[OOC] From Stardust, To Stardust

[darkwolf687]

Sorry its so short, I'm extremely busy atm

[Monkeypants]

Sorry Apollo, lol. I figured a pirate ship showing up like a boss would really exemplify the dangers of the open, unprotected outer space. The traders just do not have enough ships to patrol the highways and the huge region that they technically own. The traders have strong stationary scanners but they only reach so far.

[Apollo26]

Lol it's np, the Aradites can handle some pirates. It probably won't be clean or particularly honorable ( sorry Lorca) but pirates will die. My plan is to lure them onto the ship somehow and kill em off initially. My backup plan would be to land SF or SOF onto the exterior with explosives and do em that way. Either way everyone on the ship will fight to the bitter end, even if it means destruction of the Tumen.

[Monkeypants]

Not sure about y'all's nations area but pirates and privateer aren't push overs round these parts! Should be interesting to see how it plays out though. I like the idea of landing a guy to set a charge. Fun mental image.

[Apollo26]

I never said it would come without casualties or some major damage. The ship might crush mine but once those SOF troops get in the ship......I shudder to think I also hope the pirates like shiny things more then they like the ship. They wont get either but, its a good distraction

[Keyguyperson]

I'd like to point out how absolutely insane it is to have pirates in space. Now that I've done that, I'd like to say that Terrans will so totally be buying alien ships to become pirates. Why alien ships? Mainly because Terran civvie ships are taxed to hell and back, have outdated weapons, and no FTL or shields.

[Apollo26]

Why you post in OOC...... post in IC, we have drinking,smoking and lots of eating to do for this festival!!

@Keyguyperson

I got the Legion Collective up in the Character bin if you wouldn't mind briefly taking a look, specifically at the "other" section as that's really the only place with new stuff.

[Apollo26]

Oh god, ive discovered how to make memes...

[Monkeypants]

Pirates in space is for the totally insane! If done right, it works well.

@Apollo26

Oh don't worry, if the pirates themselves are Lorca, the most dishonourable thing right now would be for them to have stolen a destroyer and flew in the opposite direction to the fighting rofl. Of course, that could make them much more dangerous as they might not be opposed to using underhanded tactics thrmselves as a result haha

[Monkeypants]

There's no telling who those fella's are but.. For story purposes, may I auto-hit your scout? Not gonna kill it or anything BUT id like something to happen! That may have been a pm request but hey, I didn't want to pull a duck and have an auto turret just pop up and mow your guys down with no chance to even play it out.

@Monkeypants

You win Keyguy points for being a better roleplayer than me and asking permission for that. How many Keyguy points? I don't know, take as many as you like.

[Apollo26]

I have no problem with it, even if you didn't ask me I knew I was going to take some damage regardless lol.

[Keyguyperson]

I'm working on a post involving some new contacts, and I wanted to know if I could possibly crash the whole pirate and Septonian party. EDIT: It'll be the next post. I wanted to get something out and a blob of 2416 words is enough for me. 4000 words, while impressive, is a bit too much for a single post of mine.

[Monkeypants]

So, Apollos ship got all busted up. Lesson? Pirates aren't idiots and can have any type of lovely ship I can think of to enforce this,(at least in my region of space) its best to stay in the "safe" areas. (In or really near the FTL highways) Also @KeyGuy, no, Pirate situation is local. Under normal circumstances I'd say I suppose so but pirates round' these parts are very careful. Usually preying on stragglers or the unfortunate (aradites). Pirates use advanced ECM and stealth systems (if everyone saw one coming, they'd run.) so the area isn't going to be obvious.

[Unfortunately]

Awaiting interaction/first contact...

[Monkeypants]

Can those who haven't posted their NS in the "Characters", please do so? I'm not too keen on digging for NS's for information regarding a players nation Thanks yo!
