Can also teach vassal/ be the vassal arm of someone's faction.
Not sure I'm leadership material just yet.
The Mandalorians will happily accept you, on the grounds that we accept any old riffraff. 😁

@Ardaedhel @rasproteus who will it be?
If no response we will begin in 21 hours.
Man... I really want to hop in but I really really don't have time. Which is a shame, cause this looks like it might be a hoot.
I've been watching the thread and temptation is deep... but... no... *stares at pile of undone work*
I'll follow along and if it comes around again hopefully I'll be able
Power just went out literally as I was about to post my list. In the middle of a big winter storm so who knows when it'll be back. I'll have to bow out.
Yeah I dont got Vassel either
Yeah, sorry to post and run. I am not sure I have time for it either. Go go gadget @Ardaedhel

ARE YOU AT Y??? this is very important to me
The syndicate prefers to avoid immediate conflict with you
If Ard can't make it, I can join in as the 9th player.
Imperials, +1 Economy.
Time zone is USA EST.
Should I choose a starting fleet now? If so, what are the requirements and limits? I understand no upgrades, commander or unique squadrons, but how "big" is it to begin with?

So we do that now? How do I know which planets to pick when all the planet bonuses are question marks?

That's apart of the fun Haha I believe all our starting planets are equal however.
And yes the game technically already is in turn one so ASAP
The Fully Unprepared Novice Knaves are...uhh...almost ready.
Since Our people's Capitals seem inhabit the same System and look upon the same sun in our skies i purpose we move forward openly so not to create unneeded violence.
I will be establishing forward bases for all sorts of illicit activity on B and T this turn. i will not move on C, G so your people can expand as well.

Actually, MOFO would like everyone to stay off G...

At sundown we march for war!
I would like to propose a Sector first Contact treaty:
By signing this treaty your faction promises to have a non-violent first contact protocol with all other factions in the game, this means you will not make any unprovoked attacks, blockaids or Invasions. Your Defense forces will also not fire upon Intruders unless fired upon or the Intruders are in clear violation of a previous warning. In return you will receive the same treatment.
If you desire to go to war a formal Declaration of war must happen before any attack is made in order to meet the requirements of this treaty.
Violation of this treaty will result in boycotts by the other signers of the treaty and the other signers have permission to respond with deadly force against the violators.

I too will agree to this treaty, upon clarification: I assume this means that all fleets will be set to only fire if fired upon? If only moving fleets are set to that, they will be attacked by the defenders of occupied worlds they accidentally stumble onto whilst exploring.

Yep, any shots fired without a declaration of war will be in violation of this treaty. Added a clarifying sentence regarding Defense forces.
Edited by clontroper5Welcome Bertie Wooster!
We have 9 players, and the game will begin shortly. I will start a new thread in a few hours for In Character (IC) conversation, news, threats, treaties, etc. This thread will continue for rules discussion, questions, and Out of Character (OC) conversation about the game. Anyone is welcome to post in this thread, but the IC thread is only for players and the GM please.
Please send me a PM if you do not have the benefits or disadvantages of your SIDE BONUS stated explicitly - I know I have missed some.
I still need to move some planets, give secret objectives, etc, which I will do in the next few hours. Please do not plan 17 turns in advance, things are still in flux.

Ok, I will restrain myself to 15 turns in advance

You lack vision. Clearly, you must look beyond the hurdles. Plan for 18 turns.
Also:

The Mandalorians are interested in this treaty, but for the time being will be looking into more local agreements where necessary.
The P-H Consortium will ratify your treaty. If it is determined that you have taken our sacred chalice, then we will send you straight to the penalty box!
Under circumstances like these, the Oldest Unprepared Member of the Fully Unprepared Novice Knaves (FUNK) gives his wisest wisdom to the Youngest Unprepared Member, who will communicate with the other party.
"Sign the treaty," the OUM advises the YUM. "We can't afford any casualties this early on." The YUM nods, clears his voice and responds to the 5th Sector Authority. "We will not sign the treaty, lest it impede upon our inheritance of receiving victory points." The OUM sighs. Such is often how it goes, as it was when even he was the Youngest.
The FUNK has spoken; they will not sign.
