Buildings, yes.

Trade Fleet and Stock Market, where in Davy Jones' Locker is that stuff coming from?

A discussion I had with Arch long ago. The TFs cost around 500c(with I got from a loan) the frigates are like merchant vessels,each generating 2c. The stock market was a random event by witch I exploited to the fullest.

I told Istan I didn't want to start over and just continue with my company and since I was accepted,here you go. And guys I'm not going to build some massive fleet of drednaughts here. I'm trying to play the game economically anyway(it helps me with math). Also this sub faction can help others with infrastructure.

Another note about Trade Fleets,this creates a target for the warlord and pirate factions

It's a crazy high income source, it looks unreasonable. And we've done away with the pros and cons too, actually.

Feel free to contact me about any fantasy, sci-fi, or otherwise futuristic RPs, especially those involving aliens or other non-humans, especially if it is an original universe/idea. I also enjoy Mass Effect, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, and many other things that transit to roleplays.

You do that.. and I'll buy you both out. There is no way for you to be in debt at the START of a game like this. There are no mechanics for random-ass loans. If you need money you will probably have to borrow it from another player not take loans from the Fairy Princess of the Attican Traverse.

I was guessing a shipyard would be able to construct multiple ships at once. It's probably building something close to 100 ships at a time, mostly civilian freight ships that we never even hear or see anything about.

Uhm, what do you think everyone else who had started playing previously did? They lost all of their stuff and had to restart. Also, there are some parts of your App which do not apply to this RP and given that you stated some of the things in your app came from an event, then it is an unfair advantage as no one else has had the chance of acquiring this bonus because the event DID NOT HAPPEN. I hope you understand. This is not a continuation of the last thread, this is a new one.

okay in that case I will split production of my ships through various shipyards, and maybe go and edit my first post with all the ship orders so I have a few more fighter squadrons... need those.

and all the ships I am building are at the bottom of my first post.

okay, calculated the costs off ship production on my main planets, 20% for all of them. so I need to work out how much time that takes off for every class.

also how long do buildings take to build or is it instant build?

AFAIK it's instant.

HAMMER OF JUSTIC

Postby Greater Istanistan » Tue Jun 17, 2014 4:38 am

There needs to be some clarification.

1. Sorry for not removing the thing on advantages and disadvantages.

2. Kreig, if you want me to listen, thou shalt address me by my true title. That is GM. OP as a title makes absolutely no sense. I may be a little pedantic here, and I'm sorry if I'm being that way. I'm just slightly annoyed, and will address exactly why later.

3. Also Kreig, that's canon. All Mass Effect tech is based on Prothean science, so there is a great deal of conformity. Of course, some have slight advantages that can be expressed through roleplay - EG the Asari would probably have higher tech levels than other factions and as such an advantage, while the well-drilled Turian troops would be extremely unlikely to retreat - but overall things are pretty even.

4. Still to Kreig, if you don't like the game, that's fine. That doesn't mean that all the people who do like the game have to go and bloody well change it for you. If you're going to go on about how you need space to exhibit your flexibility, then either go have sex with Garrus because he's got reach or sod off and go try Mass Effect: The Dawn of a New Life. You'd fit in well there.

5. Sorry Hegemony Systems, but the rules have changed. Advantages and disadvantages are done. Unlike last game, in order to stop the stupidity that happened then in relation to Arch we've entirely axed the whole "transfer your whole damn faction over" thing.

6. Yes, you talked to Arch about this, and he was cool. I'm pretty sure that I'm not Arch, and I have slightly differing thoughts on this matter. You can go out and redo as an Independent Faction in the Terminus, but otherwise I don't think it'll fly.

7. As a general message, if you don't like the game, bring it up. However, don't expect everyone to immediately bow down to your word. If you find the game intolerable - and that would sadden me, because I honestly hope to give everyone a pretty damn good experience here - then don't clog up space. Either try our system out, as it's worked well in one of the more arguably successful roleplays of P2M in the past, or go try Dawn of a New Age, where you can piss around the galaxy with Shepard's apprentice, Max, and make up your stats entirely while riding on friendly Reapers.

I'm sure it's a good game. If you somehow detest us and all that we stand for, then try that one instead. Mkay?



Yes, building is instant, although that may change in the near future.

Istan, how do we claim planets ? Do we simply post sending some troops or colonist, and wait a month to add it to our list of planets.


Also, to all Terminus factions- If/When we create this Terminus Confederation, should we ask the council for a collective embassy or seat ?

If we did do the Terminus Confederation, it should be set as an equal counterpart to the Council, not with the Council.

You claim planets by landing troops there via a transports.
To convince others it is truly yours, build on it.
