DEATH 117
Dear Cousin,
we thank you for welcoming us so warmly. Alas we must now depart to prepare the movement of our protegees towards this region.
In three days we will have gathered enough information to continue interstellar negotiations with King Krulle of the Burvixese and with our new neighbours, especially with the young nation of The Vux, which seem to be in need of assistance to not get further involved in diplomatic affairs.
We offer our help to everyone, please leave a message here or apply directly via telegram.
Our office will be open for silicitors from Monday to Friday, app. 9 to 17 CET (+1 GMT). Any solicitor will be telegraphed or otherwise informed about the terms of assistance.
Lord 002
<ooc> Have a pleasant weekend everybody! </ooc>
Message relayed from our protegees, the Burvixese:
-------------------------------
Dear neighbors,
we greet you all a formal welcome.
We just wanted to tell you all, that we as last race have abandoned the Region of Alpha Librae and moved here.
We apologize for our late arrival here, but due to our still instable political situation, we had a lot of preparations to make.
But finally we have arrived.
So call us whenever you are in need of a cup of sugar.
Krulle
King by Gods' Grace
GOOD MORNING TO ALL!
DEATH 101
Dear Neighbours,
like you likewise know, the kind Ur-Quan is devided into 2 races. At least as far as we ourself know.
Since we do not remember what happened to us in the timespan of 20,000 years and app. 25,000 years before now, there could be more Ur-Quan groups.
In the named timespan we were enslaved and psychically subjected into being mindless slaves. The fight for our freedom was hard and painful, please do not ask questions about our slaverevolt.
After they defeated our former masters, our ancestors made a heavy decission: the 2 known Ur-Quan races decided that never again any sentient being may be allowed to harm an Ur-Quan. They chose their paths wich the Ur-Quan would follow from now on: one race, you know them as Kzer-Za or Ur-Quan Kzer-Za, chose to enslave every sentient race and if needed enlist their aid against any danger wich the Ur-Quan cannot defeat by themself. The Kohr-Ah, or Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah chose to eliminate any sentient being.
We, the nomads, were not applied in this slaverevolt. Due to a mistake of one of our enslavers, we got sent into some far-away regions of space in a capsule, which self-destructed after we landed on a planet.
More than 80% of our group died to our fierce territorial instincts.
It took us another 2.500 years to evolve and uplift us again into the stars. During this time, we learned that owning territoy is not the only way to survive. We evolved a little bit towards cooperation. Granted, sometimes we are more aggresive than we wish to be.
During our voyage through the stars after our re-discovery of Hyperspacetravel, we found bits of information here and there about our own ancient history. Since then we were searching for other Ur-Quans. We then also named us after our brothers, Kzer-Za, to make clear that we are of the same origin.
Not a long time ago, around 30 of your years, the Kzer-Za arrived in this region of space and enslaved most races and fought a hard war against the free races. The Kzer-Za won that war, but had not time to take care of everything, since the Kohr-Ah arrived in this region of space.
A ritual fight had to begin wich would show who would posses the Sa-Matra until the next meeting.
During this time we finaly catched up and met our brothers.
We tried to explain them the error of their ways, but we did not succeed. When we told the KzerZa about what we did, when we followed their trace, we were forbidden to return to their race.
I will explain:
Now we Kzer-Za still wish to protect the Ur-Quan kind from any danger. We make our own decissions and do what our council, the round table of double-zero Lords, or our primat, Lord 001, thinks is best for us. Since we are free and wish to be so, we will not join the UN, since their decissions are mandatory and not voluntary.
We do still think knowing about each sentient kind in space is best to protect us from the horror our ancestors had gone through. Therefor we try to contact all races and try to convince them giving their safety into our hands. Despite from not having to build your own army to protect yourselves, you also get intelligence reports of what's happening around in this dangerous galaxy. And since our technology is better than most technology of those we protect, we are able to detect earlier and defeat dangers before they become a threat to you. All we ask is a 5 percentpoints increase upon the income-tax your people pay transferred to us, and your government is not allowed to build more than a certain number of spaceships to defend yourself.
To finance our trip following the KzerZa, we freed a lot of enslaved races by cracking the energy shield and making them sign our treaties.
This will never be forgiven by our KzerZa brothers. In their eyes we are traitors.
Whenever you have questions about our contracts, please do not hesitate to ask.
Lord 999

Actually, my Primat (wife) took over the Kzer-Za.
She's playing from work, and at home I forgot to take care that she's been logged out of the forum. I even used another browser, but apparantly, she's been using it as well last time.
She still needs some introduction into SC, but she got quite fast around with the Ur-Quan philosophy.

I like my nations initial description, just what I intended! :twisted:
except that part of "which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation", because crime always leads to more furnaced slaves.

We welcome all neighbours and hope for a coexistance with mutual benefits.
Greetings. We seek assistance in modernizing our manufacturing base. We have taken the first steps into space. We are interested in improved spaceflight and hyperspace technology. We can offer manufactured goods and the fruits of our rich cultural heritage in exchange for scientific and engineering data.
Dear People of Smok,
we will gladly give you our spacefaring technology in exchange for some of the goods you have mentioned. But we additionally ask you to never build a starfaring army (but you are allowed to build a trade fleet) .
To receive our technology, you must sign our treaties for protected people, which means that you will give us some of your sovereignty, in exchange we offer you protection and the news we gather in this universe.
Please Ask Lord 250 for more information, since he is the Officer for Protected People.
Lord 008
Foreign Affairs
Your offer is unacceptable, Kzer-Za. Our people will never bow to you as slaves. Certain members of our society wish to form a space navy, and have petitioned me as head of state to negotiate for technology in order to make this a reality. It is precisely to defend ourselves from the likes of you that we need a space navy.
Dear rogue nation of Smok,
Since you are not familiar with our standard trading procedures, Smok, allow me to explain.
We will sell you fuel, ancient artifacts, even our own Mauler starships!
All that we ask in return is that you assign some of your crew to serve here at our trade world
on a permanent basis.
Our inventory presently includes
The Rosy Sphere! An ancient Precursor artifact of unrivaled beauty and mystery. Yours for the amazing bargain of only 100 crew.
The Glowing Rod! What unearthly powers will you gain when you hold this coruscating staff high above your head and scream, `Kyeee! Lykeee-lieee!'
And it can be yours for only 100 crew.
The Trident of Wimbli! Not just one, but fully THREE mystic prongs give this artifact its awesome capabilities. Are you strong enough to master its power? Or will it master you?
Cost? 100 crew.
As always, we also have an unlimited supply of exceptionally high-performance starship fuel at a cost of ten crew for ten units of fuel as well as a freshly assembled Mauler starship which we will trade for 100 of your crew.

(OOC: Ouch! OK. Sorry.)
Dear DarkSith,
obviously, you refuse to trade with us because you are not willing to assign us some of your crew.
This a great loss for us both <ooc>:cry:</ooc>, but we will not make an exception in your case. <ooc>:evil:</ooc>
However, please try to be receptive to what I am about to say.
We have taken the liberty of entering your ships's computer system to investigate the agreement signed by the Earthling volunteers who serve aboard your vessel. As we expected, we found that they have promised to obey you, DarkSith, under every circumstance no exceptions. <ooc>:twisted:</ooc> You are fully within your rights to deal with us in our required manner.
Please contact us, whenever you find that you have problems being overpopulated. <ooc>:wink:</ooc>
<ooc>Sorry, i just had to play with all these emoticons. I'm off for the weekend. CYaAll on monday!</ooc>
Dear Druugie,
I'm afraid that slavery is totally abhorrent to our people. It has been an uphill and bloody battle eliminating it from our own planet. We shall not revert to that barbarity.
I see that you use inefficient matter-converters for power generation. These are quite unreliable. Perhaps we could work out a deal wherein we trade some of our lovely fusion reactors for engineering specifications for your hyperspace engines. This would enable us to explore the galaxy at large and become more valuable trading partners. Who knows? Maybe we'll find some of those egg-sac thingees that you love so much.
-Secretary of State Chomsky
Starbase Commanders
15-11-2003, 10:55
Hmmm Mauler Starships eh?
Perhaps a few of those would be nice, but please don't tell the rest of the ex-league....
I have 500 crew "volunteering" and standing by....
Commander Decker
Dear Commander of the Starbase Commanders,
all our deals are only a concern to you and the Druuge you have been dealing with. All parts of the agreement are strictly confidential. A small fleet of fabric-new, fully crewed Maulers is on the way towards your region to make the deal perfect. We ven bring you some radioactives to fuel your starbase since your starbase needs that more than hyperspace fuel.
It takes app. 2 days for them to arrive.
Please be welcomed for further deals.
The Crimson Corporation
Dear Secretary of State Chomsky,
we are not in need of fusion reactors. Our Maulers are near perfect as they are. And due to recessions which accompany every war, we are in the current critical situation not in need of having better dynamos, since we have enough willing crewmembers aboard our starship vessels to maintain the critical systems.
We will gladly sell our Maulers to you, you can always try to reverse-engineer the design, which is fully within your rights to do, after you have purchased at least one of our Maulers.
Please note, that we always advice you to buy several, in case your scientists have problems re-engineering the critical parts.
The Crimson Corporation
Druuge,
We are eager to join the rest of the starfaring races, and so we will call for volunteers for your, er, cultural exchange. What do you require for one Mauler starship?
-Secretary of State Chomsky
Starbase Commanders
17-11-2003, 20:36
Thank you for the Maulers Drugge Emissary!
Our crew are standing by for our...er...cultural exchange...
Commander Decker
Crimson Corporation,
One hundred Smok citizens stand ready to receive your shuttlecraft at the Aleksander interplanetary spaceport. This brave group of terminally ill patients, starry-eyed Trekkies, anthropologists determined to go into xenology, and grandparents who just can't ever seem to get warm enough are prepared for their journey to the stars, satisfied that they will benefit their nation be making interstellar flight possible.
-Secretary of State Chomsky
Our fleet of 10 Maulers will arrive today at the Solar System.
5 of them are for the Starbase Commanders, 1 is for the rogue nation of Smok.
The others are escorting our freigthers, which can house the cultural exchangees comfortably on their way home towards the home of the Crimson Corporation, where they will be assigned towards their new jobs.
As Bargain we bring the Starbase Commanders 50 kton of radioactives to fuel their reactors, and 10 kton of medicines for the Nation of Smok, so that the new Druuge-citizens have all they need on their trip through the stars.
Within short time, we will open a sales branch in the outer regions of Soll, to be able to provide you with a steady supply of our Mauler Starships.
The Crimson Corporation
Attention interloper - heed this recorded message!
This drone-vessel speaks with the voice and authority of the Ur-Quan.
You are trespassing within Ur-Quan space.
This world, Earth, may not be approached for any reason.
Nor will hostilities against our orbital platform be tolerated.
In addition, your ship does not respond to standard Hierarchy identification transmissions and is therefore deemed to be independent.
This is not permissible -- only subservience shall be tolerated.
This drone now leaves to inform the Ur-Quan of your transgressions.
You are commanded to remain here and await the arrival of the Ur-Quan.
Disobedience will be punished.
Dear Starbase-commanders and dear Secretary of State Chomsky,
As you have noticed that upon entering your starsystem a drone-vessel has broadcasted a message.
We are ready to defend our own safety, but we cannot defend your safety.
In addition, since we have arrived at your space, we demand that you are resbonsible for the safety of our trading fleet. Can you assure us a safe passage and a safe trading point?
If not, we will return without finishing this deal.
The Crimson Corporation
We do not wish to interfere in your politics, we are merely traders.
Druuge Fleet,
I fear that without a space fleet, Smok can only defend you within our airspace, that is, the area 100 miles over our island. I suggest that you transact our business quickly before Hierarchy forces reach this system.
Secretary of Defense Patton
That is enough for us. Our lander will reach Aleksander Interplanetary Spaceport within the next minutes. Since our Maulers are unable to land on surfaces with an atmosphere, we will transport your captain to your Mauler. What you do with it afterwards is only your concern. We suggest hiding it, because we do not have standard hierarchy indentification, whatever that means.
We hope for further cultural exchangees.
You can always reach us via hyperwave for more bargains. Listen to our catalogue of genuine artifacts, some are even precursor made!
The Crimson Corporation
PS: We whish you good luck with your reverse-engineering! :twisted:
"Thank you, friend Druuge."
An expert team of engineers examines the ship in every detail, determines the functioning of each system, and returns to the surface with the data. The Druuge ship remains in orbit, with its weapon-systems deactivated and sealed. No point in antagonizing the Ur-Quan at this juncture. Later, on the surface, the automobile sector retools its factories to produce Earthling Cruisers... :twisted:
While I am sure, Secretary of Defense Patton, that you would never make this foolish mistake, I still feel I should warn you about one of our laws, specifically Druuge Statute 3429 - subsection A86, Definition of Starship Derelicts.
Simply put, Patton, this statute recognizes that the universe is an inherently hostile place and any ship which is unable to defend itself incites violence usually because someone will try to take the unarmed ship by force.
Therefore any unarmed vessel in space is defined as a derelict and is available for salvage by anyone who finds it.
Therefor we will claim your mauler as ours the moment you seal the deactivated projectile launcher.
Druuge,
Sure, come back and claim your "salvage rights." Maybe you'll get your ship before the Ur-Quan arrive... 8)
-Secretary of Defense Patton
Argh!
Aboard this ship there's not even a single crew to enslave! :(
And with no hyperspace drives (we guess you must have demontaged them to transport them down to the surface), there's no chance for us to get this mauler home to the Persei constellation.!
Ah, the time I#ve lost! How can I declare this my spuse, my boss?
Now I shall surely attend the furnace! :x
At least we can still make that deal with the Starbase Commanders.
Here are your 5 maulers still awaiting your command.
Kiirpi
Captain in the Crimson Corporation
We, the Technocracy of The Androsynthetic, wish to announce our return from Orz space. Our new nation is currently a bit unorganized, and it seems that corruption is rampant, but we intend to rectify these issues as soon as possible.
Expect a new technological powerhouse to emerge as we iron-out our wrinkles.
We are currently not interested in cultural exchanges, preferring instead to focus on our infrastructure. After our infrastructure has been re-established, we intend to pursue productive relations with the other species in this quadrant, with our ultimate aim being the re-population the Vulpeculae systems.
We do hope the remnants of our allegiance to the Ur-Quan are still considered to be intact, due to their assistance when it came to helping our fledgling species establish in the Vulpeculae systems initially following our escape from our former human slave masters. However, we respectfully decline their offer of "protection for a price", feeling it to be more a form of inhibiting our progress than supporting it.

We are the Lost Chenjesu, a small organization of the Chenjesu peoples whom decided not to undergo "The Process", left to carry on our people if "The Process" were to prove catastrophic.
Seperated from the rest of the Chenjesu people upon the completion of "The Process", and seeing that "The Process" was indeed non-fatal, we find ourselves left to define a new purpose.
We wish to declare that we are a Philisocracy, our goal being to seek enlightenment and complete social harmony -- much the same as the Chenjesu's purpose before undergoing "The Process".
We are entirely non-aggressive, and have no starfaring ships to speak of at this time. We do, however, have an extensive system-wide defensive network to deter would-be aggressors.
We look forward to the productive exchange of cultural and philisophical understandings with our fellow sentient species, and welcome all broadcasts and visitors who come in peace to our territories.
Androsynthetics, I apologize on the behalf of the Earthling race for what we have done to your people. It is wrong to enslave, and we beg for your forgiveness.
Lost Chenjesu, we'd love to come and visit, but right now we're trying to build up our navy to repulse the inevitable Ur-Quan invasion. Perhaps another time?
-Secretary of State Chomsky
Dear Androsynthetic and Lost Chenjesu,
your news are disturbing to us, since we are not able to follow every event in this galaxy.
What do you mean with "return from Orz space" and "the Process"? Please elaborate your explanation so that we can attend these matters as soon as the war against our siblings Ur-Quan KohrAh gives us a break.
And why are you able to communicate with us, Chenjesus? How did you escape the slave shield? Or are you rogues?
This is a severe violation of the slave laws. If you return to your home, destroy your vessels IMMEDIATLY upon arrival and wait for us to correct this error, we will not punish you.
And do not interfere in our war against the KohrAh, we are not allowed to loose!
Lost Chenjesu
25-11-2003, 02:25
While the Mmrnmhrm and Chenjesu were mutually enslaved in the Procyon system, the two seperate races underwent a hybridization to become one -- known as "The Process". This hybridization was prematurely interrupted by the Earthling captain in the Precursor service vessel in order to bring the power of the completed Chmmr to bear upon the Sa-Matra.
During the time the two species were enslaved upon the planet, we Chenjesu were able to counteract the slave shield technology. We found it prudent to colonize another system should the hybridization process fail.
We would like to bring to light that, as of the destruction of the Sa-Matra and liberation of the system, there are no more enslaved races. The "slave laws" that you insist we are in violation of no longer exist. Unlike yourselves, we are entirely able to keep up to date with current events due to the fact that each individual member of our species is able to transmit and receive hyperwave broadcasts naturally.
(OOC: Read your message to Krulle on the first page of this thread)
There are 2 Kzer-Za/KzerZa here. We Kzer-Za are a branch of Ur-Quan living a little bit different, we try to sell "protection insurances". In these treaties we demand that you stop building ships, in exchange we are responsible for your safety. Thus we eliminate each thread to ourselfes.
And i had to revise my position a little bit after i read the
World Factbook Entry: Star Control is a vast region of space approximately a thousand parsecs in diameter containing hundreds of star systems, and many galactic wonders including the ancient Rainbow Worlds left by the precursors. This region is home to dozens of sentient species and is currently the location of the Doctrinal War between thr Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah and the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za. Our regional thread is http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2033308#2033308
But since international treaties do not affect the game all that much, it does not really matter at what position we are playing, it just adds to the fun.
I even outlawed Cars on board the main gangways of my Dreadnaugths. And bycicles are not needed anyway. Difficult to cycle with all these legs and that big head!

Sorry, so i made a fault.
I could not see which Nations already existed when i came here, i just founded Kzer-Za and Burvixese to begin with.
Later (some days) i learned of Star Control as Region and moved with all my races here, before i was in Beta Librae, were there was only one Kzer-Za.
And we can change the time this is playing, especially because during the Slave-Rebellion we only have limited choice of who and how to play.
I propose we change the WorldFactBook towards "some months after the destruction of the Sa-Matra and is just reorganizing". Actually, i feel this already happened.
And since interaction does not matter much, i do not really care at which time we are playing, the discussion and talks just add to the fun.

Eh, why bother? This is the thread listed in the region description.

Dear Secretary Of State Chomsky,
Dwe Have Arrived In Thraddashia Space And Have Begun Our Festivities Of Consumption. Part Of This Holy Celebration Is One Of Our Favourite Games: "Throw The Fat Jubbie Into The Pit!"
So Dwe Not Only Do What Our Deific Duo Demands From Us, But Also We Do As You Demand! Please Be Welcomed For Further Advices As These.
Dwe Snicker With Amusement.

The Crimson Corporation of Druuge:
Dear (currently) 2 Time Flag Theft Victims of Eggerhexe,
regarding the fast acclimatisation and the excellent work of the Eggerhexes cultural exchangees aboard our starships, we are happy that we were able to find a trade to which we both could agree.
Gladly we would like to offer you more, especially since your people are seemingly perfect for the works around the furnace. Badly enough, there is no other room on board our vessels large enough to house your people. Surprinsingly for us, the rather warm temperatures seem to befit your people very well. Your people are the first of our cultural exchangees which did not die of dehydration whilst working around the furnace. Your people rather seem to grow faster than before. The starship of Captain Noortina bursted due to the inner pressure of the Eggerhexe-Mycon who grew too big for the ship. When we collected the debris, we found the corpse of the Mycon. Before we could bring him completly aboard, we had to cut him in pieces. To pay for the costs we had while collecting the rest of your exchangee, and to reduce the amount of storage needed to be able to send him back, we decided to turn the corpse into ashes, as it is usual for Druuge funerals. So we threw parts of the deep-space frozen parts of him into the furnace. When we wanted to collect his ashes which we wanted to return to his family, we found a smaller copy of him enjoying the warmth of the furnace.
By now, he feels rather well and we are prepared to return 4 smaller copies of him. The other 273 copies decided to remain in the different furnaces aboard our several starships. We will closely observe and study the extraordinary biology of your species, since we are always in need of man-power with special abilities to do the different hard works within the Druuge society.
We would gladly offer you other tradegoods.
From what we learned of our pupils, we gathered that you do have a special ceremony, which includes the insertion of a "Mycon Deep Child" below the crust of a planet.
We learned that you losed large parts of your fleets during several occasions during the ceremony, because of tactical disadvantages of your current technology.
Maybe you have learned of our high-speed cannons with their high accuracy already. Maybe we can work together to adopt one of our Maulers for your needs, for a certain price, of course.
Your advantage:
+ no need to get as close to a "birthing" planet as before
+ this avoids being ambushed, last known occasion includes an ambush by the Syreen
+ You remain just outside of the system and fire your "Deep Child" from there to the desired planet, using our high-precission technology, at the same time using the recoil to return to your own systems and thus protecting the birthing fleet.
Please be welcomed for further negotiations.

I EXAMINE THE TROPHIES IN MY BONE PIT AND RECOLLECT EACH SPECIES WHICH I HAVE PERSONALLY HUNTED TO EXTINCTION. OUR COUSINS HAVE MADE THIS REGIONS POLICY ON EXTERMINATION CLEAR. HOWEVER, ANY SPECIES WHICH WE OBSERVE TRANSGRESSING WITH UR-QUAN MANDATE WILL BE PUNISHED...PERMANENTLY

The Nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
Dear neighbours,
to save these broadcasts for further generations, so they can understand what has driven us, our librarian, Lord 241 has recently started the recording of the HyperWave broadcasts and has published them into the regional discussion board. See the Worldfact Book Entry on top of this page for the location.
Please be welcomed to continue your discussions over there, that would ease the life of our librarian a lot.
Lord 241
Neighbors,
The Kohr-Ah have returned. We all face imminant destruction from this menace. In the hope of aquiring advanced technology to aid in protecting us, the Great Nation of Smok has dispatched several diplomatic missions to other regions. I hope that they can find the answers that we seek. If anyone knows of the universal coordinates of an advanced alien race who might help us, please telegram me and give me the pertinant details.
-Secretary of State Chomsky
Another note by the Kzer-Za librarian,
read and enjoy,
Lord 241
----------------------------------------
The Elder Mycon of Eggerhexe:
Science engineer Albeert:
We are sorry to hear about your loss of ship, in return we can offer you some information to prevent this in the future. Before Mycon reach a certain size, we can be "pruned" without the clippings reproducing. Placing a Mycon in or near the furnace and pruning him can give you a nearly inexhaustible source of work. And yes, we may be interested in your "high impact seeding method" in future colonization efforts. We will keep you informed.

Besides the fact that it takes forever to load if @ all (for me anyway), using the regional thread for more than archives kind of negates the point of this message board. For all those concerned, I will communicate exclusively through message board and private telegrams.
[ooc
----------------------------------------
The Nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
Our Librarian has only requested it, he has not demanded anything. He is not in a position within our own social infrastructure to command such a thing to slave races. Although we in general could command our hierarchy members to record it themselves, we do feel that this would be out of order, regarding the potentially better working mutual coexistance.
Furthermore, keeping a close eye on our brethren binds the recources needed for the inforcement of such a rule.
Whenever our HyperWave Caster is working and our Librarian has some time available, he will record the messages for eternity.
Lord 154
for records we have archived our broadcast here.
We will charge you the costs, Lord 241.
--------------------------------------
The Crimson Corporation of Druuge:
Dear Purity Monitor Osho of Eggerhexe,
please do not be sorry for the loss of one of our Maulers.
We do have plenty of them, and the scientific results we got from the ship before it blew and from the debris collected are more worth than just one Mauler.
The problem was at most on our side, since we did not understand your physical nature. Especially did we not expect, that specimens of your species could grow under these circumstances to a diameter of more than 25 meters. Our ship was not designed for crewmembers larger than 2.5 meters, that's where the problem has been.
Nontheless, we are interested in further trade with you and your people.
Albeert
Our Librarian, Lord 241, has another message for all of you who whish to re-hear HyperWave transmissions.
And to you Druuge, we record these messages for the benefit of all nations. And we do know that you will try to sell the information on these free archives, whenever you get a chance to do so. Therefor, a complete archive would be in your interest as well.

The Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah Legions of Death 390
YOU WORDS ARE MEANINGLESS ILWRATH. PUNISHMENT IS DESTRUCTION. THE ONLY CONSOLATION YOU MAY HAVE IS THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE BONES OF YOUR SPECIES WILL ADORN THE WALLS OF OUR TROPHY PITS FOR A MILLENIA.
DEATH 390
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Great Nation of Smok
Well, I personally have some consolation in that I know how to spell "millennia."
Persuant with the UN Space Consortium, Earth's Moon (Sol 3a) is no longer claimed by the Great Nation of Smok. Anyone is free to explore and/or exploit it. However, Smok DOES claim the entire circumambient space AROUND the Moon, so unless you can teleport from beyond the arbitrary rim of the Sol system, or are one of the nations allowed entry into the system (Starbase Commanders, Burvix, ZoqFotPik) stay out!

The Holy Republic of UrQuan KohrAh
Greetings all life forms! we mean you no harm. We are the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah who departed this realm several weeks ago. Our numbers are depleted during our war against the insidius Orz, however we beleive that......By the Lords of circle table! the orz rule this region!?! No! this cannot be permitted!! Rise up brothers lest we be sucked into oblivion!!
Death 001
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Great Nation of Smok Death 001,
The Orz merely represent us in the UN. They have hardly any say in the ruling of the various nations. They have not engaged in hostile acts of late.
Of much greater import, Death 001, is the erratic behavior of your underling Death 390. You claim that the Kohr-Ah are peaceful. If this is so, then restrain your subordinate from attacking the Ilwrath.
-Secretary of State Chomsky
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
The Orz are merely our representative.
We admit, this has not been a good choice, their vac-suits are merely only raising suspicion with all other nations in the UN.
But seeing the faces of the leaders from other strong nations has been worthwile visiting the UN.
Lord 240
Observer for the Nation of Kzer-Za in the UN
Just another archived forumbroadcast.
To Lord 241:
And of course we will support you further with the completement of the recordings. We would gladly become the exclusive marketing partner.
Please let us talk about a possible deal.
Niirti
CEO
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Death 390 has reached control over this region.
Now what?
Be warned, we do not accept interferences in our business of any kind.
And if you do use the delegates information to interfere in our business, we will use our vast armada of perfectly trained Marauders and snipe you out of the Sky.
Otherwise, we congratulate you and hope you adopt a policy of free trade between the nations. Our market is open to anyone and we hope that everybody will open their market for our products.
Niirti
CEO
Edit: 4 days only to seize control over our region? You are nearly as fast as the ORZ were. You must have good intrigants. May we come back and take a good look at your information channels? Or maybe even use them The Nation of Smok has some very interesting technological details, where we rather have a good look at. Please contact us for a deal.
Does anybody here know a way I can secure a copy of Star Control 2 for PC? I've been trying to replace my copy forever... *sigh*. If you've got any ideas, telegram either The Colony of Newbucks or the Oppressed Peoples of McMicroBucks. Thanks!
(Spathi Rule!)
above message has been answered by me already, Enjoy UQM!
To Niirti: No, we do not give away exclusive marketing rights for free. If you'll contact Lord 008 and are willing to join our hierarchy, we might consider giving you exclusive merketing rights if you'll obey all other conditions regarding joining our hierarchy.

The Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah Legions of Death 390
DO NOT FEAR ALIENS. THE UR-QUAN KOHR-AH WILL NOT INITIATE ANY GENOCIDAL ACTS IN THIS REGION IN ACCORDANCE WITH KZER-ZA MANDATE. HOWEVER WE WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY INTER-SPECIES HOSTILITIES, THE RESULTS OF SUCH ACTION WILL BE THE ELIMINATION OF BOTH SPECIES INVOLVED. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
AS SUCH I ORDER ALL ILWRATH TO DISARM AND RETURN TO THEIR OWN SPACE. ANY FURTHER HOSTILITES AGAINST THE VUX, HUMANS, OR ANY OTHER SENTIENT SPECIES WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.
DEATH 390
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
Congratulations, dear Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah Legions of Death 390.
We appreciate your official declaration of ceasement of all unprovoked genocide. Although the Ur-Quan never lie, we will keep a close eye on all actions within this quadrant.

The Incinerated World of Burvixese:
[very bitter and icecold voice]
Formal Congratulations, Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah Legions of Death 390.
Although you do not have our support, you seem to have gained major support within the UN-members of this region.
We hope that you really have abandoned your faulty ways of genocide. Please note, that your recently returned brothers of the Holy Republic of UrQuan KohrAh have tried to eliminate us by incinerating our world, shortly afterwards they have vanished, but we have survived.
Although we did not completely understand what has happened, we will do our best to make it happen again to you if you take steps against us.

We have to admit, you ARE pretty good @ seething; why don't we split our Mycon duties, and specialize? You can seethe, and we will become turgid. That makes less work for both of us.

That sounds reasonable. We shall from henceforth be the galaxies greatest seethers(c) while you are free to become the most turgid(tm) lifeform ever known!

The Black Spathi Squadron of Fwiffi:

Please, people. Remember how hard we've been hitten last time?
Please stop this mess while you still can!
Official resolution of the Burvixese parliament.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lord 241 of the nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
No, we are not willing to join your hierarchy.
Nothing more to say about this.
For records:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Galactic Heirarchy of Ur-Quan KzerZa,
we appreciate your offer of speaking pets, but our mechanical and electronic translators are very cheap and require no food. Therefor we will not accept your talking pets as payment.
If you are still interested in the deal, we can offer you a special deal.
Seeing that your species is build quite large and has long tentacles, we suspect that each individual of your kind has the ability to work for 2 Druuges, even if the workplaces are in different rooms, therefor we are ready to offer you 1 Mauler in exchange for 50 of your people.
If you are still interested, you may contact us whenever you like.
Niirti
CEO
Just for records,
Lord 241
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Galactic Heirarchy of Ur-Quan KzerZa:
Attention all life forms!
War is not required. While we thank the Spathi for the pledge of support, we have, peaceably been restored to power! The Kohr-Ah have been removed. While we do not wish our cousins ill, we feel that this galaxy will be more stable under Ur-Quan leadership.
We offer a temporary amnesty to all nations who have been engaging in hostile actions againsts their neighbours. However you must retreat to your home systems at once.
To Death 390 and Death 101. You are invited to continue your participation in galactic events, but, as losers of the doctrinal war, you must return the Sa-Matra immediatley.
Lord 13
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Great Nation of Smok:
King Krulle,
Our engineers have completed their work on the planet's surface. It will take decades for the planet to completely heal, but it is habitable. I'm afraid that we were forced to replace some of your extinct species with alien ones, in order to fill vital niches in your ecosystem. We think that it would be prudent to fortify your system with [CODED INFORMATION: [deleted by librarian Lord 241]. We await your approval for this massive project. Please understand that we are in no way an occupying force intended to oppress you. Our fleet will leave your system peacefully if your people vote for our removal by a simple majority.
-Secretary of Defense Patton
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Great Nation of Smok:
Lord 13,
Smok has no intention of withdrawing our forces from either the Arcturus or Alpha Tucanae systems. Under your so-called protection the Burvixese homeworld was devastated by the Kohr-Ah. Since you cannot protect the Zoq, the Fot, the Pik or the Burvixese, and they evidently cannot protect themselves, that duty falls to us. We have not behaved aggressively toward any nation, and indeed have no engaged in any combat in the history of our nation. Do not think that this implies weakness on our part. Our populous nation has been engaged, since the aquisition of Druuge FTL drives, in the production of Cruisers. Our deal with the Androsynthetic has allowed us to produce massive numbers of fission weapons. Think well upon it before you, as we say on Sol 3, "stir up the hornet's nest."
-President Blackthorne
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Galactic Heirarchy of Ur-Quan KzerZa:
Attention President Blackthorne and all potential renegades.
We Ur-Quan have granted relative freedom within this galaxy since the war which resulted in massive loss of life inluding our great friends the Burvixese.
HOWEVER we will not tolerate rebellion on the massive scale your are displaying. Such acts simply promote mistrust and recipricol acts of aggression. As such our new might Precursor device, which we have name the Su-Notru has telepored your entire fleet into the rejected realms of deep space. While you are free to return you may only do so if your fleet returns yo your home world.
Lord 13
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Black Spathi Squadron of Fwiffi:
That will be teaching you pesky Hunam!
We, The Black Spathi Squadron would fight to the death to uphold the leadership of the Ur-Quan! (Even though our leaders cower in a bunker on our secret base, whose location i will not tell anyone even when threatened with extreme amounts of tortue!)

The Holy Republic of UrQuan KohrAh:
I think a kind of insanity has gripped my Ur-Quan cousins!!
It must be the influence of renegade speaking pets perhaps...!?!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Nomadic Hierarchy of Kzer-Za:
Dear Nation of Smok, we hope you receive this message.
We were responsible for the safety of the Burvixese.
But we failed.
There can be no excuse why.
There can be no apology heartily enough to make forget what happened.
We are ashamed.
To our luck, the Burvixese survived.
Currently, we are researching how it was possible, that the atmosphere of Arcturus reflected so much energy into space, thus protecting the planet and it's life forms up to a certain degree.
But we are working on putting it all back to a better shape.
We do not know, why our brothers from the Galactic Heirarchy put you under a slaveshield.
In case, you whish to read this HyperWave Broadcast, we will archive this message at the galactic coordinates
http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=90244&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=60
On the other hand, why are so many nations moving?
While we are sending this broadcast, our brethren, the Ur-Quan KzerZa and the Legions of Death 390 have moved as well.
Lord 001
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Incinerated World of Burvixese:
We do not know what happened.
Regarding the incineration of our Homeworld:
we grieve, but we do not mean any Kzer-Za harm.
The loss of large portions of our nation does hurt us, but the help we are receiving is tremendous.
But now, that the Ur-Quan KzerZa have left this region, we can vote for a new UN-delegate, who will have the difficult taks, to bring this region with all its nations back to sense.
Bunbun
Elected Primeminister of the Burvixese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Holy Republic of UrQuan KohrAh:
Agreed.
I can only apologies for the insanity which members of my species have unleashed. I for one am a far saner example of a Kohr-Ah.
I will pledge my tentacles to Frumples, as original founder and general errr Happy Camper?

The Incinerated World of Burvixese:
Our observers tell us they are figthing a new Doctrinal War near our region, just next to it (region star control 2).
No other information has reached us yet, but during Doctrinal Wars, the Ur-Quan are always a little bit secretive and non-talking.
Aylee
Foreign Minister
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO NOTE HERE:
To prevent a war, the Ur-Quan KzerZa have banned the Nation of Smok, which caused quite a havoc in our region. There have been plans to reinstall a founder to prevent things like un-provoked banning.
Due to problems coordinating an evacuation (not all players check by regularily), it seems this try has been canceled.
All the OOC messages regarding this reinstalling have not been recorded.

The Philosocracy of Lost Chenjesu:
Subject: Unified Galactic Currency
In an effort to improve ease of trade and by extension diplomatic relations between all nations, the Lost Chenjesu hereby propose that all nations adopt a new, unified measure of wealth. The USC or "Unified Sector Credit".
Currently there is a conglomoration of various currencies -- both real and virtual -- which is inhibiting the economic growth of our both our region as well as our individual nations.
It is our sincerest hope that a unified currency will encourage a unified sector. The currency should exist both as a virtual measure of wealth (such as the credit) and also have a physical infarnation (such as the RU). The physical incarnation is to facilitate trade in those instances where any party is unable to access the Galactic Curreny Exchange's software.
The Lost Chenjesu will glady host and maintain the Galactic Currency Exchange, being that we are a neutral nation. As we have no need for material wealth among our people there is no likelihood of our tampering with the database for personal gain.
Though perhaps defeating the purpose, participation in the unified galactic credit is completely voluntary. Those nations who wish to participate can switch over to the USC standard as soon as they're ready. The Galactic Currency Exchange signal operates on Hyperwave Channel 111.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Dogar And Kazon Nation of Dill-Rats:
Dwe Support The Unified Galactic Currency.
Within A Few Hours, Our Politicians Will Have Declared The New Currency Official. It Will Be The U S C.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Philosocracy of Lost Chenjesu,
if you are willing to share the winnings of the Calactic Currency Exchange with us, we might consider it. But otherwise we will not let go of our sign of independence.
We are a free nation with a free currency!

I believe it important to present a unified Star Control region. I don't feel that the "duke nukem" and "blue lander" nations in "Star Control" region are very fitting. I'll be staying until non-themed nations are removed or if everyone in "The Star Control" goes back. Please lodge this as a message.

There's a star-control community on here? A sudden exhilaration sweeps through my old body! I just wish I knew that when I signed up and was thinking of names.
My flag is vaguely Shofixti-ish, is there any way to change my nation handle or do I just have to start over?
