The mining facility is finished. The mining cruiser uses a tractor beam to move some of the other asteroids away for more room and then goes into idle mode. The facility moves itself back a bit using thrusters attached to the infrastructure.
The salvaging ship continues with the salvaging.

The Ansible has been finished! The scientists automatically set it up and hear a message originating from the star C-94-1-4!
[QUOTE] We hear you, High Command. This is Daruuk, a star 67 light years away. We must tell you, we have a small Warp Ship coming to your star, to explore. When he comes can you welcome him? [/QUOTE]
The warp ship starts to slow down to enter Capella

Meanwhile, in Krarkos' Eye...

The D.F. Mathkarr has been finished, the fleet, minus one small ships, groups together.
I'm guessing he's going from one system to another.

After a while, the Voyager doesn't seem to join the Tau fleet.
Instead, it had changed course and returned to Votto Prime to send more engineers down for repairs on the Magellan. It will re-arrive it Votto Prime in 1 turn.
They contact the Tau fleet.
[QUOTE]I apologize, but we've had to change course. Federation Space Command has told me they're deploying two Para-Orbital Defense ships to accompany you.[/QUOTE]

The Para-Orbital Defense ships deploy, and begin flying toward the Tau fleet.

I never said anything close to that. I made a sarcasm-laden joke about the people here. We all know that we are the images of gentlemen/women. Also, is that your declare, Milk?
Yeah, that's it. Go ahead.

[quote][i]Hello representative of the TPN Dark Fleet. This is the representative of the Arcturus High Command. We were recently attacked by a large spherical, and apparently sentient ship. It destroyed 3 of our ships and we're struggling to rebuild them in time for the next attack. It apparently finds humanoids chatoic and wants to destroy us. We did barely any damage it. It's currently near the outer asteroid field. We propose an alliance. You seem like friendly people and we could really use some help with this. We are also researching into Temporal Manipulation which will allow our ships to defend themselves much more effectively. This being will want to destroy us both.[/i][/quote]
[quote]Sure, Daaruk. We're always looking foward to making new friends. We can offer some technological assistance if you need any. It seems that you are quite new to warp technology. We're also researching into Temporal Manipulation.[/quote]

Hey guys, guys, guess what.
I completed another planet!
Now on to the next one...
I'm also working on a group of fleet designs for the TNSC, I currently have three designs. The strike force (designed for speed), defense fleet (guess what they do), and conventional fleet, (lead the main attacks).
[editline]3rd July 2012[/editline]
I'll try to upload a few pictures of my designs later.

[QUOTE] Temporal Manipulation? Is this a different way of F.T.L (Faster Than Light) travel? We are ourselves working on actually bending Space-Time to our will. From what our scientists say, we could basically make an artificial wormhole that would be permanent. Expensive, but permanent. Also, we have a way to transmit information FTL. We call it the ansible. With our ship equipped, basically our people back home are hearing this conversation in real-time. [/QUOTE]
Ships at Terra Amoris have been upgraded with a warp module. the Space-Time research is going well, scientists have managed to create a small wormhole with a life of .7 seconds. Not long, but it's progress.
Large ship (5 turns)
Space-time research (13 turns)
Pictureless Declare.
[quote]It can be used for that. The main purpose is shielding our ships but we need extensive research to optimize it for travel. It could make our interstellar travel instantanious. It needs massive amounts of power though. It's basically time travel.[/quote]
Research:
Temporal Manipulation [9/11]
Dreadnaughts [4/6]
Pictureless Declare
[QUOTE] Explain the shielding. Actually, a thought occured to me, considering shielding... [/QUOTE]
The scientists, listening to the conversation, started talking excitedly about Space-Time shielding. If they created a tear in spacetime around your ship, you would become very hard to kill. First of all, people would be seeing through the tear into a different area, rendering you invisible. Second, weapons would pass through as well, and lastly, ships would too. That would be the ultimate reconnaissance vehicle. They store it in the information folder.
[QUOTE] And time travel? How would that work? Would it basically make it instantaneous for you, or us? As in, you would still take the time of a normal warp, but it would appear to outsiders as instant? Also, I feel as if you might need a way to communicate with us faster than through our Warp ship. Would you like the plans of the ansible? [/QUOTE]
Goals:
Large ship (5 turns)
Space-time research (13 turns)
Pictureless Declare.
[quote]The shielding basically creates a field of temporal energy around the ship which sends incoming blasts into random points in time. We first tried time travel like this. We could never get a time ship to go to an exact point, and it couldn't come back either. The proposed temporal warp would create the same sort of field, but have it accelerate time in the space inside the shield. While in warp, half a second would pass to the outside world even if hours or days go by inside the ship.[/quote]
Research:
Temporal Manipulation [10/11]

[QUOTE] I see... But if you wanted to use it as a shield, or in case of a siege, could you reverse the shield? Even if said siege lasted a 100 years, you would only be about a day older. Get your techy folks to see if that would work. Anyway, good to meet you. Anything you need before our Warp Ship leaves? It may just have a scan of the system for our maps. [/QUOTE]
The Warp ship, while mapping, comes up to a large sphere. It looks ancient.
[QUOTE] Say...High Command? What's with the sphere? [/QUOTE]
[editline]3rd July 2012[/editline]
Imma be away from the comp for 2/3/1 hours.
Pictureless Declare.
[quote]That might be difficult. The sphere is an enemy of ours. We sent out a transmission earlier. Did it not reach you? It finds humans chatoic and wants to destroy us. It devastated our early colonial fleet.
It's very powerful, it took barely any damage from our defense. Even though those weren't exactly combat ships, we do need assistance when it does come back online. It's sentient. A sentient ship.[/quote]

The Golden Fleet arrives in the sector.
Their communication system appears to have been damaged by the warp.
This thread is going really slow. What's up, People?
(And on second thought I think we should've stuck to the normal system but oh what do I know)
[editline]4th July 2012[/editline]
Fuck, lame pageking
Pictureless Declare
[QUOTE] Hmm. Our crew may have a look at it. You say it devastated your fleet? We can get that message out. Our ansible, as far as we know, has a range of infinity. Try carbon dating it, look for its age. [/QUOTE]
The captain doesn't truly believe the capabilities of the relic. Just shove it in a black hole while it's in that form. But higher ups know better. They say to not disturb it, just take some samples and come back.

Hi, Milk.
Krarkos + pictureless declare.
The TPN Dark Fleet representative responds.
[quote]We accept your proposal. Would you allow us to deploy a rift probe? It would allow us to get to your system at a much greater speed.[/quote]
Okay, now going to work on my Krarkos declare.
Declare, krakos eye. That's right guys, i'm back for another round of galactic domination!
Oh my god we missed you.
:dance:
Erm, I'm declaring krarkos' right now.

The TPN fleet moves out to the unidentified fleet.
[quote]Hail, unidentified fleet. You have entered TPN Dark Fleet owned space, we request that you leave immediately.[/quote]
After all these years, they do even know what the golden fleet looks like.
(Hint for diago: This is a hail, your guys can actually see the captain talking.)

The Tau fleet finally moves up. It appears they are far too late to engage whoever that mysterious fleet was.. The Tau broadcasts a message to their allies.
[QUOTE]We are sorry to report this, but whatever force that was here seems to have disappeared. All that remains of them is a strange apparatus that we don't know the purpose of. However, we will examine this situation further, and we will try to locate wherever this fleet went, if it's still out there...[/QUOTE]
Advancements:
The production of an orbital defense system for Seginus is underway. (8 turns.)
Actually, crap my declare, really tired tonight, I will work on it tomorrow. I am trying a style I have never tried before. Also, I did not read your Krakos part in the picture-less declare statement. My apologies.
Capella Declare.

The Frigate activates it's video feed, revealing that they are both the same race which would hopefully hint at who they are.

Ah, It has been so long. We had imagined that we would never have been forgotten by the Dark Fleet.
