To all: I agree. I will post turn 9 and then stop. BTW to keep things simple, I would suggest that instead of saying what turn each individual player is currently on just post as the current turn (in other words everyone is currently on turn

To gunblader: To avoid clutter I will post a reply to your shipyard question in the OOC post.

Corsairs finish their construction of the previous forces. Updates ship deployment:

Omicron Gamma Defense Force:
20 LF Legoinarre Class
17 VHF Titan Class

Omega 41 Defense Force:
10 LF Legoinarre Class
4 HF Centurion Class
6 VHF Titan Class

Omega 5 Defense Force:
10 LF Legoinarre Class
10 VHF Titan Class

New Construction:
Border Station (Small Base At Omicron Gamma Side of the Jumphole from Omicron Theta to Omicron Gamma)

Tripoli Shipyard Construction:
1 Freighter
1 VHF Titan Wing

Diplomatic Actions:

Talks continue with the Kusari House Officials: Offers are for corsair mercenaries and their Titan VHF to serve alongside the Kusari military and to give amnesty to all Kusarian Nationals passing through Corsair controlled spaceways and ceasing of piracy and smuggling within Kusari space. Corsair mercenary wings would cost 10% additional in their price for the Kusari as standard VHF wings available to the Corsairs themselves. In exchange corsairs wish for pardons on previous crimes, a military alliance, and ability to use Kusarian shipyards for capital ship production.

Diplomatic Envoys are sent to Liberty, Bretonia, and their old enemies the Outcasts to negotiate similar trade and possibly military arrangements. Envoys sent to Rheinland expect considerably less progress and only for now press a truce.

Technology:
Still waiting moderators word on the 6 fighter research upgrade attempts
1 Additional upgrade attempt is made to the anti fighter weapons on the LF

Remaining Resources.
15 credits, 18 food, 12 metal, 12 H-Fuel, 2 Metal, 8 Oxygen, 1 Water

Ok, I think when Outcast said to "not go past turn 8" he was implying to the newcomers that they not post any more of THEIR turns either, because ww2jacob will NEVER catch up with all this. Someone freeze this freakin' thing.

In a surprising move by the Unioners, an amnesty treaty has been agreed on. We will send 2 cruisers and 10 LF wings to aid them in their attack on the Xeno base in Bering. We will afterwards take control of the base and in return give them two bases now belonging to Republican shipping (haha, I can to anything we want to RS because I'm authoritarian...)

The Unioners will get Altona station (small) and Alster Shipyard (small) in Hamburg. And, as RS officials are corrupt and annoying, The Rhienland government will seize all their bases. Attacks on Altona and Alster will commence tomorrow...or whenever Jacob gets back.

Maybe he's dead....

uhh...what did I just say in my last post? FREEZE THE BLOODY RPG!!!!! No more turns.

Of course I have no real authority, but I'm sure DSQrn and Outcast would agree with me on this one.

To Samura:

I hate to throw water on your fleet building dreams again, but corporations can't build capital ships. Considering that your primary strengths are economic I don't see why you would waste money on capital ships anyway. Rember the golden rule:
"Whoever has the gold (or in this case Metals and H-Fuel) makes the rules."

Umm, the blood dragons are extreme leftists disgusted with corporate corruption of the Kusari house, I think Samura Industries is probably one of these groups, it'd be really odd for them to make an alliance.

As for turns, I thought that meant once we get up to turn 8, I apologize. When is he expected to return , btw.

UNFREEZE!
Jacob's back!!!

Sorry, this got a bit out of hand since my brief absence.
Geez, can't a guy take a vacation, kill some aliens, save Earth, and blow up some stuff in peace?
(hint, hint... Halo 2 )

Okay, I'm back.
Your results will be up soon.

Okay, I have the results of the explores/techs.
Can someone please post all of the battles and forces?

Correct me if I missed anything.

VD-
VHF- 3, Success
Explore- 2, Success (1 Terraformable Planet, I think)

Outcast-
5x LF FA- 9,2,9,2,7: 2 Success, 3 Failure

Arillias-
2x Explore- 4,4 2 Success (I think 2 systems with no planets)
Specify your LF. (FA, CA, FD, CD)

TRFL-
Explore- 3 Success (I think 1 System with no planets)

Rich-
Explore- 4 Success (Same as Arillias)

That's it. Correct me if you see anything wrong or missing.
Many successes for you lucky fools!
Everyone gained something.

You did, btw, I'm Triyun new head of the Corsairs, I don't think I've introduced myself.

Corsairs have 7 fighter upgrade research projects pending that you missed.
+1 to everything on the Titan VHF
+1 Additional to CA on the Titan VHF
+2 FA to the Legionairre LF.

You forgot my VHF research.

(Scratches out his plans to put a base in colorado, and immediately starts plans to move major BHG operations into the new system, which he shall call "Destiny". Meh, I'm a melodramatic guy at times. Since it seems only the newcomers are allowed to post, I'll wait for them to catch up.)

Captain of the Kep Salu

Trekkie and proud of it!

So...are we on turn 9 today? or is that tomorrow? and when is the battle stuff gettin' up?

Sorry to be such a pest...
