SWRPF Archive SPACE BATTLES: A Fleet Strategy RPG (v. 2.0)

Introduction:

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away...

It has been 50 years since the destruction of the second Death Star, and the deaths of Emperor Palpatine, and Darth Vader. Since the fall of the Empire, the former Rebel Government, the New Republic, has quickly collapsed. Now the giant conglomerate powers of the Corporate Sector Authority have swept into the vacuum of power, buying most of the known galaxy. To maintain order the Corporate Sector Authority has created a great entertainment division, focused on keeping its citizens under its sway.

That entertainment division has created the highest rated holovision show of all time. That show is known as SPACE BATTLE, and everyday entertains trillions of viewers. The premise is simple, take a space captain, his skeleton crew, and place him in an outdated capital ship, then turn him lose on multiple peers. The winner is the captain of the last ship standing, or the first to eliminate 20 other captains. A captain will be considered out of the game if he has lost his home system, and cannot recapture it after a real-time week, or all his ships are neutralized.

In this time resources are limited, and only a few shipyards remain in operation, and under heavy Corporate Sector guard. Therefore in SPACE BATTLE if a captain wishes to build a great fleet, he must show great skill, using Ship Points (SP) earned in the show to make additions to his fleet. Due to the lower resources demanded by the ships of a half-century ago, the captains on SPACE BATTLE will only be allowed to create older ships. These ships that were once symbols of order, and power are now symbols of chaos.

[u][b]The Game:[/u][/b]

Please realize, his is only a precursor to the far more extensive [i]Civilization-Style[/i] game called [b]Galaxy at War[/b], which is to come. This means there could be a certain amount of fine-tuning throughout the game.

The logic of this game is very simple. The longer you are successful within the game, the bigger your fleet will become.

How you ask, will it grow?

[b]Ship Points:[/b]

The answer is simple. You start with 40 [i]Ship Points[/i], and each of your ships have a different [i]Ship Points[/i] value ranging from 1 SP ? 150 SP, the bigger the ship, more likely it will cost more [i]Ship Points[/i].

[b]Starfighters, unlike the last game, will cost additional SP to be added onto capital ships.[/b]

See the complete list of [i]Ship Prices[/i] below.

It?s completely up to the captain on how you spend your 40 [i]Ship Points[/i], but now you ask how to gain points?

There are a few ways gain [i]Ship Points[/i], lets start with the most basic one:

You can gain [i]Ship Points[/i] by simply destroying opposing captains ships. Each ship has a [i]Destruction Value[/i] (DV), much like it?s [i]Ship Point[/i] Value; near the bottom of this post you will find a list of ship [i]Destruction Values[/i].

You can also gain [i]Ship Points[/i] by keeping your home system free of enemies, and concentrating on production. Production can be increased by the creation of mining facilities inside the home system. Everyday your home system is held will earn you 3 [i]Ship Points[/i]. Additionally all ships in the home system are repaired, the length of time the repairs take is dependant on how extensive the damage is.

Mining facilities carry a creation fee of 25 SP, and increase your production by 2.0x. Layering mining facilities is possible up to a maximum of four, which would increase your production to a multiple of 16.0x. Owning multiple

Also, before I post my other ships, does the above ship count in my SP total?

 

quick question before I make a fleet probably sometime tomorrow do starfighters come as one or as a squadron?

Total SP: 40

I think that's right. Let me know if it isn't and I'll fix it.

 

Kev-Mas_Colcha:

Oops. You went over the limit of 40 SP. You 12 Squadrons of Miy'til Fighters add up to 36 SP alone. This is in addition to the 17 SP of the Golan-III Space Defense Platform. Before you can join, you will have to redo your Fleet.

SuperVader:

The SP's for fighters count an entire squadron of that fighter.

DarthSeti5:

Everything looks fine to me.

Saber_Leader:

You look ready to go.

Everyone:

I'm going away for a few days tonight. I think we will be starting the game by sunday.

Is that okay?

 

Kev-Mas_Colcha:

If we transfer that one Hapes Miy'Til Assault Bomber from the Corellian CR100 Gunship to the Golan-III Space Defense Platform, we're good to go. Only because Corellian CR100 Gunships have no room for Starfighters.

Other then that your ready to go.

 

ooc: I just have one question before I start...do all the ships listed as "colony" ships have the ability to create colonies? And if so, is their any advantage to getting the more expensive ones, excluding the stargo which can make three colonies?

 

New_York_Jedi:

Yes, all the colony ships may create colonies.

The Gallofree Yards Medium Transport, could probably get destroyed by a single TIE Fighter. It needs heavy escort if it runs into any enemy ships.

The Kuat Drive Yards Star Galleon has 10 Light Turbolasers, it still needs escort craft, but could probably handle a squadron of smaller fighters.

The Tagge Industry Shipyards Ltd. Modular Star Hauler has 15 Medium Turbolasers, it still needs escort, but could probably hold off a small capital ship.

 

Ah. Now I understand, thankyou!

Oh, and one other question: I don't believe this mentioned in the rules, but if you conquer/settle a system, does that mean you gain ship points for it?

aie we need more people.

 

Well I seperated my shoulder and this is going to prevent me from typing with two hands for a few days. I know at least one more person will be joining. I don't want to do any major typing with one arm so this should give us sometime to be noticed.

 

OOC: Did you do that during hockey Janson

 

I sure did.

 

Well I think WWE should get this started ehh, JYA or maybe more people

 

Ooh this looks a little interesting, but I do got a quick little question, for the ships where the stats like attack ratings defence so on? do you have a site you draw your information on or somthing like an RPG book?

 

I use Starships of the Galaxy[/b], but there are plenty of websites on the Internet where you could find the same information.

Notice:

We'll be starting up today after I get home from school.
