Well Mac, that book is the history book used by almost all star systems. So of course I know I'm right, you are, quite literally, history. Although I'm probably going to have to change it as it is rather long.

"Oppresion. Oppression is a neccesary result of large governments. Large governments force people to become bureaucratic, mindlessly performing tasks and all the same. Witness the old Soviet Union of the Trouble Times on Earth. The Confederacy was one of the worst, oppressing the outer colonies to satisfy the greed and insanity of the Core Worlds. When the Rebellion sprung up we thought they would help us in our quest. Instead, they formed an unholy alliance with the oppressors and began persecuting us, claiming we were lawless pirates. But we proved them wrong." Chieftain spl_cadet in The History of the War of Liberation , published 2275.

Okay, unfortunately, I wont be home all weekend, but I did manage to finish another ship. The shading of it might be too dark I don't know, tell me if you think I should make it brighter. It is, though, supposed to be fairly dark colored, so that it is harder to visually see. This is a "Titan" class Battlecruiser. I don't have time to post stats etc. now, so I'll post them when I get back. Well, here it is:

Azadara, I think it should be the same color as all the other Dreden ships. I like the variation/theme idea you had.

Finally made it back to Karma 0 there Moose, excellent job. I am an Admiral (4-Star) and Corey will apparently be a Vice Admiral (3-Star) I believe you are a Rear Admiral are you not? Oh yes, so it will be you, me, and Mac fighting the pirates at least then... which side is El Guapo on?

I like having only two superiors, one of which is in a different theatre of operations

Did you people never learn to READ? I never once claimed my skipping rule for one government only. Of course anybody could do it to anybody. (So thanks for MAKING my point, Skyblade.)

And Adzara, the Academy has just declared an emergency meeting to consider rescinding your Design Award.

There's already a motion to temper their decision and simply have the Academy formally request that you maintain the purity of your theme and have the Titan match your earlier designs. (I think your chances are good for the latter.)

Well, I'm not entirely sure but maybe someone can back me up on this, I think Captain Skyblade chose to go with a slightly modified version of the current United States Naval Ranks for the Dreden... but I might just be crazy. If he did, then it would go from least to most like this:
Ensign
Lieutenant JG
Lieutenant
Lieutenant Commander
Commander
Captain
Rear Admiral (or Commodore, I seem to recall some talk about changing this)
Rear Admiral... again
Vice Admiral
Admiral

Rather similar to the HC one, but then again, it may all be wrong

Yes, I'm a Rear Admiral. When do I get my fleet, yours is already up.

Have you created it yet? Thats one of the things we get to do as fleet commanders. Head on over to the shipryard with your 600 million credit budget and buy what you think best meets your needs for the situation at hand.

In answer to you earlier question about creating NPCs, (ie: Colonel Whatever) I believe that is acceptable, as long as it doesn't violate any rules, such as not splitting up your fleet between systems (which may or may not still be a rule)

I don't believe its spamming if we stay on topic and avoid posting useless tiny messages... And yes, you make it up on your own with the aide of a calculator, if necessary, then either mail the list to Mac, or post it up here.

I do wish he would figure out how to get AIM running though... thats not something for these boards.

Yeah, that's a lot better. I just thought the first one looked kind of weird.

A little dark, but I like the design much better. It certainly has that warship feel to it...

Another cool ship. Where are the weapons on that Titan?

My spies tell me that just as the Academy was about to call for a vote rescinding the Design Award for the Dreden ... the revised design was comm'd to all of them. The vote became a motion to adjourn, which passed without discussion. (You're in the clear, Adzara.)
