It was another standard galactic day for Commander Rayden. He woke up and ate his Cryo-O's for Breakfast, had a nice warm shower, then proceeded to walk out the door to his hotel in the Arena system. He quickly walked into his pride and joy, the Lucifer. The Lucifer was a Chimera, with all the best equipment in Sirius, Altair and Inner Core. He flew the ships into space to see if anyone was here to test their luck against him. No one there. This was very strange due to people always claiming to be the best pilot in Sirius. Only a few have beaten the Commander, most others have perished. After this sad sight, he decided to check in on the X-3043 system. He docked with the gate, and was engulfed in a Wormhole almost immediately. After his small inter-system flight, he entered the X-3043 system. However, this system also looked Deserted and abandoned. He decided to investigate, he took his ship to Planet Crossfire, the hub of all Crossfire Activity. There was no one here either. "What the hell?" He walked over to the news Bulletin. "Yep, Custodian theft, Samura Conspiracies, What's this?" There was a picture of a Universal Crisis logo. He examined it. "This reads: WARNING: Nomad fleets have been sighted in the X-3043 system, most believe it is a invasion to re-take the system. All help is needed, and every able pilot needs to assist in this defense." The Commander dropped the Pad as it smashed onto the ground, then he ran full stop to his ships and launched.

His ship smoothly exited the Atmosphere into blinding purple light. Dozen's of Nomad Vessel's lay waiting for the Commander. The Commander's ship was almost ripped to shreds due to these purple fire. The Commander decided it was time to defend himself and his beloved system. He engaged the nearest Nomad Battleship. The Commander's careful precision and the power of his guns hit the Battleship with so much intensity, it took a minute before the Battleship was down. "One down, forty two to go." Just then, as the Commander started hitting the next Battleship, Dozen's of Nomad fighters appeared and begun to engage the Commander. "What a way to go. If only the Dom'Kavosh tried to keep an eye on their pets." The Commander swerved the Lucifer and begun to engage the Hostile Fighters. Six were killed within seconds, then more showed up. "Great." His ship was taking a pounding, but it was still ok. Then, something unbelievable happened. A group of ASF and CSF ships appeared alongside a common Freelancer appeared and began to engage the Fighters and Battleships. The Commander piped up. "Glad to see you here guys, I was afraid all would be lost." Then a voice entered his Cockpit. "Nonsense sir, the Resistance Brigade will always help out the common folk in this system." The Commander smiled. "This is what I like to hear." Soon, all of the Nomad ships were destroyed. A few ASF and CSF ships were destroyed as well, but everyone else survived the Massacre. "What's your status? Over." The Commander piped up again. "In one piece. I would've been worse if you didn't show up." Then the same voice entered my ears. "We are all regrouping at Far Water Shipyard. I advise you head to Aeston Shipyard, they may have some assistance for you there." The Commander thanked him and began to fly to the ASF Shipyard

It was all smooth sailing until he entered that damn Rock Field. Multiple Alien Battleships and Fighters swarmed the area and disrupted the Commander's Engines. He could only just get away using his afterburner's and initial fuel jets. He was so close to the ASF Shipyard when all of a sudden, a Nomad Strike Carrier accompanied by three haunts and several more Battlegroups appeared. They were an annoying infestation you can't get rid off. Thankfully, I stayed hidden, and they went right past, leaving the Strike Carrier only 4k from my position and everything else out of range. I flew off as fast as I could to the Shipyard and docked to discuss the Situation..

Life.. Life happened

Maybe the Jump Hole Malfunctions are functional?

Mercury is a Freelancer, who has been in trouble quite a few times I may add

Quote from Kermit

in saying that yes i have given $$ to some who are really struggling and show some keaness in the mod. quiet a few of them are still there today as long term.

Yeah, thanks for that Kermit

Like Kermit, I have seen many new players come onto our server, only about a half of those who enter are never seen again which is unfortunate. Indeed RP is almost dead to all clans except Smugglers, but that isn't a reason to leave. We still have events, Clan bases, players loyal to this mod.

Quote from SWAT_OP-R8R

Dunno why people prefer discovery but I assume that most new players by default try to join the most active server and so other servers never really get a chance these days.

Disco isn't even that great. I joined Disco for a week to see how it went. I was stuck in a beginner's ship for four days before realising you can reset your character which is no way within RP limits.

(IOC) Iirc correctly has a very small amount of members I think 3. I'm sjre they would appreciate a new member

Well, bounties are at an all time low, but that is because we are nice people There isn't too much fining or taxing, but Smuggle oppurtunities are aalways open and mostIy profitable

God, how much is this now? 10+

This running, or flying was a struggle. My chimera was fast but not fast enough. Their red ships were flying around all over the place and always ended up tailing me. Then I quickly engine turned, looked them square in the cockpits and launched a souffle of missiles at their wings. Then I decided to use my guns too. My gattlings penetrated their hull and ended up destroying a few of their ships. Then I realised a wing of two or more appeared and began applying heat on me. "Time for plan B." Which was just me flying around all over the place. In the endlast, my only choice was to run. I ran further away from Sirius whereupon I entered the Unknown lands. Soon, my ships had emptied fuel tanks and was left drifting in space. There was nothing I could do. I can't save humanity. Then a miracle happened. Due to the Dom'Novosh needing the Nomads no more, they brutally killed them one by one, however a few of them have still survived. I only believed it very recently. I felt a strange unnatural presence on the ship. I turned around and saw something unbelievable. A nomad was staring at me, eye to whatever they see through. I felt relaxed. Like this nomad could save humanity and bring the Novosh to it's knees. However, there is one last thing it needs to do. It needs a viable vessel for the Incubi. Most preferably, a political or genereal leader. It referred to me as it's true vessel. The only one. I clambered over to the Incubi. "I'm ready." And I am sure it said. "Welcome, to the genesis of Humanity." I felt nauseous and god knows what as the Incubi slid down my throat.

I opened my eyes. I was still here. I wasn't moving however. My ability to move has been de-activated. Then, my arm moved, then I started walking. "About time you're awake." Says a familiar voice. "What the hell?" I thought. "Remember? You sold yourself to me to save humanity. I am your savior." I thought about this for a second. "And?" "And what?" Says the voice. "What happens after we win?" There was a short pause, then he resumed. "Either you die, or you're stuck with me forever in your body." "Ah I wish I knew the risks!" The snake replied "The risks for yourself is nothing to the risks of Mankind." I told him in my head to get a move on. "Right then." He skillfilly manoeuvred the ship to some sort of rock using his afterburners. Then he/I docked andthe approached a man. "Slitheria Identitie." Then I replied in some sort of language. "Mandrow xeriar." Then the man smiled. "Hello bonded pair, welcome to our headquarters." It wasn´ much of an HQ. Just an ordinary space station with blue and/or purple goo everywhere. "Please make yourselves comfortable." The man said as he walked off. "Well, shall we?" Says the weird voice. Those things have some humour. I guess this will make the hell ride a lot more easier to endure. After a while, we planned. Apparently my voice, is the leader of this whole operation. We were discussing a lot of major plans to do. Our new plan will involve Nomads and humans working together to ensure the survival of both races.

Good luck, and try have fun (Don't rage quit in front of your senior officer's)

I ban AJ because I realized the forum seems to be empty once again...

My first ever PC game was the Lost Vikings I. After playing this one, my mom got Lost Vikings II and I also got hooked on that. Sort of like an old Arcade type game where you control three dudes, but can only control one at once, and you use them to get past obstacles and monsters, along the way, you can trade away one of your vikings to other guys who can for instance, jump really high, or fire fireballs. You have to guide the three of them from start to exit.

My favourite guy was Olaf. He could block fire for his enemies to quickly rush through, or could block enemy projeciles. He could also use his shield as a hang-glider and raise his shields for his friends to get to higher places, however Baelog the Fierce had a sort of Lightsabre in LV2. Erik is a very fast guy, running faster then any character. Using his speed, you can use him to bash through walls and foes using his helmet. He can also jump the highest out of any character. They have plenty of levels in LV1 and those levels are based in different time periods to defeat their captivator. In LV2, all I can remember is that there are some bad guys you need to kill, and break free your vikings from another captivator,

Hmm, my favorite Card game is Uno, but cards aside..

Jacked

A motorcycle game as you'd think of it, however a bit more extreme.
You start off with a basic bike and a mission. Race three laps around a map and come 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place, it may seem easy to some, but trust me it's not. They can pick up Stan Batons, spiky baseball bats (Like Lucille), Molotov Cocktails and crowbars to try and stun you and take your bike. Of course you can do that to them, but that takes several hours of practise. And that's in the simple missions. The harder missions are gang battles. You are the leader of one gang with four people in your team, and the enemy has five in their team. Your objective is to kill the enemy gang leader without dying yourself. Normally, there is around 3-10 matches in one mission. The next mission explained is the time trial. Naturally, no one can do this in their starter bike, it is impossible, so stealing someone else's bike in the missions before is a good idea. You have to try race three laps in the one map within the current time limit. PREEETY DAMN HARD imho. Last but not least mission is the Catch the Hostile sort of mission. You start out maybe 500m behind some other biker who has to try run three laps without you jacking his bike. This is where the several hours of practise hits off, due to him always having a better and faster bike, (Unless you both have the Superbikes). However he defends himself with whatever he can throw at you. Again very hard.
iirc, you can also grab standard issue pistols to shoot at them and stun them, very hard but good game overall

Netstorm.

In my observations, the Thunder Faction is incredibly OP. Thunder cannons usually hit anything on the offensive and destroys it in a matter of a few shots. A Vander Tower with a Thunder Cannon are probably the most OP combo. Vandar tower able to destroy any Air Offense in a matter of a few seconds, and the Thunder cannon to annihilate anything in it's way (Unless it's a Sun Barricade)

The Sun faction is generically a Neutral faction. Any faction can involve Sun along with them. Sun units are not very strong in fact the Weakest among Wind, Thunder, and Rain, but still has it's perks. For example, a Whirligig base is cheap and spawns a Whirligig: A weak but very effective Air Bomber. A sun cannon, can turn it's cannons into four directions: Left, right, up and down, while other cannons can't. A sun tower isn't as strong as the Thunder Bulwark (Where sun tower has 2000 hp, and the Thunder Bulwark has 5000hp) but is cheap and very useful for last minute defence.

Wind is a very strong enemy and typically very hard to get rid off. The Crossbow, has a low range, but has an area to shoot it's small arrows at. It also shoots at Air Offensive units too. If anything crosses it's path, most will not see it back alive. A devil maker is a very dangerous unit. It produces an uncontrollable mini-tornado and devastates enemy troops. It generally lasts for about 30 seconds before it dissipates. If the Devil Maker isn't destroyed, it will keep spawning these thing's until it's deaths. The Wind tower is another OP unit. It has three vulnerable sides where it is easy to destroy, but it has an invincible side where no matter how hard you can hit it with massive firepower, it will not be destroyed. However vulnerable to air attacks.

The last is the Rain faction. They are generally the weakest of the four main factions. Coming above Sun. The Rain Cannon has a fast refire rate, shooting about three Ice Crystal shards per second, but takes four seconds to reload. The Ice Tower is generally weak, but is never destroyed. Instead, when weakened, it breaks then takes a couple of seconds to grow back to it's original state. The Cloud Floater is a well popular transport unit as it is a strong air transport, and can endure heavy hits, especially from Vander towers. The Crystal Crab aren't too well used. Only normally used when the enemy priest is incapacitated on a bridge. They also fetch Geyser crystals like every other Transport. The Man'o'war pool is very dangerous. Upon building this pool, a Man'o'war appears and unleashes electric madness upon your foes from above (As long as they are in range ofc). They generally take some effort to kill. A vander tower is not enough to kill the Man'o'war without causing Devastating Damage, but three Vander Tower's should do it.

Would write up some more info, but figured this was enough already lol

I ban Ajay because WCII? In Virtual Reality

I ban Ajay because you do mean VR as in Virtual Reality??

I ban Michael because, oh well, your loss

Part 3

After docking in the massive Annihilator Vessel, A Daam"Kavosh drone led me to a meeting area inside. The Interior in this place was very unsettling. The walls seemed to be moving in the same rhythm as a heartbeat.. sort of. Anyway, I was walking side by side with the Drone when he speaks to me in Galactic English. "So Human, what's a great plan?" I looked at the Drone with a surprised face. "You mean.. you don't have a plan?" "Exactly. Why else would I ask you?" I started to think for a minute. Why would the most powerful beings in this Galaxy not know what to do? I was sure they had plenty of experience being Dominators of the Galaxy. Anyway I tried to think up of a plan. I thought all the way up until the Conference. All of the Clan Leaders were there and a few other human Representatives on one side of the Urgalak (Which is the Alien War Planning Table) and a lot of Daam'Kavosh on the other side. Many looked different from one another. Then after many minutes of Silence, a Drone spoke up. "Let's get this meeting to order." Everybody else mumbled, probably agreeing so they can get the hell out of this Ship. "It appears our slaves has broken free of their shackles and unleashed a wrath upon the insignificant race which are promptly called 'Humans'." There was a pause, then he spoke up again. "Why should us, as the most powerful race in Existence help your puny race?" No one spoke, then I decided to speak up for Humanity. "Because you as a race are also threatened." Then the Drone turned to me. "Why should we feel threatened?" I say "Because if they broke free from your prisons of Solitary Confinements, they may be more powerful then you think." There was another pause. Then I again spoke. "It'd be wise to initiate an attack upon the Dom'Novosh whilst they are pre-occupied with us!" It then spoke up. "All in favor of initiating a surprise attack upon our old Slaves, raise your subterranean claws/tentacles/hands. All of the Humans raised their hands no doubt, and only a few Daam'Kavosh raised theirs. About a 65/35 ratio was agreeing to attack the Dom'Novosh where it hurts. It sighed. "Fine then, how should this plan out?" I look at the Drone straight in one of it's six beady eyes. "Here's my plan."

The Human race formed a massive Fleet comprising of Several Battleships, a lot of Cruisers/Destroyers and an uncountable mob of Fighters. We had a small team of Elite Stealth Fighters sent to Sol. Where the main activity of the Dom'Novosh lies. It's been about a week since we last saw those men. I, inside of an old Liberty Dreadnought that was decommissioned years ago, decided to grab a drink in the Bar. I walked through a couple of long corridor's before I approached the Bar. I sat on the Bar stool and looked the Bartender in the eye. "I'd like a Steinlager please?" "Coming right up sir." Just as he had finished this sentence, the whole ship was plunged into Darkness. Then a small emergency light was turned on. I decided it was not time to have a drink of good Beer, but to grab my Fusion Rifle, a flashlight, and a couple of Bouncing Smoke Grenades and explore the rest of the ship for extraterrestrial activity. I walked down the Corridor the Launch Bay. I had only manage to just see the Launch Bay when a group of red things appeared. They were sort of hunched over with a single eye on the Chest. As I watched, I saw more of their Anatomy explained. One of them started sprouting smaller eyes all over it's bodies. Then it popped them out of it's disgusting body and they started rolling everywhere! "This is sick." I say to myself. I aim my Rifle at the enemy, then I thought, "why don't I scan it?" I take out my VRCOM pad. "Oh this is going to be sick." I aim my VRCOM at it and it begins to scan...

VRCOM REPORTS::
OBJECT TYPE: LIVING ORGANISM
POPULATION: 1
CONTAINS: SEVEN HEARTS, ONE EYE, SEVERAL LUNGS, MANY ORGANS TO ACHIEVE IT'S SURVIVAL
DESCRIPTION: A DOM'NOVOSH ORGANISM. PREVIOUSLY SLAVE RACE TO THE DOM'KAVASH, NOW ARE THE NEW WARLORDS OF THE GALAXY. INCREDIBLY ACCURATE WITH THEIR ION BLASTERS. DO NOT APPROACH!

Well this is nice. Incredibly deadly organism. Why can't the Daam'Kavosh create something weak for once?

Anyway, I try to sneak onto my small ship that is currently right behind those aliens. Then I decide to do something so incredibly stupid it's unbelievable. I jump out of my hiding spot and begin shooting those two Dom'Novosh, they were caught by surprise as the laser projectiles were plunged into their soft skin. They dropped to the ground dead. Then as if they expected this, a group of maybe four emerged from a hiding place and began to start shooting me. I managed to find a quick place to take cover before I get blasted to bits. I quickly looked above the cover to see what's happening. They were still shooting me with their Ion Guns. Then there was a pause. I looked above the cover again. They quickly pulled the trigger. Then it hit the cover spot with such a force, it completely blew it up and sent me flying backwards. Then, I quickly rise up from the floor, grab my fusion rifle and begin to defend myself. I move to the right, then to the left, and to the right again whilst shooting. Then, I had to hide behind something again, because they began firing their Ion Projectiles more faster. There was a ship literally right behind me. So I run to it and hide behind it. Then I realised what it was. My Custom Iguana. I quickly jumped in it without those aliens realising it. I quickly activated and turned this thing on. The weapon trigger was glowing towards me. Especially since the aliens are literally right in front of me. I quickly pull the trigger button and unleash a fiery volley of hell upon the Dom'Novosh organisms. They were blown back so hard it wasn't funny. They went straight through a sixteen inch thick Steel wall. "Nice." I chuckled to myself. Then I decided to launch so I could see what the hell is happening outside. I launched into a catastrophe. A massive Mothership was in the middle of the Human Fleet. It looked vaguely similar to the Daam'Kavosh, except it had vines stretching out to all of the Capital ships. "What the hell?" I yell to myself. This is the end of the Human reign. Then, I could feel a sort of intense heat from behind me. A group of red ships began to chase me with a volley of red projectiles.

Looks like I gotta run!

It was only a matter of minutes ago that Project SANRAI has been successfully completed. Many local freelancers and Clan members attempted Project SANRAI and successfully destroyed all of the SANRAI production facilities. Three Sentinal Stations were attacked by our team of Freelancers:

|DP|Denne (Fatigued)
Azha (KIA )
(IOC)Reaper (Fatigued)
|DP|Dark (KIA )
[GR]Dented_Ship (Fatigued)
|DP|LordRaydenMK (Fatigued)
[GR]AZ09 (Fatigued)
Ajay [RUS]/CNS-BANEBLADE (Fatigued)
|TSH|Tribbles (Fatigued)
[UR]Daka (KIA )
TL_IC (Fatigued)
Please forgive me if I forgot your name, send me a PM and I will add you in here

SUMMARY: Everyone met in Inner Core system near the Venn gate awaiting further orders from |DP|Bsenne (Denne). After a half hour of Debriefing, we were on our way to Celldra. On the way, we were under attack by several enemy fleets and many wings. After many blood, sweat, and tears, we arrived at Celldra. Only half of our fleet appeared at Celldra at first, while rest of us were en route to Celldra. Our first objectives were to wait at the RB in the North for regroup. This enabled us to make our initial fleet stronger and more prepared for our first attack. We then made haste to the nearest station. We sat by for a minute attacking a Dom'Setek station whereupon we all realised this station never had the SANRAI production facilities. We then headed back to RB and made our next plan of attack. Then it hit us, there was an alien station in the east of the RB. It was owned by Sentinals, the aliens who owned this technology. We spent many minutes launching our attacks on this massive complex. With every Facility we destroyed, a new fleet appeared to defend the rest. After we destroyed the complexes, we regrouped at the RB again to develop our next strike. At this moment, Ajay[RUS] appeared to help us. However, he quickly decided to use his BaneBlade Battleship for these next strikes. After a minute of preparation, we moved quickly to the next station. This time, we were met with a lot more resistance. We lost two brave Freelancers in that fight: [UR]Daka, and Azha. After this coordinated strike, we met once again at the RB in the North of the system. Then we proceeded to the last station. This station was generally the easiest, as our engineers developed a way to quickly eradicate their shields. And also because the base design looked like a massive floating fish, but that's probably not the reason for this. During this conflict we lost another Freelancer: |DP|Dark. Thankfully, all those whom were lost, were picked up in BaneBlade's Cargo hold to be transported to safety. Soon, we all knew we had to get the hell out! We journeyed across the hostile grounds of Inner Core, running into many alien fleets along the way. The final confrontation at the end was ultimately a run or die situation. Three fleets were waiting for us at the Jump Gate to Weth. Thankfully because of our skill, we managed to quickly run past those evil aliens, and docked with the jumpgate which ultimately led is to Weth, safe from those hostile aliens. We made it out of there, but not without a price.

In the end, all of the SANRAI facilities were immediately destroyed which meant the safety of Humanity and Dom'Kavash were not compromised.

OBJECTIVES:
1. RESCUE MISSION: success 100%
2. ELIMINATE THE SANRAI PRODUCTION FACILITIES: success 100%
3. MAKE IT BACK TO WETH ALIVE!: success 50%

Thankfully, we have achieved our main objectives, however, not all of us brave Freelancers couldn't make it out in one piece. But we have achieved our mission!

Until Next Time! Commodore Dredd Out!
