I found out about Planetary Picture Wars a while ago, and since I've never seen anything like that on MS Paint since I got here, I thought maybe we could try it out.
I really just wanna try and see if this game will pick up. Heck, maybe it'll be great fun for MS Paint.
I'll manage the OP, but to make decisions we'll all vote instead of having a GM.
[B]RULES:[/B]
1. No ridiculous superweapons/overpowered weapons
2. let your combatant decide damage when you attack
3. Be reasonable when battling. It's to have fun, not win!
4. Don't take huge amounts of actions in 1 turn
5. Declare to make a turn. That means if someone else's declared, you have to wait til they're done.
6. Make your ships small! If you already have existing ships that are too big, a good idea's to resize them and then detail/fix them up a little
7. Upload as .png!
8. A victim of rule breaking should be compensated with equal action
9. All in-thread comms can be hacked. If you want secure communications, use the PM feature or Steam.
Let's get started!

[I]"Admiral, we've engaged far orbit with the planet."
The Admiral smirks. "Good. Drop down a station pod. Let's get some guys on the ground."
"Aye, Admiral. I'll relay the order to the fleet to break formation and assume emplacement procedures."
The 2nd Navy Fleet of the Free Terran Confederation warps into an unknown system, over a red planet.[/I]

A large ship is seen appearing out of seemingly nowhere, it is hurtling towards the surface of the planet. All radio channels to the ship are closed.

A small Kyruth'za outpost comes into view. It currently has 4 ES-Class ships and 1 MPE-Class ships docked. There also appears to be an MPE-Class currently mining, and another on it's way to explore along with 2 ES-Class.

It has been a few days since Astratus Federation start exploring this system. Right now they found a desert planet deep in asteroid field.
A small exploration fleet have 2 Serpent class Fighters squadron, 4 Cobra class Corvette, 2 Virulisk class Destroyer, 1 Basilisk class Cruiser and 1 Lindworm class light carrier.
The fleet start scan this planet. Crew reports result.
"The planet have a volcanic activity, so it doesn't a dead planet at all. It also rich of iron. This planet should be great for colonizing if we terraform this a bit."
"Good result. Get ready to send an outpost down there."

An unidentified ship touches down quickly, unfortunately picking up a asteroid on it's way down.
IPK, If you're gonna put that lovely asteroid to waste, could you at least put some effort into that "Ship", so that it's not just a white box with red stripes? I know you can make something decent if you do your best.
When i "unpack" it from the asteroid.

Right, redid some shit.
The Kyruth'za force now only consists of 2 Narr'thyl Medium cruisers, 2 modified Zuthkrati frigates (Currently being used as construction ships), and 4 Fii'lanth Corvettes.
-One of the ships begins launching construction modules to the planet.
-The scouting party notices the Astratus fleet, and hails them.
[b]Greetings, fellow spacefarers! We have not encountered your kind here before. May I ask what brings you to this planet?[/b]
-A scout bot has been deployed.
Currently under construction:
Ship foundry: 10%
Rift stabilizer: 5%

Fleet just spot a meteor crashing on surface. but lucky, there's something slow it down. If not it would be catastrophic.
2 Corvette were sent above the crashing spot. It found a white square ship collided with asteroid. Crew think it may have a very powerful engine to slow the asteroid down.
Fleet hails to Kyruth'za fleet.
[B]"Salutation! We are Astratus Federation. We come here to explore this system for colonization. We wonder who you are?"[/B]
An outpost were sent down to surface successfully. Now the carrier is sending signal to call the mobile shipyard.
Mobile Shipyard incoming (1/3)
[b]"We are the Kyruth'za, we hail from the planet of Dae'lora. Our empire is vast and mighty, and we have made many foes due to this. We are in this sector only to obtain resources, to fund our war with a vile and primitively natured empire. Our goals regarding this planet may seem opposed to each other, but I am sure that we can come to a peaceful agreement to this in the future. For now, would you mind telling us a bit about yourselves?"[/b]
[B]"We, The Astratus Federation. We are from planet Astrum. We are currently explore and expand our empire. We found that not only us are only space faring specie. We want to establish alliance. But there are some hostiles whom threaten us that need to clean up first. So we have to find more resources and set more colony to fight against them."
[/B]Mobile Shipyard[B] (2/3)
[/B]
(Err, sorry, but I do not understand one part, are you asking for an alliance between us? Just rate agree if you are)
Seeing as you agreed, the TPN accepts.
(Oh, TPN = Kyruth'za, i just like to mix it up a little by using the race name instead of the faction)
Declare
The Lieutenant looks up from his seat at the command deck of the F.T.S. Liberty, to the Admiral
"Admiral, recon frigates have picked up a TPN Ripper Fleet.
The Admiral frowns.
"Rippers are never around by coincidence. Send the data down to the forensics bay."
"The recon team said they're in resource drafting protocol"
"I wouldn't believe it for a second. Ripper fleets are a warrior class, not workers."
"We're not technically at war, they may have mistakened us for Adrius's fleet, Admiral."
The admiral nods. "Open up a comms line."
"Comms are active, sir."
The admiral sits up in his chair
[B]"This is Admiral Centus of the Free Terran Confederation, come in.[/B]

The craft,along with the asteroid,cracks and falls apart. From the ruin rises a apparition on thin struts. It looks like a radio device. It broadcasts this:
We are the Gruxorinsk. We come in peace. Actually we didn't come directly yet because the driver forgot to stock up on fuel.
Notice that i actually shaded for once. Look at the ruins and see that they look much better in compare to my previous things.
[b][TRANSLATED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE][i]
"Captain, incoming transmission from the Terran fleet."
"Ah, they've finally noticed us, have they? Very well, we shall hear what they have to say."
"Greetings, Terran. This is captain K'lirr-dath of the Dark fleet. We did not expect the enemy to contact us. What does it want?"[/i][/b]
[editline]16th January 2013[/editline]
Wow, good job IPK!
(I dont wanna be a spoilsports, but you might wanna mirror the top part, the light is coming from the right)
"We're enemies with you Rippers, now, hm? Perhaps you're looking for the fleet of Imperial Admiral Danican Adrius.
We are not the Terran Empire, although we bare a similar name because we oppose them in the Systems of Gamma Centauri B, SS-402S, Alpha Centauri, Centaurus Major, Orion, and The Terran controlled regions of the Cairo Solar cluster.

[b]K'lirr-dath begins to worry. He's not been a captain for long and probably only got his position due to his family being Golden Nobility. He knows that he cannot fail his first hunt, if he's ever going to prove himself.
...He's glad that the hunt doesn't require a specific target.
"We see. Since we have a common enemy, we assume you would have no problem with forwarding any intel on Adricus to us. Now, would you mind disclosing your purpose in this sector?"[/b]

A Tau orbital Air Caste city situated in the planet's low orbit appears into view. It's color scheme and markings show that it belongs to the Sa'Cea sept, and the city serves as a home and training ground for the numerous pilots and workers of the Air Caste, being one of thousands of the facilities stationed throughout much of the galaxy. Surrounding the station is a small defensive fleet, featuring 4 Messenger frigates, 2 Merchant cruisers, and a Custodian battleship.
The commander of the Custodian, Lar'shi, hails all of the surrounding factions in their native languages.
[QUOTE][B]Greetings! We are Tau. This planetary sector is dedicated to and claimed by Tau forces, meaning you are intruding on high security space. State your business and the goals you hope to achieve here, lest you will make an enemy of us. We hope that whatever you wish to achieve here doesn't threaten us, and we hope this situation may be solved peacefully.[/B][/QUOTE]
The TPN sends out a response, stating that this is an unclaimed sector, and due to the presence of multiple factions, they cannot put a (respected) claim on it. Furthermore, the Tau are breaking a military proximity rule, which was set up due to the Tau being allies of the Terran Empire, an enemy of the TPN. The TPN declines sharing any information about their presence, and instead demand that to know why the Tau are here.
Also, rift stabilizers and ship foundry finished, but i can't declare tonight. Please don't attack me in my absence.
Tau forces respond back, stating that their orbital colony has been established for the purpose of training and housing their naval forces. Further questioning and warnings are sent toward the TPN fleet, requesting immediate information on their prime objective. Further refusal will encourage them to open fire.
(If you choose to spark conflict, greg, I won't attack until you are ready to participate.)
[IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/6CNZ6u2.png[/IMG]
Fixed the shading.
A small Gruxorinsk ship gets near the planet.
[b]"Declined. We refuse to bow down to supporters of the Terran apes, and we will be glad to get rid of ones foolish enough to engage in war over a single sector. Attack if you must, we will be waiting."[/b]
They send a request to their allies to send reinforcements over.
Furthermore, they ask the Free Terran Federation for extra information regarding Tau ships.
Kk, 'sall for tonight. See ya!
Lar'shi personally responds back.
[QUOTE][B]Arrogant fools! We have tried to reason with you peacefully and logically, yet you refuse to cooperate! You are prepared to lose hundreds of both of our people's lives in this war, simply because you do not wish to tell us your objective. As far as we are concerned, you are now a threat to all life in this star sector, and we will take action. You WILL become apart of our Empire, and if it won't be through peaceful alliance, it will be done through use of deadly force...[/B][/QUOTE]
He cuts the transmission, sending orders to contact high command and notify them of the situation and to request reinforcements.
The orbital base is given orders to prepare for evacuation, should the situation arise to the point that civilians will be in danger.
I say, DECLARE!
[editline]16th January 2013[/editline]
Due to some technical difficulties, my declare is going to take a bit longer than expected.
[editline]16th January 2013[/editline]
Due to those technical difficulties mentioned above, I am unable to complete my declare. I will work on it tomorrow, as for now just consider a large sized asteroid mine.
[editline]16th January 2013[/editline]
(AKA UNDECLARE)
The Admiral pauses for a moment.
"Adrius is likely pursuing my fleet as we speak.
As for the Tau, they likely use Plasma based weaponry. Their shields are typically concentrated in various mobilized units."
Declare!
EDITED: Due to Sickness, Tiredness and General lack of Motivation, Undeclare!
Declare~!
Declare after Diago. I've got a lovely idea in mind.

The vessel plummets into the surface of the planet and digs its way in leaving only the top part exposed. Within minutes of landing a bright beam is shot up through the atmosphere eventually turning into what appears to be a flare just above the planet. The light source is highly radioactive and cannot be viewed unless through special light filtering glass.
