Oh yeah, woopsies. I'm on Voina... Mental Typo
------------------ Ganna paint our wagon, Ganna paint it good, We ain't braggin', We're ganna coat that wood!
To Rima: You can get your ship back. It's still on First Centauri being repaired after it crash landed. Right now, your still on F-25. Also, is your character a Zidagar/Miranu mix or Human?
----------------
Carnotaur, leaving the captain of the Subterfuge on Voinia to wait for Buba and the Purple River Eels, decides to take the Red October to F-25. After a bunch of jumps, the Red October exits hyperspace and flies toward F-25. Landing quickly, Carnotaur gets out and observes the new spaceport that he just set up. After touring the area, Carnotaur meets with the captain of the Specter.
"Captain, I'm going to give you some very specific instructions," Carnotaur said.
"What are they?"
"Go to First Centauri, and, under cloak, capture Rima's vessel and bring it back here, fast."
"Yes sir."
A few weeks later, the Specter returns with the SilverDawn in tow. Then, Carnotaur heads to the brig, where Rima is being held. Entering the brig area, Carnotaur goes to the cell where Rima is being held. It is a force field, not a door, that this brig uses, so Carnotaur doesn't have to open the door to speak.
Carnotaur looks at Rima and then considers the situation. Then, he speaks. "Rima, I just got word from the Miranu; they won't grant our requests, and thus we can't let you go. However, I am fully prepared to make you a deal. I've town your ship, the SilverDawn, back to this planet and I'm having it repaired. If you are willing to help me, I'll let you go. Deal?"
Meanwhile, the Knight, one of Carnotaur's CW escort ships, goes to the Azdgari system and meets with the Azdgari Emporer, Arada Pilot. When meeting with him, the cloaked captain of the Knight (who does not reveal his true identify to Arada Pilot) unloads 30 tons of cargo on the planet Dames. "These supplies are Pursuit Missile and Plasma Siphon technology. You will be able to use this technology to upgrade your ship." And then the Knight leaves.
------------------ To Escape Velocity: Nova and Beyond! -------------- Millennium. Its coming, prepare for it. Coming to the (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiaSW.com/games/ev/chronicles.html")EV Chronicles(/url).
After unloading the cargo (and evading those mean Zidagar Zidaras) the captain of the Subterfuge hands Buba his pay; 500,000 credits. "Why the extra cash?" Buba asks.
"I don't know. Carnotaur just said to give it to you."
Then, the cargo is taken to the actual ship Subterfuge. There, the Purple River Eels are used to create 20 Phase Beamers. Then, the captain of the Subterfuge brings the 20 Phase Beamers to Nova6 for him to put on his Voinian ships. Nova6 gives the captain of the LoneIgadzra 5 million credits, and then the captain of the LoneIgadzra leaves.
I'm supposed to be a Zidgar/Miranu mix.I'm not sure anymore.But yes I'm Miranu/Zidgar. --------------------------------------------------------------- Rima looks up."What do you want me to do?I'll probably do it but I'm asking anyway before I agree."
------------------
Carnotaur then deactivates the force field and then steps into the brig, then reactivates it. "I'll be needing a lot of supplies for my base on S-570, this planet. I'll need an innocent looking merchent captain, like you for example, to bring in the cargo. The cargo will probably be mostly equipment, personnel, metal, ground-stationed planetary guns, etc. I might also need your help in brining messages back and forth and maybe even taking some special cargo to different governments. That's pretty much it." Carnotaur steps closer to her. "Deal?"
(This message has been edited by Captain Carnotaur (edited 01-21-2001).)
Rima sighs."Deal.I don't have much of a choice."
Since when did you have F-25 Carno, I was building a base there. If you were reading them you would have figured it out. Or did you post that in the very beginning. I don't remember seeing it. Also, where are you getting your resources, you can't build a base, send weapons to me, hire many escorts, and attack Bakka without money. In my post where my 6 heavy freighters headed towards F-25 I explained where my money came from.
------------------ ---------------------- Give them shell! give them solid shot! Damn them, give them anything!
Drat. Ummmmm.... How about this, I'll make my hidden base in the Proxima nebula. Okay with you?
Also, I didn't hire ANY escorts. I captured them all with my ship the Red October. Every single ship I have in my little fleet I captured (so, no pay), no hiring. As for my resources, I do all sorts of stuff to get that. I usually, however, just pirate ships. For instance, I send out my escort ships into fringe UE worlds, and have them loot a bunch of supplies from the UE. I also occasionally do this to the Igadzra or Zidagar. As for my money, please refer to two of my posts earlier. When I gave all that stuff to Nova6 (30 cloaking devices and 20 Phase Beamers - which I made myself, I didn't buy them) I got a total of 20 million credits from him, and he didn't disagree with me either.
Sorry, been working on Darkstream. Carno, you can either continue on your way having slightly damaged Outpost Alpha, or i can put you back there and you can fight the incoming UE backup fleets. I had thought you gave up your insubordination after LBS 3 but maybe i'm wrong. Also, you must explain how you captured those ships, and how you got free officers to work on them. Real events, not subjective. And yes, the Voinians have taken the UE and the Azdgari have taken the Igadzra.
CONTINUATION: Rooster: "Yes, i will join you. But if i go, we must also take Daedalus. Without a leader this uprising will surely crumble. I will purchase two more warship escorts hoping that my funds will be replenished after this venture. I'm not a greedy man, but my help comes with a price."
------------------ It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.

Maybe I might stop if everyone stopped anoying me so much.
Okay, FINE! Here's the history of HOW I captured all those ships: 1-Carnotaur finally captures the Igazra 'LoneIgadzra' with his Crescent Warship the Knight. Carnotaur transfers to LoneIgadzra to use as his ship. 2-Carnotaur finally builds up enough credits (by doing missions, plundering etc.) to buy the Voinian cruiser 'Red October' (Carnotaur had already done some missions for the Voinians). 3-Carnotaur goes to the North Tip and captures the CW 'Specter'. Carnotaur uses this ship as an escort, and then goes to Hizdriar. There, he slowly finds a suitible crew for the Specter. 4-Carnotaur goes to Igadzra space and captures the Prophecied Light, Subterfuge, and Dark Thunder. Carnotaur then goes to several Strandless worlds and slowly hires the crews of his captured ships.
Good now? As for the Bakka system thing, give me a minute to decide on that.
The militia leader responds to roostersw:
"We understand fully, and we will reimburse you for your help. Now, we must be going. No doubt daedalus will respond to our raid at which time we will be able to 'take' him, as you suggested."
With that, the Kayan fleet, composed mostly of Aradas (with pursuit missiles and defense pods, as all Kayan ships have been fitted with), along with Thunder and roostersw jumps into hyperspace on a course for Mavs.
------------------ Explorers are we, intrepid and bold, Out in the wild, amongst wonders untold...
I jump to Zacha station and hail them. "I demand either a Zacha General or I will destroy your fleets, capture your station, and take all your Generals. You have 5 minutes to answer, starting now."
NOTE: I have captured Zachit Station with just my dreadnaught in EVO once. Not even with Cruiser Escorts.
P.S. To Nova6:I would like to be second in command, but I can just be a Merc leaning _ VERY_
Carno, you must explain the battle in which you captured those ships, list the missions in which you built up your funding, and if you are paying your crew and why they stay with you if you are not. If you insist on having ships you "captured" before the story started, there must be information on them.
I'm gonna let you layout the battle Thunder, as it is your mission.
Without direct funding from the Voinian Empire, standard independents can't have such a large arsenal (as i am trying to teach Carno). But if Nova contributes a large amount of funding to you, that's fine.
OK. Can I have just my Dreadnaught and 4 Cruisers then?
------------------ (url="http://"http://pub29.ezboard.com/b20")Don't click here.(/url) Do radioactive cats have 18 half-lives? The Person who misspells "Voinian" knows not of the 50 gigaton nuke coming at their cranium.
Daedalus wakes up on Freeport screaming "Voinians!!" He is all sweaty and still shaking from a horrible dream. "I have to leave and think about this," he thinks to himself, "just where do I get the money?" A shuttle craft leaves Freeport 30 minutes later and doesn't return.
The Kayan fleet dissolves out of hyperspace in the Mavs system. The only renegade ships in the system are two crescent warships and several smaller fighters. The Kayan fleet, composed mostly of small ships, was able to travel through hyperspace faster than the average fleet (aradas have very fast hyperjump capabilities), and as a result most of the renegades haven't had time to get back from their attacks on Kayan bases yet.
Immediately the Kayan aradas leap into action, swarming the renegade warships and pummeling them with defense pods before they even get a chance to launch more than one of their carried fighters. The aradas then turn their attention to the smaller renegade fighters. Outnumbered and out gunned, the renegade fighters are dispatched easily.
Thunder and roostersw wait several hundred kilometers from the station, ready for battle, preparing to fight off any renegade reinforcements that might enter the system.
With the system clear of renegades, the Kayan aradas turn their attention to the station. The station is rocked with phase cannon fire to disorient renegades on board as five of the Kayan aradas dock with the station, unloading large several contingients of Kayan Marines to take the station. After a breif firefight on the station, the renegade crew is subdued. The other aradas then move in, and begin loading any cargo and supplies they can find onto their ships. Some of the supplies were those stolen in the renegade attack on Unobot.
The first four aradas, stuffed to the brim with supplies, rejoined Thunder and rooster, as four new aradas swept in to take their place and load up. This would be the plan of action until either all the aradas were full up with supplies or until the renegades came to defend the system...
Aboard the Storm, Thunder waited to see if the renegades would return to give them any trouble...
Arada pilot what did you wan't to tell me? Titan out fits 10 UE Cruiser with Creacent tech so he can defend himself againts Captain Carn.

He's NOT a "standard independent", he's my seconed in command! He can have all the Voinain ships he wants! (But only ONE Dreadnought!)
