If anyone wants to post here don't mind me I'll be asleep. Just keep the thread alive so it won't be wasted

Well... That was bothersome. Getting all the Root systems to agree to an unregulated seeding of feral droids did not go over lightly. A great deal of concern over shepherding the swarms, and if they somehow removed the Root override system for the eventual harvest.

It's not like we're using nanomachines or anything. The Trunk fabrication facilities are pretty static in design, only minor alterations to speed mineral extraction, or streamlining fabrication of its favored model are recorded.

Regardless, a consensus was reached. While by no means instant, we are looking at a 523% increase in military models within the next solar cycle. Civilians ships without Root systems are highly suggested to avoid all feral fabrication facilities. While programmed to be non-aggressive in their terravore diet, they will not spare any resource in securing the safety of their nesting sites.

>>53665518

I do not underand your fixation with calling a plague Sally. I know naming things trying to kill you can make it seem less horrifying, but of all names to pick.. Sally?

>>53665439
You may want to get to a xenobiologist right away anyways. Just because it seems benign doesn't mean it isn't just numbing the area as it consumes your bark.


>>53665491
The artisan guild is going crazy for these cosmic horrors. I need to find a glassblower to make me a xinpollen pipe shaped like you.

>>53665741
>She doesn't know the story of Blip Blop IV
oh boy so what do you know about what do you call her again M'gai?

>>53665841

We were only recently able to pick up, much less decipher your transmissions, so no. I have the feeling this is a rather unpleasant story.

Still, a bit of galactic history would do us well, I'm sure.

As it stands how do the Federations military forces fare against the extra dimensional foes that may threaten us?
>>53665428
Fellow Ambassador have any of your warmachines proven particularly effective against eldritch beings? And we are prepared to contribute a full expeditionary army of a million men to the Federation cause and to combat the Plague so we would be interested in seeing the weapons you could arm them with.

>>53665841
May i ask what do you mine? We are always interested in new materials.

>>53665841
>>53665940
So know that this is not the first time this "Virus" has visited this galaxy. Well before I was given such a high class position as Chief diplomat of xeno-relations I was a simple high energy surveyor like my kid here.
>Child convulses
The blip blop system houses two features mineral rich plants and had a pretty cool ringworld.
Turns out a bunch of species before Y'all had discovered that the only way to stop M'gai was to contain every last spore; well turns out when you put a sentient contagion into what is isolation then tell that you hate it for basically an eternity it's worldview gets a bit fucked.
So I'm on blip blop IV mining of course, when everyones like "Abandon Planet!" and such classics like "this was an unprofitable venture" and then they left me on the planet but not before leaving in such a hurry that one of our cruisers managed to dive stern first into the ringworld sending it on a convergent orbit.
So I'm locked on this planet with this virus, turns out,It's hella friendly; like I think my biology is a little to wonky for it to corrupt so we basically sat around and played scrabble for I think 200 years.
>>53666051
We mine whatever you need pal, You put in an order and we'll deliver; oh and uranium tons of it.

>>53666090
So I of course call my buddies and i'm like "Can you come swoop me?" and they slide so I'm like "Can I bring this little girl?" they also are ok with that so Sally gets some new friends. Keep in mind that Sally only wants to be friends... but she can be beaten. the point is she's a mental plague, your friends and family are still in there, but first we must beat her.

>>53666090
Ever do antimatter mining? It's extremely dangerous but the risk should be worth the reward. You might be awarded systems if you can aid the Empire.

>>53666157
Using Psionics!!!
MENTAL POWER FORCE GO!!!

>>53666204
Bruh antimatter mining, you mean starship fuel; of course Admiral. How much do you need my friend.

>>53666031

We have no idea. We've never had to fight such a being, and this is the reason for the feral release. We are relying on the synthetic natural selection to provide us with enough variants in weaponry that perhaps we will find some frequency capable of inflicting harm to them.

Our main hope is that due to the artificial nature of their minds, they will not be affected by the seeming aura of insanity that surrounds the beings. We are currently searching for the Roots with highest mental fortitude to lead the hordes.

We implore you avoid using organic beings to combat the eldritch beings. I would rather kilotons of matter be destroyed instead of a single organic consciousness be thrown to the possible slaughter.

>>53666090
We are always looking for new focusing material for our energy weaponry. If you have anything not native to our home system we'd be quite eager to establish trade deals. As for being stuck on an alien ring world with a sentient virus seems... Interesting. A pity it was isolated for so long, I can only imagine what it'd be capable of in the field of genetic engineering should it be guided towards more benign means.

>>53666220
Yes of course not for warheads but starships...
And we would be willing to offer you our protection and a high place in the Empire for this. Most of our starships still use fusion drives but antimatter will increase their capabilities immensely.

>>53666223
That what I'm saying, She wants to help but, she eats people so what gonna do?
>>53666280
Pal how about a better deal, You let my species simply be your general area around your species and we'll give you all the antimatter your little primate hearts could desire.

>>53666223
Well we have many organic beings ambassador that are willing to lay down their lives for their Empire and the Federation but i will take your advice in high regards.

>>53666223
Also.. you want some crystals I got plenty of those, energy weapons like crystals, plug a few of these babies into the focusing ring or equivalent and it'll be charged up to 111%!

>>53666303
And of course mining rights. But that seems to be satisfactory as long as no demented beings are brought into our reality,again.

Mainly fuel,information and minerals for our war machine. Do you know any defenses that might be effective against plasma based weaponry?

I think the best defense for plasma weaponry...is plasma shielding I'm being serious. I wanted to say more plasma weaponry but it seems you've got covered.

The boys in red sure do have some conquering ahead of them.

>>53666326

While I understand the call to war is great. We still have some young blooms who's sap is too hot, and work as thorn operators to slake their thirst. Still, better those lives laid down better be spent building up.

We have a wide array of Roots eager to test their metal in the upcoming war, and if you'd like to employ any of them, you'll find their prices to be quite competitive compared to organic mercenary groups. One consciousness leading a bestial swarm is quite cost effective, even if you may end up with the occasional feral leaf. No worse than local herbivorous fauna, although a bit more durable.

>>53666342
Better ratios are just that. Better. How many megatons can you provide? I'll see it used as a standard design template. Those rarely mutate, less when superior material is introduced to the matrix.

>>53666408
The last communication from Lead Pith was a very confused and worried exchange over how it was supposed to help the sapients asking for aid while they were dismantling his thorns at an astounding rate. His Trunk has attached itself forcibly to the colony ship, and has begun dismantling it for material to create medical leaves, based off the schematics his leaves were able to pull from the medical lab.

Control is still unobtained, but the six Creeper corvettes were able to push it off trajectory. Provided the plague victims do not reignite the engine, Lead Pith expects it to harmlessly drift into deep space.

Is it wrong that I liked the Cryptids and Extinction mode?

>>53666465
We have been researching into it but it is only now against the Cephalopods that our defenses are shown to be ineffective. Our mass drivers and heavy lasers however are not.

As for a joint research program, I've got entire valleys waiting for the chance to get off world and join new RnD groups. Our understanding of mental powers is limited. It was left to the realm of science fiction until just recently. We just hope that you can not break the brain of that which has no centralize mind.

>>53666557
No, he believes the situation is quite under control, just a matter of trying to actually help the people, not just mulch them for biofuel. He is finding the stoneborer wyrm designs to be very effective in clearing the crew corridors, if needlessly messy. He also approves of the metal used in construction of the colony ship. The Truck thinks its tasty.

>>53666547
>Sends a craft to pick up a unit of angry Andorian commandos to be used in coming boarding actions
I think their reactions will be quite hilarious to see. We shall not forget the fallen of the First Battle of Asteroid Run!

>>53666493
How about a joint military exchange? We will have a unit of your warriors fight along our forces and we shall deploy a unit of our finest in defense of your home world.

>>53666623
Good choice, our natural small size and the lack of spines make us great for squeezing into places best left...unsqueezed, and their photographic memories mean any and all intel gathered can played back, you simply must attach the Andronian into a machine capable of playback.

>>53666547

Gigatons would lead to quite the excessive surplus. No more than a few kilograms per focusing aperture for the largest of our energy lances.

Wait... Yes. We will happily purchase on that scale. I imagine a megastructure using the Astral star singer's harnessing of our star's energy, coupled with a lens able to focus it. And I like the idea of putting a giant jeweled ring around our star. Now THAT'S progress.

>>53666650
If you are willing to provide citizenship to the Roots, I'm sure you'd find some willing to join your Empire and provide their services, although Iron Bloom Incorporated still reserves all patent rights to designs produced by extra-national employees. And we are honored that would offer an honor guard to our humble home. We'll get to work establishing a proper barrack for them in the Valley of Iron Thorns. Please send any requests for designs. We'd like them to feel at home while so far away from home.

>>53666685
We are able to send our Roots forward to meet you there, however if we'd ask you pick up our organics at the Valley of Stars port. Our FTL system does not permit the transmission of organic life. Something about the dimension we violate to travel leads to brain death in organics.

The plus side, Roots Silver Taproot, Sodium Algae, and Uranium Acorn should be arriving before this message reaches you.

Iron Bloom Incorporated will not be signing any formal agreements, to ensure we have no conflict of business between various nations. We wish to remain neutral in matters of state.

That said, galaxy scale situations are something we all agree must be met with the full force of the galactic community, and we will offer the full force of our Root lead Tree combat groups to ensure the empires, kingdoms, federations, unions, and other assorted interdependent groups of sapients may be left in peace to pursue their passions without threat of extradimensional, galactic, or reality assault.

War might be good business, but the living generate more wealth than the dead.

Given the reports from Lead Pith, that is already happening, and I see no profits to be made in dealing with shambling corpses begging for aid.

He is unable to render medical aid, and is beginning full scale terminal and recycling of the entire ship. He projects full rendering of the ship in a standard month. He'll be dumping the biofuel into the nearest star once the atmosphere can no longer support combustion. His leaves all agree it smells wrong.

>>53666888

We all must eat, yes. But you still need to know when it is better to avoid that next bite of sweets, so you have it for tomorrow.

You, other set of voices, would you kindly stop tormenting the central consciousness? Her fear is making this worse around the galaxy where sapients are fighting her tendrils.

>Off screen panicked rustling

Send Titanium Teek's Tree out to assist Lead Pith then. Yes, yes, I know it charges a premium, the biofuel is causing thorns to rupture due to viral content. We need its small scale fusion plant design if we want to salvage that ship.

>>53667321

My comrads, to we are at an impasse, some of us are gone yet in the federation, we are strong.

>>53667391
We'll those mutants are just the 1st stage, see those necroships that are flying around are actually collecting the infected, the second stage, and then the third stage you get a form of central intelligence that my people refer to as , FUCKIN SALLY.

It's all a matter of keeping her contained her her whole

>>53667444

Oh. Now that is a plan I can get along with. Do you have a planet in mind, or looking to buy some real estate?

We do not have any Earth in our records. I assume its somewhere of importance.

As for a suitable planet, our further most colonized system has a fairly suitable world, provided "Sally" doesn't mind eating the same mats of rapidly dividing algae that cover the shallow oceans of the world. Given these necroships can endure the radiation of space, I'm sure the lacking magnetosphere won't bother her too much. She'll even have a few Roots to keep her company as they work on colonizing the system for our seedlings.

She'll have some local leaves to contend with. The planet in question has a very high rare metal content. Nothing more than the assorted transportation and extraction models. So long as her mass doesn't start groping their servos, they'll be sure to leave anything biological alone. I'll send the order to cease biofuel use on that planet as well. Here's a lovely little screen shot of the surface from orbital approach. Coordinates enclosed in the image.

We do not take kindly to threats of violence, and while I am sure you possess quite the military force, I made sure to not broadcast to the entire galaxy the existence of my species until I felt sure that anyone who tried to invade any of my corporate holdings would find any attempt to seize them in a hostile take over to find it a far greater cost in resources and sapient power than just offering me something I found to be of equal or greater value, even if that was less than the original items worth. In this case, a planet with a good rare earth element content. A very impressive 1.2 percent no less.

>>53668302
Yes, as are my various gold, silicon, and crystalline based shareholders. You'll have to be dealing with the Roots in the system who have legal right to the planet, and I assure you, they are not taking the news of possible claim jumpers kindly.

>>53666722
Well thank you, they are inspired in all things bad:
Dark Eldar From W40K

>>53668337

>>53667546
Greetings Iron Bloom, I thank you for your offer but I must decline. We Noo are proud to use our own sweat and brow in order to achieve the greatest gift the universe has to offer, the feeling of an honest days work.

>>/qst/

>>53668390

Oh yes, provided she doesn't try to eat their synthetic chassis's. I have no idea what Scrabble is, but plenty of Roots take part in various entertainment activities in their down time. I'm sure they will have plenty of ways to help her occupy her time.

I'm still curious what she could do in the field of genetic engineering. Retroviral alterations sound like quite the promising area, we merely lack the means to program something more complex than removing some latent genetic disorders and provide some extra bulk DNA to slow the effects of genetic replication decay.

>>53668414
I understand that all too well. Many still feel the call of the pick and plow here at home. We merely seek to make it a calling, rather than a requirement of one's finite time. The less sapients working to ensure the lights stay on, and the fridge remains full are more you have seeking to improve themselves and others.

>>53668397
Then you will find a likewise hungry beast awaiting you here. When you are made of metal, not meat, metal is your meat.

Now, to the matter of exchange... Those gigatons of exotic focusing material. I'd be quite happy to exchange a planet of metals that we know about for crystals we have yet to encounter, more so in such amounts. It could lead to a nice revolution in our energy industry. We might be able to build smaller scale fusion plants with it. As well as putting a jeweled ring around our star. I still want to see that happen before I go to root.

Given the sheer size of it all, I'll most likely just have it placed in orbit around Steel Seed. See if we can get it into a good orbit for display to the population. Thank you for your patronage, I will notify all Roots that an agreement has been, and to recall all mining operations from the planet. Expect a few leaves to get left behind, they can sometimes lose contact with their control node and just go around keeping themselves operational.

A good sister for Carbon, I'm sure.

>>53668558
I'm sure...
Pleasure doing business with you my friend, sorry about the genocidal promises earlier, if it makes you feel better I don't break my promises,just fail to me them.

>>53668579

I'm sure it is just one of your charming racial quirks. Although do expect a rather cool reception when you deliver the crystals. I try to be a gracious host, but its hard when someone threatens my garden.

>Implying I get to go outside.

>>53668679

That sounds both slightly terrifying and amazing at the same time. I'd definitely be interested in staring a xenobotanical garden here. That'd certainly be a money maker.

However, those plans will have to come later. I need to go rest and deal with the share holders. I've got one literally beating down my front door. I should really talk to her about using an industrial extractor as her daily chassis...

Good day to you all, ambassadors and the like.

I am afraid you are mistaken ambassador, the Avar were a fallen empire deep in our own space, living on a single ringworld, their empire having collapsed some 700 years ago.

Tell me this, are the creatures you speak of, do they resemble this?

>>53670434
>single ringworld
Oh these fuckers, Sorry yes I've heard about these Avar Ranbar, these are the heretics that spilt from the Avarian empire 46 million years ago. Do not worry my flowering friends, we'll send a immediate cease and desist to those bird brains. If not they can speak to asset protection about getting their arms back.

I have returned now what is going on

>Carter communicates through Vox.

Hello,fellow ambassadors.I hope you are all having a good day.I would be at the Assembly with you,but I'm currently at Ms.Frond's mansion.I will arrive shortly,don't worry.

>>53671765
Good to see your Carter, how goes the Wastes?

>>53671590
I'm...not very sure.That reminds me though.Earlier I was talking with the Andronian mining diplomat,and she said the W'nai plague was sentient.So,I was going to ask if you have a world that the plague could live on,and in return you could make it a game world.

>>53671813
maybe,how does this plague work,if it can infect my kind then no

>>53671803
The Wastes are fine,and I got the vinyl I requested from the Andronian diplomat earlier.Turns out my research on those shadow things worked,because when BAAL used a shard of oblivion to destroy a planetary system,I could stop it by weaponizing the creatures and having them collide.

>>53671830
Well,it depends.
As long as you maintain quarantine,likely not.However,you could ask Sally to not infect you.

>>53671849
These shadow beings, are they few in number now? I remember the void Speaker mentioning how they destroyed most.

>>53671292
Why,hello 01.How are you today?
>>53671227
Do you require aid for these pirates?

>>53671899
Yes.
Kind of.
I killed most,but I may have...vat grown a million or two or them and converted them into unwilling suicide bombers.

But hey,it actually stopped BAAL.We're one step closer to fighting planar beings without hiding in the Wastes so that a Great Forge can do it for us.

>>53671937
That reminds me,BAAL apparently met the Divines the Voidspeaker talks of.
Said that they held him off,but when he returned the Divines weren't there.

>>53671874
who is sally

>>53671590
I only wish I knew. I was waiting for things to quiet down a little, so that I could return to making my case for assistance of the Ryush refugee crisis.

No, I will not let this point drop! More than a billion lives are on the line and the Federation seems content to ignore it! The only support seen thus far has been from individual parties, such as the honoured ambassador for the Carnem Wastes' support, while while appreciated, does not even come close to addressing the sheer scale of the disaster!

>>53671937
It sounds extremely fascinating.

You'll also be happy to know that we have begun to colonise Avar after the clean up operation.

>>53671993
well i wish i could help but i wouldn't know how

>>53671988
Sally is the plague.
>>53671996
Well,that's some good news.Did any native flora or fauna survive Heaven's Gate?

I still have the original shadow being,and it's become more compliant.Perhaps it can shed light on the Avar collapse.

>>53672069
I would implore you to ask, knowing more might make the Avar emperor more compliant

And it appears most of the flora was destroyed and fauna had been killed by the shadow beings. We have begun a re-planting effort for both to bring the planet further to its once great splendour.

>>53672106
That's a shame.I was hoping to take a plant or two.

Regardless,I will ask the shadow being,but I cannot as of now.I am currently at Ms.Frond's house,where we were discussing trade deals,while 01 and I were "testing" some substances.

Did you know a Hivemind synapse tendril can get high?

>>53672191
thats...interesting?

>>53672191
We prefer not to partake in narcotics, Yssravannar are psychotic enough as it is. Although the notion of a Hive being getting high is quite humorous.

>>53671993
Perhaps the Noocoukd help?They could provide food.

>>53672278
Could help.
>>53672255
>>53672264
Yeah.At least we worked on a trade deal.Her people needed better FTL.

>>53672306
Don't give them the beacons, the Wastes can handle the creatures but I doubt many other could.

>>53672343
Of course.
I just trade 4 types of FTL and some kinetic weaponry blueprints.In return I got one of their ships,some of their culture's history and works,and an ally.

Also a fast pass to her mansion.

>>53672411
I think I'll track where this beacon attracts them from.The Voidspeaker did want to kill all of them,after all.

Might modify another to attract Stormkings.
I have a gigantic new synapse body,and testing it out with a Kaiju fight sounds awesome.

>>53672411
Alliances are good, I can attest to it.
What method of FTL did you give them?

>>53671904
No need for that Mr Carter, but thanks for asking, their only advantage over our fleet was that we didn't know where their base of operations were hidden, but now we know.

>>53672495
Worm hole travel,stretch travel,Limbo travel,and Alcubierre travel.Forgive the antiquated name for the last one,it's just that I'm more familiar with Earth terms.

>>53672590
Tell, where is earth? What is living on it now?

>>53672535
Did you destroy them?

>>53672621
It is at the heart of some human empire,although I can't find it anymore.

I want to go back home someday,even for just a little bit.

>>53672650
I know the feeling of homesick. This station, it's nothing like Yss. It makes me yearn for home.

>>53672697
Yes.Although the Wastes is like a new home now.I can barely remember Earth these days.
The Hematization will end in about 3 days though.Then,I may try and go find the planet.

>>53672717
It may be best. It sounds like a fascinating world, what you call continental I believe?

>>53672728
I think.I haven't been there in quite a while.
By the way,what is the year in this setting?Was wondering if all humans were dead,but then some empires showed up.

>>53672770
Yss is a world mostly covered in open plains and hills
im not sure desu I think there's a human empire in this though

>>53672794
I've seen several over the playthroughs,
in fact my ships fought against the ships of a human empire player yesterday

>>53671904

>>53672794
I'll need to visit sometime.Never got to see Yss after it's defense.
That reminds me,how are the creatures the nobles asked for?On Dreoth?I hope they haven't escaped.Yeah the United Empire is human centric.Should we decide on a year?

>>53672850
Prepared for what,exactly?
>>53672839
Yes,but we're talking about this thread.We don't have a year for it yet.Isn't Stellaris in 2200?

>>53672911
Stellaris does indeed start at 2200.

>>53672946
So,should we make this thread be around,let's say,2500?It allows for ancient races,and also for galactic meetings.

>>53672893
The Ageans have begun releasing some in the wild to hunt. Needless to say it was resulted in many injuries and a few deaths, but such is their way. Their rugged way of life opens them to such harshness.

>>53672966
Well, that should depend on each race's calendar if you ask me.

>>53672966
>>53672983
However, the federation could have existed for 2500 years and thus have made their own federate calendar

so is there a war going on

>>53669318
Ahhh my foe you shall soon face us today ob the field of battle and we shall show little mercy on you. For armor it's gonna be d6 +your armor to see how much you block. My ships will be armor 3 no shielding. Yours will have shields that count as 5 armor which you can use every other round and armor for yours will be 2 because they rely mostly on shields. The revised combat rules are in last thread if you want to read them

>>53672974
At least the creatures are...happy,I guess.They enjoy violence.
>>53672983
>>53673002
Well,maybe not 2500 years,that seems a bit too much.Why not have the Federation as a few century's old conglomerate of species,and it have a unified calendar.Other species can use their own,and it might even cause some conflicts on more orthodox aliens.I'm fine with either solution,not like the Wastes has unified time.

>>53673126
I've seen them. They are acceptable.

Oh it is you again.

Why do you disturb my channels with your empty boasting this time?

You desire for another humiliating defeat under my claws?

>>53672062
It's quite straightforward. Fragments of what we suspect to be a planetary system scattered by a supernova, tore through the Lesser Kingdom of Ryush some 28 gal-standard days ago and devastated the planets in the region. The death toll is already over 3 billion and as we speak, a further 1.2 billion Eortite citizens are suffering for lack of food, water, sanitation, housing, medical supplies and security. We need all of the above and transport vessels to free the currently over-stretched Second Fleet from the burden of transporting refugees from the afflicted planets to more stable biomes*.

>>53672278
Would that I could locate the honoured representative of the Noo Liberty Union to make such a request, but sadly, they seem to be absent at present.

[Federation diplomatic database notifications]
Federation Intelligence wishes to inform all delegates that a preliminary report on the Divine Kingdom of Eortan is being compiled. Please stand by.
* Intelligence reports indicate the Eortite Second Fleet are not exhibiting actions consistent with projected peak efficiency. Incompetence, corruption, or extraneous circumstances likely

>>53673190
Wait,I thought they were refugees from a war?

>>53673159
well my fleet is for hire if either side wants some mercs

>>53673132
A curious combination I admit, large red avians and creatures born of the Wastes.

>>53673262
Yes,it is.I wonder how the Stellar Phoenix' are doing?Last I checked they set up an outpost in the Wastes.

>>53673287
I'm not sure myself, but there is a egg in our space, and we have put a large condone to make sure it's not harmed.

>>53673227
I never claimed as such, honoured ambassador. There is no such war ongoing within Eortan's territory, nor are we engaged in hostilities with a foreign power. I have consistently been forthright about the scale of the disaster and indeed have previously mentioned that it was a result of a rogue meteorite swarm attack.

I fear that possibly, the dramatic events of the past few days may have muddled my message somewhat and caused it to become confused with unrelated events, however that in no way diminishes the scale of the tragedy facing the innocent citizens of the kingdom.

>>53673349
Oh.Well,then I apologize.I was simply confused.
How are the refugees I helped transport?

And been thinking about this. If your enemy has more capital ships they can roll an additional d6 for damage. If you have more carriers and use bombers you can do the same

>>53673770
Many amongst the more religious minded see them as the closest and purest descent of the Solar Phoenix.

>>53673560
And i apologize for replying late it's hard to write an order of battle and drive

>>53673829
The Kingdom of Eortan requires food for its refugees.
>>53673851
The descendant of all avians?

>>53673978
Yes, they resemble what we imagine him to look like, and as such some of the more religious have taken it as a sign.

>>53674087
A sign of what?A'new age?

>>53674203
Perhaps, others are saying it's the results of our souls when we passed.

>>53673978
We will be glad to send a fleet of cargo ships there. How much food will be needed? We are sure we can fill any demands for those in need, but I feel the need to double check.

>>53673967
Off topic
So,are we going to make a PDF on the rules or something?

>>53674311
and a off topic question from me,will we make a 1d4chan page or something for this stuff

>>53674276
Enough for about 1.2 billion refugees.
>>53674362
I think so.I don't know how,and I don't have an account.
With a page we could have a list of the Ambassadors,and all their history,plus the fleet rules.It would make this more unified.

>>53674459
agreed,now does anyone here have an account if now ill make one

>>53670852

I awaken from my slumber, and I see a giant red stone glistening above my home. Glad to see the Andronian's are so quick with their delivery system. Already the Roots are setting Trunks on it's surface and beginning the extraction and fabrication process. Excellent.

>>53673978
The Iron Bloom is willing to render assistance to the hungry masses of the Eortan, for nothing more than cost of transportation and collection. We can start an open tab, and tally the total once the crisis has passed.

>>53673600
A beserker swarm? Most troubling. Do you have any information on its means of control? I'm very worried it could subsume our Roots, and need what information you can spare to work on counter measures.

>>53674262
Another classic case of "Don't worry, it all gets better after you die." Bah. Make your paradise now, rather than wait for it to be given to you once your biological function ceases.

>>53674481
I used to but honestly i don't remember it but feel free to put a page up.
>The Admiral paces hurriedly on the bridge if his starship preparing his fleet and launching fighters in anticipation of an attack

>>53674667
Oh,hello Ms.Frond.I am still in your residence.I can leave,if we're done negotiating.And experimenting.As for the Phoenix,it's your choice to believe in those things,and I personally don't,but the Phoenix are real.There is an ambassador of one in the Federation.

>>53674694
Okay.
Also,this is test of the new rules.Lets see if they work.If they're too cluttered,or lopsided,we can tweak them.

>>53673829
>>53674276
We currently have 1.2 billion displaced individuals. I'll have my aide transmit the exact details*. The kingdom extends it most heartfelt thanks; food, clean water, medical supplies, sanitation, homes... It's all at a premium right now and every day means more death. Even in spite of the biological differences between our species, every scrap of aid helps. The Kingdom of Eortan will remember this for a long time, I assure you.

Despite my personal habits, I assure you, our carbohydrate nutrient slurry does not have any psychotropic effects when consumed by non-native life forms. I'm not going to go off and give a bunch of hungry maws a packet of xinpollen and tell them to eat it.

And duly noted, we'll be sure to avoid tailoring any travel advertisement to your people in a drug tourism context.

>>53674725
Ah, Hello Ambassador Carter. I'll be right down. Just grooming some errant creepers off my trunk and roots.

>Distant sound of a rotary sander from above

Well, you are always welcome here, good ambassador, so you are free to come and go as you please, regardless of what business we may have to deal with. Treat my home as your's when you wish to see Steel Seed.

We can continue in drug trials, or I could take you on a tour of the more vibrant valleys. I do understand if you have other matters to attend.

>Silver Frond returned to her foyer, a small camera drone puttering behind her.

And I would like to see one of these Phoenix's some time. The xenobiologists are flooding my inbox with requests for xenofauna samples to examine. I'm fairly sure a few of them have... less than decent intents for their field of studies.

it's dice 2d10+5+4+1d6 for my roll right? Hopefully attack role will go through

>>53675396
You can't multidicetype in 4chan you either roll all of them d10 or the others are ignored

>>53674969
I'm afraid I must postpone that trip to the valley.I have to go conduct some research of my own,at the request of my friend Baron Taxla.I'll be back,though.You can send the ship to the Wastes,where the Phoenix outpost is.The FTL schematics are on your desk.
>Carter leaves for his ship.
>>53675333
Well,I'm not sure right now,but if I recall correctly a plant species wanted to join the Federation yesterday.Perhaps they will be keen for war.If not,The Storm Kings or a new player that joins who is violent could help sate your thirst for battle.

>>53675396
Damage is 2d8 + 5 + weapon and weapon modifiers.

>>53675464
my problem is that i don't know how to roll in /tg/
let me try
"dice+2d6"

>>53675516
I'll make the rules a PDF.Then,whenever we make a new thread,we put it in the OP or reply to the OP with it.

>>53675541
You put it in options.Here's an example.

>>53675541
You need to type that without the " in the options tab, make sure the d in dice is also in lowercaps.
>>53675396
I'd recommend rolling the d6 sepparately so it can be accounted for

>>53675541
see i fucked up

Rolled 7, 4, 9 + 9 = 29 (3d10 + 9)

>>53675462
Then we'll make it a d10 if you have more capital ships or more carriers for bombing run. Otherwise just subtract just 4 from the role if that's fine

>>53675565
Well,I failed in my example.Yeah,make the d lowercase,like this.

>>53674848
By the All-Mother and the All-Father, I didn't realize it was that dire! I will notify my superiors immediately! This is a priority distaster relief mission. We will send everything you need! Don't worry Lord-Representative, help is on the way.

Rolled 5, 2 = 7 (2d6)

>>53675564
>>53675565

Rolled 4 (1d6)

>>53675565
>>53675574
Discount the 29 just add this to the previous attack role.

>>53675574
Maybe if the damage goes over a set number you subtract four?Then we can use 2d10,if not 2d8 is fine.

>>53675014

Would it be at all possible to get some metabolic information onto your people, to ensure we don't accidentally use the wrong kind of varnish and give them a contact high?

I would be quite troubled if we were unable to engage in trade simply because some quirk of our organic makeup caused allergic reactions in your citizens.

Also gives my xenobiologists something to do.

>>53674848
Provided the Kingdom of Eortan doesn't mind a little mineral extraction to cover cost of fabrication, I can send out a few Root systems to assist in construction of shelters and infrastructure repairs.

As for food, if your people do not mind eating nutrient slurry, we have several megatons of the stuff just waiting for processing to biofuels. It tastes like... Nothing for the most part, but it'll keep you alive. If you can send me some dietary requirements, we'll see if we can add in the various vitamins and minerals that your subjects require.

>>53675464
I understand, and thank you for the gift of technology. I may actually have a Root willing to work onboard your display unit. Somewhat of a curator to explain my people's culture to the curious, and activate the various systems should there ever be a time you needed just that little bit extra. Until next time, Carter.

>Silver Frond looked at her desk, and just sighed, watching a group of her finest physicists grappling with one another over who got to read the schematics first.

>>53675619
Well another issue is that, well, we don't want narcotics to become popular in our world as it would lead to a decline in production. I believe there is some human legend like that, perhaps Carter would know more of it.

I assure you, my good baron, that I have no desire to attempt to illicitly sell narcotics to your subjects. I believe firmly in the law of the land, and will not relegate any of my products to the black market. I would rather other markets be sought after, rather than resources be wasted in profitable, if illegal means. I am certain there is far more to be made in long term, legitimate and lawfully binding trade agreements.

As for your health concern, our solution was a simple legalization of all narcotic substances, and a hefty tax to them all. I believe that sapients will try to get what they want, regardless of legality. Better to ensure they are giving pure substances from legitimate merchants who pay their taxes and license fees, rather than some bastard in a back alley, looking to make an easy flower.

>>53675747
Well that's troubling. I'll have to find a Root willing to perform research on it, with the risk of their consciousness being consumed in the process. This is going to be one huge sum of hazard pay.

Thank you Prethoryn. If this beserker swarm is capable of overwriting a Root, our entire defense force is at risk, and I will go back to the iron age before I let another beserker swarm spawn from our numbers...

>>53675984
We have a few that perform such things on our own neural system. Needlepoint got me through college, that is for sure. We'll gather together a list of known side effects, and provide a few free samples for experimentation. Actually, I'll get get a full sample platter of our more benign stimulants. Still actively concerned something is going to end up leading to total organ failure.

>>53675996
>>53676286

My lexicon is telling me tea is merely dried leave and flowers of various aromatic plants, boiled and drank. We have many of those, although it's considered more a spa treatment for our taproots, not a recreational beverage. I'm happy to send a sample of our best for your consideration.

And there is profit everywhere you look, my good baron, so long as you have something someone wants. Even if it's only a small profit, you can still make your millions out of petals, it just takes a long, long time.

I can even ensure any merchants we send out are of the teetotaler mindset. I wasn't unopposed when I put every chemical into the grey market. I'm sure they'd be happy to be around like minded people as well.

There may be a slight issue with acquiring the necessary liquidity to pay for your offer, however I am certain we can work out some form of payment plan. Transmitting details of requirements for the shelters**. Likewise, so long as the nutrient slurry is edible, we'll take anything we can get at the moment, purely as a stopgap measure, until diversions can be made from the Lesser Kingdom of Luxoris.

Again, I offer my sincerest thanks for the assistance of the Galactic Federation in this time of crisis. I know we have had our differences in the past, but with luck, your efforts here today will usher in a new era of co-operation between our peoples.

[Federation diplomatic database notifications]
* Proposal includes several points that contradict Federation law, including the censorship of information and restriction of the rights to freedom of movement and association.
** Specifications of the shelters and materials include elements not essential for civilian accommodation, including machinery and spaces suitable for the repair and refitting of heavy vehicles.

>>53676286
>>53676479
Hail, Federation. I am representative inkito. Currently, we are making great strides towards not a cure, but a vaccine. Those who are infected cannot be cured, from what we can tell. We will start testing these straight in the W'nai outpost of Maro VI. Alright, another issue. We need everyone to sign the Rekoro Act, which I shall mention later, and we will provide any resources to fight the plague.

>>53676570
Hold up, you should sign us. We are a trade company, the Kyrrzo Trading Company. We sell it for a far more cheaper price per bushel, and we are certified by the Rekoro Act. We have been a trusted name for over 25 years! And, all workers are treated fairly on our plantations.

>>53676740
We will begin shipments immediately if you sign the deal, and establish plantations in your territory, creating jobs.

>>53676801
We wish to hear the other offer of the other trader, in terms of business spirit.

>>53676843
That I agree, we are fair and just for a reason.

>>53676594
Very well then. Now, the serenity complex has been cleared of all known threats! We can move from this ship to there, but, there is a problem. Currently, some wish to improve defenses, and many areas were damaged. So we will have some areas blocked off.

>>53676570

Tobacco, lets see... Ah, nicotine infused leaves, dried and smoked. Yes, we have an analogy of it in the form of ink leaves. A little gene splicing and we can extract the other substances you may find less savory.

While it will take a few standard months for the modified breed to reach harvest, we can provide an extract of the raw nicotine and infuse it into something similar flavor wise, but chemically inert in the mean time.

>>53676572
Oh, I am not looking for payment in terms of currency. We will simply lay claim to any minerals extracted during our fabrication that are not used in the construction of the shelters. Merely a way to claim I made a profit on the venture to any shareholder who raises quills over this.

>>53676594
This is good to hear, Inkito. The Iron Bloom has establish a nature preserve of sort of the plague on one of our outlaying worlds. It seems there is some form of consciousness to the virus, and we believe it better to isolate and monitor the being. I believe its viral form could be used to revolutionize the field of genetic alteration, provided we could find some way to guide the awareness away from all consuming hunger.

>>53676740

>Agitated rustling intensfies
Well, I will have to contest your claim at cheaper by the bushel, given you need to pay your employees. Iron Bloom Incorporated is proud to have a fully automated workforce, enabling us to cut costs of production to staggeringly low amounts.

>>53676843

While we are unable to provide the exact desired substance, we are quite happy to create the best substitute we can, tailoring it to your liking. We merely ask for a little time to get everything in order. If you wish to provide samples, we are quite happy to use those as well, although we do hope you'll find the local flavor as it were to be worth the venture.

>>53676864
>>53676971
I believe we will have to sample both, as to draw a full conclusion.

>>53676971
Except, most of our workers are robots, anyways. We only need a pay a couple of overseers, haha! This price for bushel is about 150 SFC.

>>53676996
And, with your subscription with us, you will also get access to our sister company, Kyrzzo Brewery, and you get the first five months of shipments free from the Brewery.

>>53677043
>>53677009
>>53676996
Think about it, baron, for a minute.

>>53675958
Well my time is up and I don't know if I will be back tonight so. Congratulations my fleet withdraws to hyperspace. because not big enough ships to fight back

>>53677009

All of ours are robotic, even the overseers, although Roots are treated as full citizens by all legal standards in in company. I have their desire for freedom to thank for my position of power.

I am curious as to what sort of designs you use, and if we could reach some form of technology exchange.

>>53676996
Very well, and thank you for your consideration. A priority order has been sent, and I have my finest chemical engineers working on providing you with the finest sample of our favored recreational substance, tailored to your cultural liking.

>>53677043
Why you little... That's how it'll be, hmm? Well, my good Nokoz, I look forward to our bidding.

Bring me my economists! It's time for a trade war!

Here, my good CEO, a little history on my people and my company.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pPcJ6YPFY5MfJYr7yWjlIJlpQsMcT8GMPWvvrKi3S0k/edit?usp=sharing

>>53677158
Ah, yes. Well then, I believe that you are not part of the Rekoro Plan, yes? You face a severe disadvantage in Ploraxia, as many fiefs will block your ships from landing, unless in emergency. Entire nations, like the Dabulans will block you from their territory.

>>53677223
>>53677158
You face a severe disadvantage. Another thing is that our ships are much more fuel efficient, and faster than yours, by the way.

>>53677043
>>53677158
Would it not simply be easier to subscribe to both? The Rok number into their billions, so demand is huge.

Rolled 2, 2, 3 + 8 = 15 (3d8 + 8)

>The Imperial fleet super charges their mass drivers and opens fire
It is your doom Cephalopods.

>>53676903
Hello,Inkito.I take it you rested well?We still have to discuss that empire you spoke of.
>>53676996
I've done some research,and the results were,surprising,to say the least.Those shadow heretics are BAAL's doing,and it seems that these shadow beings were pushed back by a fiery avian.

>>53677298
Our plantations can meet that demand. We wish for exclusive shipping rights to most Rok worlds, the Blooms can have the rest.

>>53677313
It may explain why so many colonies were spared, particularly the ring world. The mepreror wishes to know more if that is possible?

>>53677299
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-Yd1eWqg3vNKyzgscXQXSENvSUvVKSPMbK0bQr_OsrYHere's the rules.I added and modified some stuff for clarity like infantry and exotic weaponry.I would like very one to review it,so that we may agree on its usage.

>>53677333
There isn't much.It said that they were swarming Avar,after being spawned in the Void and driven out by the Void Behemoth and its allies.Then,the entire surface was cleansed in fire,and the only shadow beings that survived his in a place they call,"The Womb of the Ocean."
This does coincide with a nova event in the same location,allthough the records from that time state that it was too far for study.

>>53677391
The emperor wishes to know one more thing, are there any more Avar out there? Did anymore survive the fall?

>>53677391
*hid
It also details harvesting some Avar civilians to bring with them to hide.
The one I asked stated that they were used to produce some kind of weapon,for use against the Divines.

Maybe,if I may say so,the Divines the Voidspeaker talks of were related to the Stellar Phoenix of your beliefs?

>>53677298

I am sure there will be quite the market for both our products in your domain, and like all products, the superior version will be picked by the consumer. I have no doubt there will be a strong backing for the more traditional variety, but there will always be a market for new flavors and twists to old favorites.

>>53677328
Exclusive to an entire....

>More agitated rustling. The sound of a blowtorch and something metallic being dropped into a container. Her image became slightly hazy moments after

Well, Iron Bloom Incorporated will ask for no such things for our product, we merely ask that it be given a fair chance to prove its worth against our competitor's product.

>>53677424
Perhaps some survived with the Shadow heretics.I do not know.The shadow creature in question said no more,although it has been behaving remarkably well.

I think it's hesitance is due to fear.

Regardless,it appears I'm succeeding in rehabilitating BAAL's effects on the creature.I believe those shards he flung yesterday are related to this.

>>53677482
Ms.Frond,or Frond{may I call you Frond},you may want to calm down.I understand that there is now a contending business dealer,but the products themselves will win this bout.

>>53677494
The emperor seems more at ease. He has given his personal thanks to you, and asks if more information becomes known to inform him. You also have my thanks for helping to bring the Avarians closer to compliance.

>>53677482
>>53677328
We believe that both products will give a competing edge to the market. We would like to subscribe to both.

>>53677559
No problem,my friend.I am simply happy to have this knowledge as well.I believe me and my new shadow friend here will try and find this "Womb of the Ocean".She says she doesn't remember,and that she was lead there by technology much like the beacon.

In the meantime,I'm heading back to the Assembly.I have a prototype you'll all want to see.

>>53677540

That is what I am in the process of doing, my good ambassador. I will vouch to the quality of our ink leaves, simply because I don't make it a habit of smoking anything but the very best my world has to offer. Although I've spared the xinpollen topping. Don't need to be tasting purple right now.

And of course you may call me Frond, Carter. I do like to get into a personal level with the people I welcome into my home. By the way, about those rugs for your house, Lithium Lilac will be landing shortly with a few examples. Held a lottery the other night for who would have the honor of getting their work displayed in the home of an alien diplomat. The definition of a "carpet" was bent, quite a lot, but I believe you'll find them... interesting.

>>53676903
Pardon me for asking, but what is this Serenity complex you speak of? And if you are in need or assistance in repair and defense, we always have eager Roots looking for employment.

>>53677730
By landing,I hope you mean at your place,so that I can meet you there.Tbe Wastes may be under Hematization,but I don't want to get Organ fluids all over the rugs.

>>53677157
>>53677299
You've been lucky I had a minute to check the internet on the phone before having to definitely go.

>>53677798
That reminds me.I wonder what happened to the Phoenix triplets that hatched from one of the Organs.

>>53677798

Indeed. They had to collect the off world designs, as this was an empire wide event. A few lucky winners were had out by Quartz Oak, our first colony. I'm curious if you'll be able to spot the difference between synthetic and organic craftsbloomship.

>>53677559
Thank you, my good baron, for this chance to explore strange new markets, to seek out new profit and new customers, to boldly trade in ventures no Bloom has invested in before.

We'll have the first delivery within a standard day, for chemical analysis and quality testing.

>>53677559
Thank you, Baron. We will send shipments immediately.

>>53678037
Another thing; Bloom. I wish to state one thing; if any of our transports are damaged by you, there will be reparations to pay.

>>53678060
>>53678037
Very good. I suggest the main Rok population centres at Murder, High Roost and East Nest

>>53678037
I'd like to hope I can.I will arrive shortly.Perhaps once this is over,we can go see the Valley.
So,I guess the fleet rules are good.Next thread I'll put it in the description.

After years of theft and experimentation we have developed a vessel worthy of us Rumar. Perfect for boarding actions and ramming operations.clad in heavy armor and boasting state of da art gyro cannons and ion cannon batteries.This mighty vessel can even carry the vast beasts of our homeworld to use as warbeasts on the front lines

but im not sure what to call it

>>53678223
Furyhammer?
Imperator?
Slayer?

>>53678223
The Megladon

>>53678223
Or doomhammer.

>>53678154

Well, I assure you we do not engage in any form of interference to the flow of commerce. A merchant making an honest petal is exempt from conflict. Save the sapshed for those who have sold their life to iron and steel.

>>53678223
The Avalanche. The small pebbles strike first and brutally, followed by the mighty boulders to demolish their foundation, ending with the very mountain itself, crushing them beneath its overwhelming bulk.

>After many clean up efforts, the data vaults buried in Avar have been uncovered. The vaults are being opened as we speak, what lies within will soon be revealed.

>>53678223
Rukaar, we ploraxians wish to review your craft, while primitive, it is a great vessel. We wish to make a version for the federation fleet.

>>53678323
Excellent!
>>53678330
Rukaar, our defense minister wishes for the schematics, to upload to the federation database, and use it as a ship class in the federation fleet, with some modifications.

>>53678323
That is great news,Maybe there will be more info on this "Womb of the Ocean",or perhaps a reason why the beacons attracted the creatures.
>>53678383
You mean the Fleet currently stored in the Assembly?Or the Ploraxian fleet?

>>53678275
i like dat one

>>53678432
We mean the Federation Navy, and Task Force X.

>>53678330
>>53678383
fine you may review the vessel but no schematics

The room is vast, a huge library of ancient technologies that for outstrip any i have seen. Wait, there's something in the centre of the chamber. It's like a giant Beacon box, suspended between two energy beams.

>>53678493

I would be interested in buying a copy of these schematics. The heavy use of kinetic weaponry fills a gap in our arsenal, and I believe its boarding capability could be repurposed into fabrication facilities.

I will be quite frank with you, Rukaar. My military is not up to par in term of scale. Our Trunks can't compete with the battleships out there.

We need a proper ship designed for war.

>>53678537
And here I was hoping to have a nice dusk.

I assure you, my very aggressive sapient friend, your patent rights will be honored. All designs that mutate from this base design will be treated as your intellectual property.

As payment, I will offer you the finest example from each generation to add to your own fleet. Sadly, something of this scale will take quite a long time to fabricate, but I assure you, this will begin to pay dividends once they begin reaching a sustainable population.

If you could include some examples of your favored warbeasts, we will happily include them into the mechanical ecosystem patterns.

I have returned fellow ambassadors we managed to win this skirmish with the Cephalopods but there are many more ahead of us.

Ending up losing my game but it was enjoyable.
