The Lost Fleet: Game Thread

[Tambien]

Sorry for the delay. School is being a beast ATM.

 

[filli_noctus]

If it's not going to distract you from your education too much, would you be able to give me a breakdown of the shuttle types on the Agamemnon? As the Akira class is described as a carrier in the fluff I've looked into I'm assuming a good chunk of them are fighters/torpedo bombers at the moment (one piece of fluff states that the Akira class can carry 40-50 fighters).

 

[Tambien]

Star Trek does not use fighters. Shuttle craft are, however outfitted with rudimentary sheilding systems and 1 or 2 phaser banks.

 

[filli_noctus]

Depends what non-canon sources you use. Do I take it that for gameplay purposes a shuttle is a shuttle is a shuttle then?

Non-cannon sources are irrelevant.

 

[filli_noctus]

Non-cannon sources are irrelevant.

That would explain the confusion, according to Memory Alpha the Luna class is non-canon.

 

[MajKira]

Lunar has of course photooons^^
Kira comes back!!
Nooo, joking^^

Ok, that made no sense whatsoever...

I agree that it made no sense.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

None. So don't Give MajKira the satisfaction of responding to his/her posts.

So, Tambien, reply from the alien soon? Or did I cover his questions well enough?

Let me rephrase: Video game cannon is NOT cannon. Books are.

Will get to it. Have been extrordinarily busy, although he is almost satisfied.

Gotcha. Shouldn't come up too much, but good to know.

USS Leonidas

"We need someplace to disembark the civilians, there is not enough space to keep them on-ship for much longer.

Major Action:

If there is no objection from the Temeraire, go on a longer-range exploratory patrol to the central blue-white binary star system, as per normal Federation exploratory procedures.

Action Response: USS Leonidas

You read 2 planets and an asteroid field. You also get anomalous energy readings from around the second planet.

USS Nomad

Actions:

• Without giving away our presence, try to listen in on any planet based communications to try and determine either what the natives call their planet or what they call themselves. Use that to name system. If not possible to listen in, or not possible/unable to figure out what they refer to themselves as, then give system a provissional name of LMC-G-1 until a name can be decided on.
• Move to orange/yellow star on left of map and perform similar scans.

Action Response: Nomad

You hear radio broadcasts and see early television. You find out that the predominant species there looks like this. They call themselves the Fraisnan, their planet Fraisna, and their star Ainderso. You also find out that their home planet is split into three superstates, Moiuhn, Naiskao, and Gaorstia.

You leave for the nest star. (You will get there early in Week 3)

Major action: if Prometheus allows, move some stasis pods to the nightingale for study. Determining if we can replicate it to store the civilians safely.

Minor action: begin medical services to the civilian fleet and othe star fleet ships.

Action Response: Nightingale

Prometheus did not reply to your request, so you cant transport them over.

You spend 3 medical supplies.

I am Captain Steven Cryka of the Federation starship Prometheus. We are in a satellite galaxy of what we call the Milky Way Galaxy. We were pulled here by some unknown anomaly and found wrecked ships when we first got here. We investigated and found your people.
You are not imprisoned. I'm only keeping you here until you get your bearings. You have been in those stasis pods, from what my scientists tell me, for over 300 years. Sit down and we shall try to figure out what happened.

Federation? Milky Way Galaxy? What is going on?

Orders:
Scanners to maximum, chart all celestial phenomena within range during the journey.

Action Response: Agamemnon

You generate the same starmap that the other ships have generated.

----

We will go to Week 3 as soon as the various conversations are wrapped up.

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

Federation? Milky Way Galaxy? What is going on?

((Didn't even notice I had a request from the Nightingale... could that player repost it so I can reply?))

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

The Federation is or was a group of multiple species over an entire quadrant of a galaxy called the Milky Way. Let me show you where we are on star charts. You might have been transported here by the same anomaly.

((Shows him the star charts))

We are from this quarter of the large galaxy beside this one. That large galaxy is what we call the Milky Way galaxy. We are stranded. I am curious, is there any general area on our star charts that you recognize?

Impossible. Multiple species cannot work together. In any event, we recognize nothing on your charts.

OOC: Just say you give permission now, Nightingale will get a new action that gets them to study.

USS Leonidas

Determine planetary classes for the terrestrial planets. Scan the asteroid field and stars for objects of interest. With great caution, move to the second planet and try to determine what the energy readings are.

 

[TerrisH]

To Prometheus:
These stasis pods offer a interesting possibility for the long term viability of our mission, and insuring that the civilians suffer minimal discomfort.
If you still have a working example of would you mind us sending some personnel over to bring it to the Nightingale for study? Also, would you ask these Draskan if we may perform a passive medical scan of them and the other recovered group, so we may perform a comparative analysis to determine if they have suffered any long term effects from their stint in stasis?
If there are no long term effects from the stasis, and replication of the pods are possible, it would be highly recommended to put the majority of the civilian population in stasis, to minimize resource consumption. it would greatly extend our operational range and logistics.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

To: Nightingale

Nightingale, this is Temeraire Actual. We have Aboard 2 of these pods. We will transfer them over to you, along with all notes and data taken, both when in Use and during activation.

If you manage to replicate these pods, we can perhaps begin to transfer civilians, and begin work on construction of the Space Station, using the civilian Ships as cores.

To Prometheus:

Request that aliens elect an Ambassador. Also, keep an eye on them, and assess their potential as members of the Federation.

To: ALL Federation Vessels

As you explore, keep an eye out for valuable resources.




Minor action: Transfer pods + Data to Nightingale.
