Roleplay

The reliquary system of Thuringia – a name featured in the most infamous whispers of Rheinland’s imperial history, and, to only the most adamant conspiracy theorists, the horrors of Rheinland present. The system remains no mystery to the Unioner movement, who once, with the blessing of the Empire, crewed, maintained and constructed the various massive shipyard projects and byzantine excavations throughout the abandoned system. In the Manhattan Summer of 825, a host of Unioner vessels traverse the Hamburg jump hole into Thuringia proper, lured by the promise of Imperial vaults, archives, and, most tantalising to the shipyard Unions; virgin components from the remains of the Rheinish naval reserve. Timing their approach to slip between MND patrols, the Unioners successfully enter the orbit of planet Erfurt, regrouping their supplies before making the final approach to the ancient Salzungraben fleet graveyard. However the best laid plans of Men and Syndicates are prone to becoming undone when placed under alien subversion. Upon Unioner insertion into Erfurt's high orbit, Unknown military spacecraft pour out of the Salzungraben; a mishmashed mixture of hulls and design architectures, some completely unfamiliar to the Union. The BDM, careful to keep the present status of the Valhalla complex anonymous within Thuringia, views the Unioner host as a threat to domestic security and the shadowy operations of the agency in orbit of the Imperial palace planet; Weimar. The situation descends into an escalating battle, both sides keen to harvest the technological remains of their enigmatic adversaries amidst the ossuary of dead starships and dead empire from which Thuringia is comprised. Yet the clash does not go unnoticed by the residents of Valhalla... Another legend to add to the storied system's debris fields of blood and dust.

Optional Bonus - Needs admin approval:

BONUS: The crippled husk of a Rheinland battleship drifts within the centre of Sector beta Four, having drifted from the Salzungraben on its long orbit around the Thuringia star, previously undetectable to either the BDM's observation satellites or the salvage parties of the Union. Mauled beyond repair, the vessel nevertheless contains the prospect intact historical artefacts from the Imperial era, perhaps abandoned technological treasures, or navigational archives from when Sirius's jumphole network had very different alignments. Opening the vessel's ancient airlocks will take time and precision, which only the victorious side in this great clash will be able to achieve. Event rewards to be decided by the admins. Loot: Admin discretion. Location: 4B, Middle. Hitpoints: Indestructible. Weapons: N/A. IFF: True Neutral. Will not turn hostile when shot. Docking: Disabled till two teams are destroyed. Persistance: Will not persist after the event.

"To swing one hammer, with the force of many, is to topple giants. This is what the Kaiser knew, the Socialists have always known, but the Federalists,in their anaemic compromise between wealth and their callousness, forget."

Rules

The BDM are encouraged not to use too many Bergelmirs, primarily because they're better than VHFs for mixed composition fights as they're great against lighter caps and fighters whilst UN has no equivalently good SNAC bomber. The Unioners cannot use full-pulse Arbeiters, on account of how annoying they are. "Fighters/Bombers" does not include freighters. The purpose is not to win or lose, but to enjoy ourselves. The Wilde side are expected to balance the PVP by engaging the winning side if either UN or BDM start anhillating the other team. That's why they're given 2 Scorpions. Contextually, Wilde is trying to make sure neither side survive the encounter. Indies are allowed to Join on both sides. Non-Rheinland infected can join – Rheinland, Civilian, or border worlds civilian ships are preferred for the Infected. Kusari ships would look contextually strange, for example. No NEMPing. Admin protection is requested to prevent foul play. Have fun!

// Despite this event possibly having a POB, I decided not to post it as an official event as it doesn't really effect any lore or change the storyline. It's a fun PVP event based around the RP of the system, and should not be considered an OFL only event. Indies are extremely welcome and will be needed to fill slots.

Mark me down for a Wilde gunboat slot, I guess. Can switch to fighter if necessary.

Roger. One gunboat slot filled.

If there's enough wilde players to make the team bigger, I'll play around with it.
