Everything seems to be moving along nicely.  We encounter any alien hostiles yet?

This is the part that sucks. Aliens are FAAAAAAAR away from us because space is big. Like, very big. Also, I control all the alien races. They are assuredly FAAAAAAAAAR away from you. I kinda thought you guys would scrap amongst yourselves until the aliens showed up. Eventually, I might even let you join as an alien, but not until we discover a LOT about them.

Hiya!

As the massive colony ship approached the anomaly grew steadily larger and larger in the view screen until everything became an unnatural shade of blue. One last status report was sent back to headquarters and then, they were free!

I would like to make something very clear. Communications do not work across warp points. So, you are not capable of calling someone up in another system. You have to send them a letter through the warp point.

Also, as emminently practical as stringing two satellites with a cable connecting them through the warp point so it would actually be feasible...It simply wouldn't be fun. For me, anyways.

Also, because I took a darn hiatus from updating this, I may have forgotten some people. If you think you've fallen by the wayside, or simply want an update about what's going on within your ship or company, drop me a PM. My door is always open, except when I'm asleep.

Edit: Another turn passed. Nothing interesting for you system-side folk.

There is no chance of this dieing.  He just PM'ed the vital turn info to me for last turn yesterday.  At one week, and no update, then we speculate. At two weeks, we get seriously worried, and at a month (or thereabouts) it's dead.

Which is why you should always wait a month before reviving something, otherwise it wouldn't qualify as a zombie...

The date is 2402.8

The Seer, Nirur Torir’s explorer ship, has returned from the blue zone. After pulling into Jahannam, it was announced that he has returned with a map to a set of habitable planets in another system. The government has revealed that the blue zone is actually a portal: A portal to another system. Within Nirur Torir’s report, he reveals that there are warp points in other systems, too. The blue zone lead to a yellow-orange nebula that Captain Nirur Torir has dubbed “The Dustfire Nebula.” From the Dustfire nebula, he and his crew found another warp point. This one lead to an as yet unnamed system. A white star, orbited by many planets. Three of them habitable as domed colonies. Also, an overabundance of ice planets. The map is below. The Seer will be heading to Nirur Torir Shipyards to retrofit itself, and with the pay he was given by the government, Nirur Torir intends to build a fuel tanker to travel with his ship. This effectively makes him an admiral. The Emperor has stated that the colonizable planets are a first-come, first serve deal, so get while the getting’s good.



The Prowler company has finished repairing the space yard damaged in the S.O.C. attack, and is ready to construct new ships and equipment again. In other news, the Prowler company also conducted a raid on Jahannam. However, S.O.C. presence on the planet was minimal. No damage was incurred by the raid, but government officials stated that the Prowler Co. vigilantism nearly interrupted Admiral Nirur Torir’s promotion ceremony.

On Eggersdorf Bei Graz, a new ship is under construction. Details are sparse, but it seems as if some sort of frigate is being made for an Eggersdorf Noble. Governor Toony, when asked about the construction, said: “I’m getting paid for this. MY HAIR IS BURNING.”, and then lit a cigarette with a flaming hundred dollar bill.

Research is taking a long time. Expect another ten or so turns for any significant technology advances. This means you, megacorporations.
