I claim GJ 1002 for the Tronkin empire and rename it to the Tronkin name : Rana, meaning first

The tronkin empire

The Tronkin are a race of reptillian creatures about 1m long. Though they are not physically strong, they are quite smart and cunning. The Tronkin spawn in large spawning swamps, leading to a high but vulnerable reproduction rate. The first 6 months the hatchlings combat for food in the swamps, leaving only the most cunning alive. The Tronkin care much about the evolution of their own species wich created their motto: dying is failing

The Tronkin are however only hostile to other species when endangered or insulted.

Tronkin society

The tronkin empire is ruled by the emperor who is chosen by the eldar counsil every 20 years. The eldar counsil is formed by all Tronkin above the age of 110, meaning only 2% of the population will ever vote. The thought behind this is that those who survive are worthy of ruling the empire.

Where do we post Faction profiles?

Can you rename my system: Caprica.

Detailed faction profiles should be posted in the Custom Ships forums IIRC.
And label the thread so everyone knows it's for Cold War

I want L674-15, with that name.

Kira War Outpost L674-15

Kiran explorers have set up a small war outpost in unknown territory, leaving a small retinue of troops, and enough resources and facilities to construct and upkeep a small fleet. The massive stealth generators left around the star-system have finally expired, and the small empire has been revealed to the world.

The Kira

From the unknowns of a far-off universe, the Kira were created. Mechanical armored suits, with sentience - what could even be described as a soul. Standing taller and more lithe then the average human, the average Kiran have sleek, gray armor, and a jetpack with two fins attached to the back. They are bested by none when it comes to ground combat. Howver, the Kira are still a fledgling when it comes to space combat in comparison to their expertise in ground war.

Yay, double post since edit won't work for me.

This should be moved to Tournaments...

Moving to tournaments isn't a terrible idea. I had considered posting it there, but the discussion was already present in this forum.

Anyway, I think we've got quite a few players right now - might want to consider leaving it here. After all, the more players, the more we have to wait for people to build ships and decide on their actions in a given turn.

Are the defenses rules final?

TehJarl · Post by **TehJarl** » Sun Apr 20, 2008 7:13 pm

I think I'll quit this. Not enough time.

I think I found someone who will replace Jarl.

The Illumi race is requesting a name change of their home system's star from Tau Ceti to Illumos. Your cooperation in this would be greatly appreciated by the Republic, Comus.

I'm okay with replacing players who drop out - I just don't want to have so many it becomes unworkable.

I'm thinking of using my VA fleet for this, sine it's already pretty much stock balanced :p
Maybe I'll tweak it a bit..will see..

Will Kinetic Missles be allowed? And if so how should they be classed?

Edit: I forgot, will you change my system name to Kareth.

Ah. Now there's a good question. They're a good tactical option, just like space stations. How about pricing them at half of the value of their intended target?
