[Greater Istanistan]

Feel free to collect income.

Oh, wonderful!

Oh, wonderful!

Indeed. 705 credits, so happy.

Hey guys,

Finally back from vacation/work conference.

Saw the new link, so any spots open or no?

I don't even have 200. It's damned annoying starting so small.

Quarians are.

The Quarians and any if the indies are open . . .

Ok, will try to have an app up later tonight based on what factions are open or whatnot.

Custom ones allowed this time allowed or no?

Yup. You'll have to pick one of several 'archetypes' though. They're on the OP.

Edit: Also, is it possible for base income to be changed by random events and stuff, since if a small faction grows larger having a tiny base income (so if any of the independents or the Rachni carve out a decent empire in the Terminus) would put them at a disadvantage even if they have the same infastructure as a bigger (starting) faction.

Hah, starting credits and worlds are far more important.

[Ralnis]

Will Shepard be NPC or will it be that the same as the other threads but with more regulations or rules?

NPC, IIRC. Shep thread was a cool idea, but slowed everything down too much.

And Arch was too damn stubborn to cut it loose and free up the RP for the Arrival.

I wish it could have been allowed, but with a few characters and not a large cast, maybe some people to change other characters people do not like.

Hey, we reserved the Asari for you, but it got a little late. Sorry.

We've got the Quarians open, along with a much improved series of openings for independents. You could set up camp as a Batarian warlord, a renegade Human colony, a free Geth faction, a non-Republican Asari colony, or a pirate group. I also think that several factions may open up in the near future due to reservation without apping.

Regardless, great to have you back. I've kept you on the admin team, so if you're interested in that we'd be glad to have you in on this.

We've made a couple structural changes, including adding some slightly different buildings and systems. A little bit of the nomenclatures for the ships has shifted. I've drastically revamped the upgrade system for ground units and limited the number of upgrades ships can have, preventing total stupidity like Arch's navy and making upgrades actually interesting. I removed the different unit sizes, as they were stupid and inefficient. One can form a corps by bundling divisions together. A Recruitment system was added to prevent total spam on higher-grade ground units. I removed some of the massive rainbow lettering and major grammatical errors, although fully revamping the OP's a WIP.

It's still mostly the same Factions, though. Glad to have you back!



Also, you missed it, but Arch is gone. He got sent off to South America, and left me in charge for the foreseeable future.

I have ASSUMED DIRECT CONTROL OVER THIS ROLEPLAY.

Lol.

BROTHERHOOD!

[Brotherhood Steel the 2nd]

Yes, yes, I am alive and well.

So Arch in South America? Interesting. Hope he has fun.

Well I'll look over the various open factions and then I will app in later tonight.

In terms of random events, I will be far nicer to smaller factions due to their relative weakness and the statistical unlikeliness of some random disaster happening to them. Going easy is never an option, but things will likely go far smoother.

Credits, yes. Worlds, not so much.

It's a lot different to the Rachni in the last RP though, where I started with 100 less Credits but a 20 Credit higher base income, everyone else's starting incomes were much lower (around 20-60 Credits, since we couldn't buy infastructure at the start) although I did start in a much worse position, smack bang next to Illium.

[Ghondra]

So when will the Reapers Come?

[Lunas Legion]

Join the Batarian Club!

I came up with the idea for a 'Terminus League' y'know. I'll send you rough plans for its evil hierachy by faction.

I would like to note my name on the front page is spelled wrong it's Seno Zhou Varada not Shen Zo Varada.

Alright, I'll be heading off to work soon here. I have a 9 hour shift tonight so I won't be back anytime soon. Enjoy my last post for the day as best you can.

Ok, just wandering to let you know that the Pack frigates have stealth mode so just wandering how the ship's were able to detect them(maybe are cancelled from the enhanced scanners)?

Ya dude you should be able to detect them and even if you do go after my pack my sensors will pick up your ships and I'll just ninja my way though your space for all time.

Sort of how HYDRA had that massive bail event last RP, correct?

And hopefully disasters scale by size. Last RP around midway -10 Credits or +20 Credits wasn't much of a effect. Also, will there be random events for the first month?

Wait I was trying to figure out how stealth ships( like yours) are able to be detected by Illium even though their should not be any way to dected an apporaching anomoly via a Mass Relay( through my knowledge) unless you were leaving. I don't even know what are you talking about me being "ninja" because of that upgrade when I could just look out side my window.

Ah crap I meant could NOT be detected. My bad bra

Still, I could just look out my window to find your ships if they are coming my way.
