FAR II [FT Galaxy/Community][Open to Applications]

[Torrocca]

Sorry to burst everyone's bubbles, but who else is interested in meeting the Tantalan Construct?

*Raises hand*

[Transoxthraxia]

What the hell is that?

looks like a pokemon of some sort.

It's actually a combination of Ninetails and Arbok, but I simply use it as an actual animal because it looks so badass.

Just as a fun fact, one of the most common armour pieces deployed by the Helasian League is the Helphesteus Anvil, which is based on the Imperial Guard thunderer.

Cool, what distinguishes it from the actual thunderer?

Just some Tarquinium Defensive Units.

It maintains several individual point defence weapons, is larger (to accomadate the Helasian's large size) and is equipped with energy shielding typical of armoured Helasian units. It also uses munitions I personally thought of.

One day I will create a nation based on the Masari from Universe at War.

They create energy...FROM NOTHING!

When I read Masari, I immediately thought of the Massassi from Star Wars and I got really excited.

But can it take on a Hellhammer or Baneblade?

Short answer: No.

I have a nation made up of a species that is slowly dying from diseases brought on through Eldritch Abominations/genetic manipulation that only keeps its numbers up through the cloning of spare parts and the artificial creation of new members of a population. Their lives would be miserable and short, but they spend their lives in powered suits that keep their bodies in a specialized chemical cocktail that slows the decay. For the wealthier ones, it puts their body in a stasis field that permanently pauses the decay. The general idea is that they used to be a large, powerful empire, but its golden age is long behind it. The empire is slowly collapsing in on itself and they're the only ones who refuse to see that. I base the appearance of their military things off of World War One technology.

If I ever get the chance to bring a second nation into FAR, I'll use them.

[The Nuclear Fist]

But can it take on a Hellhammer or Baneblade?

Short answer: No.

Better munitions, shielding, and deployed in phalanxes.

So yes, it can.

But, dude, Baneblades.

But, dude, Baneblades.

I prefer Kill Krushas.

That sounds awesome. I've always thought dying empires were weirdly fascinating.

Waaaaagh?

... WAAAAAGH!!!

[The Nuclear Fist]

The general idea is for the empire itself to represent the race as a whole. Just as the race itself is dying, so is the empire. On a good day, they're likely to maintain a level population. But it is slowly shrinking, as the genetic code they clone from is getting 'tapped out' and corrupted. So as they lose more and more worlds to simple population loss, their borders contract.

You had no idea how very tempted I was to sign up as an Ork (or, to be more specific, Krork) based nation.

[Torrocca]

I actually was planning on doing that, but I just chose the Imperial Guard instead because of how cool they are for fending off, like, 8 or 9 alien races every single day to defend the Imperium.

Interesting. What about their social constructs? Have they become decadent, stagnant, and pointless like in most collapsing empires?

Eh, I was generally going to be basing my idea for a Greenskin nation off of an idea I had based on a lost tribe of Krorks.

Oh, neat. You could probably implement some of those into your current halienedhejkdhkjuswhateveristan nation.

In effect, yes. Though the ruling aristocracy has remained most of its mental faculties due to their use of a stasis field, the common peasant is only a hair away from a blathering, insane nutter that only vaguely responds to governmental stimuli. The illness they all have slowly degrades mental faculties with age. So while the populace can be directed, they're not very efficient, skilled, useful, or productive. The aristocracy itself is highly byzantine and corrupt and spends most of its time squabbling over who gets what. I'm not sure what you mean by 'pointless', though.

Helasian really isn't that hard to spell.

Afraid not. The Helasians are incredibly xenophobic and outright intend to enslave or kill off minority groups.
