Riiight, well lets just hope that the Empire gets a few more players before the game starts.

I updated the (url="http://"http://members.aol.com/matrekie/empire/govs.htm")Governments Section(/url) of the Webstory site today. It now includes descriptions of all the Weave Member Races, as well as a few of the research options each faction will have available to it.

The TSE fleets nearly match your fleets. An excessive amount of players simply prevents coordination and slows down the whole.
Reading the rules carefully, you notice that the Weave Alliance itself gets $100M. That means that Bari gets about $95M, and my Presidential transport costs somewhere around $5M. Then, Calan gets $55M, Hunn'sta gets I think $45M, Brox gets $55M, and Sauridia gets $65M. Total, I believe the Weave gets $320M for fleets.
I've been convinced to take Darven. Looks like a nice place. Although I'm also taking the rather 2 bad other Pirate systems left. But they shall rise!
Stuff later.

They want me to play - I'll skim EMPIRE (the plug-in) later, although from the little I already know it seems reasonable enough. I'm just a little upset about plasma emitters, that's all. Trust RMA to get his hands on a weapon like that. Anyway, if I play, it would be Sauridians, and I've heard some doubt as to whether the Sauridian player is currently around. I'm still fuming about a few things, however, and I'll need a map. I can't plot without a map.
Everyone be good in this story? I'm sure Ipvicus won't mind too much if I kipperslap anyone who even hints at using OOC knowledge until they wish they'd never heard of fish. And so you know what "using OOC knowledge" is, it means when a post is affected by information that the player's character would not know, e.g. the content of other peoples' posts, and information over e-mail and instant message. Believe me, if it's used, the user will regret it.
Other words, let's have fun!

I asked Ipvicus if we could also upgrade the ships carried on our flagships. He said we could. All stats are in resedit. The Corporation of Darven took over Pirates Cove and Privateers Haven in what could be termed a hostile takeoever. The Corporation of Darven are essentially corporates with no ethics(yes, oxymoron). Pirate fleet stats come later.

Wow... I may have put my foot in my mouth with that one. There are several problems with those upgrades, one being that you can't have multiple laser miniguns on one ship.

Minor rules update. Weave member race capitols only have defense fleets consisting of 50 Million credits, instead of the 100M of other Capitols. Also The major factions and the two Pirate factions will be getting 35M credits at the begining of the game to use on minor fleet purchases and research. Keep in mind any ships that you build with that 35M need to follow the new construction rules.
I have also added several research options to the Governments page. Rak if you don't mind I would like you to get in touch with me on any specific research options you might want. ------------------ Out ride the sons of Terra, Far dirves the thundering jet, Up leaps the race of Earthmen, Out, far, and onward yet - Robert A.

HI Everyone, I was just wondering how this works. I have read most of the posts here, and some background info on Empire, but I dont understand how this webstory is to be played...
Is it just a case of type in what youre doing, who youre shooting at and how much damage you do? How do you determine who kills who objectively?
------------------ I came here to kick ass and chew bubblegum... and I am all out of bubblegum
Good questions. The thing about Webstories is that every situation is unique, so there is never really a set way to determine what is going to happen. To answer your question more directly most of the time we take into account the relative capablities of the forces involved (things like numbers, weapons, speed, shielding and the like) then other less tangible things like tactics and strategy... and depending on the situation either of these could win out above the other. If you want examples of past webstories you should do a search for "Battle For Sol" a now dead series of Webstories on this board.
Well we seem to be getting some more experienced players now. Do you know when you will be releasing the map?
Ipvicus: I'm assuming that this is going to be mainly a battle webstory like most of the other EV ones...
(That is, not focusing on character development.)
This webstory will focus mainly on the warfare aspect of the EMPIRE Series, although character development would be nice as well. I know I intend to develop my character to a certain extent.
