Name: Heinrich von Hyttenrauch
Imperial Title: Count
Military Rank: Rear Admiral, Upper Half (really just fluff, but if I could have a fleet I would be happy)
Holdings: The Imperial County of Neu Preußen, a modestly capable world in its own right.

Cool. game start in 3 days. To clear things up, all independent counts/dukes/barons will have their own fleets. The size of said fleets will be determined probably by what percentage of total upkeep they cost (total upkeep, as in upkeep before breaking even in the budget). If I can fiddle around with the editor properly, I'll try to get everyone one in as either admirals, general, diplomats, etc.

Name: Verah Atoste
Imperial Title: Duke
Military Rank: Commander
Holdings: Loreli, a modest planet with a large spaceport (preferably capable of building multiple ships at once)
Current Status: Commanding his fleet (I would prefer a fleet of a large flag ship and a few small cruisers/a single cruiser if the budget is tight)
Fluff: Duke Verah Atoste was born into a proud royal family that was heavily military minded.  At a young age he was hardened to the atrocities of war, but also learned the importance of his own people.  His father took part in the formation of the Imperial Constitution, but unfortunately died shortly before the document was finished.  When he took his fathers place the Duke quickly looked over his holdings and realized his greatest strength was the massive production capabilities of his spaceport in respect to the rest of the empire.  Realizing his current goals (my secret) he began his rule.

I like how everyone else is in a military dick waving contest already, and I'm just hanging around being David Bowie.

[Urist McScoopbeard]

yep, lol.

I hope you guys know that for the most part, you're all commanders of fleets anyways. none of you will get promoted unless this game gets really popular.

I forget, can you throw entertainment modules and other "passenger ship" stuff onto military vessels? I want my fleet to be a fleet of pleasure cruisers because it is hilarious and decadent.

Also makes a good contrast to all the other "rawr I am the greatest at the shotting" lords

[Urist McScoopbeard]

lol, I think so.

[engineer13]

BFEL you shall be my ally.  Together we shall be the greatest nobles in all the empire.  GLORY TO THE EMPIRE.

[GentlemanRaptor]

Hey! I'll have you know that I won the gold medal in shotting! Your decadence will be your doom, Lodras!

[Urist McScoopbeard]

intrigue abound. Hold off yet mates, the game will start in a couple of days!

[Urist McScoopbeard]

We begin tomorrow sometime. Expect the new thread later today or tomorrow.

Better put up my character


Name: Koshan Ferip
Imperial Title: Logical Advisor for the Emperor
Politics: Unioniste (Centralist-Liberal)
Fluff: An unlikely figure to be in the Imperial Court, Koshan was born into the military, yet adopted into the government. While his adoptive parents were not particularly remarkable, they did ensure his heterodox and complete education: while not best in his class academically, he certainly was among the most intelligent and held information that no one could ever be held to know. His life path almost seemed determined by fate alone; his run-ins with the law seeming to work in his favor, leading to the first expanding of his network leading into its now imperial span. It has taken him a long time to realize that he is, in fact, a leader of humanity.

EDIT: Muhahahah! It begins!!! getting all of the things ready!

[Urist McScoopbeard]

It begins.
