First, me and Ralnis have to commit war-crimes on the Union State before we start doing war-crimes on others.

I'm starting to think that making a species all but immune to radiation was a good idea.

Well, I guess the Half Moon is in a decent position.

I’m not exactly sure how I’ll fit my little Federation into the picture. I guess I could do a first contact with the Aelids if someone hasn’t already planned that.

Edit: Scratch that, it appears that the OSA is already a big part of the interstellar community. Maybe some trade talks or something.

It wouldn't be an awesome war without a couple of planets being glassed.

Armonians spray their juice on the human, creating large, frightening burns on the human's skin. Human is now on ground in fetal position wishing for death.

Human: Please...have...mercy...

Armonians burrow into the human like rats, eating away at his flesh. They soon consume the man alive, leaving nothing but bones.


WCC, might not be wise to make to many plans for the IC when your app has not yet been accepted.

What sort of relations ties do you think your people would have with the Weseh Conclave or even others in the Orion Arm?

Not quite. We "know" there are other folks abound, but we haven't contacted them since we didn't want to be involved in multiple wars at once.

We can do 'first contact' if you want.

Exterminatus/First Contact war vibes intensfy.

Seems like your the only first rate power so far.

If a profit is to be made, I'll make it without hesitation. I'll play as the opportunist.

OP's grievance with it doesn't even exist in the app. We're genetically modified ants, not humans.

The 'made by humans' thing is the issue. Seeing as humans were uplifted by the Tagali ICly, it's his domain. He's also the OP, it's his rule you have to bend to.

He read it as me having a human nation, apparently. He referenced the rule on no human nations, because he thought I was a human nation. Simple misunderstanding.

Did he outright state to you that it was a misunderstanding?

He hasn't come online yet since I told him about it.

The wording looks like he didn't understand it, since he referenced the rule on human nations when I'm a nation of ants.

Perhaps but said nation of ants only exists because of a stated nation of humans which made them. Your people themselves are not human but still heavily make use of them.

I'm wondering whether i should make an entirely new race or just improve the one i used in the previous Orion RP, the Xarakh

Yo Ralins and Tau, we got to crunch together some kind of decent war or conflict story, which brings me to step one. Are we going to do this as an open war attempting to reconquer the region or is it mostly a large raid toward one of the region's main population centers?


Also, Turmenista and Tayner, what kind of relations do you think our respective states would have at the beginning?

It will be an open war attempting to reconquer the region.

Starting as a surprise-attack on the outer inhabited worlds I suppose? Those would have relatively small garrisons and have no defensive orbital stations, often also no warships stationed in systems other than a patrol group that might happen to come through while making sweeps of the outer systems and no-man's land in between our states.

Well, let's see how far we can get before our offensives bogs down.

Wahl pirate vessels are the fragile speedsters of the Orion Sector. Faster than most but can't take a punch so hit and runs are where they will shine. The pirates wouldn't try to be bogged down in offensive battles and were more than likely run and try to outmaneuver with their superior speed. Maybe come in with ships backed with unstable warp cores and massive shielding overlays to basically be a giant bomb or battering ram but they wouldn't be in the business of doing standard fleet to fleet battles.

Don't worry. I'll be handling the conventional-side of warfare as I got the resources and administration to do so.
