Only 2 people have joined so I made a new thread list.

OK, here is how things stand:
--------------------------------------------
Rules:
1.No all-powerful weapons that can't be stopped.
2.There are two solar systems: Delta and Echo
3.Delta has 6 planets, Echo has 9.
4.You can have moons and rings around your planet, but combined they cannot go over 8.
5.Name your faction, planet,what system your planet is in, and how many rings and moons are around your planet.
6.You start with 2 bases.
7.Reasearch goal takes one day, projects take 2-4 days depending on the size and how many Workers are in your faction.
8.You can make projects that AREN'T in SMAC, but you have to explain what they do(eg. A project that shields 2 of your bases).
9.You factions citzens are broken into 4 groups:Air(Space) Force Pilots, Army, Scientists, and Workers.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "Echo" the <i>military</i> designation? Shouldn't it be "Epsilon Centauri"?

Spider
"Echo"=Military; "Epsilon"=Scientific.

Spider: No I just needed a military letter for a system. Alpha=A, Beta=B, ?=C, Delta=D, Echo=E, etc.

Kaljar: Thanks for joining. Is the Planatery Shield a project? If so look at rule 8. OK

I hope more of you will join, such as you Spider.

Pinko, you just don't get it, do you?! Star systems have <i>scientific</i> designations, <b>not</b> military designations!!!!!

Spider
And no, I will not join!

"The Planetary Shield" is, I suppose, a secret project (not any more ). It is a shield that protects Silvernia from interplanetary, interstellar attacks.

Spider: Can you say "I Don't Care"?

Kaljar:There are no secret projects, since you have to tell what your bases are working on.

The sequence follows the Greek Alphabet -- Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta ... there's 18 more, but you can check any dictionary or encylcopedia for the Greek Alphabet.

Ah, hell, might as well finish it here.

Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda, Mu, Nu, Xi, Omicron, Pi, Rho, Sigma, Tau, Upsilon, Phi, Chi, Psi, Omega.

This naming convention alone allows for 2,112 stars (88 constellations w/ 24 letters of the alphabet). I'm not an astronomer, so I don't know how the rest of the visible stars are named. This includes stars with "real" names like Sirius (Alpha Lyrae) and, of course, Rigel Kentaurius, or as we know it, Alpha Centauri.

Not that any of you care, but I confused Sirius with Vega (Vega is Alpha Lyrae; Sirius is Alpha Canis Majoris).

Sorry. Can we get back to the game? I admit it I WAS WRONG to give the system a military name but i can't change it now.

Duodecimal:Will you join?

Duodecimal, do I know you from somewhere?

Where you the leader of the Klackon Empire in TSL on Kali?

Oh no! I'm infamous!

Yes, I was until the Collapse ... and I take it you were known as Holio (or AoYoS, always thought the two were the same for some reason).

As to joining - I got Alpha Centauri three (3) days ago, can't beat the game on Talent level against the AI as the UoP, and have *no* idea what this thread and most of the other threads are about except perhaps in the context of online AC leagues.

So... I think I'll be in the background for a while until I'm pretty sure I won't embarrass myself (too late?).

Or I can just embrace the term Newbie and throw myself on y'all's mercy. Yes, I think I'll do that instead. OK, I'm in. Now what?

It's a Newbie! Run for it!

Pinko, I just realized something. I'm supposed to have 30,000 scientists and 20,000 workers. Your post switches that.

IC: We have set up our four bases, New Berlin, New Paris, New London, and New Tokyo(can you see a pattern? ). N London is constructing Recycling Tanks, N Berlin is constructing a Space Carrier, N Paris is constructing Space Fighters, and N Tokyo is constructing Space Marines. N Philadelphia has finished its Space Marines and is now working on a Human Genome Project. Aqedu Command has finished the Space Elevator and is now working on a Recreation Commons.

OOC:Sorry JT 3

IC:Our three bases have been set up they are: Commy Hights, Stalian, and Pinko Centrol(?).
C.H. is working on the planetary Transit System. Stalian is constructing a Global Radar System which mototers the whole planets's surface. P.C is constructing a planetary defense system that can attack any U.F.O.'s entering or leaving the planet. N.M. is finished with its project and is now working on designing war-ships.

OOC:another rule i thought of: You have to explain your ships.

IC: C.L. had problems and is still working on its project.
Our research goal is now:Advanced Space-Ships

My citzens:35,000 scientists, 30,000 in the Air Force, 30,000 workers, and 35,000 army.

OOC: Hello fellas! I'm kind of new at this, so don't be too hard on me!

Okay, I think the Planetary Defense systems are a little out of hand. Go play SMAC. Buils a base late in the game, and then immediatly set it to, say, Tachyon Field. The nubmer of turns should prove my point. Not to mention that field is just for one city.

Tone it down a little bit.

Set up three new bases: Sosialyst Forpost, Lenin's Pamyatnik and Ravenstvo Gorots.

OOC: In case you were wondering, these names are in Russian written out into the English alphabet as how you pronounce them. Beat that you try-hard communist person Pinko

IC: Silvern has finished the Planetary Shield and is now building up a decent air force.

Marxington: More base facilities (you know what I mean )

SF: Increasing army.
LP: Base facilities
RG: Moon Colonisation Program

C.P.: Ok general send 10,000 men from our Army and 2,500 Scientists to study the creatures.
D.R.: We can spare 2,500 more scientists if you wish.
C.P.: No that won't be neccesary.
D.R.:Very well
C.P.: Ganeral, doctor Dismissed.

OOC: Yes, of course I do, but I didn't pick that up until now. Still, you haven't declared yourself completely for the cause with your name. (I use many other names in my exploits (internet). I more thing, that still kindof makes you a tryhard . Do you have a copy of the book?

IC: Same as always...
