Create a planet and invade others V7: Shenanigans...IN SPACE! - General

Yeah, kind of. They mimic behaviour of other species, to maximize the chance of friendly relations. They're actually really agressive, as you can see from the attack on the Necrons the moment they threatened them.

[CODE]The Leader makes another transmission directly to the Ansalai Republic[/CODE] [QUOTE=The Leader]We thank you very much for your assistance, Ansalai Republic. All citizens of Merter are extremely grateful for what you have done, including me and my government. We request that you dock the ship at our Station in Lertaforenger, the closest city to the wreckage, and drop off the survivors there.[/QUOTE]

What a nice bargain. I hope your comp gets fixed so you can get back in the game. Also The Earthlings have a ship tech level a few notches above the CUE in weapons and armor grade. Although of course they have their faults too. I'll probably explain those later. One of their most prized technologies however is Intergalactic warp drives. Like the ones used to open that warp rift from the Milky way. However they're burned out now, and that rift is unstable, near collapse. Anyone gonna declare? :]

[QUOTE=Milkdairy;36297192]Anyone gonna declare? :][/QUOTE] I'm not going to, but [B]THE POSITION IS FREE SO SOMEONE SHOULD REALLY DECLARE[/B]

I gotta go now, but when I'm back, I'll be able to declare again :D

As ourselves can say, a dark energy crystal eroded from the remains of the diabolic Oneiroi, this abomination still causes chaos and disgrace even after being destroyed. As happened centurions ago, this dark energy will consumpe this whole sector! Or, God forgive us for those words, this whole galaxy! Our Engineers possess a powerful energy grappler that we could use to stop a part of the crystal. But without YOUR effort, we will not live that long![/QUOTE] ---//--- I don't a give a shit If you guys don't like It, but I'm feeling pretty satisfacted by the red orb thing I made out there. Won't forget this thread, my pixel art raised pretty much since I got here.

[QUOTE=gregmasterx;36296410]Hey, no, I'm not alright with that, diago. Make your own sprites, you can't just copy my ship and say you suddenly have all, or any, of my tech. Seriousely, you didn't even touch my ship with that gas (How could gas even copy it?), but somehow you have a better version of my ship, plus all the functions it has, like rift-drives? I'm fine with it if you want to use it for RP reasons, and maybe combine ship styles as you go or something, but my tech is off-limits.[/QUOTE] Well obviously its not exactly the same, this is for all purposes - A tin can with air in it. It has no technology other then the basics needed for space travel. And obviously I intend to sprite my own ships after this one. And also, after the Vega entered the cloud it gained a minor level of sentience.

Pictureless: The Tumbrian fleet contacts the leadership of [B]Merter[/B] [QUOTE][B]Hello. It has come to our attention that your planet and government is one that is relatively small, and weak. Quite exposed to other stronger civilizations. We strongly request you become a protectorate & ally of the Tumbrian Empire and its colonies. Denial of our request will require further council with the Tumbrian senate. We strongly urge you accept our request.

Declare. [URL=http://cubeupload.com/im/CU3SJm.png][IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/CU3SJm.png[/IMG][/URL] Whilst the scout is awaiting a response from a cruiser a large structure shoots through the clouds and into orbit. . [REDACTED]'s first International Trade Station has been launched!

You warped my Super-Carrier and Battleship instead, I'll fix it though. Declare [editline]12th June 2012[/editline] [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/p5ltHm.png[/IMG] The two Destroyers warp directly into the center of the anomaly. [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/u8BbPG.png[/IMG] The Destroyers were in mass overdrive, increasing the volatility of their warp drives, when they entered the center of the anomaly they exploded, causing the crystal to overload in energy. ____ Gameplay Note: This might be a good time to implement the multiple star system idea. Perhaps this could create a massive tear in the fabric of space allowing even quicker warp travel to other star systems.

I'll do something about the crystal when I get home. Hopefully some more declares get done between then.

declare [editline]12th June 2012[/editline] [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/EEhkep.png[/img] The Taents have been waiting for a special occurrence for a long time. Seeing the chance for them to make their presence felt in the galaxy, they send two ships to Merter to investigate for any sign of life forms or riches.

Declare [editline]12th June 2012[/editline] [b]Ansalai Reconnaissance Vessel to Taent Ships[/b] [i]Please state your purpose for approaching Merter. We are currently performing salvage for the Merter government following an unknown phenomenon which displaced a large segment of their planet. They are suffering massive losses and do not need any more trouble.[/i] [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/IgocKO.png[/img] In other news, the Ansalai managed to scrounge up enough materials for a Resistance Class Destroyer (one large ship). It features a forward-facing plasma array and forward-facing railgun designed for either large-scale ship combat or planetary bombardment. Along the spine are powerful lasers capable of destroying small craft like fighters. In terms of defense, there is an inverse high gravity shell surrounding the ship, which renders all but the largest of plasma and solid projectiles useless, as well as the standard alloys of the Ansalai. [editline]12th June 2012[/editline] The Ansalai are currently very low on supplies. It is not possible for them to construct another large ship until they find a planet to exploit for resources.

We will give all we can provide, in return for a friendship between our races. [/I] I'll move my ships away on my next declare.

hey? I'll re-add my ships to the new picture, they seemed to have been after I declared and Ogre declared after me. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/inPlq.png[/IMG]

The shockwave caused by the crystal's ceasing to exist further de-stabilizes the rift to Earth. The mining barge fills its cargo and goes to drop off the supplies. The artificial Core is created, as well as the ship modified to hold a terraforming module. It begins terraforming, and will render the core a habitable (Although at beginning lifeless) planet. the fleet regains communication with the Terran Capital ship "Ares", which lost contact during warp. It was identified that there was a [B][REDACTED].[/B] it will warp safely in 5 turns.

Wiat wait wait, So I'm bed ridden for four days because of the flu, and now suddenly someone breaks lore and surrounds the Centrum Universa with lasers? Now you guys know why I don' like these threads anymore. Before, there was established lore and people didn't fuck with the established plot but now it's like it's free reign because everybody wants their own "special story" I'll fix this, but nobody fuck with the Centrum Universa without PMing me first and making sure it's okay because I have plans for it.

Pictureless Declare [CODE]The Leader sends a message directly to the Ansalai Republic[/CODE] [QUOTE=The Leader]This is The Leader of Merter, speaking, sending a message to the Ansalai Republic. I think I speak for everyone living on this planet by saying that you have greatly aided us in our time of need and that without you, we would still be in chaos. Thank you very much for your efforts, and we hope that your Empire continues to prosper and remains peaceful and safe. As a token of our appreciation, we present you with a gift. The Holy Sphere of Marternax. [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/mULv69.png[/IMG] I hope that our planets can become great allies in the future, I would be willing to send entire fleets just to protect your planet from harm. But there is one problem. Our species doesn't know much when it comes to gravitaeh science, we don't know much about it, so, we were wondering, would there be a way to turn Merter into a sphere again? Any way at all? Even if it costs us millions of dollars in resources?[/QUOTE] [CODE]In Merter culture, they believe that a sphere is the most divine, holy object to ever exist, and they practically worship it, believing that anything that is a sphere is safe from harm. They have special spheres designed to protect the different major regions of Merter, Marternax was the region that was destroyed by the meteor.[/CODE]

DECLARE [I]A planet-like entity emerges from the fading Force Energy explosion, the powerful red radiation keeps pulsing from It...[/I] [I]It could be said that the IMA's planetforming operation began It's final stages.[/I] [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/9xFSLj.png[/IMG] [I]Meanwhile, the Aerthia population Is successfuly brought to the planetforming site, some of the engineers starts "rock cracking" the asteroids for ores, the Ticks stand still waiting to be poured with precious resources for building the future planet's structures.[/I] [I]... It Is readvised that a very small part of the Aerthian population remains at Neyak.[/I]

Woah, you completely misunderstood what I meant. [quote][i]IMA com central, come in. You seem to have misunderstood us. We simply wish to change Neyak's orbit so that we may build another planet there, you may keep Neyak.[/i][/quote] Note: The planets created by the TPN are only suitable for living, and do not posses any large amounts of minerals.

declare [editline]13th June 2012[/editline] [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/ZMexWL.png[/img] [i]Having seen and heard about all of the commotion going on to the top right of the galaxy, a small fleet of Cartesian ships sets off to see what all of the bother is. The first order of business is the scanning of 'Aerthias Remnants' for technology or valuable minerals, seeing all of the heavy militarisation by the Centurum Universa they decide it would be best to keep a distance. Mining continues on the asteroids.[/i]

Pictureless Declare: [b]Ansalai Parliament to Merter Leader[/b] [i]We are deeply grateful for your holy gift and your declaration of allegiance. The Sphere has a place among the greatest artifacts of our homeworld. As for the matter of returning your planet to a sphere, gravitational mechanics is not the answer. While it could technically work, it would require nothing less than cracking the surface of Merter to make it happen. The only practical answer the Science Council could find is filling the excised area with asteroids and other space debris. If the material of the planet itself is holy (we do not know the workings of your religion, after all), then the excised area itself could be used to fill it in. Just be aware that your mantle forms an incredibly strong compound when cooled in low gravity, which makes breaking up that material vastly difficult -- even more so than breaking up metallic asteroids. We will send the data used to determine this along with this message.[/i]

Ragamuffin, why did our match on the PW forum die out? It was shaping up pretty nicely, even though my last turn was a bit silly with that pose and all.

[QUOTE=gregmasterx;36313461]Woah, you completely misunderstood what I meant.

I can't even think how'd I'm going to correct this mess... >_>' Really, sorry about that. ... By the way... Can I suggest some shading on those asteroids? A little clearer colour sprayed on It will do the basics.

[QUOTE=SoSicklyAwesome;36316755][CODE]The Leader of Merter sends a message to the Ansalai Republic[/CODE][/QUOTE] That shouldn't be a problem.

DECLARE. [IMG]http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/5186/picture1me.png[/IMG] Terraforming is finished, and the new planet is named "Terra Minor", respectfully after Earth. The Earthling personnel at the Centrum Universe pack up as the terraformer, along with the colonists contained inside land on the centric continent, which will later become the planet's capital. The INS Ares is at imminent warp speed, and begins to activate its quantum warp breakers. The Terrans realize the situation at the warp, and their ignorance. Perhaps they're already missing Earth, and perhaps they slightly lied to the Tau. Every Earthling knows even this far in the future, technology was developed to avert MASSIVE weather changes. Most countries effectively recovered their sea-swallowed land. But war and poverty is nothing but prominent. The fleet contacts [B]The Tau[/B]. [QUOTE][B]Hello. I know this is a lot to ask, but you MUST send one of your smaller ships into the rift we came out of. It is about to collapse, and We MUST NOT lose contact with the other side. Our ships are too far away to get to the rift before it closes. Please. [/B][B]If you will, we will supply you with ores and other materials.[/B][/QUOTE]
