Infintium, A Space Opera

Are the app sheets going to be the same? I may just make an app this week if so.

Slowboatting to Alpha Centuari

Makes sense to me.

Always can mail them as Popsicles.

Slowboatting to Alpha Centuari

You are super genius.

Get ten astronauts to Alpha Centuari on NASA's budget.

Infintium, A Space Opera

Whatever, what matters more is that there's some consistent style and I have humanoids to use anyways.

Infintium, A Space Opera

Really it just needs to be a space opera without magic (who needs magic when you have lasers and hyperdrives?) and some sense of focus.

Biggest Rp Pet Peeve

Grammar-School levels of soft science in Science Fiction roleplays.

@Terminal

I get more fed up with sci-fi RPs that lack a coherent style than sci-fi that's soft with humanoid aliens. If there's a Galaxy where lizard people and humanoid aliens are in a Cold War and cosnsitent with the mentality it is going for, I'd be fine with it.

It's when nothing has any coherency/focus or you get the try-hards who focus on "realistic sci-fi" only to proceed to make laughably cliched aliens that I start losing interest. Than again I get bothered by people who seem more concerned on the technical details on some fictional spaceship than like, a story.

I can't tell you how many NRPs I lost interest in because of that one faction which rubbed me the wrong way that was allowed to exist. It's just too many.

Infintium, A Space Opera

I have interest and quite a few kinds of esoteric alie civilization to experiment with. Small housecat sized aliens (they aren't cat people. That's just their size. I mention this because I know there's people on this site whose idea of a space universe consists of space elves, furry aliens, greys and people who have a goofy face) with Escher inspired architecture perhaps?

Some questions:

-When it comes to defining chemistry, does this essentially boil down to stating something like "they have a biochemistry suited for a chlorine heavy atmosphere" or "their DNA is right handed instead of left handed and have food that is universally toxic to humans" or "Living on the fringes of star systems, they utilize a liquid helium solvent"? Do factors like what gas they breathe or if they like of chemosynthesis instead of photosynthetic agriculture factor into that section?

-Can it be assumed that life with earth-like conditions has edible food half the time (due to handedness)? (Or basically aliens who have a chemical basis on a world like earth with water, oxygen producing autotrophs/Cyanobacteria & 'yellow' (as opposses to red from the plebeian (red dwarf) stars) light?). I ask this because I know there's people who believe that DNA languages will be as diverse as spoken or computer languages. However space opera demands more personal interract with denizens of the galaxy and it's hard to have personal interaction when all the life is toxic to each other. Not to mention space operas tend to be human-centric and chauvinism for our own biochemistry is pretty much inevitable (gives us more food options too).

-What is the setup exactly? Is this going to be like Babylon 5 with more alien denizens about the Galaxy or are things considerably more "anarchic" per say (i.e. No space UNs)?

-Is there a map? If galactic which Galaxy map are we using? I have a vector Galaxy map I can send to you if you have illustrator.

-What FTL system is involved? Is it a worm hole network? Is there hyperspace? Or is it Star Trek warp drives?

A Hostile Galaxy [Science Fiction Civilization Political Simulator]

We are sticking to theo's ruleset right? The last time a RP lost its GM things fell out of thematic focus fast and I am a bit worried similar may happen here.

A Hostile Galaxy [Science Fiction Civilization Political Simulator]

Are the Aveterriat good to go?

A Hostile Galaxy [Science Fiction Civilization Political Simulator]

OKAY.

This is what I need:

1. If you have been ACCEPTED but do not have a present ledger, PM me so I can get it up.

2. If you have posted an application but have been neither rejected or accepted, PM me as well.

The OOC is moving too fast for me to shift through it all.

EDIT
1. Added Kingdom of the Vaal ledger.
2. Added Isari Combine ledger.
3. Added New Arkadian Empire ledger.
4. Added Fioliun Empire.

Have I missed anything, anyone?

If the box by your empire's name is not checked it means you have not submitted a PM with your civilization's actions, please do so now. Then the next turn begins.

@Theodorable

I think you missed my Civ.
