Depths of Space (OOC, OPEN, FT)

[Spindle]

Hey, Spindle, do you mind if that's what the more 'united' government is called? The Imperial Species Commonwealth? I plan for Imperator Vorr to retire away with Eris post-War and such, so he can be with her. By then, their son will be 16-ish and of age to take over as Imperator; on top of that the Remnant will have gained much territory. So I figure that should be the name of the new 'united' government between our nations. Or, something along those lines.

Sure. I'll kill Armillius off or have him wounded at Ostia.

[Korhal IVV]

Eldari - Genetically modified humans with psychic powers
Naga - Snake like humanoids
Hydrons - Mysterious, highly intelligent elemental beings of water
Purifiers - Personality constructs, they have the memories and personalities of humans that died prior to their creation encoded within them.

History - a bit
The Megacorporation was established in the center of the Milky Way as a trade hub for the whole galaxy. It is one of the suppliers of the weapons of the Colonies, vastly improving them whenever they can. 8 companies that have built their own facilities in the center of the Milky Way decided to merge into 1 great megacorporation for unity and better stock holding In all actuality, they have become an independent entity instead of a simple company making profit. They supply weapons to many human factions, as well as they build ships for clients.

Alright, but I think you need to understand that you'll be more helpful in the post-war. Because Ostians would only buy their own weaponry and military equipment. Also I would like to know more about the species? Like how did they form, what is their physicality, and etc? Just some more information to work with, besides why did these things come together to form a corporation? Was it just solely for profit?

Highbreed post tomorrow. Gotta think about a few things.

Eldari were created by scientists in the Project P.S.I.. They are pretty much the same as regular humans. The only difference is their psychic powers.
The Naga resemble large , bulky snakes with two arms. They slither with their lower body. The Naga's homeworld has destroyed by a massive catastrophe, and they offered their services to the Megacorporation... In return for asylum.
The Hydrons were found by mining expeditions by the corporation, and they seemed to be interested in creating better and newer tech so they joined the Tri-Tachyon. They were seen in the wandering planet Aquarius, which is 98% ocean. They resemble rivers or puddles while dormant;hiwever, they turn into ghostly, floating hulking humanoid looking beings of water with two arms and a single large foot that is constantly spinning like a whirlpool. They have two vague glowing eyes.
The Purifiers were built to replicate the many late, yet highly skilled human officers of the corporation that died from an attack. They are humanoid with yellow "eyes".

Eh, I'll wait for other's approval. But I have a feeling that you're going to be an economic bully. Also regarding those Naga, they sound awfully similar to another race in the Ostian Imperium, the Schlange.

Alright. Considering that'll be a combo of both our governments, we should share control; you can control all Spindlean diplomats and government members. I'll do ze Taari. As for the Emperor, that right belongs to Khronos/Eris' son, Gawain Vorr. Meaning since he's half/half depending on scenario or what's going on, one of us will RP as him.

Yep. I might debate some of it, but I don't think it'll be much.

[The NAR]

*rages like Angry German Kid because the other people are ignoring this lol*

Can you please explain what are Eldari, Naga, Hydrons, Purifiers? Also can you explain more of what exactly you are? It seems like your nation is not exactly a nation but a corporation. Also you need to explain how the company formed, what was it before? How does this maintain contacts? Also keep in mind that in this phase of the rp, not many people have met each other. That goes especially for NAR who I think should wait-ish for the post-war so that everyone can know each other.

Also, NAR why do you really want to get involved by having an ancient old being that somehow knows everything about the Highbreed? I mean there are other ways to garner influence. Like invest in the reconstruction of Ostia covertly? I mean it would be strange if there are secret things built into the newest structures and buildings? Sure you won't influence the war, but the Ostia government is going to pay you for the reconstruction work and you can use that money to errm....*cough* *cough* Besides you'll probably help rebuild some of the infrastructure and add some rooms off the building plans.

Orson, when you mean the group, did you mean you want all of us to follow you to the bridge? Because that would make alot more sense if you specified.

Ashur's story is merely for depth of the character and to give a more historical insight to Atlas as an organization, it doesn't garner influence as much. Though, I'm fine with you saying that Atlas contributed to the reconstruction of Ostia.

This is going to be fun to RP next thread.

GENERAL:
NS Nation Name: Void (Spindle is Co-Owner)
Nation Name: The Imperial Species Commonwealth
Flag: Imperial Commonwealth Joint-Flag.
Location: Spindlean-Taari Joint Territory.
Government Type: Constitutional Oligarchy: A combination of the two former governments. The Emperor is the supreme military commander, and in emergency situations has supreme governmental power as well. The Imperial Parliament governs legislation and is bicameral: The Admiralty Council is a military-based legislative branch made of the seventy-five Taari and Spindlean Admirals selected by the Emperor or recommended by those who have served with or under them. The Parliament House has a population-based democratic election; each planet getting representatives based on popular vote and population. The judicial branch is controlled by the Admiralty Courts, which has only nine members of the Admiralty Council within it when military cases are concerned. The Imperial Courts handle judicial concerns that are non-martial and effect the Commonwealth as a whole. However, all of these positions for the most part are selected by the Emperor or by those who have already had power in government; democratic elections are somewhat limited.
Economic Ideology: Fascist Social Market: A combination of the two former economies that are extremely dedicated to capitalism. However, the economic system is predominantly like that of a social market economy with fascist leanings due to Taari influence.
History: After the Taari Remnant and the Spindlean Commonwealth met, two prominent figures within them wed: the Imperator of the Remnant, and a Lady who was heir to the throne of Spindle. This allowed for government relations between the two to meld well together. Shortly after their son was born, the Highbreed War had begun. The Spindlean Commonwealth were the main participants, the Remnant joining shortly after to aid their allies. However, the War was somewhat hard on the Taari; they lost some ships as well as some of their very own people.

In the years following the War, the Imperator decided to retire away with his wife. Thus, the throne was given to the next person in line: Emperor Gawain Vorr, at age 18. Though he may appear young, he was prepared by his father and mother his entire life to be Emperor, as well as a strong military leader. Shortly after this, because of his hybrid status and his status overall in both the Remnant and Commonwealth, he was to also become the Emperor over the Commonwealth. Deciding that because their governments were similar in some aspects, Gawain as one of his first acts as the Emperor of Two Nations, united them. The Imperial Species Commonwealth was formed after a long year of deliberation and debate between the two governments. This essentially combined the governments and made both peoples under one banner peacefully.
Population: 1.008+ Trillion (Combined Population). ~1 Trillion Taari; 8+ Billion Spindleans.

SPECIES:
Taari: Tall, imposing hairless humanoids. Cobalt eyes and skin. Thanks to Spindlean technology no longer restricted to life-suits, instead rebuilding them as powerarmor.
Humans: Spindlean Humans. Self-explanatory.
Hybrids: Though uncommon, they can happen. They often look either more like a human than a taari, or vice versa. Depending on the genetics among other factors. Hybrids are also sometimes called 'Tarus' by the Taari, a word which means 'Combined.'

ECONOMIC:
Ideology: Fascist Social Market; predominantly Social Market.
Economy: Superb.
Manufacturing: Thanks to Taari and Spindlean engineering combining efforts; Superb.
Agriculture: Thanks to Taari agriculture and Spindlean assistance; Superb.

MILITARY:
Population: Predominantly Taari-based due to sheer population difference: 30-50 Billion [Peace Time], 200 Billion [War Time].
Branches: The Taari Armada: The Taari's Fleets remain weaponized and militarized, and thus are still used for the military.
The Spindlean Navy: The Spindlean Navy is still strong, but thanks to Taari upgrades and building slightly more automated ships, it is also quite a force to be reckoned with.
Standard Infantry: Predominantly Taari in specialized Powerarmor.
Standard Weapons: Varies.
Standard Ship: Taari Warship, Taari Battlecruiser, Taari Dreadnought.
Weapons: Varies.
Strengths: Taari are experts are warfare and military tactics. Spindleans are excellent spies and saboteurs, as well as good with stealth; they're also good at politics.
Weaknesses: Taari are bad at politics, in some cases. Spindleans are somewhat fragile in initiative.

There we go. I just realized that government is going to be extremely biased due to Taari to Spindlean population.

Oh, Spindle; tell me what to edit. Or just copy-paste and edit the app where you wish for edits to happen.

Yes, as is what happens in a war.

I haven't made any major changes, just small touch-ups here and there. In terms of the military side of things, I imagine the Spindlean units being used as specialists in their fields alongside the heavier and more diverse Taari forces. I don't know if that's the way you see it, but it makes sense to me.

[The Moscow Metro Red Line]

I am thinking about renaming Ostia, which is more preferable? The post-war Ostian government is going to be transferring from an Absolute Monarchy to a Constitutional Monarchy. The plan is to transfer power from the monarch to the democratically elected executive. Kinda like American government but with a royal family alongside it. I'm trying to come up with a name that asserts the power of the monarch yet acknowledges the other species in the Ostian fold.

The Ostian Imperium (Original Name)
The Autocratic Ostian Protectorate
The Ostian Democratic Republic
The Alliance of Autonomous Democratic Republics - Ostian Democratic Republic (Inner Core Systems)
The Kingdom of Ostia

Also if anyone is interested in investing into Ostian Reconstruction, here is a list of what is the post-war Government's problems that the next monarch is going to need help with.

- Rebuilding of Ostian Infrastructure in the affected Systems
- Improvement and devlopment of the Ostian domestic economy
- Promotion of Ostian products abroad (Ostian Grain, Solar Reactors, Bio-technology, and communication arrays)
- Possible sale of surplus military equipment (Still being heavily debated due to the possible repercussions it may cause in the future, doesn't want to have its own weapons used against it in the future. The main point of debate is the release of battlesuit technology which the Ostians have a great deal of pride in. They'll probably make export versions but the risk of the other nations out-developing Ostia is the main reason of concern.)
- Research and Development of Space Colonies (Planets were lost and destroyed, space colonies are more viable rather than conquer new terirority at the moment)
- Suppression or inclusion of former Sovik Union systems (The Sovik Revolutionary Front is going to be alot more active due to the tremendous loss of Ostian manpower due to the war)
- Maintenance on "the Dome" (If the Highbreed are not destroyed but contained, this refers to the numerous building and maintenance of fortifications around the Highbreed Systems as well as defense systems).
- Research and Development on modernization of Military Equipment (Probably going to work with Tagail Federation due to their own experience with mecha/Battlesuits)

Also NAR, you could just add context do a bunch of malcontents. I mean, I think it's fine the way it is, but I think you should focus on building power during the war and getting as many 'grateful' friends as possible without revealing true intentions. I don't think you need to include someone like Ashur who already knew the Highbreed prior since we are trying to bring this Highbreed war to a close.

On an random note, what should the forum be called? Depths of Space: The Uncertain Future? Depths of Space: The Price for Peace? I don't know, give me suggestions.

1. I like the Alliance of Autonomous Democratic Republics

2. I added in that our Naval Forces will end up backing you with military power, since we really need some friends, and since you're Humans, you're a good place to make them. I scrapped the idea of Ashur being an ancient human but he does have access to substantial records from ancient civilizations who preserved information.

3. I like "An Uncertain Future"

[The Greater Gambia]

Depths of Space: New Moon?

[The Moscow Metro Red Line]

Depths of Space: New Moon?

First thing that popped into my head

[The NAR]

So after reading through what's going on in the Grechtingkeit System, I've come up with a plan for Atlas. We'll have our Fleet come in to back up the Ostian Fleet in Space, help push back the Bioships. I have an awesome entrance to make too

[The Greater Gambia]

I think the subtitle should be something space related.

[The Orson Empire]

I am thinking about renaming Ostia, which is more preferable? The post-war Ostian government is going to be transferring from an Absolute Monarchy to a Constitutional Monarchy. The plan is to transfer power from the monarch to the democratically elected executive. Kinda like American government but with a royal family alongside it. I'm trying to come up with a name that asserts the power of the monarch yet acknowledges the other species in the Ostian fold.

The Ostian Imperium (Original Name)
The Autocratic Ostian Protectorate
The Ostian Democratic Republic
The Alliance of Autonomous Democratic Republics - Ostian Democratic Republic (Inner Core Systems)
The Kingdom of Ostia

Also if anyone is interested in investing into Ostian Reconstruction, here is a list of what is the post-war Government's problems that the next monarch is going to need help with.

- Rebuilding of Ostian Infrastructure in the affected Systems
- Improvement and devlopment of the Ostian domestic economy
- Promotion of Ostian products abroad (Ostian Grain, Solar Reactors, Bio-technology, and communication arrays)
- Possible sale of surplus military equipment (Still being heavily debated due to the possible repercussions it may cause in the future, doesn't want to have its own weapons used against it in the future. The main point of debate is the release of battlesuit technology which the Ostians have a great deal of pride in. They'll probably make export versions but the risk of the other nations out-developing Ostia is the main reason of concern.)
- Research and Development of Space Colonies (Planets were lost and destroyed, space colonies are more viable rather than conquer new terirority at the moment)
- Suppression or inclusion of former Sovik Union systems (The Sovik Revolutionary Front is going to be alot more active due to the tremendous loss of Ostian manpower due to the war)
- Maintenance on "the Dome" (If the Highbreed are not destroyed but contained, this refers to the numerous building and maintenance of fortifications around the Highbreed Systems as well as defense systems).
- Research and Development on modernization of Military Equipment (Probably going to work with Tagail Federation due to their own experience with mecha/Battlesuits)

Also NAR, you could just add context do a bunch of malcontents. I mean, I think it's fine the way it is, but I think you should focus on building power during the war and getting as many 'grateful' friends as possible without revealing true intentions. I don't think you need to include someone like Ashur who already knew the Highbreed prior since we are trying to bring this Highbreed war to a close.

On an random note, what should the forum be called? Depths of Space: The Uncertain Future? Depths of Space: The Price for Peace? I don't know, give me suggestions.

What about Depths of Space: A Shattered Galaxy? It would reflect the state of the galaxy after the Highbreed invasions and the subsequent period of pan-galactic warfare that will ensue.

[The V O I D]

NAR, you do realize we're going to have the Highbreed pull a Pyrrhic Victory over Grechingkeit. They win the system, but the losses and the planets being destroyed are essentially how they 'lose.' And then after that we're pretty much timeskipping about a month or two ahead to begin preparations for the Battle of Ostia and the Battle of Ziosh. In terms of the Ostians, they and their allies win the war. But for the Ostians, the overall war was also a Pyrrhic Victory. The Covenant seem large enough wherein the turn-around for them wouldn't do much other than encourage their space nazi agenda and eventual military dictatorship persona.

Meanwhile, the Imperial Species Commonwealth, the Tagali Federation, the Cho'Dosan Covenant, and the Greater Tsveri Empire (to be introduced in the sequel thread) will be the new 'galactic superpowers.' Ostia will be like the USSR just-before total collapse; a dwindling superpower that hangs on the brink. Sorry to do that to ya Moscow, by the way.

And as for the Highbreed post-War... well, since there appears to be plots for a mediator, I feel as though eventually they may end up like a hive-minded zombie-Germany; their territory surrounded and essentially artificially controlled by their enemies and they have to deal with enemies on both fronts to do... basically anything.
