Title: Council's Gambit
Description: Just a quick idea description...

Sooo... the one day noob with an idea...

So... combat RPs... you ever get tired with those? Me to, on occasion... So, how about an interaction RP... long term :o

The council has granted humanity a seat, but the other species are discontent. And now, an idea has come forth. To help the species come together. A joint colony, backed by all species in citadel space, comprised of the same. The colony ship, Council's gambit, will set sail for a small planet in the argus rho system, with enough supplies for the voyage and to get the colony barebones. The first part will occur en route, the second during the building, and the finale will likely be combat involved, after establishment.

the main focus here is character interaction and romance/RL

sooo, any opinions...

I like it, need a highly advanced Alliance Frigate to tag along?

However, my characters would not suite well for being involved long term.

On second thought, need a Hacker to help set up computer systems, etc.

hmm, I suppose the council WOULD want to protect their investment... just realize, this might take a while for the combat to begin, or even get posted... Hmm... I gotta make a character...

Edit: yeah, that works to :)

I'm up for it as well. That would be a good honeymoon spot for Ethan and Leonne. I'm getting off topic a bit.

Stygium - March 29, 2008 05:05 AM (GMT)
Hmm, ok. I'll probly get this up by next week... also, remember, we're building a colony Rasen. hardwork will be involved...

Rasengod7 - March 29, 2008 05:35 PM (GMT)
Yeah I know. I was just joking. ^_^

Athena - March 29, 2008 05:45 PM (GMT)
Interesting topic... I might be able to bring back two more of my chars and have them help out ^_^

@Rasen: for all you know, Leonne could have a thing for Krogans... or Asari... actually, the latter would be more likely, she DOES own Chora's Den after all, lol

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:wub: :wub: :wub:
Ethan will still love her.

Who would Nero fall in love with? Quick! Someone make a hot anime chick! :lol:

Chase is on Olympia right now, but if he got a message from the Council and a good paycheck, he would be more the apt to come along : P

Sounds interesting, I'd be willing to participate. Would there be any need for a civil engineer, perhaps? I've got a character I started months ago but never finished waiting.

Stygium - March 30, 2008 05:26 PM (GMT)
You betcha we do unknown.

umm, anyone who wants to help design the gambit, please, contact me...
I will beg you.

Delta Team Curt - March 30, 2008 06:29 PM (GMT)
I can design the actual colony : P

What are the restrictions on building materials?

Kantz Larrekin - March 30, 2008 08:45 PM (GMT)
I'll probably join. I have the perfect character thought up.

Stygium - March 31, 2008 01:42 AM (GMT)
Ok, right After i create a char, design the ship, and collaborate with Delta on the colony itself, I'll get this up.

Woot. No sleep FTW :)

Delta Team Curt - March 31, 2008 01:46 AM (GMT)
Ill start on the plans pronto, i just need to know the amount of materials i can work with, how much military presence will be on the colony, and basic geographical aspects of it (Desert, snowy, earthlike?)

Stygium - March 31, 2008 01:57 AM (GMT)
Umm, token garrison, earth like, so a variety of biomes, but the main colony ... I'm seeing it in a rugged, foothill-esque region... maybe near a lake... yeah, I'm seein' a lake here... Likely a large stock of Pre-fab shelters were sent along with the ship, and we have the ship itself... but, that would have to stay in orbit... maybe as some kind of station, as its too big... unless... ok, forget the ship as building materiels FOR NOW and lets use the pre fabs and teh plastics and light metal sent with us. Yeah, a moderate amount of plastics and light metals, lets call it enough for a 5 storey office block. Sound good?

Delta Team Curt - March 31, 2008 01:58 AM (GMT)
Colony ships are meant to be scuttled usually, we have other ships to handle travel and such : P

Delta Team Curt - March 31, 2008 01:59 AM (GMT)
PS: I may or may not be able to do this, i have to go back to school so i may get stuck with to much homework to have spare time to plan it out. I should be able type up a good description of it if i run out of time to draw it : P

Stygium - March 31, 2008 07:05 PM (GMT)
Rough ship design is up, If you wanna see it :)
