I'm just trying to find a fitting name for myself. Currently going through a list of greek names.

Then my first priority is finding making a name for me (I'll be joining the Chthonian Combine, if you haven't realized it yet).

Translating fireshitter to greek is my second priority.

EDIT: How does Miltos Theodorakis sound as a name?

[Johnfalcon99977]

I think I will join, although I wish to know how this game will play-out before I fully commit myself to it.

Spoiler: In any case... (click to show/hide)

Corporation Name: Ultor Mars Forge Co.
CEO Name: Alexander Buranas
Corporation Type: Industrial Gaint (( Population: 300 mil | Industry: 1000 IC | IC Shares: 3 | Strong Fleet ))
IC Breakdown:
   -Mining Investment: 50
   -Manufactory Investment: 500
   -Refinery Investment: 250
   -
Starting Planet: Mars (Duurrr...)
Fleet Focus: Agressive, Bulky and Large Builds. Ships loaded with as many Weapons as possible, with very liberal amounts of Armour  Supported with Small ships, Armed with Point Defenses.
History: When frist Settled by Man, Mars was thought to have been terraformed into a Second Earth. This was not the case. Although Breathable atmosphere was made, a Large portion of Mars was turned into Forges, Refineries, and Manufactories. All of these were generally feuding with each other over control of the Metal forge that was Mars. However, the World Corperation eventually intervened (The Feuds were hurting sales) and sent Alexander to unite them. With a Large portion of the World Corp Fleet.
All of Smaller Companies surrendered or were annihlated. Alexander became the sole ruling Force on Mars. However, greedy for Power himself, he easily lied about exactly how many ships were lost, keeping many of himself, and dropping just a small amount of Money on those who came back so they wouldn't turn on him. The WC quickly grew just a little fearful of him, as the true extent of Alexanders dishonesty, cunning, and occasional insanity became apparent. However, they could do little to stop him on Mars, being a Industrial center. Its scary to think about the extent his Ambition goes.

Other: A Large portion of Mars Population and Industry was annhilated in Alexanders take over. Mostly the Former.

If there's still a space for one corporation, Burnt Pies and me are joining. Here's our entry :

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Corporation Name: Antanaclase

CEO Name: Brotophek Arkelaus

Corporation Type: Religious Cult (400 IC, planetary, Population: 550 Mil, 2 Shares, Midweight fleet, Cultists occasionally make pilgrimage from earth to join the holy work)

IC Breakdown (You choose the focus of your faction. A mine, factory of any kind, financial center or refinery is 1 IC. A lab is 20):10 Labs, 50 Fuel Refineries, 30 Financial Centers, 60 Mines, 60 Construction Factories

Starting Planet/Asteroid: Io

Fleet Focus: Laser Frigates (Small-medium, some armour, reasonable speed, lasers.)

History:
When technological revolution brought Man space travel, it also brought an end to religion. With this human prowess, men started to think they were the equals of gods, and that therefore no being superior to them could exist.
Many previous believers broke and couldn't cope with the feeling of solitude it left them in.

But one day on Io, a great thinker of the name Aristarkaus was Enlightened. There might not be a superior being, but Man made it this far because something made him come this far : a Guiding Light, a Source of Enlightenment. Thus he became the first and greatest Brotophek, the Bringer of Light to men.
It fell to him to Reflect the Light on others on Io - and soon by his words, and his Faith, most of them came to understand that they were not alone, and that the Light guided as much Man as it guided men. They were full again and a new era of contentment seemed to be arising for Io.

But a minority spoke openly against the Light. Brotophek Aristarkaus, understanding the danger of those shrouded in Darkness, the Amphiks, he had them removed. Calm and peace spread throughout Io as they revelled in the Light.
Meanwhile the Brotophek created the Antanaclase Corporation so Io could survive as an entity, and with it showed his wisdom and strength : the Brotophek was the purest of the pure, but he had to bear the stain of the Amphiks by dealing with them. It was necessary.

But one day he called the most faithful of all into his rooms, and only one came out. He had passed a Test of Faith, and was now Brotophek Arkelaus.
He was as Aristarkaus was, gifted of great wisdom, and understood that he had to extend his Lighted hand to the Amphiks and preach about the Way of The Light.

Other: Ancient greek theme (for names etc)

JF, I'm afraid I won't let you join. I need committed players, Mars is already taken, and I wouldn't let you have 1000 IC anyway (and you couldn't man all those factories with that population of yours.) Oh, and I don't think you've got any experience of Aurora.

So yeah, it's better for you to join another corporation.

Kynrael, I'm split. 5 factions is already a lot to manage. Let me think about it, okay?

[evilcherry]

As I repeat, if someone need a player with prior Aurora experience, just pick me up.

Won't be able to be 100% committed, but would be capable of providing opinions and suggestions.

[Andrew425]

You can join Gargantuan if you so choose...

Alright, I'm picking the name of Eosphoros Nikator. So the CEO of the Chthonic Combine is Nwabudike Morgan, and its two most senior directors are Miltos Theodorakis and Eosphoros Nikator.

[evilcherry]

You can join Gargantuan if you so choose...

If he needs my services, he can always pick me up.

[LoSboccacc]

I've too open position if anyone wish to join

[Raddish]

I don't think I have a side yet so I could join you.

[Sheb]

Okay, I've started making up the different factions. Damn, Orbital Habitat are huge, the ones that host 50 mil people are around 250,000,000 tons!

[Kynrael]

Of course Sheb. I'm aware we sort of did that a bit too late, didn't expect this sudden rush of entries

[Repulsion]

So how soon will we jump into the realm of corporate greed and... space, I guess?

[Sheb]

I should post the OP on Saturday. I won't be able to work on it tonight as there is a family reunion.
