The Chiron Chronicle: Discussions (Restart 3)

[Sprayber]

It all sounds ok to me. I don't know about landmarks counting for votes though. But since Sparta has the Sunny Mesa, I won't raise a fuss about it.

I will tally all the votes, so don't worry by being complicated :P

I am not worried about that, I would just like a list of how many votes each faction gets before the election, so that I can do some arithmetics

Otherwise, tres bien.

Will add PTS to one of Believer bases, also a slight change of word use regarding terraforming (nothing big).

New PK bases...

Okay, I submit the following for your approval...

These are the new bases I've been mumbling about...

U.N. Temple of Sol, location 108, 66
Base is rebuilt.
This base really isn't new, but it was totally destroyed during the first Spartan war about 80 years ago. It was never properly rebuilt and repopulated until after the Second Spartan War was officially over.

One additional PK land base was founded in 2192 and that is U.N. Pillar of Rights, location 105,73

New PK sea bases:

U.N. Port Liberty, founded 2185, location 126,110

U.N. Safe Passage, founded 2195, location 94,94
Just off the Hive coast. I suspect Yang won't be too happy...
The base has the required facilities to serve as a forward base of operations for the U.N. Navy, but there is currently little activity in the area as we're trying to avoid any unnecessary provocations...

New Hope (PK outpost on Western Continent), location 13,89
Just southeast of Unity Wreckage, halfway between Spore Runner Sanctum and Far Jericho.

In addition, there is currently a PK naval task force at location 4,90 and another smaller one at location 18,86. Both these forces are moving around a bit, so not just sitting there. More like patrolling the area. -And yes, they will attempt to intercept any weapon shipments and stuff like that, but unlikely to use force to stop them.
(We'll think of something else... )

If there are no objections, I'll go with this stuff. I'll get my admin-post ready within another couple of days...
(-I hope! )

Here's what I think:

Believers-: Maybe Planetary Transit System or Virtual World

Gaians have Weather Paradigm, Empath Guild, Pholus Mutagen, Second Xenoempathy dome.

Cult has: Xenoempathy Dome

Peacekeepers: Merchant Exchange, Citizens Defense Force

MOrgan: Merchant Exchange, Planetary Energy Grid

Pirates: Marinetime Control Center

Spartans: Second Weather Paradigm, Command Nexus

University: Human Genome Project (yes), Longivity Vaccine(no construction, planned), Planetary Datalinks (yes)?

Hive: Ascetic Virtues, Cyborg Factory(near completion)

Data Angels: Virtual World, Citizen's Defence Force, Hunter-Seeker Algorithm(joint with Cyborgs)

Cyborgs: Hunter-Seeker Algorithm(joint with angels), possibly working on Cyborg Factory or something else?

Free Drones: Cloudbase Academy

[Guardian]

Heh!
I just listened to some quotes and stuff from the game... (SMAC, that is...)

Santiago has a sexy voice!
-Just too bad she's so... Spartan!

[Sprayber]

You can't have her Guardian. She is mine.


Aki isn't half bad either. But not as sexy as Santiago..

[Sprayber]

LMP: I'm with Kass in asking for the number votes for each faction. Just to develope a little stratigy. Opps I mean

Kass: Just so you know. The senior Spartan officer in your territory is Major Anthony Burke. He reports directly to Marshal Kessel and to Colonel Santiago. If you need to have discussions with Spartan military personal, Burke is the man you can talk to. Is there anyone in particular that Burke would communicate with for official purposes?

[Mr. President]

Sorry I've not posted for a while, but I've had school and other distractions (like playing Alpha Centauri - remember that game? Just kidding!).

I also think Santiago is attractive. Deirdre is supposed to be the "beautiful" one, but she's too stereotypical for my taste. And then there's all that green communist garbage.

Anyway, enough fooling around. I'm heading over to the Planetary Council thread (the Governor should be around for that, shouldn't he? Oh well).

Heh! Don't want her. Santiago's not my style, really.
I'd be much more likely to hang out with Deirdre, but I guess she might find me too militant and paranoid...

I actually have a thing or two in common with the more "hard line" Peacekeepers like General Braddock. Politicly, I guess I'm somewhere in between Braddock and Lal. So, it's both easy and fun for me to play them because I can identify with them both.

My chief military advisor, a member of the Crusade Committee and my Third in Command, General Jacob Peterson has been appointed as the Committee attache considering military operations with other factions. Now I'm off to Council thread to nominate the Believer representative.

(BTW; will add him to my Admin ASAP.)

Hey, People!!!
Can´t you read the admin! Even Blake wrote ages ago that the Cult has also The Human Genome Project. After that, the Xeno dome was built.

And Sprayber, yes one of the Cult´s motives was that the Spartans were major polluters, but officially everything was pure business Troops for tech...

[Clear Skies]

Cyborgs also have a Citizens' Defence Force I believe - not about to give that up after arguing for it!

I know I was supposed to return recently, but there have been several problems.

First, my ISP is shifting to a new carrier this month, so I'm having considerable trouble in connecting to the Net. It should be cleared up by the end of the month.

Second, I really don't know whether to bother returning. Last time I was playing all I seemed to do was cause arguments; plus I'm not really wonderfully happy about playing the two smallest factions and keep being told I have to give up one.

Anyway, I should be on occasionally this week. I'll make my decision by the end of the week, I should think. Do people want me back?

[Guardian]

Welcome back, SMAC!
-And yes, I do want you back.
It seems the Peacekeepers have some unfinished business with both Gaians and Cyborgs... we really need to get our relations sorted out! The Peacekeepers are no longer mad at the Cyborgs, but I don't know how close we'd be at this time... I was hoping you could help me figure it out. As for the Gaians, I see no reason not to be friends with them, but some of them might be a little sniffy still about certain troop movements in and around their territory a few years ago...

So, what do you have to say about it all?

[Cyber]

We definately want you back, SMAC fanatic!

You´re a vital part in the western continents politics and survival of the Cult, as is its the worst possible timing for the Gaians to be without a player.
And if you´ve caused arguments, then I should be the God of causing arguments, as I probably pissed off atleast half the players when I was in control of the Spartans.
