Band of 6 Astronauts!
« on: September 23, 2011, 05:04:26 pm »

Well since everything i make fails all the time, Random Content RPG, Roll to !!SCIENCE!! i am trying to do one of my few last attempts at making a forum game and keeping interest in it!


Generic Private Space Agency has been hired by NASA! A band of 6 astronauts, the pilot, the co-pilot, the engineer, the docter, the astrophysicist and the mission specialist are to board the spaceplane Seagull-X82, to be lifted into space by a ShellShudder-V322-L45K far orbit/solar orbit lifting system, to be put into Near Light Speed by a 3 stage NLS Noble Plasma Propulsion Drive solution. Seagull is enroute to Gliese, the far out star with possibly habitable enviroments, you are this band of 6 astronauts, and you are destined to settle down on one of Gliese's sattelites or die trying.

Game system: Space is a dangerous place, and most nontrivial, and even a few trivial ones, require you to flip a coin, if heads, well you had luck with you, if tails, well your damned.
We are launching within a real day, the trip itself would be 4 days, the rest travel would pretty much be something like one or a half day's IRL travel. You can sign up to any of theese positions, everyone signign up beyond the 6 person cap will play as robotic assistants. I myself will play as the humble pilot.

Its ok, the co-pilot is basically the guy with all the computer stuff related to communications/navigations anyway.


News headline:
Today is a big day, the spaceship Seagull is about to be launched, its destination is the star system Gliese. A band of 6 brave heroes are about to board, Engineer Sinpwn, Dr. Barbarossa, Dr. MonkeyHead Mission specialist Sir Elfeater, Pilot DrPoo and Co-Pilot Tersr. They are about to close the door now, wait no! Out comes the Pilot, where is he heading? Who's that woman over there? Oh that must be his wife, ok now he is running back with a... roll of toilet paper? Ok, we have received a message from mission control that they are ready to launch.

RUMBLE-RUMBL-RUMBLE-RUMBLE-BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM-KASWEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRR

And we have liftoff! Current altitude is 200 meters, we are reaching Mach one, engaging main engine, boosters 4/6 full, temperature 1150 degrees celscius. 3/6... 2/6... 1/6... jettisoning boosters.
(15 minutes later) We have reached LEO, engaging orbital ascension burn. (30 minutes later) Alright, we are in a far earth orbit, distance 38.000 kilometers.
(( AI REPORT: ALL PERSONELL REQUIRED TO ENTER THEIR RESPECTIVE CHEMOSTATIS CABINS ))

DrPoo switches the autopilot on, the dials on the instrumentation board begins turning around on their own and faint synthesied voices begin speaking from each of the different monitoring system, not a single alert sounds as the supposedly flawless artificial intelligence takes control of the spacecraft. He enters his cabin, his face cringes as syringes inject various chemicals into his spine, then he goes limp, as if dead, the cabin's window becomes opaque and dark blue in its colour, vapors spit out of little channels in the cabin as the respirator turns on. This is quite unsettling.

Well you can be creative and do something like AccordionBot3000. But then there is medical, construction, exacavation and survey robots.
