And finally, I've finished my marathon of this thread, and I'm slightly disappointed that I'm not jumping in in the middle of a crisis. Anyways, sign me up as a naval officer, one who won't be sitting on earth if possible.

From: Cmrd nothingtoseehere, Deputy of UNCAO To: All UN departments, UN press office Subject: Update:Luna Immigration Due to pressure from Luna politicians and their wish to consolidate, Luna will not be reopening trade and immigration as announced earlier. UNCAO hopes that this miscommunication in the UN has not harmed trade with the Federation. Basically, we reopen Luna for about a week so fed cancels trade, then close Luna again so that all the infrastructure goes to Calliso instead, where it can be used to get Callisto to 25mil pop.

From: Cmrd nothingtoseehere, Deputy of UNCAO To: Ayako Yamamoto, President of Lunar Nation of Tranquillity Subject: Proposal from Cornucopia Recently, Cornucopia has approached us with an offer, to give them a long-term lease on a Lunar crater. This crater would be under administration of Cornucopian administrators, but with oversight from the Lunar national. They would open up this crater to immigration from non-UN nations, but they would be prohibited from militarizing or mining their enclave. In return, they would build and operate terraformers in their enclave until Luna reaches an earth-like atmosphere. The UN approves of this arrangement, but the final decision of course comes down to the Lunar nation. If you reach a decision please contact us and Cornucopia to make sure we are all on the same page Nothingtoseehere fucked around with this message at 20:03 on Jan 23, 2014 |

BwenGun posted:It is an issue. But unfortunately its not an easy one to rectify as there's a limit to how much space is left after the engines, armour, life support, fuel, missile launchers, fire controls and sensors. The easiest one to change in order to get more magazine space is the speed of the ships. Second to that is dropping the number of armour belts. It's also why I prefer the dual ship approach (spotter and shooters) as without the active sensor the smaller ships have a lot more room for magazine space. Similarly dropping the required speed from 5,000 to 4,000 frees up a significant amount of room. The problem with a ship that arlge is that the noly shipyard able to build it would be our large one, which currently is building gibs and will build theri successors next fleet resigner. A Railgun ship however can be much smaller, for example code:

All details on the idea came from Cornucopia, and if you want to follow this up you will have to contact President Calvin Grant for further negotiations and specifics. From:CMDR nothingtoseehere, Deputy Head of UNCAO To: UNCAO Civil Administrators Office Re: Colonial reassignments Firstly, can we clear up the paper reguards Europa 52? Why does it still say Calvin Grant is administraitor? Anyways, please arrange the transfer of Iunnrais to Europa 52 from 702 Alauda, and Jihad_Joe from 121 Hermione to 511 Davida, with occiptallobe taking up duties on 511 Davida instead.

AJ_Impy posted:So, be absorbed, or be confined. Of the two, I'd much rather take a third option. How much time can we stall for? Probably quiet a while, considering the timescales the Mind works on. If we make noises towards joining the community, we can probably get the mind of our backs for a few decades till they notice we are not agreeing, and considering the speed we develop at.

Kommando posted:Alchenar, during your time as UNCAO you did basically nothing and palmed all responsibilities of office onto your subordinates, both nothingtoseehere and Coolguye was acting on fiat and even voting for you since your record of attendance at UNEC decisions is very very poor. Only once you gave up your position this election and chose not to contest it because in your own words you "dont have the time anymore" did you suddenly become active, but only in a deconstructive and disruptive manner. Quick note of clarity, no UNEC votes came up during my time as deputy that I voted on. Alchenar did vote on these. Beyond that I have had no contact with my supposed boss, and Coolguy told me on my takeover to act like UNCAO head unless overruled, which he has not done for any of my decisions. Not that I made many, UNCAO is a low-effort post.

For those wondering how we would sell the joint base idea to the Feds, they have already claimed that the installation is there only for defense against the K2 aliens. As they have recognized our claim to K2, simply inquire into them letting us see the sensor logs, in the interests of the defense of the humanity, and propose adding our own equipment to help increase sensor power and defend humanity. If they stonewall us, I would recommend just relocating to another asteroid, and leaving the COmmunity discussion for later.

The only thing we could be doing on the colony front is building a JP3 gate instead of a JP2 for Fed, something I don't think we should of done, but thats done now and we at least got a decent deal for it. Getting a outpost out on Jamestown will be useful even if we do not further develop the JP3 chain, and we probably want to develop it at some point in the future.

As UNCAO deputy, I have no problem with the conference happening in Goa as long as we have the intel staff to sweep the hell out of everything beforehand. More important is how much information we are going to release to the world and what plan we are going to propose to deal with the MIND. Also, tell Fed that the MIND is two systems away but heading in the wrong direction to reach earth, to make sure they do not panic and do anything rash.

 Unless overruled by Kommando UNCAO votes yes, in the spirit of interstellar cooperation and lack of a good reason to turn this down without looking hostile. UNCAO is in FAVOR. Nothingtoseehere fucked around with this message at 23:18 on May 21, 2014 |

Well, gently caress. 43800km/s suggests that this isn't a ICBM strike by a non-TNE planet on first contact, but if this was a homeworld it would have shipyards in orbit that would have been detected and reported on. Therefore it is a interstellar colony of another TNE-using race? That bodes badly for our chances, and for the validity of the Mind. Regardless, we need a contact team over there asap.

The UNSC (Including UNRL) have raised no objection to the vote, and the Lyell deal has drug on too long already. As long as the message is amended to accept the B deal instead, everything is fine. Stop interfering.

I haven't agreed with the warmongering so far, but some members of the UN seem be forgetting the Mind has done the nearest thing it has to an attack on one of our ships. If we're not now in a state of war, we won't be until they are sitting in Sol. Just because its a weapon we don't have doesn't mean its less of an act of war to use it on our ships.

With the MIND threat high on everyone minds, I would like to present a new design for the next generation of cruisers for the UN, able to fight at the ranges of our Gibratar class monitors whilst speeding round the stars faster than any of our current combat ships, all the while sticking to the project NIKE specifications.

OtherworldlyInvader posted:This seems really solid, but I think I'd suggest the following tweaks to the sensor package: I thought about that, but I oversized the active scanner on purpose, for when we develop better missile tech in the future. It allows us to utilize any advances in missile range we get in the future on the cruisers, meaning they will go obsolete later. If we research small fuel tanks, I can fit 30,000 L more fuel on the top without raising tonnage.

We cannot assume MIND ships will go straight for Sol, as pointed out by Saros the MIND will have to survey the systems before they find the stablized jump gates taking them to Sol. We have time to conduct labyrinth. Also, we really need to go public about aliens soon.

Mister Bates posted:The longer we put it off, the more likely our civilian population is to put us all in stocks when it inevitably does come out anyway and they learn exactly how long we've been keeping it from them. Rip that drat band--aid off. We have a good narrative now. "We have been contacted by an alien power, we tried to discuss how humanity can become a responsible space faring species, they deceived us and attacked us with unknown Psychic abilities, so we defended ourselves." The exact details do not need to be known by the public, only the broad strokes, and enough information to convince the world they are a threat (heavly biased in our favour"

Saros posted:The issue is that the planet isn't exactly a benign environment and everyone would probably freeze to death in short order away from the facilities already set up. On the other hand, they probably won't have to hide for more than a few hours. That's survivable. And that's assuming their scanners are strong enough to discover a makeshift research camp in first place, they are mostly EM scanners and that would be the easiest stuff to hide.
