Universal Ascendancy—OOC Thread

Well, on the note about your suspending the research until the battle is over, I'd only do that if RMA does that same. If he doesn't, just keep up your research. Your research station would be in Azdgari anyway, and you haven't lost that.

Solel: Just in case you didn't figure this out we presently don't have a Zidagar player.

Meanwhile on to less pressing matters, does anyone know what happened to ESPilot and Major? As much as I enjoy not having any enemies (I do) it is causing me to be annoyed because ESPilot never posted fleets. (I don't think Major did either but a good assumption would be everything is in Emahlga). Can anyone track them down, or if they are reading this can the post their fleets, research, or just say they are out? Finally if no one is able to trace our missing players we will need a replacement for at least the UE, I would prefer someone who can post occasionally.

Present (active) players:
Voinian: Paranoid
Independent: Cresent
Azdgari: Gordontron
Igadzra: RMA
Miranu: Rima
Zachit: Kauthor
Strandless: Solel
5 Major governments
1 Minor government
1 Independent pilot
We aren't short players but we could use a full complement, we need a replacement for the Zidagar, and possibly UE and Emahlga.

------------------
"Paranoia is Life"

Those are good points you bring up Paranoid. I'll defer to Kauthor in tracking Major and ESPilot down, as he seems to have connections with more people than I can keep track of. *nudges Kauthor. 😄

However, in regards to your request for a replacement Zidagar player, I think it wouldn't really make much difference. The Zidagar fleets have been crushed, so a replacement almost seems...futile. If anyone wants to step forward on this regardless of the current galactic state of affairs, go ahead and reply.

Meanwhile, I'm in contact with someone who might be willing to take control of either the UE or the Emalgha if it turns out Major or/and ESPilot are gone.

Regards,
Solel

Ambassador, the moderators welcome you to the webstory. Now, most of us have AIM. We use AIM to discuss fleets distribution, researchs, ships, and etc. We will like you to be one of the people that uses AIM.

I'm going to New York Thrusday, and I wont be back until Monday night. I don't know if I'll have be able to get on the computer tomorrow either, so this is just to tell you I'll be gone.

Thanks, kauthor, i'm sure i'll enjoy contributing. And I now have AIM, so who do I talk to to converse about the research, etc?

------------------
what's this? i was just fighting a 'fed cruiser in Tau Ceti and now what the hell happened? i'm in this "Eltor" System... damn wormholes

That would be Solel and in case you care my AIM handle is dparanoidschizo. I've sent some ships through your system, so if you want to comment on those it may be beneficial, and I may at some point contact you as well. It's good to meet someone from my home state. (Disjointed speech, in a hurry)

"Paranoia is Life"

I hope i dind't create to much confusion by creating a whole new gov't or anything. Whoever is in charge should send me an email explaining all the indepth stuff like construction points, etc.

------------------
what's this? i was just fighting a 'fed cruiser in Tau Ceti and now what the hell happened? i'm in this "Eltor" System... damn wormholes

I'll email you. I just hope that my explanation is clear to you. If you want any clarification, feel free to ask any questions either here on this thread, on AIM through my (SoLeL87) or the other moderators' handles, or through email to the moderators (Myself, Redchigh, Kauthor).

Denlon has built a station in orbit:
Production:
4 Krikka Warships
6 Supply ships (Outfitted with hyperspace engine increase, and loaded with building supplies and explosives)

Station second level:
Adds living quarters and improves production.
6 Kirokka Warships
10 Strroka Fighters
4 Supply ships (same)

Station third level:
Massive increase in production but takes a long time.
6 Strroka Carriers
10 Kirokka Warships

Hyperspace engine upgrade:
All capital ships (Cruisers, Frigates and Strroka carriers) are upgraded to two jumps per RTD. Heavy fighters remain unchanged, Interceptors, Supply ships, Kirokka warships and Strokka fighters upgraded to three jumps per RTD. Design was easy due to examples of all technology from Azdgari database actually installing takes 5 RTD. So all newly built ships have the upgrades.

If moderators have complaints contact me.

Hi all, I'm back.

I have talked to ESPilot about character developments more recently than his last post on the boards, so I see no reason why he would just leave. I don't know where he is, though.

"Defensive fleet enters Stror and contacts Azdgari, indirectly.
(Encrypted message to Exploration fleet)
(We have arrived in Stror.)
(End message)"-Paranoid

As I recall there is nothing in Stror. The base is constructed in the mission string (I am pretty sure) so there would be no Azdgaris in the system. Could someone post a description of the construction of the base, I don't think it was there before the missions.

"(Land on Azdgari)
The exploration fleet lands on Azdgari and contacts high command waiting fo an audience with Gordontron.
(Await audience)"-Paranoid
There is nothing on Azdgari, it had been a barren waste land ever since the Zidagar offensive. You will need to land on Dames or Xarnes.

-Note when I said the ships were produced on Xarnes I meant Dames. I can't believe taht I mixed those two up.

Kauthor you need to make your delete some casualties from the battle of the rock. Read Red's most recent post.

In character to save space:
After the battle of Chak before the attack on NT station:

Scanners swepted the Hrekka system for ships (it is 2 jumps from Raigar). They determined about how many ships were in the hanger at that moment and reported the total figure to the leaders on Raigar. Red please tell me your ship numbers.

Message to Zachit goverment: Heavily encryption
We have observed your movement of your fleets into posisiton to attack NT station. The current collection of ships consists of____________. It may be wise to wait until (Wednesday April 30th) so that you can gather a colilition of Miranu and Voinian ships. I will also be able to provide you with 100 Azdaras and 100 g2 Azdaras*** if you wait until then. Do not be too hasty, it is true we asked you to attack NT station but don't do it when there is a high chance of losing so many Zachit lives. Now and for always-Gordon P.

Thanks Bush, great job at protecting oil fields. Oh but next time, protecting the first known artifacts of writing, and the first calendar might be preferable.

Gordontron:
Fixed error about Azdgari/Dames.
Stror doesn't matter I contacted my own ships and had them contact you, I know that Stror likely didn't have any Azdgari ships.
(Edit)Just realized what you were talking about. The message is addressed to my exploration fleet I didn't actually inform you of my fleets or my plans but I am trying to gain a base of control in the Galactic North, hence my most recent post(/Edit)

I won't be able to be as active as I have been in this story for the next two weeks. I may, occasionally, be able to post, but I doubt that I will be able to moderate as effectively as I'd like. I therefore implore the other moderators, Kauthor and Redchigh, to be extra-diligent while I am less-active, as you'll now have to watch tech advances.

Red, if they are determined to post so much as to get the battle of Chak into moderator hands, since you're the battle moderator, I'm asking you to handle it. I no longer have the patience or the time.

Thanks all.
Solel

Carnotaur:
We have no player for the Zidagar so they are NPC at the moment. RMA was just going to massacre them anway so go ahead with anything.

------------------
"Paranoia is Life"

So I can just slaughter them? Okay. Expect a post later today.

He was going to take over Zidagar space but it wan't going to be a cake walk. You need to post thinking about what the Zidagar would do. They won't just sit there and let you fire at them. They would adapt to your tactics and potentially cause many casualties. I have not been following it closely so thats just my two bits.

-Cresent you need to move to Raigar for the attack, we are getting ready to go tomorrow.

-Paranoid Are you attacking the Iggys or not. Just wondering.

-We really should get his chak battle over. I won't have time tonight and probably not tomorrow either.

I'm gaining a hold in the North tip, I may eventually attack RMA/Carnotaur, but not while I have nothing to gain.

My character doesn't know that yet. Neither you or Kauthor seems to bother telling her anything. She knows you left, but other than that, she thinks the attack is over.

Cresent, you got what you wanted. Nice work thinking character-wise!
