The Empire will fall, I think. Or maybe the Weave. It all depends if anyone is ever on AIM to talk.

Hopefully not so much controversy will come up over the events of this webstory...but I'm sure that's impossible.

Anyhow, I modified my fleet so it still has the initial 55 million credits assigned:

Modified Beam Cruiser, Endurance :
Shield: 8000
Armor: 600 (+ 900) = 1500
Guns: 8
Turrets: 5
Space: 120
Fuel: 800
Speed: 225 (+ 125) = 350
Accel: 400 (+ 50) = 450
Mass: 725 tons
Crew: 712
Weapons:
3 Pulse Turrets
2 Torpedo Launchers & 20 Torpedoes
2 F-40W Stingray heavy fighters (+ 2 more)
1 High-Energy X-Ray Laser (+ 1 more)
(+ 2 Thermal Lasers) (the beam turret on the cobra that costed only 15,000 credits on Sauron and was kick-butt sweet)

= 14 million

Calan fleet, commanded by Calani Kylethekender545 :
1 modified Beam Cruiser, Flagship Endurance = 14 mil
2 Tavora class Attack Cruisers = 16.4 mil
2 Weave Argosy class Destroyers = 8 mil
6 Calan Destroyers = 16.8 mil
(Fighters carried/included):
4 Stingrays (Endurance)
8 Mantas (Attack Cruisers)
12 Calan Heavy Fighters (Calan Destroyers)
Total: $55.2 mil

General Rak, your fleets may easily defeat the Weave's but just how will they keep up when three other fleets are conquering systems while your two fleets handle the other two?

Okay I'm back from my vactation and ready to start the frenzy of work leading up to starting the webstory tomorrow.

I'll tell you guys right off that at the moment I have no idea what the status of the map is, I don't have access to AIM at the computer I am at right now, and therefore havn't been able to converse with my mapmaker. I can tell you that we talked before I left on vacation thursday and that he was confident that it would be done by today.

I hope this will be one of the last posts in this topic, very soon I will be starting an new one that will need to include all the important information pertaining to the webstory.

EvilSquirrel: There really isn't room for another Pirate faction in this story, I would prefer that you have a talk with RMA about possibly being a fleet commander for the Blackthorne Corporation (Got it right this time?).

Hmmmm? We're not the ones bickering, we're just the both of us bickering with Rak.

I want to register as Brox. I'm asriel's friend, by the way. I'll post on the signup thread with a fleet soon, as soon as I can figure out how much money they get for a fleet.

------------------

Ipvicus, your outfitter page on the site isn't working. And please get the map up sometime. Oh, and are we actually starting tomorrow?

Circumstances have conspired to possibly delay the start of the webstory till wednesday. My map maker was supposed to do the map while I was away on vacation and have it done by tonight so I could start the story tomorrow. Unfortuantly he decided to procrastinate and I am not sure if he will have it ready by tomorrow. Since I was planing on releasing the map a day before the webstory started in order to give everyone some time to organize all the snipets of nefarious plots they have had floating around in their minds, it looks like I will have to wait until wednesday to give everyone that time. If he gets the map to me soon enough and you guys still want to start tomorrow we can do that, but most likley it won't be ready by then.

How's: just start it a good day after the map is up? It's not fair that Rak gets an eternity to plot, and I'm working off practically nothing here (never played Empire). : )

Maybe there was some confusion on Rak's part: My 1st post said I wanted to be a pirate under Shade, not a new faction. Is Shade still a "leader" (I don't think pirates have presidents)? I'd be happy to serve under RMA if that was dropped.

Shade isn't playing. There are two Pirate Factions, one led by myself and another led by RMA.
