Sorry, but I think I'm going to have to deny your app.

And what percentage of your military is that many?
1 out of 40 is a very small amount in the eyes of my nation, unless we were undertaking a planet occupation. The standard amount for such anundertaking would be 1-5 trillion units. Would you prefer we treat this confrontation as a military occupation than a war?

I would prefer you understand the sheer incomprehensible size of a quadrillion. I mean, how would you even land that many people? Supply them? Transport them? As Polis said, it wouldn't just be a logistical nightmare, it would be somewhere in the darkest deprived depths of logistical hell to muster a force that large.

My nation's pretty mess up honestly, and I have approx 1/6 of my population serving in some capacity (Everyone ages 16-26) and even then total manpower is only about 10 Billion. I admit that's pretty fucked, but I would never dream of bringing that entire force to one war. Especially one with so little riding on it.

Your misunderstanding of numbers disturbs me, so I'm denying your app.

Landing ships are on board the starships.
Transportation sships hold the landing ships.
Food takes up little space. A single gel packet (ketchup packet sized) can keep one going for 2-5 days. Munitions are manufactured on board the ships.
And i did not bring my entire army.
What misunderstanding. I misunderstand what you believe i misunderstood.

You would outnumber my man power, my allies man power, my enemies man power, the man power of all nations neutral to my cause combined, and not just a little bit. I'm fairly certain you'd outnumber us exponentially.

The point I brought up about bringing my entire force was simply to illustrate the point that even if I had sent my entire army to fight, I'd be outnumbered by your force of one quadrillion. In fact, I'm confident that if I mobilized my entire army, my allies had mobilized their entire army, my enemies had mobilized their entire army, and the neutral nations had brought their entire armies, I'm still fairly sure your force would outnumber us all combined.

Your ORBAT is the definition of number wanking. You have so many men you could literally just walk and keep walking until your men covered the entirety of the Nova Rimworld in fucking layers, if that's not Over Powered I don't know what is.

You ignored the part of my post where i offered to send only 1 trillion soldiers. I admit this is still a large number compared to your 1.75 million, to send any less would be considered a diplomatic mission, not a mission of war. That's 1 in 4000 studies being sent to fight in this. I believe that my tech level may be higher than yours.

Am an early tier 1 nation, and that has nothing to do with number wanking. Even if you offered to bring a trillion soldiers your force would 444,444 times as large as mine of 2.25 million (Including Droids).

For the 3rd time, your app is denied.

You know, i fit best in the neutral section, but there's too many of them there.
So...

Perhaps i could be a rogue nation here for observation, not battle (unless you guys attack me).
We'd be mercenaries, if you will. With only 1 million trips stationed for intelligence gathering, mercenary work, and militant observation. No G.U.E.S.S. or B.E.E.F. included.

Explain to me why a force of 1 million soldiers and 500 ships is denied.
Seems pretty reasonable if you ask me.

The Ecumene itself is probally sending abot 2-4 million troops into this (given the "Combat troops" in my factbook has to be multiplied across all the ships I have in the system already and what I have inbound.) Even with my Composer weapon and the other Forerunner tech I'm using, a quadrillion is exessive.

You thought 40 Quadrillion was an acceptable amount, so that raises the question, what else do you think is acceptable? I'm afraid of you godmoding, so that's why.

That's my final word, so don't expect me to change my mind.

What the hell do you think I can Godmod in with a million soldiers and half a thousand ships.

You told me just tell you my trip numbers. That is what i did. My whole army is 40 quadrillion, so that's what i put.
It's called a misunderstanding, dude. You didn't tell me to put the units i am designating for this battle. I understand now, the number is 1 million units 500 battleships (assorted).

Nation Name: The Gaian Empire
Government Type: Empire
Primary Species: Humans
Side: Rouges


Reason for Joining:

The 42nd Gaiae Expeditionary Fleet found the Ka’arjik system and saw it as a perfect opportunity to extend the reach of their imperium. Upon cursory surveillance and intel-gathering, it was clear what their objectives were:

1: Gain weak/expendable allies that will not pose a threat in the event of a betrayal, or can be persuaded to accept Gaiae rule.
2: Establish foothold on outermost planet(s) and begin small-scale military operations
3: Contact nearest Border-Expansion Fleet able to respond with sufficient force
4: Wait out arrival of Border-Expansion Fleet, continue with military operations, but prioritize preservation of life
5: Upon arrival of Border-Expansion Fleet, escalate engagement
6: Drive out or destroy all opposition
7: Hunt down or subjugate any stragglers
8: Fortify all borders and planets
9: Begin creating infrastructure and prepare system for colonization
10: Colonize planets and wait for further instruction OR in the event of no new orders, resume standard procedure

The 42nd then identified that unfortunately, nobody would be aiding them in this battle. The TTO and NRA were assumed to be unwilling to accept subjugation, and the MA was identified as being unable to coexist with the Imperium.


Tech Level:
-Around tier 9 (likely somewhere in the low-mid range) on Excidium Planetis's scale.
-Sort of level 6. All magic users that they know of are either: killed to prevent any possible challenge to their rule, or drafted into the "Warlock" subdivision of the Centurion program, which further lowers their numbers due to the high amount of washouts.
-Type 11 civilization, but only barely. Have only reached out into one or two other universes due to the absurd amount of resources and power required to actually breach through to another universe.

Has technologies including:

-Power Armor with advanced visor technology able to switch between various visual spectra (thermal, infrared, low-light) and inbuilt tools such as grappling hooks and short-range boost jets
-Armor-based and ship-based energy shield technology
-Bionically and genetically enhanced super-soldiers (Very costly and relatively low in numbers, due to the difficulty and time required to create one, as well as the high standards they must meet)
-FTL drives (Self-explanatory)
-Laser weaponry (Though, to be completely honest, laser weaponry is at best a sidegrade to projectile weaponry.)
-Statherograph or ‘hardgram’ melee weapons, allowing for quick drawl and withdrawal. (Basically, I replaced the ‘holos’ greek root from hologram with statheros. Hardgram is a colloquial term. If you’ve ever seen hardlight from the Halo series, it’s basically that. I just didn’t want to rip off the name >.>)
-Ship-based particle-beam weapons


ORBAT:

Terms:
Centuriones- Centurions. Deadly super-soldiers with specialized power armor and weapons deployed when surgical strikes or complete decimation is required. Can be seen either leading squads of milites or more frequently, operating in squads of 5.
Milites- Legionnaires. Loyal volunteers with a weaker and less-versatile version of power armor (fewer inbuilt tools, no energy shielding). Usually leading auxiliary squads to keep them in line, but can be deployed in a squad lead by a centurion if it requires a certain amount of skill, but not important enough to warrant an all-centurion squad.
Auxilia- Auxiliaries. Standard expendable foot soldiers from the draft. Equipped with standard weaponry and combat fatigues (think, standard military gear plus a trench coat designed to deflect laser fire) and vacuum rebreather masks (for hazardous environments/space). Good for dying in droves or employing firepower en masse.

The ground was cold, as ground was wont to be. Marcellus appreciated that, it was good for things to be in their order. Then, Marcellus thought, surely not all ground is cold. Some ground is warmed by a sun! this, of course, was a revolutionary thought. He needed to tell someone! Marcellus picked his face off of the ground and examined his surroundings. At first, he noticed, there was a cacophonous ringing sound piercing his eardrums. He winced, not understanding, before he made another connection in his brain. That’s my hearing! But why are my ears…? Spurred on by this thought, Marcellus took in his surroundings. They were awfully blurry, and very… they were doing a lot of flickering red, he noted. Marcellus scrunched his eyelids together and opened them once more to try and get a better look at things. Grey was his first thought. He tried to get up, and heard the shuffle of his clothing as his hearing started to clear. Afterwards, he heard a great many snapping sounds, like a switch being broken in half. Wait, why are there snapping sounds? Marcellus blinked once, then twice, then took in his surroundings again. He was in a city, surrounded by broken glass and rubble. He was in an alley between two large buildings, both made out of the same uniform grey material. The ground beneath him appeared to be grey as well. Looking up, he saw the sky was overcast. Grey, grey, grey! he shouted mentally. All of this grey-ness was starting to get to him. He continued looking, directing his attention to the entrances (or were they exits in this case?) to the alley he was currently residing in. They alley opened up on either end onto black roads with dotted yellow lines in the middle, and more infernal grey buildings and ground! Marcellus took a step forward, and felt his foot nudge something, causing the something to scrape across the ground, offending his ears once more. Marcellus looked down. It’s a… laser rifle. That’s it. Marcellus picked up the rifle, not finding anything wrong with doing so, and slung it over his back. Maybe he should move.
Suddenly, Marcellus found that he couldn’t move. He was stuck, as if pinned. He looked down, fearful, as he found his arms unresponsive to his commands. He frantically tried to move, and found that he still could not. He tried to scream for help, but no sound came from his mouth. What is happening, he shouted in his mind, What’s happening to me?! His answer came in the form of a sudden burst of light and someone… yelling? What?
Marcellus opened his eyes, and saw red, and smelt smoke.
“Marcellus! Get out of there!!”
“W-w-wha?!” Marcellus looked around, and saw flames licking at the edges of where he was sitting, and there was the Legionnaire and two of his teammates, keeping a sheet of metal above him, rather than letting it fall. It was then Marcellus understood. He looked to the side, and found his rifle lying where he found it. He grabbed his rifle and rolled out from underneath the metal. Looking around him, he saw grey walls and grey ground illuminated by a harsh red glow. Looking up, he saw an overcast sky pierced by flashes of light that could only be AA fire. Examining the exits (or were they entrances in this case?) he found one blocked off by the ruined wreckage of his flier. He saw bodies. Before he could investigate the incident further, his Legionnaire called out to him.
“It’s about time! The only reason we found you was because of you yelling about something being grey! Now let’s go, we still have a mission to complete!” Marcellus turned to his squad leader and nodded.
“Yessir, Auxiliary Marcellus reporting for duty, sir.”


If there are any changes that need to be made, or any concerns you have, please voice them.
Looking forward to joining the RP :)

I think lot of people who is joining actual factions, don't know why that factions exist.

Troaet faction is there to stop the droid and Vektran menace (such a bullshit, I'm an adorable nice nation!! :lol: ), while at the same time, trying to re- establish the old Rimworld goverment (I don't know if they still trying to do this now, as I think there's nothing to save from that old nation)
The Mechanocratics are an Alliance of Mechanocries and Transhumanist States attempting to liberate oppressed AIs and Upgrade the system's populace.
The New Rimworld alliance are nations working to overthrow what remains of the Rimworld government. (However, the nation listed there, is not rp here anymore (seems like), and even like that, he was defending me, a little strange xD)
And Rogues are the ones that do whatever they want.

So, Gaia, I believe your side, is Rogues. That desn't mean that joining the Rogues don't allow you to join with the New Rimworld alliance, but as you explained on your reason of joining, what your nation wants from this sistem (basically all), means you are a rogue nation)

Anyway, let's wait Landfish so he decides. The choise of faction per se, will not make your app be rejected, don't worry ;)

Ah, okay! Thank you very much. I read a bit more and it seems that would be the case. I'll update my app.

That's my final word, so don't expect me to change my mind.

What the hell do you think I can Godmod in with a million soldiers and half a thousand ships.

You told me just tell you my trip numbers. That is what i did. My whole army is 40 quadrillion, so that's what i put.
It's called a misunderstanding, dude. You didn't tell me to put the units i am designating for this battle. I understand now, the number is 1 million units 500 battleships (assorted).



If I put the total number of my soldiers down on my ORBAT for this RP, it would FAR surpass 40 quad. Also, if everyone else could understand from the start, why couldn't you?

Have you role played often or no?

I don't know what tech tier to label myself as.

Oudland wrote:Nation Name: The Seventh Empire of Oudland

Government Type: Absolute Monarchy

Primary Species: Kadathi

Side: Rouges

Reason for Joining: The Oudlanders are in the midst of completely dominating their own system and, as such, are constantly accumulating vast numbers of slaves in their conquests. The Seventh Empire stretches along three planets, Oudland being the planet of origin for the Kadathi, and is unable to support life-forms deemed as "base", or "epsilon" due to the large populations of the Empire. The Seventh Empire requires more planets to colonize with slaves and military bases to launch new military campaigns.

Entering the conflict as a stranger, the Seventh Empire has issued an open contract to the factions involved, offering several legions of terrible creatures and Imperial Soldiers to any side willing to cede a portion of the system to the Empire to colonize. Failing an alliance or a brokered contract, the Seventh Empire seeks to establish dominance in the system anyway.

You want to stop with the troll attitude bs? You are starting to piss off more and more people on here.

How about you learn how to properly rp before saying anything else? I mean, to be honest, you are pretty bad at it. And if you want to use the "I am using a phone defense." Take some time out of your day to look up other Role players who use their phones and see how they are drastically better than you.

You don't even take the time to address what others are saying IC, you barely explain what you are doing and what your intentions are. You don't even provide general details. You just slap something together and you make it sound slightly good and even still, they are borderline one liners.

So again, do you really think that you have a place to get on anyone's case? :rofl:

I agree, it's starting to get rather annoying.

Explain to me how genociding a defenseless population of people is in any way supposed to be funny. My leader may hate the humans in the Ecumene, but even then she'd soon exile them then kill them.

Not much since she still has to return to her world and deal with a population that is savage, intolerant, and wants to kill every other species on Thessia. Since she is honor-bound by an oath to her mother, she can't just get rid of them either.
