Omniverse One

As to the USS political system, I did briefly speculate on MSN that such a cyberdemocratic system is vulnerable to sudden memes and fashions driving people to turn out and vote for crazy things in numbers that completely overwhelm the usual bunch of hardcore electors, upsetting the political proces...

Yeah, that's much more sane than what was originally thought.

Maybe their terminology for their 'nations' won't be 'Republics' or 'Empire' or whatnot, but just 'People'. So one sub-faction can be the "Tooramal People" and another can be the so-and-so People. The Zigonian terminology for 'state' is probably more like 'A bunch of dudes and dudettes li...

Some fusion of 1 and 2 is ideal, depending on the circumstances.

Yeah, I like this design a lot more than the others.

I also loved the colorful diversity of the USS in SDNW4, and seeing SotS reborn would be a great joy. The idea of a more nuanced and yet fantastical version of SotS, however, is what intrigues me the most, as it has the potential for some great world building.

As to why it's armed so, the edges of known space after the colonisation of the Solar system but before the construction of wormhole networks, although lacking in hostile alien empires in the typical sense, were nonetheless wild and remote. Such a vessel may be the only significant armed force with...

For the cost of a minimal loss of volume, I suppose one could have resupply corridors running through the fuel tanks to the turrets? I guess you could do that if you really wanted to, though it seems rather convoluted to me. The Great Solar War was a conflict occurring no earlier than the 23rd cent...

Wouldn't the guns mounted on the fuel tanks be really awkward to reload what with all the fuel getting in the way? As for the infantry load out, I'm assuming that uploading your soldiers into giant, synthetic killbots isn't the popular thing to do, hence the integration between the soldier and armor...

Just so you know, and don't take this offensively, but in the past(?) we had a member who kept making the same world-building premise over and over and over again. It would either be something with the Byzantium, the Kaiser's Reich or anything with GERMANIANS!, and it would usually include Warhamme...

Yup, this is definitely your shtick, and its fantastical nature works really well. I'm especially interested in the worldbuilding, though the story itself would be a good read as well.

Another one of our brothers returns, and he's engaged! Congratulations, Speaker!

Hey! I haven't heard anything from you in ages. It's good to see you back in the swing of things. As for me, I've felt my creative juices collecting once more, which have been begging me to apply them to my newest project. Of course, I should have applied them to my SecSan instead...

Well, we're really just waiting for the turn to be posted. Things will probably pick up after that.

Besides the usual clothes, chocolates, and misc. stuff?

Yeah, so like I explained to a certain someone, real life events, mostly job hunting, interviews, and a lot of unexpected stuff, I won't have my SecSan ready for today. However, I will almost assuredly have it ready by New Years or earlier! Even if it kills me...

Wait, now I'm totally confused. Does this mean I'm pretty much shit out of luck with regards to playing out my actions?

EDIT: I think I don't actually get to officially jump in yet until Wednesday due to entering mid turn. Never mind.

You know what? Count me in, too. The martian Commonwealth of Tharsis is joining in. Like Siege, though, I could use some help understanding the rules.

Thanks to everyone for the kudos! Took so long to respond because I was briefly without internet access on account of setting up my new computer I got for black friday.

Yeah, a lot of your pictures don't work. Might wanna check that out, Nox. Anyways, I think I've mentioned this before, but your dedication to creating huge verses in terms of scope and time as well as the heavy transhumanism and singularity concepts, is truly commendable, as well as a major influenc...

It's certainly an interesting setting. I would like to see more as to how this pans out.

I may have to appropriate that picture for nefarious purposes...
