Too brief a glance at an uncertain future.

Soverign States

In Character Thread

OOC Thread

Mankind was always curious, always searching, always discovering. They wanted to reach for the stars and, eventually, they did... Years ago, humanity searched for a new haven close to home. They found it after decades of searching, exploring and star-charting. There, in virgin lands of Keres, they built new civilisations to call their own. But they were not alone. Empires from all around the galaxy found this planet. Alliances formed, empires rose, tensions tightened. It was here that the first war with other denizens of the Galaxy loomed its shadow over humanity, sharpening its claws as the first starships were built.

Keres was a young planet that has yet to form any sentient life of its own. But it bore its first fruits of intelligent life when other empires of the Galaxy arrived to claim it their own. And so, with colonies sprawling all over its surface, the planet's fate is forever to be changed. But will it be for the better, or for the worse? Join the many races on Keres in their struggle for planetary dominance. We you just be another footnote in history? Or will do you actually stand a chance to be victorious?

This is an RP about the simultaneous colonisation of the Planet Keres by multiple different galactic powers and their struggles for planetary dominance and/or coexistence. Warfare, deception and alliances will be the key here. But who could you trust?

Acts of aggression will be the standard course, anything from a border skirmish over some livestock to airspace intrusion can lead to a declaration of war. Watch your step, because one wrong move can send you packing for your homeworld with the enemy nipping at your heels. What's your ultimate goal anyway? Why did you come to this world? To annexe Keres or to simply live peacefully with us? And why should I trust you? Why should I believe what you tell me?

Basic Rules

OP and CO-OPs are in charge here

No Godmodding (of any sort)

Do not be a prick OOC. Trust me, the boot hurts more than just your national leader.

Short posts are fine, but no one-liners. (Yes, I know the irony of this.)

Having fun is not optional, but not at the expense of others. (ie, trolling, flaming, griefing, godmodding, etc.)

Map and Warfare Rules

No army formation larger than 2 million may participate in a single battle (ie, laying siege to a city). Military campaigns, however, may be up to 50 million combatants large.

No controlling the outcomes of another player's attack(s) or diplomatic venture(s). Do not control the reactions of another player's soldier(s) or diplomat(s). Always give another player the chance to respond, do not go in with ten posts for every one they put out.

Do not, under any circumstances, shrug off an attack like it didn't affect you at all. All actions have an opposite and equal reaction. You may win a battle and not sustain any losses, but the logicists of your army are guaranteed to be affected, ie, you'll have to resupply them to be at full fighting strength due to spent ammunition, morale problems, etc.

Maximum amount of active troops is 250 million, so you can conduct 5 max-strength military campaigns around Keres at the same time, but no more than that. All other personnel you may have need to be part of your reserves.

Everything has its strengths and drawbacks. You nation has a starship the size of a star? Fine, but you aren't landing that at all and you will need to supply it with fuel daily.

No calling reinforcements from home. Your colony is a big boy, independent(-ish) and strong.

Each colony has its own sovereignty from each other. The dark blue areas on the map are international waters, which are not under the jurisdiction of any nation.

Destruction or construction of terrain is prohibited. What I mean by that is you can't chip land off the map or terraform land in the middle of the ocean, but you can build/destroy landmarks, hills mountains, etc.

Lastly, everything takes time. Amass an army? Anything from a day to a month. Erase a mountain? A couple of weeks or years. The Maginot Line took 9 years to build! And it didn't work anyways!

*Standard NSII rules still apply
**Rules may change anytime, I will try to inform you when they are updated, but in the event that I don't, It's your responsibility to check. (Don't worry, I don't drop the hammer until you've really, really annoyed me)

Alliance and Treaty Rules

Alliances are formal unions between colonies. Once a colony is part of an alliance, it cannot go to war with other members of that alliance. Examples of an alliance; The British Commonwealth, The Axis Powers.

A treaty is a legally binding agreement/document between two colonies. Colonies can still go to war with another country that's part of a treaty. Examples of a treaty; NATO, The UN.

An FT RP where logic and reason hod sway? I'll all this a tag and app as soon as I can get access to a computing device.

Tagged for interest. Question: Is it alright if I play as an empire from a nearby system? If not, that's fine, I can just create a colony for myself.

Empires have colonies, no?

I do believe the whole premise of imperialism is to have colonies and exploit the absolute hell out of them. Or at least that's howthe Brits did it.

EDIT: I think I've misread the question. You want to ask if you can play as an alternate nation, is that right? Sure thing!.

You didn't misread it. But I'll take this to mean I should just make a colony.

Yes, you make a colony, but which nation you choose to be the motherland is your choice, be it your nation or another you made up.

Ah... Okay. That makes sense. I once created an isolationist galactic superpower nation who only stayed on their own planet unless invited to colonise a planet by the intelligent life of that planet. It turns out that it was too pacifist for its own good. :lol:

And a Quick Question for you: Are you allowed to take territory you won in a war?

Artifical habitats? Yes. Asteroids? Yes. Whole systems? If I can. Land? Nope. It either gets glassed or turned into a tributary, depending on how human the residents are. Bottom line, we use drones to strip mine it to build more ships.

Report on the State of the Staetadi Colony

By Dame Kearen, Duchess of Staetadi, by commission of Her Majesty Queen Eris Tethys II of Spindle

-GENERAL-

Full Nation Name: The Star Kingdom of Spindle

Short Nation Name: Spindle

Nation Leader: Her Majesty Queen Eris Tethys II of Spindle

Colony Leader: Duchess Kearen of Staedai

Government Type: Constitutional Monarchy - Important note: presence of assassin's guilds has been restricted in order to improve political stability.

Capital: Taerii

Territory: The southern half of the large island in the east and just on the equator, plus a number of asteroids spread throughout the system. Apologies for lack of an image.

Preferred Map Colour: Pink, please!

Colony Population: Twenty-four million, across three main cities.

Species: Dearyn - basically non-evil insect people.

Language: Aetheran

Chance of Revolt: Yes

-ECONOMY-

Ideology: Social Market on the whole - Important note: many businesses on the colony are heavily subsidised by the government.

Economy: Decent - see attachment 03-14-D: Spindlean Economy - an Overview for reference.

Manufacturing: Strong.

Agriculture: Decent - see attachment 03-09-K: Fabberies - an Overview for reference.

-MILITARY-

Commander-in-Chief: Dame Arianna Selene, Archduchess of Erebus

Military Strength: Two thousand personnel are in the Naval aspect of the Colony's military, with twenty-two squadrons of warships at their disposal. Of these, two are comprised of sixth Fleet warships. As a result of this, the ground-based aspect of the Colony's military contains almost forty-four thousand combat personnel, and an additional two hundred and seven thousand purely ground-based support staff. Attached to this are two Cornaia-class Resupply Dreadnoughts on loan from Fifth Fleet, with attendant nanoswarms.

Service Branches: Technically speaking, the Navy is the only branch present, providing both the Legions and the Fleet to defend the colony. In practice, the Legions and the Fleet act as separate, if incredibly well-jointed, branches of the military, with separate rank structures as a necessity of their different media. Interestingly, system-wide command falls with the Legion for the defence of the colony, with General Kraene in command of both the Fleet and the Legions for the system, with Admiral De'Straeta as his second.

Standard Infantry: See attachment 11-19-C: The Legions - an Overview, with reference to the Skirmisher Configuration.

Uniform: See attachment 11-19-C: The Legions - an Overview, with reference to the Talaria.

Primary Weapon: See attachment 11-19-C: The Legions - an Overview, with reference to the Harpe.

Sidearm: See attachment 11-19-C: The Legions - an Overview, with reference to the Eurytus.

Spare Gear: See attachment 11-19-C: The Legions - an Overview for a non-comprehensive list.

Strengths: Versatile and powerful, Spindlean infantry has been noted for its tendency towards mobile warfare when compared with other nations - a fact probably explained by its relative sparseness in the battlespace. In fact, the smaller numbers of infantry which Spindle can bring to the field was a major spur to the development of battlespace nanites, both in the individual infantryman and their weaponry and armour and in the form of Nanitic Autonomous Combatants such as the Wraith and the Warlock, which are nowadays so integral to the war effort.

Weaknesses: Spindlean infantry suffers from the same problems it has always suffered from: fragility and a lack of resilience. Although stealth and speed can help keep a soldier alive, when a soldier is actually hit the probability is that they will be incapacitated: this is a simple fact of the weapons technology troops will have to face in the battlespace. This fragility is further compounded by the lack of resilience in infantry formations - without meaningful reserves to call upon, small losses can cause units to be split up and redistributed.

Army Vehicles:

Main Battle Tank:

Self-Propelled Artillery:

Strengths: Spindlean armour forms the backbone of the Legions, designed to appear out of nowhere and devastate the enemy without warning before either punching through to threaten rear echelons or simply fading back into the distance. In order to achieve this, Spindlean armour use of Spectre fields and high-yield weapon, as well as partial counter-grav, to facilitate surprise, application of extreme firepower and rapid disengagement where necessary, allowing for vehicles which arrive and leave like so many ghosts, leaving little more than corpses and wreckage in their wake.

Weaknesses: As with the infantry, armour suffers from fragility: although they are fast and well-stealthed this comes at the expense of armour which makes them vulnerable to almost any weapon larger than an assault rifle. In fact, particularly high-powered sniper rifles can shoot the pilot out of a Scorpe in a single shot, should the sniper be capable of hitting the thing. This is, as with the infantry, compounded by a lack of any real reserves and the unfortunate tendency for Spindlean armour to be outnumbered in most of their engagements.

Space Force:

Cruiser: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Aello-class Light Cruiser and the Celeano-class Heavy Cruiser.

Battleship: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Stheno-class Battleship.

Carrier: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Beroe-class Escort Carrier and the Pitheus-class Strike Carrier.

Destroyer: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Orthrus-class Destroyer.

Frigate: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Cerberus-class Frigate.

Starfighter: See attachment 11-32-Q: The Spindlean Navy: an Overview, with reference to the Enyalius Strikefighter and the Pitheus Interceptor.

Dreadnought: See attachment 11-03-F: The Spindlean Navy: Structure and Objectives, with reference to Dreadnoughts.

Strengths: Long-range and offloaded targeting capabilities means that Spindlean warships are capable of striking targets effectively at extreme ranges, in theory at least, and the ability to unload enormous salvos at the mid-to-short ranges helps balance out the relative difficulties at energy-weapon ranges. The use of smart materials in ships allows for rapid refits and repairs and also in-combat regeneration. The use of soft A.I. means that crew complements are drastically smaller than those of many other navies, allowing for more ships per unit of manpower.

Weaknesses: Ships have massively weaker shields than most opponents, which are worse than useless against kinetic weaponry, which means that Spindlean ships often rely on destroying the enemy before they can enter the energy-weapons range. There is also a noticeable paucity of said energy weapons in the fleet mix, which combines with the first weakness to make the fleet very bad at orbital confrontations, where the planet in the way makes it harder to engage at long-ranges but the requirement to hold the orbitals prevents simply opening out the range.

RP Sample: This is probably the best example I have, although this gives a better indication of my nation's style and technology.

Commander-in-Chief: President Vincent De Maser
Military Strength: (No more than 15% of your colony population) 2 million
Service Branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, Space Force
Standard Infantry: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the ... /id=687671
Uniform: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the ... /id=687671
Primary Weapon: http://orig15.deviantart.net/2686/f/201 ... 8lh9om.jpg
Sidearm: (If any) http://i.imgur.com/pE1LnvY.jpg
Spare Gear: (If any) Grenades, repair beam, flash lights, first aid kit containing nanobot injector
Strengths: Energy shielding, enhanced strength, faster speeds, extreme endurance, etc.
Weaknesses: Infantry usually are only suited to combating other infantry and light vehicles, otherwise larger vehicle formations can cause infantry units to suffer heavy losses.
Army Vehicles:
Main Battle Tank: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the_interstellar_federation/detail=factbook/id=688044
Infantry Support vehicle: (If Any) https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the ... /id=688044

Self-Propelled Artillery: (If Any) https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the ... /id=688044
Strengths: All armored vehicles are equipped with energy shielding, allowing them to survive large amounts of punishment and are comparatively fast for their armour. They also pack heavy armaments to boast as well, forming a formidable fighting force.
Weaknesses: AFVs suffer from being more complex than it's enemies and thus harder to maintain on a far flung colony like Keres. Any battle damage is going to be harder to repair than their adversaries. They also are more volatile. A nasty hit to the ammunition (which is mainly plasma) can cause a massive detonation, injuring anyone too close.
Space Force:

Dreadnought: (If Any)https://www.nationstates.net/nation=the_interstellar_federation/detail=factbook/id=630870
Strengths: They perform well in all areas and are very multi-role. They boast a massive amount of firepower and defences and carry a large complement as well.
Weaknesses: Interstellar starships are quite large and thus harder to maneuver around a battlespace. They are however not lacking in speed compared to other nation's starships.

RP sample: (If you don't have one, just show me a short example of your writing. Also, if I've RPed with you before, don't worry about this so much) Remember the good 'ol Vortexian Civil War?

Just clean up the app a little (Delete the stuff in brackets), make sure those links work. But other than that, you're good to go. Welcome aboard, me hearty.

Is this where you wanted your colony, Sir?

No, the piece of land above it, to the right.
