Imperium: Reboot (OOC/Sign Ups) Always Open

[G-Tech Corporation]

The glow of the bright galaxy shall fade before the growing emptiness...

Does the galaxy have the kind of tech needed for starlifting?

I’d assume not in truth, since the type of energy requirements for that level of macroscale engineering would have invalidated considerations around limitations like terraforming, which is canonically established as difficult and costly. But you can do a lot of good things with specific exotic elements particular stars will spit out, and there are few better ways to run really energetically intensive operations than to let them feed off of the outer envelope of a properly sequenced stellar body for fusion.

Ooh Union Princes is becoming the Forum artist

[Lunas Legion]

I'll have a proper TNO superevent up tomorrow since UP's decided to start doing them, or at least what I'd consider to be imitations of them that don't fit this time period at all. Also no audio which is, like, the defining part of TNO superevents.

[Union Princes]

Ooh Union Princes is becoming the Forum artist

heh, maybe I am

[Segmentia]

Wtf are 'TNO Superevents'?

[Lunas Legion]

Wtf are 'TNO Superevents'?

They're from a HoI 4 mod, they're for fairly major events that occur within it like major civil wars. UP decided to make a few in a similar vein to the original, I happen to know how to make them since I've made a few for my region.

And here's one I just made. It does have audio since it's a video though.

They're honestly really easy to make lel. Probably won't make any more though because the hardest part is finding proper fitting images and audio.

Biography: Born 25 years ago on the mining world of Antelope, John Clarence Russel or Johnny for short was born on the planet capital of Woodsboro, the city was home to large steel factories and munitions factories which most of the populus worked in. Johnny’s father worked in the local garrison, the Antelope Home Guard while his mama worked in one of the many munitions factories, Johnny was lucky enough to go to a pretty decent school compared to most of the other children in his neighborhood thanks to his father’s status in the Home Guard. As the years went by the family’s situation improved with each promotion his father made, eventually his father got to the rank of captain, which thanks to the pay grade, allowed them to move to a nice home right outside of town, but things changed shortly after. At the age of 10 Johnny lost his mother, his mother was a member of a local union that had recently gone on strike, after a few days the strike turned violent and the local garrison of Home Guard was called in to deal with the workers. The fighting was brutal with workers and soldiers getting critically injured or killed, but one case affected Johnny more than any other. During the fighting his father and mother were both involved, during the fighting his mother was shot while trying to help some fellow workers flee the scene but the man who shot her wasn’t just a random soldier it was her husband, who until hours after the fighting realized who he had killed that day

Johnny and his father began to split apart after the death of his mother, Mr. Russel began a habitat of heavy drinking while Johnny started sneaking out of the house and began hunting small animals. After six years Johnny decided to move into the city with his grandfather instead of continuing to live with his drunkard father, when he moved into the city he decided to enlist in the Home Guard. Johnny was shipped off to a Ra’Shide conservation, there he got to know the culture of the group and their history, as he talked to more and more of they Ra’Shide he began to understand the troubles they faced the more distaste he grew for the Authority and the Imperium as a whole. After serving for four years until the age of twenty, Johnny decided to quit working in the Home Guard and went to work in a coal mine near Woodsboro. After a few years of work Johnny decided to run for the leadership of his local union and managed to win the election, after that he began to get into contact with other unions across the entire colony and called for the formation of a one big union and so after many weeks of discussion and debate the Antelope International Workers Union was formed and involved all types of workers and jobs. After the formation of the AIWU, the Authority decided to slash the wages of any workers that were a part of the AIWU this resulted in a meeting of the Workers Council, which after a few debates resulted in a unanimous vote for a General Strike. As the preparations were made, Johnny began to set up what was needed for this general strike to succeed, firstly he began the organization of the Antelope Self-Defense Union which beforehand was a poorly organized militia was organized into an effective deterrent force in case the Home Guard had tried to violently stop the strike, secondly he got into contact with Ra’Shide chieftains and young Reformist officers in the Home Guard both parties agreed to assist the general strike for their own reasons.

Three months after the General Strike vote was passed it was declared that the AIWU would launch the strike, across Antelope workers stopped working and alongside local ASDU militia seized their workplaces, at Ra’Shide reservations warriors and tribes kicked out their Home Guard watchmen, and the entirety of the Woodsboro garrison had declared a mutiny until the demands of the AIWU were fulfilled. The AIWU now holds several reservations, smaller coal towns, and the capital Greensboro, now the cocky General Ivan Yazov prepares to handle the strike without Imperial assistance trying to show his might and the local navy sits by and waits, whatever the result of the Antelope General Strike it will affect the Authority for the rest of its days.

If Great House or a leader of a Faction like a SAS, Colony, Et Cetera
Name of Territory: The Antelope Authority and The Antelope International Workers Union
Government: The AA is run by a council of local garrison officers and is headed by General Ivan Yazov, while his opposition, the AIWU is led by young revolutionary General John C. Russel. The AIWU is led by a workers council elected by popular vote by union members, then the members of the council vote out of two of them for the position of General Secretary.
Capital World: Antelope, A world in the Eastern Frontier of the Empire.
Population: 750 Million-600 Million Humans/augmented humans and 150 million Ra’Shide.
The Ra’Shide: The Ra’Shide are the native population of Antelope, the species can be described as an insectoid-humanoid species that are extremely traditionalist, the average Ra’Shide is 7-9 feet tall, all Ra’Shide are asexual and reproduce as so but the species reproduces at a small rate which has resulted in a low population increase rates. The species has a thick exoskeleton able to absorb low and medium caliber ballistic rounds of ammunition and even some laser fire, they are also known for being 10x stronger than the average human which allows them to do jobs that would normally require several men to only need one Ra’Shide . The species was found during the colonization of Antelope in the 23rd Century, the colonizers encountered the Ra’Shide, who at the time were still a tribal society, on the Eastern side of the planets on and only supercontinent. The Ra’Shide decided to launch an attack on the colonizers, believing that they were demons sent to punish them for their misdeeds. The Antelope war lasted a long 10 years and killed 3,000,000 million Ra'Shide and 1,650,000 colonizers, what was left of the Ra’Shide leadership decided to accept their defeat and pledged their loyalty to the Imperium. Since then there have been laws passed that have made the Ra’Shide second class citizens in compensation for the war, they are tasked with the most tiring jobs and receive the lowest pay in the entire Authority. Those that don’t live in cities live under the control of tribal chieftains in designated reservations for the Ra’Shide, most of the tribes are still waiting for a chance to free themselves from the Authority. The average Ra’Shide warrior owns a traditional sword of spear and a home crafted three shot rifle, but in some parts of Antelope the rifles of the Ra’Shide are outlawed.

Economy: The economy of the AA is heavily based on the coal,oil, and steel industries of Antelope and the gem mining operations on the barren worlds within the control of the Authority.The AA also is known for forcinging the native Xeno populace to operate on the more “Dangerous” jobs on the planet.
Culture:The culture of the AA is similar to that of Midwestern America, with a large amount of the population being involved in mining work and steel work. On the other hand there is the Ra’Shide population whose religion and culture focus on the preservation of nature and the warrior spirit, this had caused conflicts between them and corporation owners and military officials.
Social Structure: General Ivan Yazov>Military Council>Business owners and Landlords>Mayors and local politicians>Ra’Shide Chieftains>Average Human citizen>Average Ra’Shide resident.
Territorial Size: Antelope (Continental world about the size of Earth but with only one large continent), Elk (Smaller mining world with about 10 million residents), Wraith (Barren world used as a mining outpost for corporations)
Military and Security Forces: Antelope Authority:
Antelope Home Guard: 2,500,000(15% is in Mutiny, in solidarity with the General strike)
The Antelope Guardian Navy: 2,200 men (8 destroyers and a few fighters, the Navy is currently indecisive in the General Strike Crisis)

The Antelope International Workers Union:
The Antelope Self-Defense Union: 1,800,000 (Mostly civilian equipped militias, some groups have military grade weaponry.)

Name: Sh'ur
Nickname: (If applicable)
Age: 28
Birth Date: April 12
Gender: Male
Planet of Origin: Grex Prime
Race/Species: Grex (Large, dangerous, Bi-Pedal Saurian Xenos, similar to the Pre-historic Terran Allosaurus and T-Rex, females can lay up to 5 eggs at a time)
Height: 6'5
Weight: 300
Physical Description or Image: For a inspirational reference

(Image)

Social Class: Lower Class
Titles: None, thought he is leader of a small Grex independence cell
Occupation: Was an Xenos auxiliary in the Imperial Army before returning to his homeworld
Hobbies/Pastimes: Katar(a game where two teams of Grex chase a herd animal, the winning team gaining the animal for feast), Martial Arts, Politics
Talents/Skills: Knows Imperial Standard and Grexian languages, all around trained in basic ranged and melee combat, has good interpersonal communication skills.
Religious Beliefs: Call of Thrake(A monotheist religion worshiping the future birth of the Grex god, it is said that when the Grex race has achieved their final victory, Thrake, a powerful and great Grex, will be spawned into the universe. Every good deed that brings honor and strength to the Grex people creates another crack in the egg. The religion is tailored around Strength, Honor and Sacrifice)
Personality: Calm and Collected and even hesitant at times, but when Sh'ur decides on a move he is totally dedicated to it. He is an introvert but will not shy from contact if it seeks himself out. He has a personal vendetta against the Terrans who claim his home world, but understands that might makes whos left. The Terrans imposed birth control upon the Grex race to slow their reproduction rate, this is a very sore subject for Sh'ur.
Biography: Sh'ur grew up on his homeworld like any other Grex. Like most Grex he was one of many nestlings born, around three in his hatch. His mother took care of them until they reached early adult hood before they were all sent seperate ways. His brother Xank became a bodyguard and his sister a miner. He was drafted into the Imperial Army Xenos Auxiliary forces and thankfully had a easy service before heading back home.

If Great House or a leader of a Faction like a SAS, Colony, Et Cetera
Name of Territory: Grex System
Government: Imperial Governorate
Capital World: Grex Prime
Population: 4 billion
Economy: Mixed, Grex Prime is still rather rural for a Imperial world, though it does have two large urban areas closer to the poles where it is a bit cooler for Terrans, leaving the center band much more heavily populated with Grex. Exotic meats and plants are harvested from Grex Prime to be given over to Terran nobles and businessmen. Mining operations are also present, providing ore to the few factories the Terrans established. A large planetside starport and open air Market exists which is the prized attraction of the world aside from some of the oasis terran home retreats present.
Culture: Call of Thrake and a proud marshal tradition has created a honorable warrior culture, strength or cunning is prized and bravery is one of the utmost cultural norms. This has led the Imperium to draft Grex into military service as shock troops or auxillarys, as well as bodguards for royalty and other upper class Terrans.
Social Structure: Hierarchy where the largest and strongest males or females hold leadership roles, contests can be decided through battle or other agreed means. As a Grex ages he is expected to rely on his mind over his body. This is still an honorable way of living, as it is believed that aging is giving ones body to Thrake and in exchange the mind is opened.
Territorial Size: Semi-Arid Death World( Mesas, rivers and small Jungles and Forests dot the landscape, these are home to a variety of dangerous animals competing for water and other needs. Giant poisous insects, Swarming stinging Locusts and dangerous hordes of Bat-like beasts roam the landscape. Many of these dangers burrow underground or ambush victims.)
Military and Security Forces: An Imperial Garrison is stationed on the planet, to maintain control and to prevent rebellion.

What's the standard Imperial rifle given to the everyday solider?

An unloaded bolt-action is provided to 50% of all soldiers.

The other 50% get the ammunition for when the man with the gun drops during the charge.

Hollywood memery of the USSR aside.

There is no single standard for the Imperial Army. There are several models of approximate standardization issued to the various billions upon billions of Imperial Army soldiers about the Galaxy. Generally due to shields and risk of feed back they're ballistic or energy weapons which fire a bolt rather than a continuous laser (basically pulse rather than laser).

The Imperial Guard is a bit more standardized (though they're much smaller than the Imperial Army) between a few ballistic, pulse, and gravity based weaponry.

Imperial Marines generally carry similar equipment to the Army except practically everything is tailored for void operations, short term expeditionary forces, orbital drop assaults, or planetoids with little to no atmosphere.
