If you choose something in alliance space I’m doing a sorta human confederation type deal using the Alliance as the umbrella organization.

I'm personally looking forward to the Terminus Systems Alliance.

[Revlona]

Not in alliance space. Will be around the Attican-Terminus line

[Revlona]

Citizens Republic of the Cradle will be its name

Going to try and have a wip up before my flight later and have it done after.

Faction: Citizens Republic of the Cradle
Leader: Marshall Elizabeth Mcneal
Diplomatic Relations Summary: The CRC is a young nation in the galactic eye and still needs to forge relations.
Military Summary: A professional all volunteer force lead by both homegrown officers as well as veterans of the Systems Alliance, including but not limited to former N7 member Elizabeth Mcneal. The armed forces of Cradle are split into two arms with distinct responsibility and both draw from an incredible wealth of cultural knowledge from their pasts in Europe, Asia, and North America. Service in either arm of the armed forces or another government apparatus grants residents full citizenship and voting rights.

The Republic Fleet is the arm of the armed forces which is responsible for taking and maintaining control of the space in and around the Republics home territories and in the area which holds the Republics interests. Republic ships have the prefix of CRS (Citizens Republic Ship). The Fleet tends to focus on strong heavy ships supported by lighter combat vessels and carries for a wide range of offensive and defensive capabilities.

The Republic Guard is the terrestrial arm of the armed forces responsible for both the defense of the homeworlds and the seizure of enemy planets and infrastructure. The guard prefers a highly mobile and hard hitting doctrine which aims for air dominance, allowing them fast redeployment capabilities to strike swiftly across an entire world.
History:
The Reaper War was a catastrophe unlike any ever seen by the many species of the galaxy, billions died due to the genocidal machines rampage, whole worlds were left barren of sentient life. This was not the case for every cluster though, some worlds even escaped the reapers direct touch outright. Watson was one of those worlds.

A human colony settled in 2165 CE, Watson is a swarming mass of seemingly clashing cultures and peoples. Peoples from across Earth call Watson their home, cities in the styles of China, North America, and Europe all dot the Garden world and conflict like seen on old earth before the systems alliance seemed the most likely option to many, that was of course until the Reapers.

Watson like the broader galaxy united as it had never done before. Under the leadership of Systems Alliance Captain Elizabeth Mcneal, a graduate of the N7 program who had been visiting family on the world, who at the start of war was the ranking Systems Alliance officer, the Planet dug in and prepared to fight. Gone were the petty squabbles of the past, resources were shared, defensive lines joined, and whole armies raised in a entirely human gesture of defiance, Watson would not go quietly into the night, when the Reapers attacked they would go out in a blaze.

The attack never came, with the victory over earth secured and the Relay System broken, Watson let out a breath it didn't know it had held. Admiral Mcneal, having been premoted via long range communication by the Systems Alliance, stepped down from her post as military governor and retired to live with her family. Peace ruled and weapons were put down. That was until the ships began to arrive.

In droves they came from ruined worlds, the last desperate survivors of the Reapers genocidal wrath. Taurians, Asurians, Humans, and much more besides all appeared at Watsons door seeking protection. Tempers flared and the people of Watson seemed posied to turn them away, by force if necessary, they simply didn't have enough to share it was said. They were saved once again by Mcneal, using her influence with the defense forces on the planet, Mcneal once more took power and calmed the rising tensions, declaring in a fiery speech that the free peoples of the Galaxy had a duty to aid those in need. A year passed and while tensions between the many many refugees and the natives of Watson were still there, they had lessened somewhat. What came next removed them completely, Watson was in Terminus afrer all.

Hearing of Watsons avoidance of the ravages of the Reaper War, an alliance of raiders, slavers, and pirates intent on conquering the Garden world for their own had gathered and soon arrived above the planet. Their fleets were no Systems Alliance fleet, nor Taurian or Asari, they lacked quality and only had quantity. This was enough however as Watson had no true Space Defense fleet to speak of, not then. The alliance of ravagers landed on the planet and what followed was a brutal one month war later coined as the Desperation War.

Used to policing action and off a war footing the defense forces and militia of the planet was caught holy off guard. Only the direct leadership of Mcneal and her officers allowed a defensive line around the planets largest city of New Paris to be established. Casualties were high on both sides but with the momentum no longer theirs and with no more reinforcements on the way the pirates knew that the outcome was now all but certain and attempted to surrendur. They were ignored.

The month after the Desperation Wars end Marshall Mcneal and Watson declared both independence from the Systems Alliance and the creation of the Citizens Republic of the Cradle. In the years since that decleration the CRC has expanded to claim a second Garden world in Sanctum as well as full control of the Systems of Sigurds Cradle. With news of the Relay Networks revival, the CRCs own Relay in Skepsis was soon opened by the Republic, signalling their entrance into the greater galaxies politics for all to see.

This is looking good. There are only two minor things.

1) Generally speaking, a government expanding beyond a world or system would be involved in a conquest or relatively notable political campaign to annex multiple systems as a new state. Would this have involved the Citizen’s Republuc warring against colonies of other Citadel powers?

2) Categorically, custom factions begin with their main Relay closed, as opening a Relay requires a level of technical and logistical expertise only established factions can usually muster. Is there a reason the Citizens’ Republic would then have a Relay already opened?

[G-Tech Corporation]

Ovs, just caught up with your scouting reports. Enjoy!

Heya G-tec, do you mind if I could ask two questions that are distinctly related to one another?

Soooo I'm still struggling to come to terms with planetary classifications on my lonesome. So if you could help me define what classification Aphras and Tosal Nym belong to, that'd be great. Thanks in advance!

Both of them should be Post-Garden/Near Garden worlds.

They were once garden worlds that have since lost that status.

My thoughts on it were that in the cluster there are only two populated planets, one being Watson my capital which is much more developed, the other being my secondary planet with a quarter of a million people which I assumed would be a diplomatic union rather that a conquest. The rest of taking control of the cluster would have been simply establishing a presence I think.

For the relay being opened, it was my idea that we started opening it when we first heard of the relays being reopened and about a year has passed in the IC since then and we’ve just now opened it.

This all seems fine to me, minus one caveat; because the opening of a Relay has pretty significant geopolitical ramifications for your neighbors, I can't really let you have it immediately open. I've let that happen once thus far this RP, but only at the expense of one of that faction's perks, and even then it caused a fair amount of snark.

So, no open Relay. But if you want to have one month begun on the work of opening your Relay, I'm fine with that, provided you spend 200 Allotment for the privilege.

Otherwise looking good. Assuming you're fine with that, I'll whip up your perks in an hour or two.

Military Summary: A professional all volunteer force lead by both homegrown officers as well as veterans of the Systems Alliance, including but not limited to former N7 member Elizabeth Mcneal. The armed forces of Cradle are split into two arms with distinct responsibility and both draw from an incredible wealth of cultural knowledge from their pasts in Europe, Asia, and North America. Service in either arm of the armed forces or another government apparatus grants residents full citizenship and voting rights.

The Republic Fleet is the arm of the armed forces which is responsible for taking and maintaining control of the space in and around the Republics home territories and in the area which holds the Republics interests. Republic ships have the prefix of CRS (Citizens Republic Ship). The Fleet tends to focus on strong heavy ships supported by lighter combat vessels and carries for a wide range of offensive and defensive capabilities.

The Republic Guard is the terrestrial arm of the armed forces responsible for both the defense of the homeworlds and the seizure of enemy planets and infrastructure. The guard prefers a highly mobile and hard hitting doctrine which aims for air dominance, allowing them fast redeployment capabilities to strike swiftly across an entire world.
History:
The Reaper War was a catastrophe unlike any ever seen by the many species of the galaxy, billions died due to the genocidal machines rampage, whole worlds were left barren of sentient life. This was not the case for every cluster though, some worlds even escaped the reapers direct touch outright. Watson was one of those worlds.

A human colony settled in 2165 CE, Watson is a swarming mass of seemingly clashing cultures and peoples. Peoples from across Earth call Watson their home, cities in the styles of China, North America, and Europe all dot the Garden world and conflict like seen on old earth before the systems alliance seemed the most likely option to many, that was of course until the Reapers.

Watson like the broader galaxy united as it had never done before. Under the leadership of Systems Alliance Captain Elizabeth Mcneal, a graduate of the N7 program who had been visiting family on the world, who at the start of war was the ranking Systems Alliance officer, the Planet dug in and prepared to fight. Gone were the petty squabbles of the past, resources were shared, defensive lines joined, and whole armies raised in a entirely human gesture of defiance, Watson would not go quietly into the night, when the Reapers attacked they would go out in a blaze.

The attack never came, with the victory over earth secured and the Relay System broken, Watson let out a breath it didn't know it had held. Admiral Mcneal, having been premoted via long range communication by the Systems Alliance, stepped down from her post as military governor and retired to live with her family. Peace ruled and weapons were put down. That was until the ships began to arrive.

In droves they came from ruined worlds, the last desperate survivors of the Reapers genocidal wrath. Taurians, Asurians, Humans, and much more besides all appeared at Watsons door seeking protection. Tempers flared and the people of Watson seemed posied to turn them away, by force if necessary, they simply didn't have enough to share it was said. They were saved once again by Mcneal, using her influence with the defense forces on the planet, Mcneal once more took power and calmed the rising tensions, declaring in a fiery speech that the free peoples of the Galaxy had a duty to aid those in need. A year passed and while tensions between the many many refugees and the natives of Watson were still there, they had lessened somewhat. What came next removed them completely, Watson was in Terminus afrer all.

Hearing of Watsons avoidance of the ravages of the Reaper War, an alliance of raiders, slavers, and pirates intent on conquering the Garden world for their own had gathered and soon arrived above the planet. Their fleets were no Systems Alliance fleet, nor Taurian or Asari, they lacked quality and only had quantity. This was enough however as Watson had no true Space Defense fleet to speak of, not then. The alliance of ravagers landed on the planet and what followed was a brutal one month war later coined as the Desperation War.

Used to policing action and off a war footing the defense forces and militia of the planet was caught holy off guard. Only the direct leadership of Mcneal and her officers allowed a defensive line around the planets largest city of New Paris to be established. Casualties were high on both sides but with the momentum no longer theirs and with no more reinforcements on the way the pirates knew that the outcome was now all but certain and attempted to surrendur. They were ignored.

The month after the Desperation Wars end Marshall Mcneal and Watson declared both independence from the Systems Alliance and the creation of the Citizens Republic of the Cradle. In the years since that decleration the CRC has expanded to claim a second Garden world in Sanctum as well as full control of the Systems of Sigurds Cradle. With news of the Relay Networks revival, the CRCs own Relay in Skepsis was soon opened by the Republic, signalling their entrance into the greater galaxies politics for all to see.

This all seems fine to me, minus one caveat; because the opening of a Relay has pretty significant geopolitical ramifications for your neighbors, I can't really let you have it immediately open. I've let that happen once thus far this RP, but only at the expense of one of that faction's perks, and even then it caused a fair amount of snark.

So, no open Relay. But if you want to have one month begun on the work of opening your Relay, I'm fine with that, provided you spend 200 Allotment for the privilege.

Otherwise looking good. Assuming you're fine with that, I'll whip up your perks in an hour or two.

I can’t really say I agree with your reasoning, it’s been 4x the amount of time needed to open a relay since the RP began. But oh well.

I’ve freed up some allotment to have the 200 be free..

I’ve really turned into the mobile infantry with those drop troops

Or even better

It is also definitely a case of OOC needs, since having a month or two to prepare for your emergence in a cluster they previously thought was empty is fair to your neighbors.

They didn’t hear the whispers in the warp to warn of my coming?

This all seems good to me - I've added your perks to the OP, welcome and accepted.

It’s a good day to die when you know the reasons why, citizens we fight for what is right
