No that was against the New Repbulic. One of the Super Star Destroyers was captured by the New Republic, and that smaller one on the middle is a New Republic design.

It's from the Essential Guide to Warfare. That book has lots of great artwork.

RIP Zsinj, he died too young.

Though I love the name "Imperial Remnant", which arose indirectly from Zsinj's death.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Although there are a few points that I'd argue with, mainly the whole no guns things. considering that its been three hundred years and that the technology is there, how has no group managed to reverse engineer a firearm to the point in which they can make basic smooth bore weaponry? sure, more advanced weapons require machined parts and industrial equipment which is a total no go, and I'm not saying that it would common place, but it certainly wouldn't be rare for most armies to have a number of crude smooth bore weapons. Gunpowder would likely be the biggest issue, but even then, its not even that that hard to produce some sort of propellant.

Heresy is like a tree, its roots lie in the darkness whilst its leaves wave in the sun and to those who suspect nought, it has an attractive and pleasing appearance. Truly, you can prune away its branches, or even cut the tree to the ground, but it will grow up again ever the stronger and ever more comely. Yet all awhile the root grows thick and black, gnawing at the bitter soil, drawing its nourishment from the darkness, and growing even greater and more deeply entrenched. Such is the nature of heresy, and this is why it is so hard to destroy, for it must be eradicated leaf, branch, trunk and root. It must be exorcised utterly or it will return all the stronger, time and time again, until it is too great to destroy. Then we are doomed.

I'm familiar.

True enough, but that depends on whose all tied up.

We actually have OUTBREAK: Homecoming planned for the future. It'll essentially be the first OUTBREAK, but revamped because we're all better writers now. Same setting as the first OUTBREAK, probably the same characters, maybe the same events depending on what we write. This however probably wont come out for a good long time since Gres still needs to finish THE ZONE, and then we're doing THE FACILITY. Don't want to force too many great RPs at once.

Also, anyone seen Aussie lately?

600 years, not 300, I should've made it clearer. It just took 300 for humanity to develop immunity to the disease.

You do make a good point though. I guess in some areas at least crude muskets would be used, pre-calamity firearms would still be rare as hell though.

That's unfortunate. It's always a shame to lose a longtime member.

Aussie and Terran are the only ones from the Original RP that have gone MIA, though.

Terran signed up for Bei's XCOM RP a week or two ago. Haven't seen him since then, though.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.

He was around for quite some time, but tended to disappear for long stretches.

In my experience, when people disappear for months at a time, they tend to not come back after a while.

Benuty, I still like the idea of your RP but I lost some interest because of too much AH. It's just personal preference I guess, but I don't really do AH unless the RP begins at the point of divergence. Also someone(sorry can't remember who) suggested a drug cartel RP set in 90s Latin America. I would volunteer to help with or even co-op that one if OP wants if it was set in modern South America, because there's so much interesting stuff happening there right now that could become involved in the plot.

As for my own RP plans, I want to try something where a group of people are cut off from everyone else in the world. I already suggested something based on Under The Dome but it might have activity problems because it would have a whole town as an open world, so there wouldn't be anything forcing everyone to interact. My alternate idea is some kind of dark sci fi where Earth falls to aliens and a colony ship is sent into deep space to find a new planet to settle. Except instead of heading straight to a planet, we'd all be crew members who have their own ideas and there would be ship politics going on as we fight for supplies. I guess I'm really interested in the isolation theme because isolation brings out the worst and weirdest in people and makes for interesting character interactions.

That's exactly what I'm doing, just got inspired ideas from those 4 IPs.

I dont know about it. Just dosent capture the eyes. Should look something like;

YOU COULD STOP AT FIVE OR SIX RP GROUPS, OR JUST ONE.

Perfect! Now you have the perfect group sig to annoy those who dont care about the group and turn off those with colorblindness! Everyone wins!
