So some of you may recall when we were still apart of the Commonwealth, that there was a RP that we had called Star Odyssey. Now while it was ultimately failing in its initial phase and there was work being done to reformat and then relaunch it before the CoR basically collapsed in on itself, I would like to take the format that we had, the history, the ideas and merge them on top of the Future Tech RP. So Robbafett and I will begin migrating over a bunch of the history and timelines, etc to this forum and begin sorting out how things can work. Likely we will use some of the existing stuff posted by Luca which provide clearly defined rules and regulations, and mix in a little of our normal Modern RP items to make the transition a smooth and seamless one. Optimization is key, as we work to revitalize Future Tech RP for real this time. I hope we can count on your support and the support from the Ministry. So what do we need? From the Ministry: Can we have a sub-forum added called Galactipedia. Everything else in FT should be moved into the Galactic Archive so we can remove the old topics to make things less confusing, We can always unbox topics at a later time. These should still be accessible of course. From everyone else: We will need a concept design for a map that is functional and allows for expansions, similar to how Modern RP does it. We also need a new name instead of Star Odyssey as we rebrand and evolve. |

As for the Tech Tree, King PM your ideas and we can collaborate on a very basic Tech Tree to present as a proposal. I'm thinking these techs are approved for use, and we can allocate certain techs to certain levels of the space nations. i.e. Luca had you pick if you were early colonial, space fairing, etc and thus your technologies would be limited, but everything must be always fair and fun.
We may just scrap the Tier thing, it did get kind of problematic with connectivity. Mostly when people RP their single character as their nation/factions head of state, which was not the point and made it difficult.
Poor Mr Lines. Perhaps a reform would be necessary. I personally would suggest that both FT and Fantasia be considered as sub-Ministries or Departments if you would. With their own heads and/or staff that run those RPs, e.g. maintain the forums, regulations, etc. The RP Ministers for both Nysa and Caprecia act as the final say, and oversee everything RP related I suppose. I suggest having it this way to minimize the strain and amount of work imposed on the existing Ministry. Edited by Mestra, Jan 23 2014, 01:43 AM.

Update: King and I have started a tech tree, so we'll see how that goes. Robba and I guess King will evaluate the existing timeline from SO and see what we can keep, what needs to be kept and whats scrap. I would like to know who is inclined to keep their existing FT factbook/race/nation as we move forward. I will read through those specified factbooks and see what we can do, my goal is to read them or at least skim through them all to make the best effort to keep them usable. |

Actually, yeah. I was thinking it over last night and figured changing "Region" to "Department", and adding a bit where RP Ministers fashion the departments and their distribution between 'emselves. Also thinking a bit along the lines of "and in the Society as a whole" might be good, but I'll need to write it not-on-my-phone to mull over it. In either case, it would have the effect of allowing the Ministry to exercise regulation over all RP, including FT and Fantasia, which still preserving duties for the individual Ministers and not undermining the separation of Role Play Ministers in the first place. It would also be a big of preempt. I mentioned elsewhere that, if we ever get another member-region, it'd be best to set their Minister up as Lord and Master of a dedicated FT or Fantasia program, partially to avoid using "need duties!" as a legitimization for new land, while again preserving current regional integrity. Of course, there is room for conflict between OPs and Ministers, but I think that's discussion best held while it's actually pressing. In the meantime, we're likely liable to continue the current system where OP is deity-in-chief of his world (ideally, a Minister would be over their shoulder making sure they're not asshats about things, because that's deconstructive to our region's purposes; I guess that's a plausible role for the future FT/FAN Minister). |

The only race I care about is The Naoti, which I may slightly rework depending on what backstory you decide upon. |

I'm not sure if I want to keep the Marosine Conglomerate, I feel more like playing a human Star Kingdom. |

Interesting to say the least. What exactly would the course of action be for the present time? The main question is as we progress how do we handle FT?
I'll likely set up a richer back story soon, and work on then post it and ask you all for comments, recommendations etc. |

Aye, a detailed backstory would be nice to have before deciding the plausibility the Marosine |

I remember that... "Thinks back wistfully" Hey Mestra, I saw a "swarm war" on the timeline, I was wondering what's the history behind that? |

In SO the swarm war occurred after my two sub-factions met each other and began trading. The group encountered the alien species which we termed the Maugwa. A war broke out called the Swarm Wars which lasted between 75 to 200 years, not sure what the timeline has exactly. During the war, the UFSC (United Federal Space Command) was formed between my sub-factions (one alien, one human) to fight the Maugwa. In the middle of the war, a large portion of the UFSC fleet was lost behind enemy lines and this fleet eventually joined with some native populations to eventually become another Faction called the Alliance (which was Robba's). By the end of the war the United Trade Federation was formed and it had access not only to the vast wealth of planets the Maugwa had once had, but also to undipsuted claim over a vast region of space. Star drives became in use after the war for the great gates, which the UTF began to build and to connect its vast territory. There wasn't much else during the war exactly, Robba and I were working on it at one point before SO died off. |

Sad day that it died flo... Mestra: would it be possible for me to play the Maugwa? Beforehand I had a insectoid race that I was wanting to play. |
