How it's played, in short:
Anyone can vote on national issues every turn(with turns being 6 months in-universe) and whenever there is a special prompt for an event, warfare and the like. You can propose ideas, seek support for yours, tell everyone why the other guy's plan is terrible and would bankrupt the nation. You can go a step further by playing as a faction within the nation - an organisation with assets and agendas of its own. Expand your power and influence within the nation whilst also shaping its future development, create coalitions, pursue private projects, develop characters that represent your faction - even the sky itself is no longer the limit!

The nation's collective capacities are represented with its stats, posted with each update, representing mostly abstract parameters of the nation's wellbeing; More concrete things, which I generally call "Assets" are listed in the pastebin and google docs.

Most recently, a small alien warband invaded the planet of New Perth, a member of your Extrasolar Free State. A major force of ships and troops was sent to respond, yet no mortal combat ensued as the matter was resolved with, of all things, a game of Futureball, the All-Stars Navy-Army-Marine team assembled on the spot managing to narrowly triumph over the physically imposing Drazerii warriors, who in respect of this victory left the system in peace, having indulged in the consumption of beer, burgers, brawls and ball games.

Exploration of the sector of space between our chief systems - Eterani and Tawagata - has now revealed all stars of note, revealing viable locations for the establishment of waystations, lesser mining outposts and two planetary candidates for colonization, both being classified as Class IV worlds, almost perfectly suited for habitation.

Updates on the starmap are in progress.

With the growth of our nation and our development constantly raising, it s only natural that we finally do some last steps for make our military an equal of the other ones in human space. With this said the structures that we will build are needed for this steps and will help a lot the on going work on the army of the Solar Marshall Javier in this decade. As well for the other military branches of the EFS. - New army and naval academies. The current naval academy on Selestine can t do all the job alone, but in recognition to creating so many excellent officers and soldiers it will be expanded. With this we will have more location to draw officers from and in the future this will prove even more beneficial.
- New barracks and training grounds. The Militia, Sheriffs, the Army, the Marines and other branches would all need better locations for form recruits and create well train soldiers. This like the academies will prove useful for our military.

Clarifications on some terms:

Planets are categorized for their habitability/exploitation potential from Class I(Practically worthless) to Class V(Earth-like). This takes into account gravitation, natural resources, atmosphere, flora & fauna and other factors. Selestine, your chief planet, was originally a class III planet. Nigel's World on the other hand was considered a class IV or V, depending on whom you ask(majority opinions pointing to V).

The new map shows a general picture of a system's development level. It basically goes from red to green, with a dark green like Sol being the highest level and dark red being the lowest level, such as Jack Rabbit, inhabited only by outposts. Low-development/habitability colonial systems are in shades of orange, mid-range ones are in shades of yellow.


25 pixels on the map are roughly equivalent to a parsec (which in turn is roughly 3,3 light years). Through the use of fixed Vowgates, the optimal hyperspeed that can be achieved is 4 hours for a parsec. Modern hyperdrives travelling to a system with familiar coordinates, along a well-trod navigational path that has no Vowgate hyperlane however, will cross a parsec in 12 hours at best. Stops for hyperfuel and regular fusion fuel have to be taken into account and it is often the case that ships will spend more time travelling in regular space, at sublight speeds, for longer than they will in hyperspace, making a journey from Sol to Eterani a bit more complex than just the 24 hours spent in hyperlane travel.

Financial audits on government spending are underway.

ICS Chairman Chervenkov announced a bold expansion policy recently that has seen the Syndicate claiming new sectors of space and settling more systems.


Yamada Corp has announced that it is developing its own version of the Vowgate hyperlane system that is expected to break the monopoly. Such is the fate of all secretive technologies, sooner or later, as it was with hyperdrives a hundred years ago.

In orbit around EZP-134 are two planets - a class II fuel-rich barren planet and a terrestrial planet with a mildly toxic atmosphere, containing primitive local flora and adapted fauna. Earthen plant species can thrive on the planet, but humans and other Earthen animals require filtration to breathe properly. Breathing without a mask leads to the accumulation of toxins, causing a person to lose consciousness within 3 minutes. Atmospheric terraformation can correct this in time, though it may adversely affect the native lifeforms. Mineral wealth is on the lesser side here.

WYN-84 holds four planets, one of them a ringed gas giant that is the prime source of fuels. A planet lies almost in the Goldilocks zone, with an arid climate, very little humidity being present, with only the arctic areas being easily habitable for humans. Oxygen and gravity are quite fine otherwise. Mineral wealth on this planet and the others in the system is fairly high.

Pioneering efforts are now beginning. Give some names to these systems/planets whilst I take a food break.

Initial pioneer settlements on Sulfuria and Gobi are established. If you wish to allocate a budget for their terraformation(or just for one of them), you may propose it alongside another turn action now, as everything is already set up.

The fleet modernization program has been finished.
Financial audits have been conducted. With our mixed economic model, finances and production run parallel to each other. Economic growth is decent, human development is high and the population boom continues on, but the price for this has been a somewhat stagnant financial situation - the budget is just barely balanced at present. We would have to either leverage more taxes or curb spending increases whilst the economic base naturally progresses and a reserve accumulates if we wish to make a significant improvement on the financial front. The issue at the core of it, according to the statists, is that our taxes are too low and should be raised. Moderates think our situation is fine for now as we are not in any crisis and growth is high. Minarchists believe our administration and/or military - depending on their stance on pacifism - have become too bloated already.

An investment into colonial facilities, the establishment of a state-owned terraforming company and negotiations with the Japanese Migrant Fleet are approved.

The Migrant Fleet - in its entirety - is in theory a home to million of Japanese, heirs of the lost islands. Most of their people by now are settled in one place or another, with major communities across the Pacific Ocean, Alpha Centauri, Yamada and Dagda. Some communities are fully integrated, but most preserve at least partial contact with the Migrant Fleet. The people of the Fleet are never all in one place and they're never all in their respective home ships either - there is a certain system of rotation for many of them, spending months or years on planets as guest workers, often on newly colonized worlds, before returning to the fleet with what they've earned. Splinters of the fleet in turn are spread out across human space, not so rare a sight in our own space in fact.
Our diplomatic corps has struck a deal with Solar Shogun Fuza Ashikanaro, head of the leading triumvirate. The fleet will be provided preferential rates for repairs and refueling in Extrasolar space, while in turn they will open themselves to more exchange with us, allowing exotic goods and technologies to reach our own markets in the near future.

The Federation easily agrees to the proposed medical exchange program. Expect a report on a variety of alien species next session.

In Space News, a great military parade is held on Mars as the Interstellar Cooperative Syndicate celebrates their triumph in a campaign against alien aggressors - first destroying several incursion forces, then tracking them to their home base beyond settled human space to a system used as an outpost for raiders and slavers. The marauders were caught unprepared, having never expected a direct attack on their hub. They were blown away, scattered to the winds of space, with entire ships and their crews captured and thousands of human slaves freed. The popularity of the strong-arm Syndicate Chairman Boris Chervenkov soars higher than ever.

A program is set in motion to turn the Vowgates into fortified trade stations. A similar practice is found in Federation space, where all the inner worlds are interconnected by hyperlanes, a priority target of raids from the Stareater Empire in turn. With a budget allocated, the Assembly goes into recess.

The 2260s are now at their end.
Every faction may perform their faction project for the decade that has passed. You roll a 1d100, state your goal - a plan of action that shows what existing assets you use helps - and pray. You can invest your Influence Points into improving the result by a flat number equal to the number of IP invested.
You may do the same thing for Personal Projects, which by definition must be smaller things which a single person can perform.

Those with a position in the Cabinet, at the head of a funded government agency, ministry, directorate, may do an Executive project for the decade.

With their extra funding, the Ministry of R&D can also choose a sphere of technology that will get an automatic breakthrough, the culmination of research over the decade.

This'll be all for tonight. We continue, most likely, Saturday. Active communications can be found in the discord. The google docs has more info now - on the military and administration. Cheers and goodbye.

The purpose of this machine will be to gather/mine the numerous valuable resources a sun's core offers, with the priority being Neutronium from a neutron star using the *deluxe* resource gathered from [Classified].

A number of computerized tests and research will be conducted before finalizing the machine due to the scarce amount and availability.

We will begin by making a macro version, to optimize their software and gain some general experience. The Bots of this first version will be the seize of a small rodent, with their base module the seize of a human. These bots are hexagonaly shaped with six legs, one at each corner. Two legs come with multi purpose rotary tools for drilling, grinding and cutting, two come with lasers for welding, cutting and laser sintering and the last two have nimble manipulators. The base module contains storage and charging for the bots, a 3D printer, all the other tools to maintain and make new ones and a small power generator. The first version will mostly be integrated into space ships and other large machinery to conduct maintenance and repairs in hard to reach spots. With their individual processing power somewhat limited, the bots will form local networks to effectively cooperate. Once their programming and design works effectively we will continue to develop progressively smaller versions, until we have true nanoswarms with base modules the seize of a wrist watch. These will then be integrated into the armor and bot designs of Deston and CSP aswell as government vehicles and ships.

The Hex - bot - ARS development from the part of the Deston Group, has been concentrated on his work tools and on the materials that makes it. Wars can put the forces of humanity in brutal terrains with a great risk of destruction. For this reason it s only natural that we will apply Salsteel tech on the surface plating of the Hex-bot-ARS. This will make it a difficult target to destroy and more resiliant to extreme conditions. Inside the bots will be of a polymore structure for be more light. Instead on the specific of tools, while the ones listed by the CSP are what we have thought of (and are usually used in larger variants by men in work suits), they will need to become retractable for protection inside the bot and detachable in case more specialize tools are needed for certain repairs. The problem with the miniutarization of models upon models after every success, is quite difficult to adress mostly for a main reason : the energy they would need to keep for work. This could be resolve by contacting energy companies or trying some improvised solutions.
Another problem is balancing how much repair materials the bot should storage. This will be important has it will make the difference between how many times the drones needs to take repair material from a nearby storage.
Smaller industrial parts instead are already produced by humanity by many centuries, so in the long run even the ones for the final model would be douable.
The Minerva Research facility should further help this new technological development.

“Good news everyone!
As you sure know, during the era of strife that amongst other things saw the creation of the Radlands of Ji, there were quite a lot of people wanting to escape from it all, some of these with access to more resources than others.
Now, we don’t have all the information quite yet, but it turns out a rather, by our standards, primitive vessel was launched from some nation in the Asiatic area, their plan to cross the gulf of space the slow way, seeking freedom from persecution and such.
This vessel, by name of New Kowloon, was believed to have been lost. Fortunately, it turns out we were wrong.

You see, their plan was that their ship would be self-sufficient, solar panels providing them with power and plants with oxygen and food as they spent hundreds of years riding the space winds, their descendants to colonize the frontier. But as the ship was filled to the limit with refugees and some of these were triads that instigated a mutiny and… Well, it’s a miracle that the hulk is still in one piece.
It’s fascinating really, tens, if not hundreds of thousands of people stuffed in together in a ramshackle wreck, every part of it cannibalized and recycled a hundred times. For example the engines are entirely gone, spare parts for life support systems.
And had it not been accidentally discovered by some college spacejocks joyriding it would have continued to drift out into the great nothing.
The youths reported it to their local Shadowian branch, and the Order generously volunteered to pay for the rescue operation.
It has taken several years of gentle towing, but we’re almost there. At this very moment the engineers in the service of the Divine Shadow have assured me that they’re guiding the hulk into a steady orbit around the planet of Dagda, the chances of it horribly crashing into the planet and killing everyone laughably small.”

Much is spent on the projects - establishing secret outposts on the frontier, in uninhabited system. Automated systems were attempted at first, but reliability issues forced you to switch to manned outposts, which helps with technical issues, but requires a degree of constant supply. Some in the Agency faintly voice concern over the practicality of these outposts, but they are operational nevertheless. Within the Eterani Syndicate there are also murmurs of discontent against the Leader, who some believe has lost sight of the organisation's purpose, becoming so absorbed in secretive government work that the plight of the working man no longer concerns them.

Making a bold choice, Juliet Vow, after a month of absence from the public eye, appears once more in a stunning display - having undergone an expensive modern cybernetic procedure, transferring her brain to a completely new body. Its appearance is human, indistinguishable at a longer distance from her own natural look decades ago. Whilst cybernetic enchantments are not too uncommon nowadays, they are still mostly in the form of prosthetic limbs or subtle internal changes, be they lungs, eyes or even a heart. Full cybernetic bodies and more overt modifications in general have been both expensive and somewhat distasteful in the public eye across most of human space, as the memory of the cybernetic rabies of the early 2100s still haunts the collective consciousness. With her choice and new appearance, Juliet Vow has become a symbol for movement of people supporting greater cyber augmentation - a culture some call "Cyber Punks".

The Council and the Group worked parallel to each other in a mixture of competition and cooperation. The basic concept that the CSP came up with did result in a working prototype soon enough - a mansized bot with tools for welding, drilling, grinding, gutting, sintering and manipulating. The second version shrunk the size down to that of a small mammal whilst retaining all functionality. The problem with these models remained, as the Deston Group foresaw, in resource and energy management. Thus, the Group turned to seeking outside help and, now years into the project's development cycle, the missing parts were finally here. A new Space-XL design of nuclear fusion power cells were adapted to the size and function of the Hex-bots, with the smallest cells being able to fit into a bot the size of a human head. Anything smaller than that has to be charged from a power network, whilst a bot with fusion cells in reserve storage can cycle them in without requiring any outside input, giving it a very long potential lifespan.
With power resolved as an issue, resources become a limitation only in scope. Larger Hexbots can be outfitted with 3-D printers that allow them to create small items - sheets of metal, ammunition, replaceable parts, tools and so on. Small-midsized Hexbots can use miniprinters to provide them with construction material for repairs and building on the spot.

The development of these effective utility droids nets CSP +6 and Deston +14 IP.

On the matter of printing, the Quantum printer protoype is now operational and, after trial and error runs, has managed to safely disassemble that glass of water into composite particles without creating any space-time distortions as some feared it would. A great step ahead for science!

Speaking of which, the R&D department has allowed for the development of more reliable plasma thruster engines that have overcome the issues of such designs in the past, allowing for greater speed and maneuverability than current ion thruster engines can. This does come at a somewhat higher cost in power, which may put outdated reactors and power networks to the test if abused.

Prof spends time among the Migrant Fleet - only on one occasion was that in a physical sense, though, when they first visited the ships and began talking to priests. Receiving respect, CeSS was granted access to their virtual space. In it CeSS is able to see a glimpse of the future, perhaps - human and machine minds almost in symbiosis, understanding each other at rapid speeds, sharing information with ease. What's more amazing, however, is the sharing of feelings which the most learned priests are able to perform, managing to translate data into something transcending numbers, something that makes the guest AI feel more human, for lack of better words.
Being recognized as a kind of kami by the priests, CeSS is given gifts in the form of a man-machine interface used for the transplantation of a human brain into an artificial body or computer system. The knowledge on replicating this technology is also provided, along with a small amount of the rare metals needed.

Selestine Oribtal Works launches, now the largest industrial facility in the nation. With ships no longer needing to necessarily drop to the surface of the planet and seek out a starport there, logistics are greatly improved, as entry and exit into a planetary atmosphere can be skipped. The shipyards have the capacity to build the largest known vessels and get to work on commercial and military designs quickly, including orders placed by the Pavonid Union for new warships. The Gallagher-Volk Military-Industrial Complex remains the prime power in the nation by the accounts of many analysts. (IP+15)
This great new asset to the company was but one reason for toasts to be raised on Dagda. A great private event was being held on the 20th of December, 2269, the joining of two great communities, two great families and two beautiful young individuals.
Tagara laughed heartily, twirling around to make a display of colors with the edges of her long dress. Mister Ashi let a cautious smile creep up his face as he surveyed the tables of guests and gave silent critique to the subtleties of the catering service. It was a big day for his daughter and family. A young girl, some cousin of the groom most likely, was trying to chat with the bride's mother, asking her questions about her hair and if they had any cool mechs in their family.
"My papa makes wobots. I like them a lot, lot, lot, but I want to see other kinds of wobots too!"

Union, several drinks in at this point, was close enough to overhear and himself burst into laughter. It was a wonderful day, even as inebriated as he was physically now, he felt good that he was free from all the shackles on his soul, all thanks to the true love of his life. His blurry vision sought her out among the crowd, as he feels strange shakes in his legs. His vision meets the floor, his nose crunching nastily, before deafening noise fills his ears.In the haze he could hear screams. Something fell on top of him.It all went black.

News reports show gruesome images. A banquet hall filled with dozens of corpses, cluttered with rubble. The anchor reads out the names of the casualties of the attack - all seven members of the Ashi magnate family present, four servants and one member of the Gallagher family - a young girl.

Union wakes, slowly getting his bearings. The date on a nearby screen brings him dissapointment. It's three days after Christmas, but he can't remember getting any presents. Did he really sleep through it all? Wasn't something else missing too, something closer? Surveying his own body, at first he was horrified at the reduced number of limbs. Soon after, other memories came back to him. Something, somebody - far more valuable than his flesh - was missing.

Executive (Marshall) project results:

The program is successful in raising the quality of the soldiers in the army and marine corps. New training methods are established, allowing soldiers to gain experience in more varied environments and in using different equipment. Éspirit de corps is established among these professionals and the ratio of officers and NCOs is increased, establishing a much-needed core of leaders for what remains - the Solar Marshall can not raise new regiments on his own command and thus the bulk of the reform will have to get approval from the Assembly:

Proposal to the federal government for composition of army regiments and size

From now on the army will be reorganized and expanded.
A regiment will be made of 4 parts, this are:

Core (Other than usual infantry, the Core will have even some infantry groups with specialization : scouts, heavy infantry, medics, engineers and weapons specialists. As well support vehicles and robotic units) :
- 10000 men
- 3000 light bots 1000 heavy bots. 50 packs of small air drones (30 drones in each group).
- 30 ********* Support Vehicle groups (10 each)

Armour
- 20 Homesteader APC groups (10 each)
- 20 ********* battle tank groups (10 each)
- 30 ********* light mech groups (10 each)
- 5 ******* heavy tank groups (5 each)

Artillery
- 10 ********** Artillery groups (5 each)

- 10 wings of Red Earls (10 each)
- 5 wings of Black Princes (5 each)

(****** means a proposal for native military vehicles in data banks that will be given by the Solar Marshall during early 2270 to the federal government [i will be posting them next civ turn. I have written a native vehicle for each ***. That is 6 vehicle types in total. When I post them it should be more understandable what I mean. I didn't place their names yet because they need to be made first. And I will post them in the following civ turn. This means that only right now, you can't calculate their final cost, since you don't have vehicle stats. I can't post an army reform and new vehicles for the EFS military at the same time. So the vehicles will come with the next civ turn. At that point with vehicle stats on your hands you can calculate the whole cost. Of course the turn needs to pass first.]. Vehicle crews will use simulators for now until they receive their vehicles)

The current 10 colonial infantry regiments will be remade in army regiments, with the federal government approval. The Solar Marshall also requests the creation of 10 other army regiments if possible.
The Solar Marshall advises the federal government to also address the marines, they too need their regiment size to be enlarged, and improvements on their fighting doctrine and composition.
And perhaps even the creation of 5 other marines regiments.

Utilizing Kalornsen-patented technologies in combination with the most modern in gene therapy and bioengineering to be found in corporate space, the feat of the decade can be summed in short : The Defeat of Cancer.

Launching from Earth in 2147 the massive city-ship New Kowloon was one of several attempts at extrasolar colonization ever conducted. Entering hyperspace in July of that year, no further contact would be made with it and it was presumed lost to the hazards of early space exploration. That was not the case. Distress signals began to beam out in February of 2168 from the distant edges of the Lugus system. Engineering ships paid by the Order of the Divine Shadow found and towed the ship into the system, eventually putting it in orbit around the planet Dagda as a large satellite. Continued contact with Kowloon could only be made through rudimentary light signals in Morse, however, as the station experienced a failure in its comm systems. Thus we know very little about what is going on inside of this hulking mass of metal and machine parts, now orbiting one of our core planets.

MATTERS TO BE RESOLVED BEFORE THE NEXT SESSION

1.Review the Solar Marshall's proposal here >>4419746
if enough support is gathered for it, it will pass through. Otherwise it will have to be made into a turn action, including if you wish to modify elements of it as what has been prepared is a specific plan and program and changing it isn't free.

2.Elections for executive positions - the positions in the executive branch of the government are as follow:
Spacefleet Admiral
Solar Marshall
ESIA Director
Minister of R&D
Minister of Culture
Migration Director

All current holders are at the end of their 10-year term.
If you wish to fill one of these positions, put yourself(A character) forward as a candidate. Present a bio of some sort, why you think you're fitting for the position and what your agenda is.
You may invest IP into securing NPC support from members of the National Assembly - 5 IP per vote.
Naturally, you will mostly be seeking support from the other player factions for your candidacy. To support someone's candidacy link to their post and proclaim your support for them assuming the stated post.

3.Assembly Member Howard Aquinas has put forward a proposal that the term of executive positions be reduced to 5 years. - do you support this proposal?

>>4419771
Putting forward my character as a candidate for ESIA Director.

Velichko is a senior ESIA agent, specializing in threat assessment and counter-terrorism. Born to a Syndicate family, he was first a miner, but later on decided to join the police force of Selestine. From there, he was scouted as a promising candidate for ESIA's counter-terror training programme. Eventually, through distinguished service he became one of the most trusted advisors to the current Director of ESIA and with the current term coming to an end, a fitting candidate to enter the election for Director. He is also well known among his colleagues as being extremely honest and despising any and all forms of deception, which many considered to be an odd trait for someone working for an agency like ESIA.

Chief among his promises is for ESIA to take a more active approach to tackling both foreign and domestic threats. In his own words "The recent Ashi family massacre has shown us that our terror prevention measures are sorely lacking, something I believe is a result from the soft approach ESIA has been taking towards national security so far. It is my every intention to do everything possible to ensure no such tragedy is repeated again. However, make no mistake, I have absolutely no intention of repeating the mistakes of the past. There will be no witch hunts, no spying on our own citizens and no attempts to circumvent proper legal procedures."

>>4419771
>>4419746
We believe the Marshall's proposal to be in order and agree to see it passed.

Arthur Jones will once again run for the Minister of R&D Position, pointing out that the breakthroughs they've made in subatomic manipulation have the potential to usher in a second industrial revolution! Though significantly older than when he started, Jones has vowed to continue working until he is no longer able.

We see no reason for executive positions to be shortened to a term of 5 years, the system has worked fine as is.

In regard to what he has done, so far the military has changed and received several improvments. Javier wants to continue on this road and will make sure it happens. The current results can confirm this the overall positive change.

There are many points that he wish to adress and a second mandate would ensure that, they are hopefully completed if they are passed in the national assembly. The main interests are :

- A Militia Reform
- Ensure that the EFS military forces, receive their native vehicles (to be made)
- Ensure that the EFS military forces, receive their native weapons (to be made)
- Additional defenses and structures for help defense of our systems
- Additional aid to police/sheriffs and the anti terrorism section
- An honor guard and special forces
3 No, the executive positions receive already a smaller amount of finances having their years reduced would penalize their executive projects.

Javier like Assembly Member Howard Aquinas want to put an additional proposal as well, but this in regard to new ministries and the one of migration. If it pass new ministries would be available and will need to be decided now.

Proposal about the Ministries :
Creation of the Ministry of Diplomacy, the one of Infrastructure, the one of Health, and the passing of the Ministry of Migration in a new reorganized sub administration without a ministry.

Ministry of Diplomacy

Do to the nation not needing it before, diplomacy attempts has often being done by the the whole of the ministries and in some occasion by the one of culture. With the creation of the Ministry of Diplomacy, we will have a professional organ of the state that will work on the relations between our current allies and the possibility of creating new ones. As well has mitigating bad relations if is necessary and so on. Ministry diplomatic missions will need to be approved first by the federal government (while the head of this part of the state will work for us, we preferably need to avoid getting to in touch with rivals or enemies of states we have already good relations and even alliances)

But other ministries doing collaboration with their counterparts of other star nations have to be approved by the Ministry of Diplomacy. See here = (example : cultural exchange between two nations. That means the M.culture needs to ask it first to the M.diplomacy . The M.diplomacy see if there could be' possible problems with it [for us and that star nation], and then it will give approval or denial after considerations and debating are done.)

Ministry of Infrastructure This ministry is made for develop, enlarge and improve the infrastructure of our nation. It will be interested in economical, industrial and civilian matters. It will ensure that each of our planets grows further and better , and development raises across all of the EFS.
Ministry of Health The purpose of this ministry is self explanatory. It will act for the improvment and innovation of medical human treatments while also ensuring great standards for our citizenry across the EFS.

Cont last part

>>4419877 Ministry of Health
The purpose of this ministry is self explanatory. It will act for the improvment and innovation of medical human treatments while also ensuring great standards for our citizenry across the EFS.


Migration sub - administration

The Migration sub - administration will do essentially the same role has the past and receiving the same amount of funding, but without a minister in it. It will concentrate on attracting more settlers to the EFS space, as well balancing it when is needed.
(each of this ministry receives is new large building in Erat city, same for the migration sub administration. They also receive smaller buildings across our planets and settlements. The large building of the Ex ministry of migration in Erat city will be repurposed to administrative purposes)

Abstaining from voting on this issue, love for the old colonial forces clouding my judgement.

Brother Shinichi Mechahawa of the Divine Shadow is officially running for the office of Migration Director.
He is widely respected within the order as a man of integrity, as someone who cares deeply and truthfully for his comrades and who would willingly suffer both pain and humiliation for the sake of others.
He also served in the recent war, his fellow veterans describing him as a hard sonofabitch that would care nothing for pain nor exhaustion. In fact he was like a machine. A tough attitude that will serve him well in politics.
All that being said, he not an entirely uncontroversial choice, several in the inner circles muttering about there being something off about him, not being entirely able to put their finger on it. It is true that as a stocky man with a rather broad face brother Mechahawa is not a favourite in any beauty contest to say the least. But that is of little relevance to his suitability to represent the Shadow, undignified gossip at the most.

An older gentlemen by the name of Gibson Vow is the younger brother of Juliet Vow, head researcher and co-owner of Kayub Eterani Corp.
Gibson Vow will run for Minister of R&D, he will begin by stating the companies breakthrough invention of the Vowgate and how it made a great impact not only within the nation, but outside of it as well.

A pre-recorded holographic video is played, the video starting off with Gibson Vow walking into view.
"Hello, I would like you all to to consider me as your new head of R&D for one reason only, to advance our great prosperous nation to even greater heights we have yet began to even consider. Let me explain further, with the research we have been conducting over the past decade my team and I have discovered remnants of a even greater alien civilization that currently exceeds from those we have recently encountered. We have concluded that they have had superior means of travel and have had technology of harvesting a rare resource that can make another breakthrough to our thriving nation. Instead of telling you more, let me show you a small, unpolished display of the said resource."

The video cuts into Gallagher-Volk's space hanger. The lights simultaneously turn on and displays a small advanced frigate.

"What you're seeing here is a space craft made out of a substance that far out classes any other ship we have in our disposal. With tests and simulations you can see on your own time, you can see that most weapons can't even make a dent to this small craft, plus it can withstand a large amount of heat to the point of being able to fly near a star.

Our mission is to discover more of the now extinct advanced civilization, create a device that can harvest energy from a star, a machine to find and harvest more of this rare resource, and to advance our travelling capabilities."

You have succeeded in your goal of miniaturizing SAKURA NET uplinks, creating a variant that requires only a degree of physical connection to the user for them to be able to manipulate equipment as an extention of themselves.

Now, Doctor Newman, that odd ball has been having a bit of a wild ride. Finding nothing easily available in the open for his task, he sought out the black market wherein he acquired what was advertised as a preserved set of organs from "Some sort of alien". These organs were indeed not human and thus the work began. Samples were taken and experiments in combining this alien matter with SAKURA NET conducted. Eventually seeing something shaping up, Newman hooked himself up to try and communicate with the alien entity - he found himself rather overwhelmed with strange sensations, odd colors and sounds, speech in an unfamiliar language. The network eventually degraded, the bridging of two unfamiliar, incompatible organisms being too much. Newman, after a week in a hospital, eventually came to his senses - mostly. He still hears and sees things, though he can not quite decipher the meaning on his own.

These past efforts were more ad hoc, being arranged on the spur of the moment. With the creation of the foundation the Calibas family hopes to make it easier for them to promote and aid in the development of industry, innovating of new technologies and ideas, and progressing colonization of the Free states planets.
Using philosophical ideas conceived by Delta Pavonis the foundation will start its operations in Etar city and then branch outward in its support once a strong enough base has been built up.

things to invest in will be:
-Resource gathering locations for harder to locate matierals. IE anything thats not raw minerals
-Establishment of new settlements on prime locations; Geography, fertile land, planetary location, prime real estate.
-Capital source for start ups investments, projects, and infrastructure
-Migratory fleet movements to help relocate colonists from high congestion areas to locations for the foundation

Personal project: the clabias family has started but up Uninhabited acres of Land outside the capital city for the purposes of building a new family estate in terrafomed Selestine environment.

A hint of unease hangs in the network. To political observers, recent elections, appointments and discussions reveal a degree of weakness in the status quo of the EFS, which has otherwise been known to maintain a relatively high degree of political stability across the years.

The military reform plan did not find enough approval in the Assembly - and neither did the proposal to shorten executive mandates.

Of concern to the public is also the appearance of the hulking station of Space Kowloon above Dagda.

The Followers of the Divine Shadow, (with some modest economic support from the state), will take charge of the kowloon integration project.
This including sending in exploration crews with ambassadors, delivering emergency relief, offering programs intended to give a gentle introduction to the world of the future and carrying out much needed repairs & maintenance.

Also, launch a galaxy-wide manhunt for the terrorists that attacked the Gallagher wedding.

The space derelict known as New Kowloon is still something of Ann enigma to us right now. Our first step should be to establish a foothold on the station to admins get aid and keep order.
I propose we set up a task force to treat with the stations leadership.

Army and Dagda militia is present and active for any problems. Exercise caution and use neutral grounds for talking.

Both the public in the Lugus system and members of the Assembly appear to show a great interest in New Kowloon. The ship-turned station is still a mystery to all outside it. Already, dozens of theories about what's inside are swirling across the networks. One thing is certain - someone's going to have to go in there to see what's happening.

How would you like to tackle this problem?

A.Send marines in with engineers and other specialists, let them make an assessment of the situation at hand and then send a report to the government.
B.Send in observers, specialists and military with a direct streaming link to report live (Exploration mission in this thread)
C.Send in a mixed force, have it report live but only to a government task-force. Whatever information comes out must be controlled (Exploration mission in the discord server's event room).

Proposal for specifications on how this exploration will proceed :

- Robots and drones both civilian and military are send too.

- Part of the fleet will be around the station at an acceptable distance without risks. All of them ready.

- Dagda defenses are all active. EFS military here is ready. EFS military in other systems remains in contact and ready to prepare.

- Scientific, medical and technical teams are also send. Not necessaraly immediatly inside but near and ready.

- We will put the ship - station in the space of the Lugus system. For the moment not leaving it in Dagda orbit.

- Exercise max caution and ensure our advance secures and keeps control, as well cleaning, fixing and creation of a few defense of the rooms/tunnels we walk in.

- All personal send is well protected, monitored, secured and trained.

- Before we enter in any room or approach it (and even when we are inside), we will do numerous scans of several types and see if is possible to access in technical and informatic parts of the ship-station from outside. This will give us additional info, data and maybe the map of the ship-station.

- Outside observation and study of the ship station will begin immediatly.

- Any information and data public about the ship-station when it was build and it s travel data send back to humanity, as well interactions will be searched and study.

- Personal send will have a proper briefing of data collected as well all the info we have on the ship station

- interrogations of the crews that have bring it here will begin immediatly, any data correlated to the ship-station that they have will be asked for the state use for this exploration.

- Any human found inside will be put in a well built/secured near small/medium size space platform build for this occasion. It will have all they need and ensure we can heal them and so on (if needed). Human contact will be minimal and they will be monitored in the rooms they are placed for now. Lethality needs to be established first though.

- If aliens, we need to establish lethality immediatly.

- If dangers are found, after quickly understanding their lethality we will avoid any risk for our personal. Plans for deal with them will be made and then we can try them.
