Cartel wouldn't control a planet, but would be based out of an asteroid field. It could serve as a criminal/smuggling center.

sounds fine. at the moment the entire universe is open lol well except for my sector. I am glad that you have an interest in galaxy 1.

currently there is pretty much no rules here.
the genre is fantasy/nft/ft with some humor

when a few others show some interrest i will do a basic map. till then you have your astroid field. also just as an idea. do a basic sector map for yourself. post it here. its doesn't have to be great just dots on a black field will do. i am posting mine now as a possible example

kool nice post. have you thought about doing a factbook. I am still working on mine as of now so its not up. i see we have some similer ideas. i use the same "lost tech" theme, though i chose to make my whole sector a space war junkyard. that way i can get almost anything i want by just picking it up(saves on time) anyway cannot wait to work with you. try to see if you cannot get a few others into GALAXY1. I will try to get a poster i know on as well. admitedly i know only one poster,besides you. Galaxy 1 also has a slight horror genre as well. there is a loose cthulin wandering my sector as it is:rolleyes:.Ta'Xchl'-HoA'Tlhl---lord/master of the Dark/void/empty places--- Keeper/thief/not the rightful owner, of the Scroll/Book of Nxl'Shl----Master/lord of the eye of L'Rol'Thl. either him or his minions may turn up from time to time. at least until they are beaten in the origional post.:p

This evil guy can so up at my ship/station now-and-then. make things interesting. anyway, here's a location (http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h52/nx9100/schwullundenx3.jpg)for my ship/station, the Bari, (http://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h52/nx9100/SSD.jpg) in the Romanov Asteroid field. If you want, we can RP on my thread for now. Go ahead and have a ship arrive. As for more people, I'll invite my region-neighbor. But I don't know anyone else... at least anyone else whose FT. All I can say is keep bumping this thread and hope we get others interested.

kool we will have to see. hey you may have to repost that. make sure you tell your photohost not to resize the pic. its quite large. i cannot see your location. oh just as a point all of the ships in my region(schwullundex3) are based on the TTA books. you can look up two other posts of mine to see some of the basic ships. the large junkfields are filled with these things due to the last terran/alphan/proximan war. catch ya again real soon.

oh yeah they don't really have to be FT they can also be Fantasy or NFT. just as long as they are basicly steller based i ain't to worried about how they do it ;)

Strategos Ralk, paced back and forth, he was looking for some new territory to set up a military base for the Asteroid Legions, preferably some place with enough gravities where it took some minor effort to get up and walk around, and real effort to run around. A place with some nice local vegetation that might eat you for lunch if you weren't careful, but if you paid attention you'd be fine.

Muse was a good initial training ground sometimes, but he was looking for a new meat grinder. One of the probes in space had come up with a new place to look at Gnome, a rocky paradise with sparse vegetation, plenty of mountains, deserts, and rough terrain.

Also there was a nice asteroid field in the Gnome system where they could do mock shipboard maneuvers, landing and taking pirate vessels, protecting from raiders, and other legion anti-piracy practice.

OOC: Choose one of the sectors for us to expand to if you'd like.
[NS]Schwullunde
21-08-2007, 03:13
hi Commonalitarianism. you can expand currently anywhere in Galaxy1. the map i posted was an example of a basic sector map, that i posted for The Romano Cartel. it was never intended as the galactic map. which i haven't yet produced. if The Romano Cartel fixed his post map (which has been shrunk by the host site), i was going to move him slightly below my map. the lines on the map are just positional lines breaking up the Schwullunde Sector into smaller subsectors. for the purposes of this post however, use any basic map of the Milky Way for now. but if you like i can place you within the area adjoining the terran sector and the Schwullunde sector(this is about the same position i had guessed you were in when we first met. that particular area is actually bigger then schwullunde sector. your main borders would be the terran sector slightly above(toward the Core) and the Schwullunde sector, toward the right of you(jutting out from the orion arm) the other 2 sides are currently open to expansion.

glad to see you back Commonalitarianism.:cool:

oh this post is just the signup/list post for those interested in discussing or joining Galaxy 1.
ic isn't required in this particular post. I hope that anyone who signs up will mention Galaxy 1 to other fantasy/nft/ft friends so that we can get some more people here. Anyone who agree's to join up can start a galaxy 1 post at any time. If you do let me know and i will join in. all that i ask is that you place the Galaxy 1 designation in the header of the post.

sorry about the map. I didn't realize it shrunk. I thought that was the map you were going to use. When you do make an official map, feel free to place the Romanov Asteroid field anywhere you like. It really doesn't matter that much to me. I'm looking forward to getting this going.

oh, and Commonalitarianism, your welcome to post on my current thread if you want. (see above)
[NS]Schwullunde
22-08-2007, 03:25
thats kool. i should have been more specific. i haven't even began a full map as of yet. your area is now officially located at the point just above
TN-0460164-SR. as a quick locator thats the second line from the left,top of the map of schwullunde sector.just align the lines and your there. feel free to embelish upon the rough map i made for you. i mean its not an exact to scale map, and the astroids all apear to be roughly the same two sizes. if Commonalitarianism posts a map i will post a more complete up to date map. similer to the standard nasa compilation maps.
oh yeah nice pic of the imperial star destroyer, it fits in with the general feel of mine and Commonalitarianism's ships. if you want check out another post of minehttp://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=530177

ahhh thats right. i never got around to adding those two names you gave me:eek:. i called it SM-00002.4-SR. thanks for reminding me:D.(Romani Cartel. just an aside, Gnome is a Resort Planet/Traiding Outpost in schwullunde sector.)oops sorry bout that Commonalitarianism, i can be forgetful at times:p i had the names listed on the ingame version of the same map, i just forgot to transfer them i just fixed it.

22-08-2007, 20:20
We would like to put an Asteroid Legion training base near gnome, basically, a foreign legion type arrangement where different groups would send "soldiers", to deal with common threats. This would of course be on the other side of the planet away from the tourists in the harsh desert and in the asteroid fields.

Soldiers meaning the people they wanted to send far away in exile, or need to spend some time doing something other than prison, or just want some adventure, or need to do some cross training but you don't want them to be part of the regular military. Your classic I want to support your country by fighting in a foreign war-- French Foreign Legion, Spanish Legion, etc.

i can live with that. now on to other buiseness, as i said earlier I am working on a galactic map. now the main thing is thus, do i use a pic of the milky way, or another galaxy. so i am placing this up to others. as we already assume Galaxy1 is in another universe, i see no problem with terra being located in another galaxy in our universe. the two main choices are

1. milky way
2. large irregular galaxy ( looks a bit like a cloud)

the benefits of 2 are that there is alot more space, and we can name stars anything we want. though such names as alpha/proxima Centarii, sol, algol,etc are being transfered. i can go with any other galaxy but these 2 are the current ideas. i am easy either way, but i like #2 slightly better.so i am leaving it up to you two.:D

I was hoping to take a place on the map, although I'm not sure of the galaxy, I don't recognize any features. Incandescent Serenity located in a nebula on the Inner-rim of the Milky-Way galaxy anyway.

I'm new to FT, so I have an FT Intro Thread located Here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=536926). Any interested are welcome. Further-more a background for my people can be found in the Encyclopedia: Incandescent Serenity'. located in my signature.

thats kool and welcome to g1. you probibly wouldn't as this is a pic of an iregular galaxy. 010-LMC {large magellanic cloud}. In another post before this i mentioned that we exist in a seperate dimension. i proposed that in that dimension Terra and several other worlds could be here instaid of in the Milky way. though in this case they are just place names. you would probibly appear somewhere near the center of g1 as well. though thats up to you.
the only place this map counts is in a g1 post so you can appear here and there simultainiously. there is some crossover as i recognize incidents in NS as well as G1 as valid, as long as they don't interfear. other players may have different policies on this if they want, though i consider this view as valid unless someone challenges it. thats kinda what this post is for. errata and policies note i did not mention rules, thats because except for mod rules g1 doesn't have any hard and fast rules. we have policies and suggestions, this is so that all players can have a voice in how things run. i will listen to any suggestion made and will go with the majority will in such matters. I may have started this little setting,but i hardly consider myself the highest authority involved.

at any time remember that you may post a g1 post as long as you post a pointer here so that i can find it and join in. also if i don't catch a post asap don't fret i may be enguaged in other affairs.

suggested format for posts is [post name-genre-galaxy1-open/closed]

[NS]Schwullunde
01-09-2007, 22:56
ok i just re-edited the map so that i could add in Xiscapia, plus a couple of modifications. so the new map is located here
http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/6606/010lmcirregularawy9.jpg (http://imageshack.us)


it now lists npc nations as npc. an idea i would like to attribute to Xiscapia

here is some info on said NPC's
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Alphan Empire.
the Alphans are a militaristic race. They feel that anyone weaker then them should be conquered, and either enslaved or wiped from the universe completely. that said due to a treaty with the Terrans and Proximans they have remained withen their own borders.

Appearance: reptilian, greenish-grey
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Proximan Republic.
The Proximans are Isolationists. They feel that the rest of the universe is inferior to them in every way. They will usually attempt to force anyone entering their terratory to leave without harming them, but if it becomes necessary will use all possible force including destroying the intruders.

Appearance: humanoid,similer to cats but with defenate insectoid characteristics.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Algol Confederation.
The Algol are a race obsessed with knowledge. They roam the galaxy studying everything. their technolagy is simply unimagionable, if it can be done they know how to do it. The Algol are also one of the only races known to have mastered the Mental Arts. Because of this they rarely physicaly Speak, prefering instaid to communicate using Telepathy. Understanding the discomfort some races have with this though,they usually only use words in comunication instaid of the images and feelings that they use when communicating with other Algols.They are also the only race that can enter into the terratory of the Alphans and Proximans without being challanged.

Appearance: Similer to the Asgaard, except taller less thin. usually dressed in a tight fitting jumpsuit of some unknown bluish material.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terrans
Terrans are known for only one thing, anything to make a buck. If its being Traded they usually do the trading. its from the terrans that many nations decend. Terrans are Mostly Harmless, except that they seem to have a thing for fighting when they are around their own kind.
Appearance:Human, various races, various intelligance(well:D i don't know if its exactily intelligant)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
sorry for any mispellings. my spelling is horible

02-09-2007, 19:07
Nice. I suggest that whenever someone what's to invade a NPC territory either someone RPs that nation seperate from their own, because whoever was attacking would always win. Also I'm the Xiscapian Empire. Anyway, great map, I'm going to see if I can get anyone else to join.
[NS]Schwullunde
02-09-2007, 19:42
I corrected your name on the map,as well as gave mine its full name. you have a good idea there, wasn't real sure about how to run the npc nations, especially the Terrans. you will notice the positioning of the big three, that is due to my personal history. it explains why three big nations would fight over such a backwater little sector such as mine, as well as why they would create my sector as a block to the other two nations. I really have to finish my factbook and post it. it will have a basic history of the war. it also explains my references to my sector as a large "junkyard" filled with the disabled hulks of many nations warships.:D

he he do you mean that reather interesting blank spot just above The Xiscapian Empire, if so well no problem its not exactily claimed at the moment.

it was brought up to me that Imperial Isa might join and i immeadiately thought of Isa for that spot, but as Isa isn't here yet ohh well.

oh and its never to late to join galaxy 1 as we haven't even filled up one of the quadrents yet, and there is still three other quadrents to use.

I have posted an Ic thread, its in a previous post. so your welcome to join.

oh i already know about most of the other players, but whats your chosen genre. this is a fairly open genre world, i just wish a few more of the fantasy/nft players would join in too. spelljammer/steempunk stuff some cthulu
i do some of that myself :D anyway welcome to galaxy 1. just copy/edit the map and send it too me so i can repost it if you will.

oh and to reiterate a previous comment
feel free to post your own g1 threads, and link them on this thread so that the others can find them easier(especially me ;))

oh i just noticed there are two new members welcome to both of you.


hey ruthless slaughter what is your NS Nation, I need it so i can send you any thread posts that i put up. i also post them here, but sometimes direct communication is better. Its not necessary to have a nation on NS, but if you don't you will have to check here for any threads posted by me or other g1 members
Ruthless Slaughter
03-09-2007, 14:40
My forum name's the same as my nation. It makes more sense when you see the full title. As for territory...hmmm... could I get a chunk of the bottom left quadrant? The Dominion's a fallen empire that once had control over a good deal of another galaxy but as with all huge empires it became bloated and collapsed in a huge civil war. The largest remnant came here and colonized a large portion of space (would 2-3 star systems be alright?) to accommodate all of the civilians the military took with them.

03-09-2007, 18:30
Feel free to mark it on the map and Im me a copy. of course if you cannot i will add you in myself. that region is almost empty so take as much space as you need, just don't go overboard ;) considering the fact that i took several dozen, most of them uninhabitable i don't see why not.

also feel free to make a map like mine on page 1. you don't need one imeadiately but it would be a nice touch.

i may make a g1 Atlas sometime is why. oh and just an aside, i like the way both you and Xiscapia took my history of the wars and linked into them. when a few others show up i cannot wait to see how they fit it in. check out my factbook for a more detailed(though not in any way complete) history. Every time i go over it i add a bit more detail. like the Battle of Caliphus 1

reather clevor of me :p . And quite frankly judging by the few other gay nations, one of the more unique ones. oh just a bit of info the flag is based of of the Imperial German Flag pre 1935. though the colors are similer to another euro flag. gotta add in the crest which i use as a military patch and as a avatar on NsDraftroom http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/index.php?act=idx

i still have alot of work to do on that factbook :rolleyes: oh also the money is roman Aureas=the roman gold coin Nationalus=well its just a romanized version of national its value was based off of the us gold ounce value. another little clevor idea of mine to explain how I can have so much stuff with a much smaller economy. I just have lots of gold :D

the name was supposed to let folks know without being to blatent Schwule is german for gay lunde is a made up word for moon

sorry i took so long to reply. welcome Imperial Isa to Galaxy 1. Xiscapia is correct about that spot, when he mentioned you to me i thought of that spot imeadiately. In fact its been held especially for you. I figure that its the point where the void intersects with our space, so you can come and go just by making a right angle turn. as such your area is probibly larger then most of the other players. please feel free to join into the current g1 thread or start a g1 thread of our own. post it here and i will be along shortly. right now we are creating the history of g1 but for the basics read my factbook. it contains some of the current history. also in the other ic thread the players are adding some of their parts into that history.

general: i think i will put up a thread to act as a factbook for G1 soon. when i do, just add in your parts to the history. oh i just got the dominion's galaxy claim, i have to edit the two maps together i will post it next. if you want that position Imperial Isa and i will edit you in before i post the map. if you want a little more area then just the void spot let me know so i can add some realspace into your claim

well if you want to use it for that sure. instaid of making a new one why not just edit the thread title and add the galaxy 1 marker in. that would save time.
either way is good. i do like the passanger service idea, that could prove useful. Especialy if you plan on rp'ing things like murder on the orient express.
me I am working on the idea of banking though, sorta an idea to back nations monitary value with my gold, kinda like the use of the kugerrand(misspelled i am sure lol). It would make sense for me because i use gold as money already so i am stable.

i'll edit the title, and i'm still working on the passenger liner idea. my original idea was that we would assume that my ships are visiting worlds that sign up, and only ic rp them when we want to. this way, we can all mention various liners in our ic threads, such as ''the flagship approached the station, while a white stra passenger ships was moving away,'' etc. i have the details ready to go, but still working on the images. oh, and anyone who wants to use my other thread, go ahead and simply join in, you don't need my ic promission. read the into for more info.

Void Templer void in your discription just means uncharted, with Isa its a seperate dimension.

Imperial Isa don't want to meddle here but VT can enter into the non void systems marked on the map. These are part of the g1 dimension. he just cannot travel into the Actual Void at the core of your nation. That said I would be almost willing to bet that the Algol could.

general: the algol are designed as a means to stop the creation of unbeatable nations. As seen I only use them as a story device. The Algol Don't even give me Tech for general use. sometimes they will update a single small ship to bring it in line with other nations but never with military weapons.

well hmmm its a medium temperate world, 4th in system. 5 moons. active volcanic action. signs of previous inteligent life, possibly 2 or more species.
large yellow sun. large wreckage fields dot the system from previous intersteller battles.

further back in planets history signs show an older civilization. numerious temples to inhuman beings dot the landscape.

current activity on planet
a schwullunde research team is currently excavating a village. approximate age 1000 yrs old, artifacts indicate probible Xiscapian in origin. signs of similer villages withen 50 mi. extent of settlement is approx 150 mi area of central continant.

thats about all i can come up with in the way of details. i haven't exactily charted the sector in detail yet. for planetary location see schwullunde sector map (its the nearest star to the title legend bottom left corner).
i will leave the rest of the details to you xiscapia.

yep your in alveria. glad to have you aboard. your DDS Discovery thread is in fact a perfact fit because of the large amounts of unexplored space in g1. its up to you if you wanna create a seperate discovery thread for g1 or not. as i said there is some parity between events in NS and G1 anyway. there is a fair example in a Star Trek Voyager episode: the one where there is two voyagers in diferent realities traped.

[NS]Schwullunde
15-09-2007, 20:04
sure i suppose. some basic suggestions though. all such races should be NPC.
its ok though to incorperate one or two of them into your threads as story telling devices as long as they never share tech (if its more advanced).
such races should fit the general theme of G1 (including its humor aspect)
absolutely no Time Lords/Daleks please (though a mention of them in passing is fairly ok)
try to make their appearance slightly ridiculous. other then that go for it.

oh if you check you will see that i never incorperate tech from the Algol into my pc nation (or on a very small scale: outfiting one small ship with slightly improved shields)

lol nothing. though i suppose many would question the "god" part :D
In fact I already knew you tend to play fare because if you didn't when we met in another thread you would have made me glow green Rofl. In fact I generally have no problem with any known sci-fi rips, i use alot of stuff myself from various books and shows though not from "dr who" just because i cannot figure out a way to incorperate it.

some of my rips include
every ship i have: TTA books
Fire Pearls : gateway novels
transporters: SG1
Cloaking: SG1 & Star Trek
in my discription of terrans earlier i described them as "Mostly Harmless" a direct quote from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Alphans Look Suspiciously like Kzinti, act a bit like them too
Algol a mix of Greys,Asgaard, and a bit of the aliens from ID4
i use quite a bit of stuff from Cthulu
and i am sure that in the future you will probibly spot more rips from various exotic and sundry novels,movies,shows, and websites
if you can spot even one origional idea in anything i do please let me know

oh and just in case anyone thinks of my own people as an origional nope sorry
the idea comes from a Sci Fi novel Called Drylands End and another called Children of Man(not the movie BTW) though i edited the concept extensivly
even my military troops are a rip see The Stepsons from Thieves World, and The Sacred Band of Thebes

I usually try to stay outta scenes in which i don't fit. haven't forgotten about it though. just posted. in fact it appears i got my threads crossed a bit so i had to correct that. my team in what lies beneath is mostly a archio team. admitedly they are a bit more interested in digging up artifacts then in anything else, but they will make appearances when i can fit them in. i have been a bit out of it for the past week. mostly couldn't think of anything to post.
Xiscapia
20-09-2007, 21:34
Actually, no artifacts have been found. I'm saving that for later. At first we'll find swords, skeletons, bowls, and the like, but later...
So just limit your artifacts to that kind of thing.
[NS]Schwullunde
22-09-2007, 02:29
as you wish. i had never really considered anything else. I had assumed that there was a small schwullunde team already there before the thread began, otherwise the discovery of the "urn" cannot be explained easily. unless this is a seperate dig site on a seperate planet, in which case "bit o pie on the face" situation here.:D

if they were already there they would have only began basic 1st level-3rd level excavations which would limit any artifacts to the ones already mentioned. any structures would have been photographed, cataloged and probibly left for later exploration. the structure that blew up, we probibly cataloged it took foto's and left. in fact we may have a foto of the wall with the writing.

Something that ties in the death of this world's race, the orgins of the Xiscapians, and maybe some tech we have. There'll be traps, ancient warriors, death, danger, destruction, weapons, writings from a dead race, and much much more.

interesting system in fact it seems that the only diference between us is you use a platinum standered. i think the wiki is off though cause ain't platinum more expensive then gold?

anyway if i understand the conversion it would be

1 ISD = 25 Usd = 1/2 An which cannot possibly be correct

Interesting idea. do you have a location planned? If not I would like to offer the planet gnome. gnome was intended as a resort planet, but it has morphed into something more. Currently hosting the JDA Conferance. I have a large convention center there. Due to its more central location to the rest of the Nations it might be more convenient.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
also thinking of creating a G1 monitary Guide to take care of money conversion within the sphere of G1. current standards are
the Platinum standard
the Gold standard
the Silver standard
USD
and possibly more. the reason is to set down a standard conversion. I will be using the Precious Metal Calculator from Dendritics to calculate the rates with USD set as base. I figure most of us have a monitary system that is at least above the USD base. let me know if this interests anyone else or if its unnecessary

An idea where money is concerned. May we presume that, using Euros as a base, the each level of 'economy' in a nation gives a rise or fall of .25? For example. If Xiscapia's is "Thriving" and Avalas' is "Powerhouse", Avalas Currency is worth roughly .25 more on an even sum of each.
Xiscapia

We run a green powerhouse, so it could be interesting. I've found it is nearly impossible to go beyond powerhouse if you want to have a pristine environment. Most of our tech is very "clean tech." Raw materials and technology are traded for more than currency. It might be cool if there was some kind of standard like gold-- attached to the currency, like a rare element-- platinum standard, etc.

take a few days off and:Deveryone posts lol.
basing the Currency in G1 of of Euro's, while interesting isn't very usefull. mostly because economy in ft is fairly wonky. the origional purpose was just to clear up the conversion rates of the various G1 nations. As such I am probibly going to create a thread to set that system up. Currency should be based of off some actual precious metal like gold,silver,platinum, etc. The reason is i can calculate the price on the net and list a conversion rate.
This will be done by those who actually post setting up their currency and conversions will be done with this formula.
G1 Currency ↔ USD ↔ G1 currency
so lets assume i have 10 An converted to usd thats 6780.5, now take that and convert to another unit based here of off platinum means my 10 an would equal 5.42 PLT.
all i did was take 10 Multiply by the 24k price then divide by the platinum price or
(10 * 678.05)/1,251

oh and i use Usd because the euro's metric system confuses me

06-10-2007, 01:15
You could end up in another universe or a pocket universe if you tampered with a wormhole generator. I think wormholes don't have to come out in this particular reality. That is if you subscribe to the many worlds theory of quantum physics. It could make for some interesting roleplaying accidentally opening holes to "other places" could have some very interesting results.
[NS]Schwullunde
06-10-2007, 02:46
not only that but it would be theoretic possible to rip a hole in the fabric of the continuim and either destroy both universes or merge them. tampering with wormholes is a very bad idea.

Yeah, there are some very nasty (and potentially cool) possibilities when you start tampering with rips in space-time. If your ship isn't shredded from the shearing forces of course. I'd like to see what you come up with for other universes, or even finding a way to totally stop and hover there would be pretty cool.

08-10-2007, 14:42
The main question is how do you open wormholes at a distance. We have a wormhole device, but we cannot open the device at a distance, first we have to go to the destination then open a wormhole.

The wormhole is basically a device to transport large amounts of goods, ships, very quickly. Create an instant shipping corridor. They are also not of a huge size about the size of a single heavy destroyer maximum.

Being able to create an opening through some kind of quantum simultaneity energy manipulation at a distance would be well interesting.

This is the new ship of the line. I don't have many yet, about 10 of them have been built so far. They are a replacement for some of the armored asteroid ships.

Model: Augustus Heavy Destroyer
Type: Heavy Destroyer
Length: 1992.4 Meters
Weight: 66.8 Million Metric Tons
Crew: 1200
Troop Complement: 20,000 Power Armored Troops, 1,000 Light Space Assault Mecha
Fighters: 20 Needle Fast Attack Craft , 20 Invader Breaching Pods
Reactors: 4 Gravity Shell Proton-Proton Hydrogen Fusion Reactors, 2 Antideuterium Reactors
Duration: 4 Years
Missile Silos: 12 Large Missile Silos, 16 Small Missile Silos
2 Heavy Railed Proton Beam Cannons
10 Heavy Ion Cannon Gun Turrets
14 Gravitic Impeller Gun Turrets
16 Rapid Fire Centrifuged Coil Gun Turrets
10 Faceted High Intensity Graser Ports
Defense: 300 mm of programmable carbon matrix, 1 meter of polarized bioceramic, 2 meters of superchitin, 6 meters of tungsten steel alloy.
Shields: Graviphotonic Repulsor Shielding Grid, Cold Plasma Shield
ECM: The ship contains arrays designed to jam enemy communications as well as scanners and enemy targeting systems.
Transporter: 4x Short distance Einstein Rosen Bridge wormhole transporter.
Engines: Impulse: Graviphotonic Impeller Drive, Transwarp Drive (combines features of Heim Theory and Alcubierre Warp Drive Theory).



The new ship of the line incorporates the latest in gravitic technologies. Able to generate artificial gravity, it incorporates an advanced drive system. In addition, with further research into the principles of Heim Theory, several new technologies were developed.
Impeller Cannon:
The impeller cannon is not a fast firing weapon. It uses a repulsor beam to push a shell at a target at very high speeds.
Centrifuge Coil Gun

A new form of coilgun improving on the standard coil gun was developed. It is a centrifuge gun which uses forcefields to spin balls up to high speeds. The balls are then released using forcefield gating into a coil gun barrel where they are further accelerated. The balls are released in clusters closed grouped together into the barrel of 6-10 balls. The combined effect leads to very high speeds when leaving the barrel.

Railed Proton Beam Cannon (Heavy Weapon)

This is a particle beam fired from a railgun. The energy in the particulate matter is pumped as it leaves the barrel with radiation to increase the amount of energy in the beam. It is a long range heavy weapon.

Heavy Ion Cannon Turrets

After trade with Xiscapia, new weapons systems were added, ion cannons capable of piercing shields, and damaging internal electrical systems. These are capable of disabling enemy ships.

High Intensity Graser Ports:
This is a continuous cutting beam weapon designed to lock onto a ship and burn through it.

Missiles:

Recent research into missile tube technology also created a repulsor pusher plate designed to accelerate missiles as they are launched, the missile is thrown out of the tube and then it activates its engines,. Two new missiles have been developed, a gravity wave missile which releases a pulse of antigravtoiphotons multiplying gravity over a wide area for a brief period, and an antimatter warhead to supplement existing multicyclic fusion warheads.
The ship is also capable of dumping stand off missiles from its tubes as well as cloaked mines.

Armor:

The outer armor is based on the idea of programmable carbon matrix which is self healing. It is an early form of Wellstone.

On the planet Muse, several species of giant armored insect were discovered. After numerous encounters with the local wildlife, buggers, and worms the asteroid legions had to evacuate Muse, they managed to bring back samples of the chitin and bioceramics. This has been incorporated into a new bioarmor design. The new armor incorporates both chitin and bioceramics allowing for a combination of flexibility and hardness not previously available. The outer bioceramic layer is polarized to increase the density of the armor.

Under the layer of superchitin is a special heat resistant alloy designed to be a heat sink and a strong internal frame for the ship.
Shields:
With diagrams of the Alcubierre warp bubble, it was possible to design a repulsive gravity shield capable of stopping missiles, torpedos and kinetic rounds. It is not particularly effective against beam weapons.

Underneath the repulsor shield is a cold plasma shield, an energy shield that functions as a heat sink to counter beam weapons and particle beam weapons.

Internal Structural Reinforcement:
The ship is designed on the basis of modular compartmentalization, there is a central beam from which the ship is divided into four spokes. Each section of the ship is further reinforced with internal structural integrity fields. Sections of the ship can be exposed to space and badly damaged and the ship can still continue functioning.
ECM:
Electronic counter measures. The ship has a variety of detection suits, heat, variable frequency scanners, mass scanners, motion scanners, electromagnetic scanners, subspace signal detectors. It includes a full suite of jamming equipment against missiles, and communications equipment in the vicinity of the ship.

Extended Duration:

The ship incorporates recycling technologies, regenerative recycling life support systems, onboard dense hydroponics and aquaponics, and systems for reclaiming potable water.

Reactors

Two new cryogenically cooled anti-deuterium reactors have been copied from the design of the Huntaer reactor used to power purchased Alcubierre Warp drives.

The four fusion reactors have been updated with a new form of gravitic shielding. This allows for extreme heats and energy manipulation allowing for pure proton proton hydrogen fusion.


Transporter: Schwullunde has installed a new transporter system, it uses a short distance Einstein Rosen Bridge or wormhole to move people between location. Essentially a person travels a very short distance, about a foot or two to get to their destination. It appears as a brief flash of light. People needed to be shielded to use the transporter.

Transwarp Drive:

After receiving several working warp drives, equipment to manufacture warp drives, and theoretical papers from Kormanthor and Huntaer, a new type of drive was developed combining characteristics of the Heim hyperspace drive and the Alcubierre warp drive. This allows accelerated travel through hyperspace. It is the equivalent of a slipspace drive.


Production:

The initial design of this ship has survived engagements on Muse and against outer space pirates. There are not a huge amount of this type of ship in production yet. New production yards are planned. Further modifications have occurred with trade with Xiscapia and other space powers.

Technology:

After developing the Heim Drive, gravitic technology was developed. These are byproducts of the development of the Heim Drive. Heim theory proposes the presence of gravitophotons and antigravitophotons which interact with normal matter. Research into Heim theory allowed the development of artificial gravity fields which were miniaturized over decades of research. The Alcubierre Warp drive also incorporates gravitophotons as part of its design

Needle Attack Craft:
Length: 20 Meters
Armor: Shadowskin—combination of optical camouflage and metamaterials, this when activated is very hard to pick up on sensors. 6 centimeters of programmable carbon matrix (Wellstone), over 6 centimeters of bioceramic, over 6 centimeters of superchitin.
Shields: ECM—Jamming field
Power: Anti-deuterium power plant.
Sublight: Antimatter thrusters. This is a very fast ship. It relies on a combination of extreme maneuverability, speed, and camouflage to get to its targets.
Weapons: 2 centrifuged coilguns edges, 1 impeller gun (hellbore shells)-centrally aligned, 1 particle beam cannon. 6 Hardpoints for missiles, or bombs.
This is a fast attack craft built as a stealth fighter.

Shield Piercing Breaching Pod:
Length: 30 Meters
Room: 1 Pilot 20 Passengers
Shielding: 6 centimeters of programmable carbon matrix. Ion pulse generator to disrupt shields as it gets close to them.
Weapons: 2 Fusion Arc cutting beams, 6 grappling claws, 4 cutting lasers, 2 shaped charge launchers.
This is a boarding pod designed to approach ships or fixed installations closeup and take them.
The outer shell is capable of generating a powerful charged particle pulse allowing it to bypass shields sometimes.

Commonalitarianism: I like your new ship design, a few things about it though.
the transporter system: I like your explination of the workings of the design. I guess my design wasn't too far fetched based on your explanation. anyway I will keep your caveat about the shielding and just say that shielding is incorperated within the mechanics. good job :).
The Transwarp: i asked about that idea in another g1 thread but never got around to going anywhere with it. again looks like i wasn't blowing hot air.:p

If you are going to be disbanding the astroid ships would you consider trading them for more transport systems and possibly a mining agreement to allow you to collect Oort cloud material within my actual sector, not just from the Califas Corridor. still seems like a fairly good design to incorperate into my sector defences.

Hi, Schwullunde,
We aren't disbanding them so much as using them as phasing them out. We still have to come up with a whole new set of replacement ships and ship yards, things like tenders, ECM ships, hospital ships are still being designed. They are much cheaper to build than the new ships. The new ships are more of a face to the world kind of thing until we build enough of them. The main command ship, The Iron Mountain is still a giant asteroid ship. We need to build a true dreadnaught to replace it.
They are designed for sector defense and capturing enemy ships mainly. We could trade some of them for mining rights so we could bring in materials to the new shipyards we are building.

Here by the way is the older asteroid ship description:

Asteroid Ships:

At the beginning of the Commonalitarianism the first naval ships were made out of hollowed out nickel iron asteroids. They were heavily armored and had big engines to move a very large ship. Weapons were designed to deliver the maximum amount of damage with only a few weapons. Each asteroid ship was designed to carry a specific kind of weapon, beam weapon platform, missile and kinetic platform, ECM and communications platform, hospital ship, troop and mecha carrier, repair and salvage ship, fighter wing carrier, and command ship. As time advanced armor improved, and repulsor shielding was introduced. More ships were built and formed into carrier groups. As wars were fought, the groups claimed bounties adding more armor to the ships as well as new weapons. The ships were simple, built for brute force. This is the way it stands today. The Citizens Senate has created a destroyer group to parade in front of the world, as well as some specialty spy ships to hide from the world, but the bulk of the navy is heavy asteroid ships. This will change as they are phased out.
