Spoiler: Back gound (click to show/hide)

After the Last War humanity united under the leadership of grand chairman Héxié who pushed for a space program to reach the stars. His reasoning? Because of the lack of resources left on earth humanity was doomed if they were to stay. 50 years later saw a solar system colonized under the United Human Federation. The UHF. After a 300 year golden age the UHF fell apart because of infighting between the representatives of various planets, a bloody civil war erupted across the solar system. After 18 years of fighting a new threat arose, a alien fleet jumped out of the sun and proceed to destroy the habit-domes on Mercury. This fleet streaked across the stars at almost the speed of light, Venus had hardly gotten the news before it too was decimated. The first real resistance was at earth, they got the news in time to at least scramble the fighters. When the aliens made it to earth a bloody battle was fought over earth. Although the aliens won the battle their orbital strike cannons and laser lances were destroyed forcing them to personalty wipe out all resistance left on the planet in ship to ship combat. It took them six months. During these six month old feuds were left aside and the remaining six planets join together in what would be know as the New United Human Federation or NUHF. The battle plans were made and the NUHF fleet assembled at mars. When the alien fleet appeared they found the united efforts of all humanity arrayed against them. It was a long battle with many dead on both sides. After 18 hours of strike and counter strike the aliens lay defeated and the NUHF victorious. The first priority of this new government was to find where the aliens came from, some scientists suggested a hyperdrive, others said that was ridicules because they they were only moving the speed of light and their technology was not that much more advanced than humans. Searching proved useless no scans detected anything from the area of space they they came from. It was only after two years, when their technology was integrated in to human technology that the new and improved scans picked up a signal. There was a ring floating in space near the sun. It was never seen before because of highly advanced clocking technology and the fact that it was so close to the sun. Using a device found on the alien mother ship a team of explorers went though the gate. This was the start of the galactic age of humans.

The NUHF found a major battle on the other side of the gate between two different  fleets of ships, one of which belonged to the aliens that attacked humanity. The team from the NUHF attacked the hated enemy fleet and with the advantage of surprise crippled them allowing the other fleet to gain the upper hand and destroy the enemy fleet. After the battle the explorers meet with the other fleet and opened com screens tall thin aliens greeted them in a incomprehensible language. After some trial and error a deal was stuck one person from each race would go with the other race to try to translate the languages. Returning to Sol the explores were debriefed and a team of  scientists and language experts started to decode the alien language. What was learned astounded the human race. Apparently thousands of years ago a highly advanced race build the warp gate and than disappeared, they are the only know way to move fastly though space and no one has yet to discover how they work. The Pithiry, the race that the alien was, discovered a warpgate in their solar system and took to the stars. There they meet other races and were using the warpgate system to make a galactic civilization when the bug like Duren attacked them. A brutal war broke out between the Pithury and their allies and the Duren. Apparently the Duren found a new warpgate that lead to the Sol star system and attacked the humans. The Pithiry extended a invitation to the NUHF, join the  the galactic confederacy and fight off the Duren to enter a age of peace. The NUHF agreed and entered the war vs the Duren. This game takes place 450 years after this, the war is still raging but far away.

TL;DR: humans (and other races) are in a alliance verses some bug guys.

A new warpgate has been found and a colony has been sent through to the unexplored and resource rich sector of space.

This game will be based upon exploring, and exploiting, a new section of space. Each player will represent a power, be that a guild, a mercenary company, part of the galactic government, part of the NUHF, ect... You will  go through and try to become the dominant fraction in this new sector of space.

What I need from you is the name of your fraction and what you do. The game will work a bit like Age of restoration, a bit like evo light, and a bit like tribes.

Any questions?

Ze rules!
The main thing in this game is a D10 all rolls are made with it. A low roll is bad for the players A high roll is good. In most cases there are two rolls, one for success and one for magnitude.

But the rolls are not all! Major modifiers or even the ability to skip the first roll came from what you are using! If you attack a fleet with one ship you will lose... whether they kill you outright or just capture/shot down come from the second roll.

A major part of this game is building up your base of operations, weather a city kingdom or... base it is all about the building! And the money, see it takes Credits to build. Here is a list of current building in the game.

Spoiler: Buildings (click to show/hide)

City. the base population center it takes a level 10 town to make a city. A city can hold it's (levelx1000)+2000 people.
Town the base population center it can hold its levelx200
BaseLike a town but for military it gets bonuses to defense.

A lot of stuff is only defined when a person try's to do it.

This section is not done yet!

[Cheddarius]

Hmmm, I might join, but I've got a lot of games on my plate already...

[Criptfeind]

Here is the starting info by the way. I was going to give it out when people joined but I am to impatient.

Spoiler: Known space (click to show/hide)

C2- A class star system-Settled, one A class planet-Settled, one A class planet-Unexplored, one B-H class planet-Unexplored, One C-C class planet-Unexplored, One A class gas giant-Unexplored.

Spoiler: one A class planet-Settled (click to show/hide)

Resorces: Good soil, Plant life-normal, Water, Air, 2,000 population.
City: One level one city population 2,000
Scans detect metal ore. Other resources are probable.
___________________________________________________

So basically this is the starting area, dice rolls will determine much of what happens with actions.

Ex: Someone sends a crew with a ship to find metal in the hills two to the north of the city. They are non trained prospectors but there is Metal there (Iron to be precise) and they have good equipment, so pretty good plus to the action. I roll a high number so not only do they find plentiful iron but some platinum as well!

[Cheddarius]

Hmmmm.
I will join.
Faction name: Warriors of Great Lactosia
The Captain leads 5 fighters and 2 crew North and then Northwest, where they prospect for ore.
Three fighter pilots in three fighter ships and 3 pilots, 3 crew, and 5 fighters leave for the Yellow planet to explore.

[Criptfeind]

Cool.

Name:

Goals:

I will assign your starting units. Than if some other join we can start.

Oh so you are going to edit so fast I look blind? I would like a bit more detale, remember you are not the people in that city, you are a fraction of the Galactic Confederacy, the NUHF or other. You do not start with city's (but you can build them) It seems that you are... a mercenary company? In that case you start with three small fighter ships, a small docking ship, three pilots, three fighter pilots, five crew men, Ten fighters, and a captain.

Spoiler: small fighter ships (click to show/hide)

Med move, low power, cant go though space on own.
Twin laser four missiles. Needs one fighter pilot

Spoiler: small docking ship (click to show/hide)

low move, low power, can go though space on own, room for five fighters, crew quarters for 42, needs one captain (can use captains from other ships) three pilots, and five crew men to run at peak

[Cheddarius]

Edited my above post.

[Criptfeind]

Me too.

[Cheddarius]

And again.

[Criptfeind]

What are you doing with the small docking ship? is it prospecting, because if so than the fighter ships cant get to yellow planet "

Spoiler: small fighter ships (click to show/hide)

Med move, low power, cant go though space on own.
Twin laser four missiles. Needs one fighter pilot

And if it goes with them with out the captain they will be at greatly reduced proficiency.

Also the captain is not a prospector, he add nothing to the fighters work to find ore. Also do you mean North and then Northwest or North and then Northeast?

By the way I forgot two things, you start with 200Cr (monetary units) and space is bigger than just thous 7 hexes, in fact the only ones that are explored are C2 and E2... and I will fix the map soon.

[Cheddarius]

The docking ship will be going to the yellow planet too. My fighters don't need a docking ship to walk two hexes, do they? (Also, yeah, N NE.)
The captain will go with the fleet, I guess.

[Criptfeind]

Scanning equipment? HaHa nooooo.... I will write up the turn now (and make the map for the yellow planet) Feel free to name the planets if you want, it is unexplored space.

My fighters don't need a docking ship to walk two hexes, do they?

Well it is a entire planet, but it is assumed they hitch a ride or something if you don't proved transportation.

One more thing what color do you want to be?

[thunderclan]

This could be fun...

Faction Name: Dragoons

What we do: The Dragoons are a gathering of men and women who work to improve the lives of everyone through science and discovery.

If thats not enough info I can probably add more. 

[Criptfeind]

^That works^
Do you want to be a research team or more like a laboratory guild thingy? Hint: research team is funner.

Also Cheddarius turn: The fighters hitch a ride on a land transport going north they go one hex north. The Transport moves the rest of the crew to the yellow planet they land with no problems and start exploring. They find the air is breathable and signs of water. They are in a desert.

Spoiler: A class planet-Unexplored (click to show/hide)

Gray dot is your transport, not to scale.

Resources: Sand, Water (Probably), Air.
Other resources are probable.

When you dock on a planet can you say where you dock? I defaulted you to the middle.
