Yes, those edits seem to be in order. Nux can gainsay this when he gets back, but I think that'll do - we'll pencil you in under the Renegade Human Colony template, minus the Frigates and extra-planetary infrastructure, and with a free Research Station. I'll workshop the pros and cons with Nux tomorrow when he has time.

Oi, Nux didn't give the Salarians a direct starting credit rating. It just says ask GM. Permission to continue as I was, and use 4000, based on the Asari's starting 4200.

Hrm. Hadn't actually noticed that. 4200 would be a bit low, what with the time-lag that has occurred. We can probably swing you in at 6500 or so, with a minimum of 1500 spent on your military.

Is this 6500 in addition to the 5k bonus you mentioned in your post to me last page?

Ah, no - I meant 6500 total. I've been looking at the regular factions, and that should work to put you in as a mid-level Citadel Space power.

Faction: Salarian Union
Leader (No party members): Dalatrass Narra
Citadel Council member Y/N or N/A: Y
Brief description of diplomatic relations: Allied with the Turian Hierarchy, Asari Republics, and their protectorates. Participating in the conflict within the Terminus, assisting with the establishment of a DMZ. Outwardly in opposition to Omega and the non-Citadel System Alliance, they are more receptive to both governments in back channel negotiations.
Military state of readiness: 25%|Selective Mobilization, due to complete reorganization of the Salarian Union following Narra's ascension

History: The Salarian government, since at least the formation of the Council in 500 BCE, is called the Salarian Union. It is a labyrinthine web of matrilineal bloodlines, with political alliances formed through interbreeding.In many ways, the salarian political network functions like the noble families of Earth’s Medieval Europe. Structurally, the government consists of fiefdoms, baronies, duchies, planets, and marches (colonization clusters). These are human nicknames, as the original salarian is unpronounceable. Each area is ruled by a single Dalatrass (matriarchal head-of-household) and represents an increasing amount of territory and prestige within the salarian political web.

In a controversial neck-to-neck election for the position saw Dalatrass Narra claim the position by a narrow margin in a recent election to determine the leadership of the Narra bloodline. This caused a major dispute with the other claimant of the family Lindra, of whom the former Dalatrass belonged too. A low-level politic broke the unity of the Union's maternally linked families, as blood lines took sides, reenacting a bloodless by economically devastating Salarian, War of the Roses.

Narra proved herself a pillar of calm in the storm, earning the subtle support of those who sought a speedy resolution, including the public recognition of the Asari Republics as the Salarians sole sovereign. Major finance institutions began a counter-propoganda campaign in favor of Narra, that successfully quashed the bastions of dissent on Sur'Kesh. And once the STG silently aligned themselves with the Dalatrass, all hope of abdication were dashed from the Lindra bloc. Currently, the Union is in the middle of Reconstruction, though they are still participating in the goings on in the larger galaxy.

@ Electic: Glad to see the app coming along. Two things: Korlus is a player faction at the moment, so you’ll want to compare your holdings in the Eagle Nebula to theirs to make sure you haven’t overlapped. Also, I completely blanked on your starting Dreadnoughts - you should have 16 with free Ewar upgrades.

@ Everyone: I’m going to try and get an actual monthly update out tomorrow. No promises, but that’s your timeframe for the update.

by **Segmentia** » Thu Aug 15, 2019 7:58 am

Also the Eagle Nebula is part of the Citadel-Omega DMZ.

Cool beans. I've updated it all after looking at the player faction. Currently, the Eagle Nebula is purely claims with no Salarian military forces or civilian structures there.

Anything on my pros/cons?

Indeed. I’m in a meeting now, but once I’m out I’ll be crunching the update.

I'm going to a rock concert today so no post from me today, but I'm pretty sure I can do it within the next week.

@ Electic: I ran your numbers and you look slightly under budget (54 Credits) but that's probably just a numbers error on my part. As such, I'm happy to accept you officially.

@ Ralnis: Gotcher Frigor Collective stuff right 'er.

Endlessly Adaptable: Used to harsh worlds, with the biology to match it and the cultural flexibility, the Collective remain Vorcha. And Vorcha are nothing if not adaptable, able to make use of even the most marginal conditions and places. The Collective treats all worlds (save moons) as operating at one ecological tier higher.

Uplifted: In many ways the science and intelligence of the Collective is her defining feature, unlike her martially-focused cousins. As such, her institutions of learning and discovery are much better funded and productive compared to those of even the galaxy at large. Research Stations produce 2 bonus RP at no additional cost.

Ephemeral: Though the richest and most valued members of the Collective can maintain their lives for some time, most of the Vorcha that make up her rank and file still suffer from the curtailed longevity of their people. As such, long term investment and the more commercially beneficial elements of the galactic stage make little sense to the Frigor, for they will rarely live to see the results. Urban Areas and Spaceports cost 25% more to construct.

Primitivism: Their precursors couldn't even grasp spaceflight, let alone the more advanced technologies of the universe. Though the Collective is struggling to redress this error, their ability to implement matters considered rudimentary by other factions is rather sparse. Medium and Heavy Vessels take an additional Month to construct. Shipyards cost 50% more.

And there's your update. Sing out if I've forgotten anything. I still have some secret IC information to distribute, but that'll be coming shortly.

Woot! Looking forward to posting.

Unless you had sensors I didn’t notice, minimal.

I don't.
I'll think of something.

Darn, looks like the new Salarian holdings are going to cut off my expansion...
Any advice?

Explore or claim worlds not yet claimed

Hmm. Well, it is worth noting that most of the Salarian claims in your area will be unworkable as long as the DMZ exists. It is one thing to say they claim the world, another to actually hold it.
