For almost a millenia, The Galactic Confederacy has maintained a fragile piece over thousands of worlds. Some called them oppressors, some called them saviours. What they were, doesn't matter anymore. Their empire has fallen due to treason and corruption, and now a hundred races are feasting on it's corpse. Your nation is among them and in these dire times, you need to guide it to Glory and prosperity, in order to ensure it's continued existence, and maybe even bring peace back to the World.

Spoiler: The Gate network (click to show/hide)

This is what makes travel possible between different systems. It's composed of a network of jump points and gates, each leading to their own predetermined sector. In the days before the fall, the Confederacy maintained the jumpgates, but now many of them have been destroyed or damaged. This is why the Jumpdrive, which allows jumptravel without a gate, has once again become popular. Each sector consits out of a single solar system with some planets.

Spoiler: Planets and planetary mechanics (click to show/hide)

Each planet has 7 associated stats and maybe some additionall resources. These are:
-Size: How much buildings can be constructed
-Population: This is limited by the amount of food you have. Changes in pop will not be instant. Pop is needed to work in buildings.
-Industrial capacity: This resource is used to construct things
-Science: This resource is used to construct things
-Energy: This resource can be easily used as a currency, but is also used to power spaceships.
-Ecology: This stat reflects the overall health of the planet. Best is to keep it as high as possible. Bombardements, and other actions also lower it. Some natural structures on the planet regenerate it, qnd with the right tech you can reunivate your planet.

There are a variety of buildings that can be constructed on a planet. These are:

Population
-Farm:      1 IC, 1 size. 1 Pop workforce required. Produces Ecology/20 food
-Improved farm: 2 IC, 2 size. 2 pop workforce required. Produces ecology/10 food.

Industry
-Mine:       2 IC, 1 size   2 Pop workforce required. Produces 2 IC/ turn. Lowers ecology by 1 for every turn in operation
-Industry: 6 IC,  4 size  4 Pop workforce required. Produces 4 IC/turn  . Lowers ecology by 1 per turn in operation
-Improved industry: 8 IC, 4 size, 5 pop workforce. Produces 5 IC/turn. Lowers ecology by 1 per turn in operation

-Nanotech Fabrication: 15 IC, 4 size, 4 pop workforce. Produces 6 IC/ turn. Warning: Only you can prevent Grey goo.

Science
-Lab:        6 IC, 2 size, 2 pop workforce required. Produces 2 science points per turn
-Large lab  15 IC,4 size, 6 pop Produces 6 science points/ turn

Energy
-Fuel refinery: 4 IC 2 size, 2 pop workforce. Produces 2 energy each turn. Lowers ecology by one

Utility:
-Observatory: 2 IC, 1 size, 1 workforce. Allows you to detect all motion in your system and do remote exploration
-Artificial pollution Filter: Size 4, 4IC, removes 1 pollution 
-Hospital: Size:2, 6IC, 0/1 pop. Increases soldier heal rate, increases pop growth
-Small spaceport/Shipyard: 5 Ic, 2 size, 2 workforce  Allows you to create ships with a max size of 40, as oposed to the default 20

Spoiler: Ships (click to show/hide)

Ships are created with a modular system. This works by dividing  sizepoints amongst different subsystems. 10 points equals 1IC in construction costs. Stuff is often rounded up. At the moment, not much is available. A ship has Health equal to it's Sizepoints divided by 4.

Engines:
-Basic chemical engine: Uses 0.25 energy/turn/ module. 1 Engine is needed per speed level per 5 points of total ship size.(Ie, a size 10 ship would need 4 Engines to have Speed level 2)
-Chemical engine MKII. Uses 0.20 energy/turn/ module. 1 Engine is needed per speed level per 5 points of total ship size.(Ie, a size 10 ship would need 4 Engines to have Speed level 2)

-Ion engine. Uses 0.05 energy/turn/ module. 1 Engine is needed per speed level per 2.5 points of total ship size

Drives:
-Jumpdrive. Uses 1 fuel per jump. 1 Jumpdrive is required for every 5 points of ship size. Jump safety is not guaranteed.

Fuel tanks:
-Basic fuel tank: Stores 1 fuel per sizepoint
-Basic fuel tank MKII: Stores 1.2 fuel per sizepoint

Weaponry (A ship without weaponry can't fire, a ship with negative or zero attack can still attack and do damage)
     -Basic Kinetic weaponry : Attack=(weapons size/5)
     -Basic Laser weaponry  : Attack= (Weapon size/4) (Note: Ineffective against shields)

Armor:
-Basic armor. Adds 1 hp per 2 sizepoints
-Improved armor: Adds 1.2 hp per 2 sizepoints

Shields:
Crude shield generator: Maintains a 1hp*Size units shield around the ship. Requires 0.05 fuel per incombat turn. Regens at a rate of 0.2.

Deflector shields:
Crude Deflector shield: Adds a +1 Defense modifier for every 2 size units dedicated. A single deflector shield can only cover up to 20 size units of ship.

Modules:
-Sensor module: This allows the ship to do basic recon. It's range is no better than the orbit of the planet it is in. Size: 2
-Colonization module. Can hold 1 pop unit. Size: 10
-Troop pod. Can hold 1 Battalion. Size: 2
-Cargo module: Stores 1 resource per 2 size points
-Mining laser: Size: 4. Requires 0.25 fuel/ turn. Produces 1 IC/ turn. Reduces Ecology by 1/ turn (Note, this is a direct reduction. Trees ain't going to save ya)

Local system description: If you want too. I can gen one for you if you want.

Spoiler: Combat (click to show/hide)

Each pop unit equals five Battalions of soldiers. You can draft at most 10% of the population whitout damaging production. Soldiers can gain traits and xp. Permanent soldiers have 2 attack, 2 defense and 10 hp, while militia drafted on the spot only has one attack and defesne

Equipment:
Basic weaponry: 1 IC: +1 attack
Improved weaponry: 2 IC +2 to attack

Basic armour: 1 IC: +1 defense

Spoiler: Research (click to show/hide)

Research can be done unguided or into a proper project. There's no limit in how many projects you can set up (within reason), and you don't need to invest in a project to see it's costs and goal.

Unguided research means giving a broad subject (Ie, IC production) and letting the Gm decide. Guided research can be more specific.

Sounds interesting, count me in.
Race name: Narma (sing. Narman)
Race description: Narma are smallish, but can carry out basic physical tasks. They rely mainly on machines to work for them, and must be nimble and agile to maintain the machinery. they are humanoid with long arms and thin bodies. Their skin is usually beige or light brown coloured and in young, slightly translucent. They are highly intelligent but lack any significant strength due to small bodies and muscles.
Planet name: Narmalia
Planet description: A highly fertile world with mountainous regions at the poles. Most of the surface is covered by rolling hills, thick forest, or vast ocean. the mountainous regions are rich in minerals but inhospitable and home to several savage creatures. There are two main cities on opposite sides of a large ocean. Marmalan and Hernapolis. The trees that make up the forests are similar to oak but taller and with slightly smaller canopies. Vegetation includes ferns and broadleaf weeds. The planet is roughly the size of earth.
Local System description: The central star is similar to Sol (Our sun) but larger with a blue tinge. There are 5 planets orbiting it. Narmalia is the 5th and last of these. The other four are, in order of proximity to the star: Inhospitable, molten surface; Inhospitable, magma seas, rocky landscape; Inhospitable, rocky with ice caps at poles; Hospitable, rocky with some dirt near oceans, sparse vegetation, mineral rich; Narmalia

[10ebbor10]

The system description is basically what the local solar system looks like. Ie, how many planets, what size, stuff like that.

[Kashyyk]

I think I'll get in on this. Gimme a few minutes.

Race name: Alloran
Race Description: The Alloran are large and bull like, heavily muscled and tough and stand about 3.5m tall. They are covered with scales, ranging from dark brown to red across their back, and light brown to a very pale pink on their fronts. They are industrious and as such, have no respect for ecology.
Planet name: Alloris III
Planet Description: A mountainous planet, with huge, dense jungle across almost all landmass, capped with small arctic regions at each pole. The fauna (ranging from scaled, beaked dogs, to winged lizards that hunt in packs) is deadly and the flora is not much better, causing the Alorran's both their hardiness, and their lack of care for the environment.
Local system description: Alloris is similar to that of Sol, but with six planets. Alloris Prime is small and molten; Alloris II is hot and lifeless; the Alloran homeworld is third; Alloris IV is a gas giant, with several large moons and many smaller ones orbiting it, all in various degrees of inhospitality, except one,which although lifeless, has a similar atmosphere to that of Alloris III; Alloris V is a large, barren rock; and Alloris VI is a small tundra planet with sparse lifeforms.

Edited application with System description.

[SoHowAreYou]

Can I reserve a spot, I am at show right now on my phone it's homecoming here, and I am performing sheet tommorrow too tired tonight.

[lemon10]

In, I will have a application/signup done within half an hour.
EDIT:

Player Name: Emperor Botoro
Race name: Botoron
The Botoron are naturally a race of highly powerful psions. However, this caused a powerful Psion to enslave their entire race millenia ago. He has since locked the Psionic powers of all the other Borons to prevent them from escaping his grasp.
Their supreme leader, Emporer Botoro will brook no dissent, causing a psychically enforced uniformity of opinions. This results in slow movement and thought as a side effect, although they naturally very intelligent and capable of rapid movement. Physically, the Botoron are crystalline beings, growing and consuming crystals for food which require very specific conditions to grow. Their crystalline form results in high resistance to non-blunt sources of trauma. They are able to consume organic life and turn it into energy to feed their crystal plants and food.

(The bonuses are rather flexibile, since you could have them have high morale or be immune to spies since they are being controlled if you deem that one of the others is too strong or something).

Planet name: Gungar. A wasteland clear of all organic life. Massive crystal cities reach towards the sky, and vast plains of the crystalline food that the Botorons consume stretch in all directions. Crystal forests reach towards the sky. Mountains ranged arch jagged above the crystal landscape far below. There is no liquids on the planet at all, although the lower elevations of the planet are home to dangerous psychic predators that the common Botoron has no defense against at all, and as such large swaths of the planet are covered in forest and kept clear of. There is a fair amount of minerals remaining.
Local system description: Five planets in orbit about the binary stars Orin (A small bright blue star) and Niro (A star twice the size of our sun and a dull red). The Botoro are settled on the second planet closest to the sun, Gungar.
The first planet is rocky, and far too hot for the Botoro. The second planet is Gungar. The third planet is inhospitable, with no life to consume to provide fuel for the crystals, and completely lacking in minerals. The fourth planet is a large gas giant. The fifth planet is a truly massive gas giant, with a orbiting moon large enough (and getting enough light and heat) supportint indigenous life, it has medium minerals.

[LAAT501legion]

Player Name:Lord Aldea
Race name:Imperials
      -The Imperials are a humanoid race, but they reproduce faster than humans, that lived in an state of constant war between different factions that waged for the control of the empire, something that made them develop advanced ranged weapons. This ruthless way of life led made them to try to use all resorces possible,hampering the enviroment.
Planet name: McTheridon is an industrial planet, with a surface populated by hive cities and polluting factories.It's name comes from the Siege of McTheredon's Fortress, an ancient fortress that made Warlord Aldea win the battle against impossible odds, that allowed him conquering the entire planet and creating a disctatorial military regime.

[RulerOfNothing]

In, I think I'll have an application within the hour.
My race:

Race Name: Retha (singular Reth)
Race Description: The Retha are a race of semi-aquatic rodents that stand at about 1.4m tall and are usually covered in brown-grey fur. They have a particularly efficient metabolism. Their society tends to value reliability and durability in their technology, but this results in significant over-engineering so they have reduced industrial throughput.
Planet Name: Rethacal. The Retha homeworld is somewhat smaller than Earth (about 10500km in diameter) with high pressure (about 20% higher than Earth's) and oceans covering 78% of the surface. The planet also has dense concentrations of minerals, causing the gravity to be slightly higher than on Earth.
System Description: The star is a K-type main sequence star. I might come up with a system later.
Is this alright?

The Forgotten Ones

The Forgotten Ones are a proud race built on their technology, they are a race of researchers, who pushed the edge of knowledge, they also were the greatest nanoroboticist, before the confederacy fell, they still retain their advanced use of this nanotechnology, this however has caused them too augment themselves to the distaste of others, so they suck at diplomacy. Even during the Confederation few knew of them, but this may change


Their home planet known as the Lost Hope, given by the first religious missionaries who saw the Forgotten Ones and the planet, the planet is a monstrous piece of technology, the "ecosystem" has long since been replaced by nanobots, relying on old generators for power, home is networked planet which is how the Forgotten Ones want too keep it, because this planet with current tech is optimized for them.

Their system is relatively pristine, though all it would take is a few probes too change this.

So that will be it, unless someone wants to change anything.

I would like actions in the following format:

Construction
You can construct things using IC (=Industrial capacity). This can be stockpiled between turns.

Research
Suggest a project, I'll add the cost. You can also say things like, develop new agriculture stuff and such.

Manpower
Any changes to the allocation of people to different industries. Shouldnn't be a problem right now.

Army/Navy movements

General actions
If you do something not covered in the first 2.
