NC I read it and do not like the idea of having some virus able to affect nearly any biotic life form. As the genes of this race have a number of different chemicals in it and have a different type of protein combinations.

Though to state war is a different story and if you want to fight bring it on.:p

I'd like to take the station, if that's alright with everybody. It would be a foothold surveying station for the province of Neo-Roma, on a world marked for possible colonization. There'll be a healthy military presence for a station of that size, since Neo-Romans are quite militaristic, but they're not unfriendly and won't be the ones to shoot first, if shooting ends up happening. :rolleyes:

Since Future-Rome is planning on doing something I have no idea about, no TG I checked, so feel free to. Though to clarify what type of entrance are you planning to make? Like in terms of just making your first or being a part of the thread, for whatever length of time the thread could still milked for your personal enjoyment.

OOC: ok, thanks! just to let you know, my 'nation' is two spaceships that can fit 200,000 people each. They are called Evac-Ships, and we have been roaming space for 192 years after an alien race attacked earth. The ship has supplies for approx. 200 years. (or is all this too unbelievable?)

In OOC threads there is no need for OOC to go in front of everything young one.

By the by, two hundred years is pluasible provided that they do their best to save their resources and to gather what goods they need to survive, eg can be anything to metals, biochemicals for food, fuel, etc.

OOC: ok, just don't know how my people can fit into your RP...Two people, one common goal. To find a world for their respective civilizations to rebuild upon.

Well, I believe your folks sent out a radio message, so our station would pick it up, go "WTF are they sayin'?" due to language barriers, and send out a token diplomatic message in a multitude of languages and mathematical encryptions while we run your transmission through our computers to try and get some handle on what you're saying. Chances are your people will be able to make sense of one or more of the various translations of our message, and then we work from there establishing some common ground, like what you guys are doing in newly-claimed Republican space.

I should mention that I'm a member nation of The Republic, so Neo-Roma doesn't function as its own sovereign nation. The Republic is a collective of nations that functions as a single whole: each "nation" is a province of the Republic under the authority of the Republican Senate, our central ruling body. So my people will have the authority to handle the immediate situation in the RP, acting under the authority of the Neo-Roman Provincial government, but won't be able to negotiate any official treaties or lasting relationships. If the RP goes that way, and I encourage you guys to do so, then we'll negotiate elsewhere with official representatives of the Senate.

So my people are Neo-Roman by ethnicity, but Republican by nationality. Just explaining it for you guys in the event that I start using them interchangeably.

Hope that all makes sense. XD

Standard FT rp custom is that you assume the message is translated by the people. Also, to note I know fully well what the Republic is and I was around when the Republic was still young, I was around during its glory days, and I bore witness to some of your great defeats at the hands of the GE, also of how you lost the Core Worlds to the Dark side.:p

Alrighty, just making sure. :) And I still like at least acknowledging the language barrier, just as a nod to realism. It won't be a significant obstacle at all in the RP.

This seems interesting, I recently joined the FT world, and you can view my factbook in my signature if you want more information on my empire.

I might make a psot.

I'll hop in, if none of you mind, i'm better at RPing future than MT, because i get more creative freedom. I'll be a Captain of a ship that will jump into the system as soon as this RP gets unfuzzed, provided that it's ok for you folks.
