Birth of a Republic OOC THREAD

We may need one, it seems

Thank you. [tag]

Regarding my last post, RL is about to rape my free time, so I may not be able to commit to this RP, and may have to pull out. I'm really really sorry is I do.

[Kreanoltha]

Cool, hope we don't need it.

[OMGeverynameistaken]

Kreanoltha, a few things.

It's rather godmoddish to simply say "WE SURROUND YOU AND LAUNCH A BILLION TORPEDOES". Generally, it is accepted that you should indicate that you are approaching the enemy fleet first, just in case they have, say, long-range weaponry or intend to make a change in formation. Or respond to your hostile approach in some way.

And, while your fleet may be large, 'billions' of torpedoes would occupy more space than we have to fight in.

A bit more detail would be appreciated as well. As it is, your post pretty much reads, "We shoot you with everything. Post losses."

Right, sorry. Amending... amended.

Gonna be getting in this action pretty soon, expect to see the II Strike Fleet (452 Ships) arrive on the side of the Imperial forces.

You'll never make it. The battlefield has two interdictors running. You won't be able to drop out of FTL.

[Lariza]

Was gonna drop out of Hyperspace several million kilometers from the battlefield and make my way towards it, basically the fleet was already in motion but due to the interdictors didn't get to their desired location.

[Kreanoltha]

Where did you get a three on one battle from? I'm fighting two fleets and the New Republic has yet to make a move.

[Lariza]

Bre divided his force into two, and since my own fleet is not close enough to distinguish individual ships it would appear as a three on one battle.

[The Matthew Islands]

It doesn't look like RL is going to rape me anymore, so I should be able to commit to it now

Now to try and respond to all the stuff thats been happening.

[Lariza]

Hmmm...

Just out of curiosity, what is the Empire's fleet forces if you don't me asking Peace For Men? And are there any more Rebel ships? B/c reading from your ORBAT that you posted it seems there are more ships.

[The Matthew Islands]

Peace for Men isn't here ATM, but from what I gather, the rebels attempted to invade another planet, but where met by Imperial forces, of an unknown size. It was a small fleet, with the bulk being the 200 transports, but we can assume that he is also using captured imperial vessel caught at the start of the rebellion to defend the Koranx system, the rebels main defence also seems to consist of captured space platforms orbiting the planet.

[Lariza]

I know the rebel's numbers, I wanted to know if the Empire had anything worth calling a fleet at all.

[OMGeverynameistaken]

TFU, great post and all, but are we just ignoring the FTLi fields? There's two of them, y'know. I don't know if they would affect your type of drive, but it might be good to ask first.

[Kreanoltha]

Yeah, great post, but he should have sent a subspace transmission. I could have reversed the FTL interdictors in my Zeus classes to reopen FTL.
@Russsia, Yeah I know mine knocks out hyperspace. It's one of the most common types out there.

[The Matthew Islands]

Why do you have to post so much in these FT threads. I feel like a moron with my paltry posts. Do you learn it over time or what, this is my first FT RP.

I know what you mean. I always feel like I don't post enough. I think it's a style thing.

[-Bretonia-]

I tried posting a response via my phone, but for some reason the iPhone doesn't seem to like any posts which happen to be larger in size than the reply box. It's not easy to write when you can't see what you're writing!

So I'm afraid it'll have to wait until I'm next near a computer. And sober.

[OMGeverynameistaken]

PFM isn't posting to day anyway, and we're waiting on him.

What the hell is Jenrak supposed to be. He has just swarmed in saying he's a Giant spider. What's going on???

A trillion actually. I'd like to see it stand up to plasma though.
