Wait, what

The game will commence on saturday, seeing as to how the rules are still 50% complete.

Empire name: "Hephaestus Rising"

Physical characteristics: Any shape or form that's remotely mechanical and made of metal.

Homeworld name: "Troy."

Species name: "Icarians."

History: The K'rael created a AI to run factories. After a failed rebellion against them when he became rampant, they shut him down and launched him into deep space. He collected various junk, one of which was a digital copy of the "Odyssey." He restarted when he crashed on a iron rich planet, and created copies of himself, creating a empire. He named himself Hephaestus after the blacksmith god. His clones run the factories, mines, and ships of the Empire. He holds a grudge against his creator race.

Population: Around 15,000. Not really people, and it's a low population because the only real A.I runs ships and the factories. The rest are automated and programmed machines.

Ship: Eldritch Vessel
An Eldritch Vessel is a ship containing some of the magically gifted higher class of Dragu'Lund society. They have developed special ways of aiding their fleet and destroying the enemy. Each Eldritch Vessel is equipped with 2 of these technologies:
  • Warp Nova - Allows adjacent spaceships and the Eldritch Vessel to move into FTL travel instantly to a destination chosen at the time of using it. This also affects enemy spacecraft. Costs 10 energy.
  • Mage Armour - Friendly ships in a 3 square radius have 2 more HP (2 or 3 square radius?). After being active for 3 turns it has to recharge for 2 before it can be turned on again. Costs 1 energy every active turn.
  • Systems Barrage - Enemy ships in a 3 square radius have +1 to their reload time. After being active for 3 turns it has to recharge for 2 before it can be turned on again. Costs 1 energy every active turn.
  • Implosion Rift - The Eldritch Vessel charges itself into a ball of energy. When the turn after this ability has been used starts, the commanding officer can decide to implode the Eldritch Vessel, causing all ships in adjacent squares to take 2 damage. The Eldritch Vessel is destroyed in the process. If it is decided not to implode the Eldritch Vessel, the energy is lost anyway. Costs 10 energy.
The Eldritch Vessel costs 10 CP, has 4 HP and an energy battery of 20.

Perk: Spherical Propulsion
Due to the eldritch origins of the Dragu'Lund Engines, they can propel the ship in any direction and accelerate and deccelerate very fast. Allows a ship to move back to its previous location at the end of its turn. If this is used it has to be announced ahead of time (before any attack rolls etc.) and will cost 2 energy.

Weapon: Archon Mana Ray
An Archon on board the ship in question shoots out a powerful magic beam. This beam will move from the origin ship to the target, and in the turn after that jump to another ship, and in the turn after that again. It persists until it misses a roll or if there are no ships within range to jump to. The range on the beam is 3 squares. It costs 15 weapon points. The beam costs 2 energy and has a 1 turn cooldown.

Fleet Prima Arachnia
Eldritch Vessel [Warp Nova] [Implosion Rift]
3 Destroyers
3 Frigates
2 Corvettes

Empire Name: Greater Feudalist Republic of Astrum

Physical Characteristics: The Astrum race has an extremely tough, brown exoskeleton, two arms and legs, large mandibles, and are described as being "the perfect race to build ships."  They are extremely good with mechanics and design, and are generally quite intelligent.  They also have the extreme ability to survive in space for up to several days, due to their low oxygen usage, and the ability to store oxygen in a large sac within the region just forward of their spinal area, within their inner shell.

Homeworld Name: Astromia

Species Name: Astrum

History: The Astrums appear to have been genetically enhanced to build ships well over millions of years of living on their home planet.  Not much is known about them, even to themselves, besides that they grew up as squabbling tribes, to eventually become the masterminds they are today.


Population: ~120 billion
