War of the Nest (OOC)
« on: November 12, 2003, 07:11:29 am »
The War of the Nest has come about due to the events in The Grand Council.  Basically, the Androsynth kicked the Orz out of Vulpeculae, but simultaneously the Orz finished *nesting* on the planet below the Ur-Quan research station.  The result, to all appearances, is a living creature of planet-sized proportions and a lot of new Orz ships that are not suseptible the limitations of *smell*.

Truly, fun for the entire family :D  Look forward to at least the Androsynthetic's contributions, though right now I've other matters IRL to attend to.

So, is no one going to fight back against the Orz menace yet?

Ummm... what system/planet was the research station thinger at again?  It's kind of hard for the Axiom to send ships to an unknown location, and the Ur-Quan don't seem to be speaking at all.

I believe I suggested Gamma Horologii II...

unfortunately no one but the Orz and the Ur-Quan know that In Character.

Yes, a tragedy indeed.

Rider -- if you read this, at least private message your Axiom buddies this information.  We can't roll until we know, and the Androsynth aren't going to go looking too heavily for this place, what with repopulating their civilian centres and all.

You might even want to tell the entire council where this happened, so that everyone may lend a hand.  Enough people seem interested.

Well, there is a undead fleet heading towards the research station, simply on the grounds that the dead KNOW these things. They can sense it, like an itch on the face of the universe. However, it'll take them some time to arrive.

The Imperial Navy wont make it yet though, as they've no clue where this place is. Unless the Quan start talking that is.
Round and round it goes, where it stops nobody knows

I suppose the Arilou could always let the rest of the Axiom know, and then the Androsynthetics could share the information... but I want to give Rider his chance here.

And if nothing else, the Orz could begin their offensive into Quasispace next...

Or perhaps MOUNT A FUTILE ATTEMPT TO reclaim the Ta'alo playground from the Androsynth...

According to the messanger that just arrived the Orz have turned away from the Utwig and head for our currently covert research station wich was located right below your section of space.


As I said. But I'll look for a more clear system... in a moment.

And it is: Alpha Lacertae! Just check the Starcontrol Maps if you can't find it.

Well, Rider, you have to TELL people this, IC, and I think you and Erek should agree on where this is actually going down, especially with Azolero ranting about Fomalhaut.

Isn't Fomalhaut the Utwig "home planet" in SC3?

I know, I didn't get to that because I was at school at the moment. Nevertheless I posted the system so you people could get... err... your stories ready, yeah that's it! I was giving you the opportunity to prewrite your stories.

I'm not all that stupid, besides that, this would be THE opportunity to discuss the location before I make it "public"

Update: well you blew it, I already posted it. (laughs maniacally

Ok, just so noone gets worried, I am not trying to godmodd the ilwrath fleet. Naturally, they will take causalties. But it will be damn hard to dent them, and as there is no other race around yet, i dont really want to see them in an all out war before we have a proper tactical headquarter.

The time for change will soon be upon us.

I speak for the dead. They are not gone you see. Oh no. Do you see? Maybe you do... But they are here. All around us. And they need someone. Someone to say what they cannot. Someone to speak for them.

Indeed...

Keep in mind that many things which will kill a living being would incapacitate a coporeal undead...

But expect the Orz to be prepared next time.  After all, part of space marine training is how to dodge...
