My nation (it is a FT nation) is producing the means to explore space. Does any one have advice on what I need as far as a military goes. Also advice on technology and starships, as well as how to fight other space nations.

Please I need this advice!

Here is a little bit about my nation in case you need it.

Races: Saiyans, Humans, Challengers, Dragons, and Inobites (the original inhabitants of my planet and country), also we have created Androids.

There really is no single list of things you need in order to pleasantly explore the space realms of NS. Just play along as you feel necessary.

Many new nations select an already existing Sci-Fi universe (Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5, Firefly, Futurama, etc.) and use their technology and society for a model for their own nation. Others, like myself, create their own society and technology to use (Although I did base mine on the world of FreeSpace). If you don't want to be accused of Godmodding and wankery (And people here are very quick to throw around these insults) I'd suggest starting small, no multi-km battleships until you've been flying around space for a while, and work on constructing a well-rounded fleet of ships (Include shuttles and transports and freighters in your fleet, not just cruisers and destroyers).

See if you can find an older nation to have an introductory RP with; I'm not saying find somebody bigger to protect you and to copy their life, but somebody who knows how things work on this site so you can see how we roll.

Thank you
