CdrPlatypus, what is the best way to ensure you hear our will? The counsel of Alta Mesa had quietly requested that or colony ship be sent north and west, as reports indicated a perfect system on the very fringe of our sector. We will be louder, next time. /ooc honestly, everyone, this entire process will go much faster/easier of this thread is used only for posting each faction's request to the VoC. Any other discussion should take place in your own faction's chambers, as the chatter makes this whole thing more difficult to run (not that you aren't doing it well, CdrPlatypus)

Point of order: Does the Voice of Consensus currently posses the Alta Mesa skin pack? I believe that it would be appropriate for my Clan's ships to be differentiated, if possible, from the, shall we say, piles of nuts, bolts, and empty vudka crates contributed by our fellow Factions. CdrPlatypus.

Templar CdrPlatypus, unless the other great clans have any input, we of Zenrin believe the Explorer ship should be sent to the Anomaly and to scan the southeast sector. We are still discussing research. Feel free to stop by our counsel chambers if you need any info.

The delegation from Alta Mesa concurs with this, ntsheep's suggestion. Our suggestion concerning research is to rush everything until we get to Factories. Then we can focus on researching colony transports. We appear to be relatively isolated in this sector, so it is our wish that we focus on strengthening our primes before we begin expansion, so that if our first colonies are of poor quality, we aren't left crippled.

The Zenrin have our build orders ready, Voice.
We first wish for another Hab Unit after our first Mine is done. Folowed by a Factory And then more Mines until we research Exchange 1 and/or Templar Command are ready to build Colony Ships

Here Is your updated map Faction representatives: Top 2 new planets bottom to top: flamesong: 2-22, 4-20 ; Theobroma C: 2-24, 4-18 Zenrin is doing an excellent job of presenting it's proposals to the Templar (nice orderly in one - two posts) you are commended for your organization. While others scramble in chaos you persevere head on. Shulun is proud! dragolord the Templar CIC systems are capable of visually representing ships in real time (yes I have the alta mesa skins. When you design something beyond the stock ships I will differentiate it) bookworm21 /OOC sorry I didn't post a hard turn deadline that was my bad. I think I have enough to run a turn cycle, but just in case // The Templar expects all reports to be in by tomorrow 3PM PST. /ooc to summarize what I have down so far please let me know if I missed something: 2 votes for explorer to explore anomaly 1, Zenrin' s build plan, Mok wants a 2nd hab, 2 votes for Starship Construction 1 as 2nd tech

/ooc Sorry for the rough start. My first time running a forum game in a long time. Everyone around a table with d20s is what I'm used to. ROLL WILL SAVE BITCHES! So, I am am running through the old community game threads and listening as I go. I want to get a keyed map going like johndramey had in his game. It will take me a little while to get that going though For communication The Templar will pop in and out of the Clans individual threads with clan specific concerns and reminders. stuff for everyone will be posted here. From you guys Final votes/policy decisions and inter clan trash talk should be posted here. How long do you want turn cycles to run IRL 24hrs, 48hrs, etc...? Appreciate feedback

Voice, may I offer my apologies. We had finished deliberations, but had neglected to post our decisions here. Allow me to rectify the situation:
It is our suggestion that the scout ship focus on revealing nearby space, identifying likely systems and exploring any anomalies it may find.
As for our Prime, We request that two mines be build as quickly as possible, then a hab unit. Past this, we entrust short term build order as Templar Command sees fit.
Concerning research, it is our opinion that we forgo ship construction to research Factories as quickly as possible. Once we have unlocked this, we should then work to bring colonization to the forefront, researching Ship Construction One. It is our firm opinion that we should first work to strengthen our respective primes, because if our second colonies prove to be less than favorable, we won't be crippled because of it.
This is our will.

Every 48 hrs is my vote gundam.
That gives our teams, who are probably all on different time zones/schedules a chance to decide on a course of action.

State of the Empire; end cycle 2
Our brave explorers ventured into anomaly 1 for the good of the empire and with the blessing of Shulun what they found generated 50RP for the empire! This allowed us finish Researching Starship construction 1 quickly.
Our venerated Templar fleet has discovered 2 more anomalies, 3 white dwarf star system, and 1 yellow star system Our Explorer however has run out of water-fuel and is refueling in orbit of the Honorable Alta Mesa Prime. Once she is resupplied she will venture back into the void to explore the 2 new anomalies.
The Templar cartographer's are having some trouble with their systems that were damaged in the exodus, but rest assured they are working diligently to get a proper map prepared for this honorable council. (If they don't I may kick one out the airlock for motivation).
Colony Reports:
Zenrin Prime: Pop 2/3 quality 3/18 mine 2/17 factories 2/2
Completed 1x hab, 1x mine and is working on another hab
Moklumnue Prime: pop 2/4 qulity 3/28 mine 1/18 factories 2/2
completed 2x hab and working on a mine
Alta Mesa Prime pop 1/3 quality 2/20 factories 1/2 mine 1/26
completed 1x hab working on a mine
Honorable Faction representatives. With the technology recovered by our scientists with the help of our explorers we may now build Strike Fighters, Colony Ships, and, Factories.
We must now determine What our next research path will be: Planetary Construction 2, Starship Construction 2 or lvl 1 of one of the Faction specific techs (OOC// I recommend not going for faction techs at this time //)
Also you must begin negotiations regarding territory. Soon we will be able to found new colonies and we MUST for the continued survival of humanity! HAIL SHULUN!
OOC// So, what I need from the faction council right now before the next cycle is a vote on the next technology to be researched. I am assuming you all still agree to explore anomalies ASAP.
If one of you wants to start on a colony ship or strike fighter let me know or I will continue managing colonies for a basic path of habs, mines, factories to 4CP. Once hitting 4CP on a prime I will queue a colony ship unless your respective faction objects. Then you may tell me what you want built instead.
I am working on making a keyed map, but it is going to take me some time due to IRL constraints, but you can start negotiating among yourselves now without a map. I imagine the main thing to fight over is who gets the Yellow system for their second colony.
This cycle is only going to last 24hrs because I don't need many decisions before starting the next one. The cycles after this will most likely be extended to 48hrs.
Also I want each clan to elect a head representative who may make a vote by themselves if no one else shows up to the party by a cycles end for whatever reason//
End Transmission

//OOC Announcement Housekeeping: I will be continually editing the first 3 posts in this thread. The first is gameplay rules. I have added general cycle length and deadline to the first post. The second post is the Templar's personal storytelling area where he gets to gripe about dealing with politicians. Read it if you like . And the third post is where I will be posting maps and system details when I get the time to do it proper. So, there is reason to occasionally check the front page of this thread. and Thank you all for playing!
