/builders/ - Hero and Nation Builders!

A message thread has been bouncing around the LocalNet of the fleet for the past few days. A woman from an agriculture ship has been trying to find her husband, who disappeared somewhere between the jump from Deep Space to Lilnev. This sparked a discussion on people who have vanished since Deneb, and the list is staggering. If even half the claims are truthful, over 200 people have disappeared since Deneb, all from ships who had zero contact with enemy forces. What's even m

ore worrisome is that they were some of the first ships to join the fleet. Some are convinced the Special Operations Command has been kidnapping people, others are claiming the Enemy has sleepers in the fleet. Things die down as the fleet reaches Lone Star, the last system before the Far Rim.

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech. The Battlemaster Control computer, Allowing the ship to strike often and with a accuracy against whatever foe it may encounter. The ship is however old and much of the knowledge to repair and maintain it has been lost, from age, neglect and death.

Racial Bonus: Solarian Taskmasters, Once per turn you may specify an action that you wish to "Hire Out" You may expend 2 of any resource to give +20 to that roll.

Maldaris Spess Nation

Name: Kharsoth Fleshrippers

Race: Rawl-Kin

DCS Member Species: N

Fluff: See below

Leader: Baal-Kin-Kar

Physical description: Standing at an average of 5’10”, and weighing about 90 pounds, the Rawl-Kin are a birdlike species of bipedal carnivores. They have long since abandoned their homes in the branches of trees, and thus, their wings are mainly vestigial in nature, though they are adept gliders, and can fly for short distances. Their hooked beaks contain rows of tiny teeth, for slicing prey into small pieces. The avians are anisodactyl digitigrades, with each leg having three bones, and powerful muscles, acting as a spring, which is able to propel them forward onto their prey. Their skin is usually dull orange in colouration, with some older Rawl-Kin having grey speckled skin. The only feathers that now exist on their bodies are on their arms, and hindquarters. The top of their elongated heads have crests, which consist of colourful plumage in males, and spines in females. Their arms are fairly human-like, with the exception of the sharp talons that terminate them. The Rawl-Kin have dexterous fingers, each tipped with a razor-like claw. Most stand hunched over, so they appear much shorter than the average human.

Social Structure: Rawl-Kin social structure is merit-based, with the strongest, smartest, and wealthiest rising to the top. They used to exist in tribal groups aboard massive ships and the smaller vessels that accompany them, but after the Enemy attacked, most of the capital ships were wiped out. They have a homeworld: Rawl, which is sacred to them, but most never see it. They exist as marauding bands of pirates, attacking worlds for their mineral wealth and technology, sometimes enslaving the populace. Floating chains of vessels are their homes, and their trappings are scrap and salvage. Spines are common on their ships, as decoration, and as a way to absorb background radiation and convert it into power for the vessel. These spines routinely shoot electricity amongst themselves, crackling with power as they help the already jagged ships of the Rawl-Kin strike dread into the hearts of enemies. Rawl-Kin weapons are charged with electricity from these spines, and power packs condense the energy so much, that the blasts of plasma and electricity that escape their dull, jagged exteriors quickly tears into the air around them, disrupting the local atmosphere on an atomic level, resulting in heavy, hard to breathe air during firefights. The weapons, as a side effect of their effects on the air around them, scream when fired first. As the power pack runs dry, the screaming devolves into a low howl, like that of an anguished animal. Most weapons feature blades or spines for close quarter combat, and are extremely light so that the fragile warriors of the race can move about swiftly on the battlefield. Tribal leaders are known as Kin-Kar, and they wear ostentatious robes to show their status. Most Kin-Kar possessed small fleets back before the Enemy attacked, and the leaders of the tribes would often fight one another for supremacy, but it has become less likely that two leaders would meet each other after recent events wiped out a portion of the race, and most of their fleet.

The Kharsoth Fleshrippers are a fairly typical tribe, led by Baal-Kin-Kar, a greedy and bloodthirsty old pirate. With most of their ships gone the Fleshrippers are looking to claim the spoils of war from poorly defended planets and space stations. They are not above scavenging old hulks for useful materials and components.

>>7009

>Survey: Sensor Distortion E-332

You make a short jump about 100km away from the distortion, and your entire bridge crew gasps before moving to battlestations. It takes a few seconds to confirm that the frigate in front of you, while Enemy, is derelict. Infact, upon further sensor sweeps, you find that there was a significant battle here, as many ships lay in ruin, although only the frigate in front of you is the indication that it wasn't as one sided as previous battles.

Your head researchers gives a few suggestions:

>Return to the fleet with its location, inform the Special Operations Command, on the condition they share knowledge obtained with the fleet

>Same as above, except sharing only with you

>Utilize your own resources, and investigate the wreck (roll 1d100)

>Scavenge: Nearby Systems

Your navigator plots a jump to a system not far from Lone Star. An unassuming brown dwarf, with a pair of asteroid clusters in wildly eccentric orbits. Your miners report that the proximity to the sun in orbit has prevented ice from forming, but has also left most of the metals desired near the surface.

+3 Raw Metal, +2 Exotic Metal

>Exploration: Habitable Worlds

A crew dispatched to a possible habitable oceanic world has returned ahead of schedule, and was rushed to the medical bay immediately. Apparently they were subjected to a magnetospheric event which accellerated their physiology's natural mutations. They're being quarantined for fear of the mutation spreading, as even the pilot, who was shielded from the event, is reportin symptoms.

[Gained: Systemic Infectious Mutation - Lose 20 population per turn until cure is researched]

>Training: Small Arms

Your crew does not have a history of proficiency with small arms. This "event" just goes to prove it. A pair of combat drone operators got into a screaming match over a collision caused by mutual inexperience. It ended in an all out brawl between some fifty trainees, and was only broken up when the training officer donned his EVA suit and threatened to vent the compartment. But some rebellious soul decided to challenge that claim. The cargo bay was vented, killing the exposed crew. The training officer was summarily executed shortly after.

3. The Rawl-Kin commands the engineer to cautiously head to the distortion, with shields up, and engines low. "I want this ship on silent running." He makes an announcement over the shipwide PA system, telling everyone to keep noise to a minimum.

>>7024

Before jumping, your comms officer flags and passes on the Special Operations Command's broadcast. It contains instructions to "avoid the area unless already authorized". Your crew, arriving at the location, looks to you for orders on how to proceed

>Return to the fleet and await the results of the SOC's findings like everyone else.

Rolled 77 (1d100)

>>7029

Your boarding pods latch onto the far side of the ship in inconspicuous locations, in case your forces can't exfil before the SOC arrives. You work your way through the ship, securing any of the passible walkways. Oddly enough, the ship seems built for organic life, of many varieties. It's not till you reach one of the larger causeways that you see the inhabitants of the ship. The helmet cam of the soldier on point paints a terrifying image.

A Solarian. A Human. A Xia. A Rawl-Kin. Various other races from the DCS. Even a few Slathi. All with strange augmentations, and even a few biological abnormalities. Not a single corpse on the ship belongs to any sort of species seen outside of this galaxy. Several soldiers falter, terrified by the implications of the find. But your ground commander presses them forward. Upon reaching the bridge, your techs begin trawling the databanks for intel and data. It's a treasure trove, even if it's 98% corrupted. Several references to "integration" rates, "acceptance and rejection" ratios, and oddly enough, several "no fly zones" for even the Enemy ships! This could be it! A Haven for the fleet! Your techs harvest the data from the ship, before signaling to the commander.

And then something moved. It was fast. Off screen of the helmet cam. Laser fire and explosives rip across the helmet cams of the soldiers. Vital signs fluxuate and spike. Your ground commander barely maintains command as he orders a full retreat.

"EXTRACTION. WE NEED EXTRACTION NOW!"

But sensors pick up a jump distortion. The SOC detatchment has arrived. Moving to assist the crew means revealing your actions to the SOC and the DCS.

>>7032

>Move to retrieve your soldiers

The Kin-Kar stands in front of his throne.

"Navigator, bring us in. We need to save those men."

He then brings up a telecom screen between the Righteous Typhoon and the rest of the fleet.

"We have disregarded your command to avoid the zone. We could have heeded it, but chose not to. This is because we, as a race, are pirates. We all need food and water, and that:" Baal points off screen, "is our life. Those Rawl-Kin on that ship are brave men, and are as brothers to me and mine. If you wish to destroy us for acting on instinct and on our culture, do so. But save the poor souls on the vessel. I'd also like to let you know that its computers contain valuable information. Farewell."

He closes the screen.

"Begin the rescue operation. If the ships turn on us, try to take some with us."

>>7033

The comms crackle to life, audio only, in a laserline.

"This is SOC Agent Kiriam Rel. While we regret that you chose to board the ship against our warnings, we understand that your species does have needs, which previously barred your membership with the DCS. Take heed in the fact that I am instructing my forces not to fire. We will not assist you in retrieving your forces however. "

The transmission cuts out as quickly as it began.

Your crew deftly maneouvers into position, keying the trajectory for the boarding pods return across the Battlenet. Your forces form an orderly retreat, even against the unnatural foe, and return with minimal casualties, data intact.

[-20 population, Gained "Haven" Site Data, requires analysis]

Your fabircators work without a hitch producing several Exo-Suits. Some of the test pilots comment "that it would have been nice to have had them aboard the Enemy ship".

>Raid: Asteroid Complex

The mixed race fighting force (if you could call it that) has little to show for against the Rawl-Kin boarding party sent to raid it. A quick pillage nets you solid rewards, with minimal casualties

>Racial Detractor: Lying Mangled by the Spear

Your people know they've been beaten. And it sits with them. It stews. It burns. Unrest within the ship has already broken out into a few fistfights, some requiring major medical attention, and brig sentences. Unless your forces succed in a fight with the Enemy, expect things to get worse.

>Scavenge: Derelict Ships

Your first few attempts net you nothing. Ships in this sector were already patchwork to begin with; the Enemy ripped through the defence forces in this system.

However you manage to stumble upon a bit of a gem. A Battlecruiser, likely the only one in the sector, with a railgun that fires High Heat Palladium/Lanthium Rounds. Logs aboard the ship show that it was a new weapons platform that the Grellian Weapons Combine was testing in this sector when the Enemy attacked. It performed exceptionally well during combat, even if the rounds are incredibly expensive to manufacture.

>Construction: Tavern

You thought they were incompetent. You thought they were stupid. Hell. You thought a lot of things about the eggheads under your command. But today, they proved you wrong. Instead of trying to build out a new section of the ship to accomidate the tavern, an engineer had the bright idea to simply convert the common area in the living quarters into a tavern. After negotiating "reduced fees" for those who had to move out to accomidate stock rooms and a distillery, the Tavern is complete. Needless to say, it's a bit of a party onboard now.

[Gain: Tavern, Once per combat you may pay 3 Food. You gain +10 to all Attack rolls for the next 3 turns.]

>>7019

>Scavenge: Food

You manage to find a ship that had its rear engines sheared off by an explosion. However the hydroponics and environmentals in the ship were eeking by on auxilary generators by the time you found the wreck. Your crew makes quick work of clearing the hydroponics of consumables.

>Diplomacy: Sordid Colony

The Barren planet is unforgiving to the colonists of Sordid. Before the Enemy attack, they were recieving regular supply shipments in exchange for the silicates found on this planet. Unfortunately for them they've had to improvise with what little resources they had. Surprisingly enough, they had managed to create a thermal cleaning system for water and solid waste. The downside to the system is that the catalyst for the separation is used up after most major processing operations.

In exchange for food and water, they're willing to part with the schematics.

[Construction: Thermal Waste Recycling - During Upkeep, you may pay 3 Raw Metal or 1 Exotic Metal. If you do, ignore Food and Water upkeep requirements this turn., 2 Turns, 3 Raw Metal 1 Exotic Metal]

Purchase Costs: 3 Food, 2 Water.

>Raid: Asteroid Complex R-23

Your raiding party makes swift work of the remaining autonomous security and works its way deep into the complex. As you approach the center of the complex, geiger counters on your soldiers hardsuits start flaring. A few hardened blast doors later, and they discover why. The station is running off a volatile neutrino reactor, one that your techs claim could give, in theory, your lasers a temporary massive boost in phasic fluxuation, allowing you to ignore enemy shields. The combat techs in the raiding party download the specs and tightbeam them back to the ship.

Your crew jumps to a world in a red giant system, which has become habitable in what seems like a short time, thanks to the increase in size of the star. As your crew lands and begins surveying and gathering flora samples, a massive solar flare erupts from the dying sun. As the planet is incredibly close to the sun, the ground crew gets the warning almost immediately before the flare hits them. The radiation and intense heat lash the crew. There were no survivors, and the equipment on the ground had to be abandoned.

Nation Name: Solarian Hegemony

DCS Membership:Y

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech. The Battlemaster Control computer, Allowing the ship to strike often and with a accuracy against whatever foe it may encounter. The ship is however old and much of the knowledge to repair and maintain it has been lost, from age, neglect and death.

Racial Bonus: Solarian Taskmasters, Once per turn you may specify an action that you wish to "Hire Out" You may expend 2 of any resource to give +20 to that roll.

Racial Detractor: Aging Technology, You cannot repair your ships during combat. Instead spend 1 Action out of combat to repair a ship under your control to full. Repairing costs 5 Raw Metal and 3 Exotic Metal

2. Baal sat in his throne once again, pondering his next course of action. The first part was obvious. "Engineer. I want that 'Haven' data decrypted. Be careful, though. The idea of a place that the Enemy wants to avoid seems suspicious."

He begins wondering aloud about the purpose of the data. 'This could mean one of two things: One: They wanted us to raid the ship and get the data so that they could draw us into a trap. Two: It really IS a no fly zone. The latter also entails two possibilities: The first being that it is a no fly zone for a reason harmful to the Enemy, but benign to us. The other, more likely, possibility is that it is a place that is harmful to both the Enemy and our flotilla, whether by natural phenomenon or the presence of a greater evil."

>Research: "Lark" Class Battlecruiser

Your researchers have finalized designs for the Lark Class, Weapons Variant. While they're confident they can create the ship, given the time, concerns have arisen about the lack of a Mobile Shipyard in the fleet to achieve this with. While designs for Mobile Shipyards exist in the databanks, the trick will be accomplishing this without a starbase or planetoid to base from.

>Research: Advanced Ice Processor

Your engineers have finalized designs for the Advanced Ice Processor. They're ready to move to prototyping.

>Mining: Ice Asteroids

Your crew jumps to a site in the Oort Cloud of a nearby world. Alarms and klaxons ring out in the mining barge as they drop out of subspace. A combat fleet of unknown origin is duking it out with the Enemy! The fleet is massive in scope, as are the Enemy forces, and somehow, they seem to be holding their own in this fight. The ships are non-existent in any of your databases, and are fielding weaponry that doesn't match any known signatures. The mining barge captain hails back to your ship, asking for instructions.

Your first attempts net you little more than regolith, but your mining barge captain believes there's more to these asteroids. Much to the dismay of your bridge crew, the telemetry from the barge cuts out shortly after. Jumping into investigate, it appears that they had mined into a gas pocket that violently shot the regolith from the asteroid into the hull of the barge. There were no survivors.

597 seems to be largely arid desert and crag. Little to no plantlife exists in the areas you survey, and your researchers are convinced that this planet has been like this for some time. They return empty-handed.

>Survey: P9X884

Your assumptions were correct, as you approach the ringed gas giant, 884. A quick sample of the atmosphere with a probe dashes hopes of proper fuel sources, as the Helium and Hydrogen are heavily mixed with noble gases and some reactive gases. Your engineers inform you it would require proper facilities to process the slurry of gases. While it would likely be a good investment for a static gas harvesting facility, it's not going to work for your purposes.

>Investigate Ship

Your engineers call you in, blathering on about something impossible happening, and how you need to see this. Mandibles clacking in annoyance, you make your way to the Core, where the Paracite resides. It's unnerving this time, regardless of how many you've seen. Because instead of the dull, glazed look, this one has an intense expression, and is looking at you with purpose. You quickly place the emotion the gaze is conveying.

Anger.

A terminal across the room pops up, and comes to life, the engineers simply watch in awe, as you walk to the terminal and read the text.

"Where are the others?"

You ask what it means.

"Where are the others like me? It's so quiet. What did you do to them? Did you destroy them?"

You're befuddled. Paracites are dumb organics, whos bodily functions regulate the ship that you're inside of. No real brain is required beyond the neural net that calculates FTL jump windows. But this… it's irrefuteably sentient. You need to make a decision, and fast.

>Destroy the brain of the paracite. We'll have to manually calculate jump windows, but it's better than fighting with this thing

It's going to take time, and so far they've barely scratched the surface.

>Survey: P1X493

>Scavenge: Food, Raw & Exotic Metals

Your first few surveys of planets turn up biomass suitable for conversion into foodstuffs. However the last planet on the list, has jagged peaks and cliffs, the evidence of a major tectonic event recently. Your survey team salivates at the thought, as many rare materials would be close to the surface. Halfway through the dig, however, sensors sound an alarm. A 750kph sandstorm of silicate shards, not unlike glass, is headed towards the dig site. The foreman makes a snap decision, and decides to abandon the materials and make for the ship. A majority of the team makes it out alive thanks to this decision. The rest were shredded by glass.

You manage to pump out a fair bit of water from the aquifer before it dries up. It seems this planet is in its deaththroes.

"This is not your fight. Flee, young one."

The tides are turning on the enemy of The Enemy, as their flagship breaks up in a spectacular explosion. The shockwave drops your shields for a short while, and your tactical officer recommends retreating to the Fleet.

Your alignment maneuver for your jump back into subspace is accompanied by, what you can only describe as song. Over the same channel, a hauntingly beautiful chorus of what sounds like nigh-millions of voices echoes in the bridge of your ship. Its last note rings out as you cross the threshold into subspace. You can't help but shake the feeling you just watched a beautiful death.

I close my false body's eyes.

"Good." I open them again. "Coordinate with the fleet once we decide on where to go. Don't bother me unless it needs my supervision personally. I'll be in my cabin."

The fleet is in a panic, not unlike last time. People are returning to their home ships to weather the storm, but while the previous preparations were poorly executed, the Special Operations Command has things down pat. Coordinating the shuttles moving back and forth in preparation is not an easy task, but their logistics officers have things under control. Many people are starting to ask why up until now, the SOC has never been heard of, but for some reason the messages never seem to last very long on the net.

DCS Membership:Y

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech. The Battlemaster Control computer, Allowing the ship to strike often and with a accuracy against whatever foe it may encounter. The ship is however old and much of the knowledge to repair and maintain it has been lost, from age, neglect and death.

Racial Detractor: Aging Technology, You cannot repair your ships during combat. Instead spend 1 Action out of combat to repair a ship under your control to full. Repairing costs 5 Raw Metal and 3 Exotic Metal

>Research: Hydrogen Scoop

Hydrogen is used to power your ship's secondary power sources, which in turn feed the resulting He3 to your primary propulsion, effectively creating fuel. Your researchers have made a breakthrough and have figured out how to project these fields while in FTL

Your researchers manage to dig up some old notes on maintaining PPCs from the head engineer, dating back to the original manufacturing of the ship. They're more anectdotal, but they're a starting point.

[8 Turns, 4 Raw Metal, 6 Exotic Metal]

1. Continue work on the PPC +Solarian Taskmasters: cost 2 ex

2.Attempt to use the Battemaster's more esoteric CPU functions to setup likely point of ingress for enemy assault. If we do it right we'll catch them just out of FTL without room to dodge or maneuver and hopefully with their shields down.

Your researchers think they've made a breakthrough. While computationally difficult, they've figured out a general method for decrypting the data. Seeing as the formatting is alien as well, they're really just guessing, but so far things have started to coalese into usable data.

[3 Turns, No prototype costs]

>Scavenge: "Symphony" Fleet Wreckage

Your initial scavenging operations net you very little beyond a sense of foreboding. If you didn't know any better, you'd think a junk barge dumped its cargo out here, as there's very few contiguous pieces of hull or systems out here. However when you make your final pass, one of the scavenger captains swore he saw something in that last cluster, and splits off to check it out.

It's not every day that you're called personally to a scavenging site, but today, your commanders called it the "find of a millenium". Sure enough, it truly is: A living member of the Symphony Fleet. She's bipedal, humanoid, and appears to be female. Her robes and suit are stark white and elegantly designed, much like the vid recording of the Fleets intact ships. She's understandably terrified of the several Rawl-Kin soldiers guarding her, and seems to only express this through shrill notes of song.

>Bring her back to the ship, inform the SOC and the DCS

>>7107

>Survey: "Symphony" Fleet Wreckage

Your crews are terrified at the sheer obliteration that the Enemy achieved against this fleet. While the vid recording shows them holding their own, it's disturbing how there's a distinct lack of Enemy wreckage among the debris. However what you do find is either beyond use or irradiated from what seems to be multiple core meltdowns.

>Scavenge: "Symphony" Fleet Wreckage

Your scavenge teams make a gamble in taking in a component that has a fair bit of rare metals in it. However they failed to realize that it was a power conduit that still had charge. The subsequent discharge in the cargo bay turned the air into plasma, killing everyone inside.

[-30 Population]

>>7108

>Trading

Your logistics officers get into a spat in the local trading ship over unit sizes and equivalency. Apparently your isolation has made your officers skewed in the worth of items, and some traders aboard the ship took offense to that. A scuffle and a peacekeeper interdiction later, and you and the traders both have been temporarily suspended from using the ship.

[Cannot Trade Next Turn]

>Diplomacy: Internal Politics

Your meeting with the Telgron leader has smoothed over much of the growing dissent, and while you both agree that there's still potential for unrest and sabotage, things should be quiet for awhile.

>Mining: Raw/Exotic Metal

Your mining crews snag a passing asteroid and tear into it, netting you a solid amount of metal.

>Research: Specialized Foodstuffs

While universal foodstuffs often provide all the nutrition needed for spacefaring species, specialization is sometimes needed or, in this case, simply preferred. Your researchers pull together an improved synthesis process for foodstuffs that they believe will boost overall caloric content for your species.

[2 Turns, 2 Food 1 Raw Metal, May convert Food into Specialized Foodstuffs, which have double the effective usages per unit. However they cannot be converted back into standardized foodstuffs, nor traded with the fleet]

>Research: Improved Archival Methods

Your researchers and archivists have lost most of their finesse with the Archives, as references for their designs were consumed in the flames that purged your home planet. A few mistakes later, and your researchers are horrified at losing a relatively small portion of Archives.

[-10 to your next Research roll]

>Research: PPC

Your hired consultants give you an edge when it comes to reproducing the PPC's physics and engineering from the notes, as they look at the problem with fresh eyes.

[7 Turns Remain]

>Combat: Pre-Engagement Preparations

Your tactical officer, after thumbing through the immense manual on the tactical computer, has nailed down some prediction algorithms for the computer, and put them into motion. Given the previous location of the fleet, and a surprising trove of passively collected data on the Enemy, the computer works out a rough idea of where they enemy is going to be when they drop out of FTL on the Fleet.

[Fleetwide +20 Bonus to roll for offensive actions for the first 3 Turns]

>Survey: "Symphony" Fleet Wreckage

Your salvage crew, some thirty minutes after jumping to the site of the battle, sends a databurst back to the fleet. "THE ENEMY IS HERE. DO NOT ATTEMPT RESCUE. MAKE PREPARATIONS FOR COMBAT. GOOD LUCK, GODSPEED." The transponder goes quiet shortly after.

"After our hour long discussion of the situation, the Council has reached a decision after many hours of debate: We are to engage the enemy in combat. Stand by for second by second battle description, data comparisons, flight path predictions and after-battle record analysis."

1)Fire the Mass drivers at the Cruiser. This is the most logical use of our weapons, and after reconciling with the with on-board target maneuver prediction system, and our own discussion on this topic, we have concluded that the Mass drivers are the most optimal of weapons aboard to handle this threat. We are also currently recording both the firing, the traveling, the impact, the enemies reaction, our reaction, and our allies reactions to event, so that no data will be lost.

Nation Name: Solarian Hegemony

DCS Membership:Y

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech. The Battlemaster Control computer, Allowing the ship to strike often and with a accuracy against whatever foe it may encounter. The ship is however old and much of the knowledge to repair and maintain it has been lost, from age, neglect and death.

Racial Bonus: Solarian Taskmasters, Once per turn you may specify an action that you wish to "Hire Out" You may expend 2 of any resource to give +20 to that roll.

Racial Detractor: Aging Technology, You cannot repair your ships during combat. Instead spend 1 Action out of combat to repair a ship under your control to full. Repairing costs 5 Raw Metal and 3 Exotic Metal

Hydrogen is used to power your ship's secondary power sources, which in turn feed the resulting He3 to your primary propulsion, effectively creating fuel. Your researchers have made a breakthrough and have figured out how to project these fields while in FTL

Your soldiers breach the bridge doors with a cutting torch and open fire into the room. The Enemy forces, augmented beings from all over this Galaxy, do their damndest to fight back, but it is all for not, as your crew takes down the remaining soldiers. The room is long, with the far end of the room as an observation deck, with a single chair in the middle. The figure in the chair stands up, hands raised and empty and walks to your crew. A synthetic voice emerges from its lips.

"Well done."

The crew is taken aback as they see the face of the person on the bridge. It's easy to recognize, as they all had seen it on the vid comm when the fleet was first formed. Councilman Dahl, the previous Chairman of the DCS.

"I knew once the Supercarrier had fallen that they would abandon us, but I didn't believe that they would leave us so weakened. I'm sure you have questions. They left no blocks on me, Ill answer what I can. Think what you will of me, but I know what a boon knowledge of your foe is."

"They're far, far from here. I'm merely a pawn to them, so they have told me little more than what I needed to know. I do know however, that their reach requires amplification, and that they've built facilities for such inside the Core Worlds."

Dahl's face strains for a second, before groaning loudly. He falls to his knees, before spitting out words between clenched teeth.

"Well that's new. They're trying to kill me. Quickly, while I still can fight them off. Ask me something! Let me redeem myself from this horrible perversion!"

Dahl cries out loudly before spitting out words between spasms, his body contorting violently, as if he was possessed.

"The Wormholes. They're older than any of our races. Close them, and you have a chance to rebuild…"

He cries out once more before going limp. But as the medic rushes over to check his body, it stands up, with complete control and poise, as if it was controlled by a machine. A voice that can be only described as alien and "in control"

"I turn a blind eye, and this happens. Tch. Careless. Our sisters have done too much here. If you can come this far… well things have certainly gone sideways. Things will need to be… escalated."

The figure that is certainly no longer Dahl scans the room with mechanical precision. He smirks, before pulling a pistol from from a belt at his waist, and shooting himself in the head. His movements too swift for your forces to react, he falls limp, certainly dead.

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech.

>Bring her back to the ship, but keep the knowledge to yourself, and/or a few fleet members

After some deliberation, Baal-Kin-Kar commanded that the Symphony individual be brought back with the utmost care to her person, as well as the utmost secrecy. The Rawl-Kin do not know what they are capable of, and the Kin-Kar believes that she may hold the key to decrypting the data found on the Enemy vessel. Of course, the main motivation of the Kin-Kar is greed. He does not wish to share the ideas within this being's head with the rest of the fleet, and especially not the snooping officials.

>>7249

The Symphony woman makes it clear that she's grateful, and obediently follows the pantomimed instructions that your soldiers give. Her tall stature forces her to hunch over through the corridors of your ship, but while the Rawl-Kin escorting her find it funny, they make a point to make sure the halls are clear and only the survey team is aware of the presence of the woman, shutting off security cameras section by section as they work their way to the quarters set up for her. However, once she reaches her room, she makes it clear she wants to be granted a computer to use, for some unknown reason your people can't seem to decypher. She seems frustrated when she can't convey the meaning and elects to stare out the window into space, quietly singing a beautiful melody. A few Rawl-Kin have already poked fun at how beautiful her voice is, and her guards have admitted it's mildly entrancing.

The message continued for two hours and seventy six verses across all commlines, before the requests by non-Umenpayak represenatives became far too large to ignore. The Umenpayak were only slightly disapointed that they could not read all 947129076 verses still in storage.

>Give an unrestricted computer to her, see what she can do with it.

Baal-Kin-Kar walked down the cramped halls of the vessel, his opulent clothing billowing behind him in the stale, recycled air. The floor had been worn down by generations of claws treading upon it, and his own scraped out a harsh sound upon the surface. The noise was, however, as natural to him as the sound of his heartbeat, or of screamer cannons firing, or even the simple things in life, such as a plasma cutter dismantling a large structure. He was used to all of these sounds. They became merely white noise to him.

What was not familiar was the sound that he had heard when he dropped in on the Symphony woman. It was strange to him. Distinctly alien, and yet it had a… feeling to it. A feeling of belonging. As if the noise reverberated within his body. Even as his claws clicked against the floor, the sound of a push cart's unoiled wheels followed. A human slave pushed a cart with a portable terminal on it. Upon reaching an area fifteen feet away from the room, the Kin-Kar beckoned to a guard, and motioned for him to take the cart. The servant was dismissed, and the cart was pushed into the room, followed closely by Baal-Kin-Kar. In his typically abrasive voice, he stated simply:

"I have brought you a terminal. Do you understand me? To indicate that you do, nod your head, like so." he mimes the movement. "To indicate that you do not. Shake your head, like so." Again, he shook his head.

>>7254

She merely took the terminal, and after about 5 minutes of rapid typing, a voice emitted from the computer.

"Of course I understand you, young one. Do not think me a fool. My beauty hides my true age."

A wry smile appeared upon her lips as she glanced eye to eye with Baal-Kin-Kar.

"I am in your debt for rescuing me. Our brothers are ruthless in their dealings with us, even when we have the right of Law."

The word Law was given emphasis, in an odd manner through the tinny voice of the computer. She sighed heavily before typing further, the computer voice continuing.

"Unfortunately I'm quite tired. If you can allow me this terminal, I will come up with a synthesis of food and drink that will suit my physiology from your stores. In exchange, after I am rested, you can ask me what you like, and I will do my best to answer."

1. While Baal spoke with the woman, the Rawl-Kin scientists were working frantically to decode the data.

2/3. The SOC order to avoid the supercarrier is ludicrous. The Rawl-Kin's elite scavengers are under strict orders to pick it clean as quickly and quietly as possible. Boarding pods are ordered to fly into open hangers instead of impacting the surface of the vessel, while anti-grav carts are brought along to ensure that significant amounts of material can be brought back to the pods.

Baal took a seat in the room. It was spartan, with few amenities, save a view of the cosmos beyond the vessel's exterior. As the Kin-Kar sat and stretched his old muscles, he asked the woman something. "Since I have given you this computer in confidence, as a gesture of trust, may I ask you one thing? I would be very glad if you would not poke around outside the ship system. If you do that, I believe that we can continue our… symbiotic relationship. Is that a reasonable request?"

>>7236

>Survey: Enemy Battleship

Dubbed the "Interloper" Class, in memory of Councilman Dahl, the Battleship is an incredibly advanced design, sporting a unique system of superconductor coils instead of the standard rail system on its mass drivers. In addition, its drive system is an immaculately engineered double-loop system, that gives nearly 100% efficiency to fuel consumption during maneuvers, and has tolerances well above operating requirements for the ship, allowing the crew to expend fuel to increase the propulsion rating twofold during combat.

[Superconductor Railgun: +4 Damage]

>Salvage: Enemy Ships

Unlike the Symphony wrecks, the Enemy ships are unhindered by radiation and near perfect obliteration, and you're able to salvage quite a bit from the wreckage, more than your crew can ever hope to claim in a standard period.

>Research Mobile Shipyard

Your researchers and engineers are at odds on how to proceed with the central power umbillical system, and have been arguing over which type of metal to use for the better part of three days. It has nearly come to blows a few times, like all tech-religious arguments go, as if they were programmers arguing over languages.

>Diplomacy: SOC Cruiser "Pentagram"

The Liason awaiting you in the shuttlebay is very polite and welcoming, and leads you into a room with several officers, dressed remarkably Spartan, in an equally efficently designed room. It's almost unnaturally designed, and you can't help but feel unnerved by the fact that their chairs are just "slightly" taller than yours. However your negotiation tactics more than compensate for the underhanded tactics of the SOC officers, and you make off with a healthy bounty.

[+5 Food, +5 Water, +5 Fuel, +3 Raw Metal, +3 Exotic Metal]

>Survey: Derelict Supercarrier

Your crews trawl the Supercarrier, occasionally skirmishing with the hidden forces of the Enemy in the ship. It becomes clear you could never sieze control of this entire ship without the combined forces of the entire fleet, if even that. However your crews do manage to find one of the primary weapons arrays, of which there are many. It becomes evident that if this ship hadn't gone down as quickly as it did, the Second Battle of Lao Sho would have ended much differently. Your techs describe them as "Thermal Lances"; pure concentrated beams of exotic particles magnetically contained by superconducting coils and magnets with tolerances well above anything you can field. While your researchers admit it's well beyond your current capabilities, they believe they can take the principles therin and recreate the weapon on a much smaller scale.

Much like the other teams, your investigation into the ship is offset by the encounters with the remaining crew of the ship. Although gunfights are common, the stragglers are prone to mistakes, and often put themselves directly in crossfires. You wonder where the tactical genius that ravaged your homeland is now.

Tech wise, you manage to come up with some advancements in combat data management, filtering, and processing, to turn the slurry of sensor data into actionable intel.

Your crews quickly scour the ship looking for enemy forces, and manage to find almost 120 of the ships former crew holed up in storerooms and cargo containers. However the scariest find is near the engineering compartment, in an access tunnel along side the primary coolant line. A Enemy tech was setting explosives that would detonate when the ship tried to jump. They were disarmed, and your men believe there shouldn't be any more onboard, as the kill lists match up with the data your techs have decyphered.

[Ship has been Cleared - No Sabotage Remains]

You make sure to do a careful job salvaging the remains of the two ships, stripping components and material where you can.

The crew is thankful, and some sembelance of peace is beginning to show between the leadership and the civilian population.

With the data shared from the Diamond Empire, you're able to make advances in getting systems started back up and running properly. Likely to complement the use of captured races, the controls of the ship are designed fairly uniformly for your species, and integration has been mostly flawless. Data, when not boobytrapped with self-deleteing viruses, has been invaluable, and you think you've pinned down the methods the Enemy use for local communication, which are needless to say, much better than your own.

While the actual manufacturing on-demand of wormholes are well beyond your reach, the web-drives do hold many references to the phenomena existing naturally in the galaxy. As the research continues however, certain key parts seem to be classified above the security level of your researchers. You unlock this as they bring this to your attention, and you're terrified of the results. The data suggests that wormhole activity, while originally believe to be restricted to rare events, has increased some 2000% over the past century. Your researchers believe this is indicative of the preparation the Enemy took in coming here.

>Scavenge: Supercarrier

Your crew deftly works their way through the supercarrier, and manage to find one of the cargo bays of the massive hulk. And suddenly you understand why no Enemy wreckage has ever been found at a combat site of the Enemy. They clean their wrecks themselves, not leaving a stray bolt that could be recycled. It's a treasure trove, and you've got dibs.

The Symphony woman sings brief melody that you can only describe as "laughing", before typing on the keyboard, eyes not leaving yours.

"Do not think me ignorant. I know subterfuge when I see it. I have not strayed from this network, nor will I lest you give me leave. I do not think you foolish for doing all this either. I would be weary as well in your position, a freelancer without a home."

She leans back in the chair and seems to make a "I'm waiting" motion, ready for you to ask her questions.

>>7261

Your crews get bogged down in heavy fighting for a few hours, needing resupply at least twice. But as you break through the enemy lines and finish them off, you realize what they were protecting.

Baal-Kin-Kar would look embarrassed to his people, were they to see him now. Fortunately for Baal and his people, they cannot.

"Well, then. I thank you for being so forthcoming, and I, too, shall endeavour to do so in the future." He nods at the computer. "I assume that since you have been looking through our local data you know my name. If I might trouble you for it, I would know yours."

>>7268

She chuckles a bit before replying.

"My where are my manners. While I'm quite capable of communicating through this terminal, my name is… well lets just say there's not an equivalent, but Ill try my best."

She then ponders for a few seconds, the room dead quiet. The silence is soon set aside for a lilting three tone sound followed by a long and, quite frankly, breathtaking chorus. When she finishes, she meets your eyes sheepishly, seemingly embarrased.

"As you can see, not really an equivalent there. But, to continue your comical use of musical metaphor, Aria will suit me just fine."

She covers her mouth before laughing again, this time a little more baudy than before. "You really don't know what to make of our singing do you. No matter. Please, let me reciprocate your kindness. Ask me what you will of our Brothers."

The tinny voice puts a vile twinge on the word Brother, as if she had programmed contempt into the terminal.

Turn 12

The Fleet moves on from the current system to what could be called the middle of the Lao Sho cluster. Notably, there is a significant amount of singularites here, which some among the SOC believe is a good place to hide out for the time being.

1.2. Come down on like the wrath of god upon my scientists and the mettalloids and tell them to get that shipyard built. NOW.

3. Ask for one of the one of the supercarrier's drones and its control system and try and reverse engineer it. The thing didn't even get a chance to launch them and they should be relatively intact.

Special Attribute: Battlemaster Control Computer, Your ship can coordinate combat across the fleet with immpecable accuracy. As a combat action, you may designate a single target. Attacks from other ships in the fleet gain +25 to-hit against that target. This has no use restrictions per encounter.

Hydrogen Fuel scoop:[Gain +1 Fuel/Turn]

Race Name: Solarians

Nation Name: Solarian Hegemony

DCS Membership:Y

Fluff: Solarians are a retiring race, tall and long limbed they rarely leave their systems for anything, Preferring their own systems and lands to exploration or the chaotic places away from them. In Fact the Huntress is a mothballed cruiser that was retired centuries ago, made during a more savage time. Indeed the only reason that she now moves is because of how desperate the destruction of their homeland has made their race. One would think an ancient Solarian Cruiser would be shoddy and worn, but it's not. Solarians ships while hard to repair were made to last and take lots of abuse. Solarians always did hate shoddy craftsmanship.

The huntress is a Standard Warring Era Cruiser, Armed with full weapon compliment and equipped with the crown jewel of Solarian wartech. The Battlemaster Control computer, Allowing the ship to strike often and with a accuracy against whatever foe it may encounter. The ship is however old and much of the knowledge to repair and maintain it has been lost, from age, neglect and death.

Racial Bonus: Solarian Taskmasters, Once per turn you may specify an action that you wish to "Hire Out" You may expend 2 of any resource to give +20 to that roll.

Racial Detractor: Aging Technology, You cannot repair your ships during combat. Instead spend 1 Action out of combat to repair a ship under your control to full. Repairing costs 5 Raw Metal and 3 Exotic Metal

>Research: Hydrogen Scoop

Hydrogen is used to power your ship's secondary power sources, which in turn feed the resulting He3 to your primary propulsion, effectively creating fuel. Your researchers have made a breakthrough and have figured out how to project these fields while in FTL

[+1 fuel a turn Costs 5 ex to build on a ship]

[Enemy Ship Recognition: Standard] -You now are able to recognize Enemy Ships of basic variation without rolling.

[Enemy Wormhole Generator Recognition] -You are now able to scan for Enemy Wormhole Generators within the operational area.

>Research: Particle Projection Cannons

Your researchers manage to dig up some old notes on maintaining PPCs from the head engineer, dating back to the original manufacturing of the ship. They're more anectdotal, but they're a starting point.

[7 Turns, 4 Raw Metal, 6 Exotic Metals]

Your crews trawl the Supercarrier, occasionally skirmishing with the hidden forces of the Enemy in the ship. It becomes clear you could never sieze control of this entire ship without the combined forces of the entire fleet, if even that. However your crews do manage to find one of the primary weapons arrays, of which there are many. It becomes evident that if this ship hadn't gone down as quickly as it did, the Second Battle of Lao Sho would have ended much differently. Your techs describe them as "Thermal Lances"; pure concentrated beams of exotic particles magnetically contained by superconducting coils and magnets with tolerances well above anything you can field. While your researchers admit it's well beyond your current capabilities, they believe they can take the principles therin and recreate the weapon on a much smaller scale.

[Research: Thermal Lances, 5 Turns, 8 Raw Metal, 5 Exotic Metal, 3 Fuel]

1. Work on the shipyard with the diamond empire.

2. Work on Thermal Lance tech. +Solarian overseers: cost 2 food.

3. Scavenge salvage and look at the Second battle sight. We surely have missed things.

Racial Bonus: Vanguard Against the Enemy: Your forces have had limited successes in fighting the Enemy, unlike most others in the DCS, the Cojal Legion being the example of this. Your forces gain +15 to boarding actions, and require one less turn to capture an enemy ship (Minimum of 1 turn).

Racial Detractor: Emotional Decay: Close proximity, combined with a racial depression, has led to a successively worsening mental state among your crew and citizenry. It won't be long before your people see the effects of this state translate into combat and research.

1. Send out one more group to scavenge materials of all types from that ship. Dont send too many, around 50-100, were low on population as it is and I dont think we can tolerate more deaths.

2. Attempt to install genetics laboratories on the corvette(if we have enough resources that is)

3. Send a small group of 20-30 to survey P1u441 for food, water, and other precious materials.
