Didn't the GM state in the interest check that yes, he did have a background to quit after putting up a role-play and before it started, and promised he wouldn't duck out of this one? Odd. I'm making a role-play myself for now, anyways, similar to this. Its not done yet, though.

I look forward to it.

Is this up? I've read you ahve some cocnerns with the GM. I'd very much like to join.

Yeah, it would be very nice to get this going but the GM has not been here for weeks so we are conspiring to put someone else in charge. This would be OK, but we have no idea how the game works...

Stardust [Sci-Fi Political Nation RPG]

I'll leave this for a day before proposing my ideas for a game system, but only if the GM hasn't returned at this point.

Also, ShinySurskit, not that I want to point out flaws in your beautifully written background information, but when we talk about fleets I'm fairly sure he means large fleets of thousands of warp-capable battle cruisers, as opposed to fleets of star fighters.

Stardust [Sci-Fi Political Nation RPG]

I agree but he hasn't explained how fleet and army movement/combat; trade; diplomacy etc. works.

Stardust [Sci-Fi Political Nation RPG]

We're just waiting for it to start, ready with all our hype.

Stardust [Sci-Fi Political Nation RPG]

I'm wondering how combat, fleet movement and armies work...

This gives me the opportunity to flesh out my nation's fluff.

Civilization Name: True Socialist State of Free Planets
Civilization Homeworld: Leningrad
Civilization Creation: (30 Points to spend. You start with 1 System for free.)
- Colony: 2 = 10
- System: 2 = 9
- Fleet:
- Army:1 = 2
- Agent:
- Commander:
- Alliance:
Species Description: Humanoid
Brief History: When the Autocrats won, as they call it, the Great Patriotic Civil War, the remaining Conservatives evacuated their planet and fled many light years away. They set up colonies and named themselves the True Socialist State of Free Planets. They condemned the Autocrats and consider the SSFP as a corrupt nation. They joined the Galactic Conclave and lobbied for an allied force to go out and liberate the citizens of the SSFP from a totalitarian rule. The Conclave have constantly denied requests for two main reasons. The first is that they do not want to risk losing a large portion of their combined military might due to the constant threat of invasion from the Imperium of Savas. The second is that whilst they remain suspicious of the SSFP and its recent military and industrial reforms, the SSFP has not actually partaken in any hostile actions against the Conclave. This has placed the TSSFP in a difficult position as they are not a powerful nation in any military sense and would make them the first target of military occupation by the SSFP...
Member of Galactic Conclave: Yes

Hey man! Application looks good. Where would you like to be on the galactic map?

I would like to be on the 3 middle systems in the darker part of the right most blue bar, if that makes sense.

Hope this isn't too late and that this RP can actually get going as you look like you put a lot of effort into it.

NATION SHEET
Civilization Name: Socialist State of Free Planets (SSFP)
Civilization Homeworld: Jugashvili
Civilization Creation: (50 Points to spend. You start with 1 System for free.)
- Colony:
- System: 3 = 27
- Fleet: 3 = 9
- Army: 3 = 6
- Agent: 2= 8
- Commander:
- Alliance:
Species Description: Humaniod
Brief History: Two centuries prior to the current Galactic Standard Year, citizens of the solar systems that make up the current Free Worlds Confederacy fled their homelands to create the Socialist State of Free Planets. The SSFP initially flourished under a communist rule with Marxist ideals and was led by a kind and good leader, Ivan Jugashvili. Whilst his party reigned, the SSFP colonised three systems and peacefully lived apart from other galactic nations. Once Jugashvili died chaos consumed the nation. No one knew who was going to lead the SSFP. The three systems all declared themselves as different factions and civil war broke out and raged for fifty years. The three factions were the Marxists, a group who wanted more power to the people; the Conservatives, who wanted to keep the same system as was in place before; and the Autocrats, a nation who wanted all the power to be given to the leader and his party. The Autocrats become the victor and now the SSFP is now in its current state. It is ruled by the Chancellor of the State, Josef Shostakovich. The nation has just come out an industrial reform that favored the military. It is clear this nation now has much more ambitious intentions than to simply exist in exile...

Pre-Departure Scene

The Yamashiro left the Iserlohn Fortress leading a regular patrol of several battleships. As the ship leaft port and exits the fortress the ship's commanding officer, Captain Yuichi Nagato, spoke to his adjundent, Commodore Michael Tabron.
"I feel uneasy; Prince Lohengramm has not yet made any attempt to capture the fortress."
"He must be planning something big, Sir," said Commodore Tabron, "it'll be a good challenge for Admiral Wen-li."
"I agree Commodore. I have been waiting a year to see those two geniuses come to blows again."

The patrol cruised further along the Iserlohn corridor before the Chief of Engineering picked up an object coming out of warp directly in front of the floatilla.
"Sir, there is an object coming out of warp."
"How large is the object?"
"Very large, Sir!"
"I want specifics, Commander. How large?"
"Approximately six trillion tonnes Sir!"
"We'll be swallowed up by the opening in space if we don't retreat!" Cries Commodore Tabron.
"Pilots, steer us out of here," ordered Captain Nagato.

It was too late. The object exited warp but the Yamashiro didn't have enough time to see the object before they were sent spiraling between universes.
Every warning light, noise and alarm sounds.
