Nation Building Interstellar Empires: Interstellar Communications Network

[HighSanguinaryPriest]

I'm back online, and I have some things to say.

1. Some empires are pretty damn powerful, which I will still accept. I intended this RP to use mid-high tier calcs.
2. Empires having a thousand plus planets under their control is perfectly acceptable, though I will impose a limit of fifteen thousand. The galaxy's a big place, so empires will still find themselves fairly far apart from each other.
3. Population. Yes, population. I'd say it's fairly realistic for an interstellar empire to have more than a hundred billion citizens. However, I shall impose a limit of no more than two trillion. That goes for you, HighSanguinaryPriest . We can't have an empire with four sextillion people.
4. This RP is more or less on the soft side of things. Different empires have different hardness when it comes to realism. You can have an empire of space elves if you want. My empire is more on the harder side of science fiction, although just barely.
5. I have decided to disallow instant FTL travel. We really can't have battleship rushes. However, your empire may still have a travel speed of more than a thousand lightyears per day.
6. The range of most capital ship weapons would probably be in the mid-megaton range. I don't think I will allow conventional ship weapons to be in the high-gigaton to teraton range, because that will probably be enough to oneshot almost everything.

Anyway, that's all I have to say for now.

problem fixed

 

[Karcen]

ok i fixed my really fast ship still need more work on the military

 

[Zaltusinel]

Due to delays and technical issues, it may be some time before I can complete my sheet. However, the history should be worth the wait.

 

[Kloudy]

Oh yeah, I still need to do mine. :/

 

[Karcen]

i need to figure out mine in a longer form as well i have a huge time frame but there isn't to much to say

 

[general ostruppen]

So does that include Hyperdrive?

 

[Karcen]

i think i have figured out a new ship that fits a repurposed mining station the world ships

HighSanguinaryPriest That's still a high number, and with only eight planets, that's more than two hundred billion per planet. It'd advise you to revise your sheet, but if that's what you want, then confirm.

Hey we need to talk about the balance of this. First of all, do you have Discord or anything like that?

final edit...

I have Discord, yes, but it doesn't work on the WiFi I'm using now. If you want to discuss, discuss here or in PM.

We can discuss here, I was just talking about maybe making a Discord chat for it. Pm me if you're interested and ill send out links.
So Corrosion... let's talk about the balance here. This is a pretty OP kind of game and I think we should tone it down a lot. We can still be intergalactic empires just not as huge.

This RP isn't intergalactic. I also understand the balancing issues, which is why I added a set of rules. I see that there are some powerful empires, and some not as powerful, which is why this RP doesn't focus on war yet. It has a focus more on political relations and exploration.

We have a race with hundreds of billions of robotic troops, an army of 8 billion spartans, and almost everyone has anti-matter weaponry.

 

[Corrosion]

Yes, I can see that, which is why I'm still in the progress of deciding balance. I'm quite busy now, so I'll clear things up later.

 

[Zaltusinel]

I'll continue work on my faction's history tomorrow. If you can drop a read and give me some events to touch on and other advice, it would be appreciated!

 

[general ostruppen]

I'm looking at Karcen cs and first thing I spot is a literal planet ship ._.

 

[Karcen]

Yeah i am toosing out fun ideas its a repurposed mining station

 

[Karcen]

They could also serve as the home for the animuculi given they dont really use or live on the worlds they watch

 

[Yonsisac]

*Scratches head a bit*
Man mine is the lowest population out of any other, well i guess its fine, they are rather advance, so quality over quantity.
I really don't know what is declared "Balance" but meh its not a war thing yet XD

 

[Karcen]

Your race is rather neat

 

[general ostruppen]

I am still quite concerned that you have a planet with what appears to have a mouth.

 

[Karcen]

Well it is meant to mine a planet useing that mouth but again the race is very passive so unless you purposefully get on their really bad side you will never see them

 

[general ostruppen]

Also it would be nice to include a sort of character driven within the rp, that way we can occupy ourselves with the exploration part or screw around in our neighboring sectors. I could even start having fun with my military lol

 

[Karcen]

Arent you going to be invading and at war with everyone everywhere from day one
