I would say that ship research should be something like 150% of the cost of the ship. That way it dosent cost the same to develop a light fighter as it does a huge dreadnaught. Also what I am the most interested in is if we should allow development of new tech like weapons and such, but with an expensive research fee.

hmm, new tech takes a long time to develop probably, so I guess it would have to be on a case-by-case basis. Taking into account the type of tech (weapons, upgrades, armor, etc.) and how effective it would be.

I like the idea of beginning with one unique ship; here's mine. It'll be reasonably rare, and is designed to fight in small groups; it's about Frigate strength.
Athena - class Olympian Frigate
Holds: 40 Shield: 1500 Accel: 400 Speed: 200 Turn: 3 Fuel: 4 jumps Freemass: 50 Armour: 500 Shieldre: 200 Maxguns: 4 Maxturrets: 4 Mass: 320 Crew:150 Weapons: 3 Proton Turrets 2 Torpedo Launchers + 50 Torpedos
I'll let someone with more maths than me work out the price of that, and possibly rescale it if it costs too much. All stats are in ResEdit format.
Long Live The Olympian Solidarity!

You guys are dooming this story before it even begins. Skyblade's idea was to use standard EV ships and tech (with only the slightest modifications) ... and THAT is what I signed up for.
Stop messing with SB's original plan! GEEZ!!!
As Luke pointed out on page one of this thread, the original site still exists. It is http://saberstudios.evula.net/evwebstory/ . Keep screwing around with prices and tech and I am gone. It is the escalation of tech which started the END of BFS. I'm not going through all that again.

Do you mean gone: Bye Bye or gone for a walk until the 26th? I hope not the first one.
As for the ships, would it not be simpler to develop them after the story starts for it would be easier, more EVlistic and create less problems? Moreover, the story is set in a universe that cannot support multiple classes of ships, for the battle is constant on both sides. Possiblely, the independent worlds, with less money and scientists cannot afford the effort of diversification of their fleet.

We aren't talking about the crazy tech expantion of BFS, this is just a few new ships using the existing EV tech.
Might I suggest this rule, no new ships until the second page and new ships can only be introduced every three pages.
Moreover, the story is set in a universe that cannot support multiple classes of ships, for the battle is constant on both sides.
I don't think this is true, technology has always advanced the fastest in times of war.
Okay, I'm behind again, so please answer these questions...
And finally, if given enough information, I might be able to host the site if nobody else wants to or simply can't keep up with it.

Yes, that's how it starts. Then it gets crazy. It seems that I am in the distinct minority with my view. Please take me off the story.
KK I agree with you. Now the way I see it is that there will be no new ships weapons or upgrading. So thats the end of the story as far as that goes. so stop asking or saying that you want a custom ship. We are sticking to SB's rules. which say that fact. KK dont leave yet. just see what hapens with this
KK, you're leaving?! At least give the story a chance to start...
Well, if KK are leaving, does anybody object if I take his Mercenary position? (I'd really rather be a Mercenary than a Confed, as I stated when I first signed up for this story.)

Hum-hum...
The dark background of the EV board page has reached us Lets get some light back Even though war awaits us By getting the writters back
-New ships in the beginning should be EVish and respect the side they belong to. -New outfits in the beginning should be evolutions of Ťcurrentť technology. -The possibility of new ships at each three pages. Governments have to consider the costs and time to replace, upgrade, ameiliorate the chain production, entire fleets and defence fleets -Colonisation of a planet in order to implement a large base would take at a bit less time than constructing a military stardock. Sending massively civilians to another planet in orther to settle perfectly, should take a long time because of the infrastructures, the more important defence fleet, the needs of the people being different from military ones. -ŤThis space it left intentionally blankť for things evolve.

Asriel I object, It looks like JD has droped out, Anakin Solo is not sure if he wants to keep playing or not. If you can't stand the thought of being a 'Fed and really, really want to be a Merc thats fine, but we really, really do need you on our side. Especially considering that I will not be able to play much in June because I have a job that keeps me away from the internet.
