Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, Imperial center, Imperial palace, conference room The emperor Alexander Varellion walked onto the podium in front of the senate with applause following him as he did so. Then once Alexander ascended the steps onto the podium of the great hall that was the senate room went silent as Alexander began to speak. "My people, today we are gathered here on the at the dawn of a great revelation." "Just recently we thought we were the last of our kind and might have been alone in the galaxy yet as proven we are not alone." "With this comes great benefits with new friends and allies however, some people shun us for believing in what we think is right and working together in an beneficial relationship." "You know of whom I speak, I speak of the Terran federation who have denounced us just as we returned to the fold with our brethren ." "We, the people of the Imperial Republic, who have done no crime except joining with our natural allies are denounced as power-hungry and backstabbing and calling us and our allies unequal." "Whom are they to judge us for our actions, have they an higher opinion then you the people, do they have an higher opinion then our allies." "NO, they despise us just for our stance on slavery, one of the most vile and cruel things in the galaxy and allow millions to suffer in the future." "They think that they have the moral high point with them saying we should not enforce slavery that people can choose to abide slavery if they want." "Yes we should not enforce our will upon others in an ideal galaxy yet the galaxy is not an ideal place and slavery is practiced because it is beneficial for some." "It is our moral duty as humans and good citizens to stand firm against the sight of evil and corruption." "Together we will stand against the tide of any opponent that comes before us might it be the abominations from our moon which will soon be purged or the Terran federation in the future I know that you my people will always stand strong and will remain loyal to our great nation." "So my people us this all true and do you all stand strong no matter the circumstances." The crowd would then cheer yes and there would be some shouts going through the senate hall though a bit more silent in a certain area Alexander then continued on once the crowd got more silent"Now back to the topic, we have an very large and very dangerous base on our moon and I plan to purge it from the abominations that live there." "These creatures are dangerous and a disgrace to the galaxy and if I get re-elected once again then I will assure you that I will all that is in my power to destroy those creatures before my term is over AND if you elect me again then I might be able if you fully support me and the circumstances allow it abolish rations." This then got a large applause but this time silent in a small group amongst the crowd. "Now my people have a nice day" Alexander would say before leaving the podium and going backstage." In the elections there are two main competitors for the title of emperor. Alexander Varellion and Hiroshi nirato. Contrasting with the former election Alexander is supporting the more militaristic factions though, he is still leading the left whilst Hiroshi Nirato is repressing the right leaning factions. In the elections there are two main point of contention, HCF and the market. Alexander is pro-HCF and wants to keep a mixed market economy whilst Nirato is supporting of a free market economy with monopoly's allowed and he is anti-HCF and pro-SATO. Now the question is, who will win the election ? Actions the elections happen 0 ap is spent on promoting the identity of being Imperial and try to get people to see themselves as most importantly an Imperial and not a member of their former nationality 2 ap is spent on making another frigate for defense. 2 ap is spent on finishing the suit in which there will be added in the helmet interface the newest FHT tactical vision as well as it's itoron-steel plating. 1 ap is spent on making a railgun rifle to work in conjunction with the combat suit which will help with issues of recoil and weight which will be a lot less of an issue than in normal cases. 0 ap is spent for the scout corvette to scout all systems in a 2 system radius of Novam Domum for xylorite and Itoron. Army 7,500 men in the Imperial Guard and there are some prototype combat suits ready. Population: 191,500 pure humans, no human-xeno hybrid abominations here

Imperial Republic of Mankind Return to earth Location: Novam Domum, Imperial palace, Emperor’s office Year: 6-4-2121 It was late in the evening on the planet of Novam Domum at the capital dome of the Imperial Republic of Mankind. Here most light would start to go out, people went to sleep to prepare themselves to go to work yet at the Imperial palace the light kept shining, more specifically from the emperor’s office. Here Alexander Varellion was typing at a rapid pace on the laptop in front of him . If a person was to go inside they would be surprised by how messy the office looked. There were a couple of coffee cups scattered around the place and random files littered the place. The centerpoint of the office though was the desk that stood there and the light that shined on Alexander Varellion’s face. His face did not look that good though as any person could see. Tired eyes, pale skin and a yawn every few minutes after which he would again take a sip of his coffee. Alexander knew that this was not healthy for him but he needed to get his work done. Since who knew how much lives could be saved if he had the time to give new orders and how much more people could rebuild their lives. He also needed to figure out how to destroy the grey abominations, especially with the recent sightings. Thus he had stubbornly denied any move to get him to go to sleep, most pressing from his secretary Lily. Alexander felt a warm feeling as he thought of his secretary who had stayed with him for almost as long as he had known even on earth. Then he would pause. Earth, the memories were painful, all that had happened there and all he and humanity as a whole had lost. Thus his thoughts drifted of again to past times on earth and how he had become friends with Lily. Flashback Location: The Netherlands, Haarlem, Earth Year: 8-1-2091 A loud screeching noise could be heard loud as a child groggily woke up from his nice sleep. The child then half-awake pushed the off button on the alarm and slowly woke up. He then looked up and saw on the clock in his room that the time was 7:15 and that he would start to wake up for his first day to the 3rd year class of his primary school. It would be very exciting since he would meet new children who he would hopefully make friends with. He then walked to his parent’s room and then pulled at the bed sheets of his parent’s bed sing-songing “mommy daddy can I go downstairs ?” His parents would then slowly wake up and his mother tiredly spoke up “of course sweetie.” “Ok thank you mommy.” Alexander would say after which he would then go down. Before he went downstairs though he grabbed a book from the side table next to his bed before he went down. The book was called Onwards to space and was a super cool book about how people went to mars to go and colonize it and go on incredible space adventures. He then went downstairs and read it in the comfy chair while waiting for mommy and daddy to come downstairs to prepare breakfast. When he heard them coming down the stairs he ran towards the door and followed his daddy and looked as he saw him make breakfast. He then saw a weird word on the microwave as his daddy made his cornflakes and milk warm. “Daddy what is that, hey pasta us that stands on the microwave ?” He said struggling to pronounce the name. “Nothing to worry about, just a ridiciously cheap product,” he then muttered to himself as he read the small tag” why must everything say made in Australia.” He then went on to prepare breakfast for his son and then right before his son left on his bike to school. “Remember Alexander, try and make friends and not only read books ok.” “Of course daddy” Alexander would say eagerly He then started cycling towards school Around 10 minutes later Alexander arrived at his school where he would nervously listen to the start of year speech and after that he would meet his class. Then he needed to sit in a circle and everyone was introduced to each other. There was nothing special about anyone at the circle except from one person, a girl but she was a girl, he would first try to find other friends, he didn’t want to get cooties. Alexander’s genius mind denied that he didn’t want to be friends because of cooties but because he was nervous but Alexander ignored it. He then talked to a group of cool boys and joined them. But it did not feel right since the boys did not feel very kind but he had to have some friends right. For that day Alexander followed the groups of boys until the next day when in the break the group went to the girl that was sitting alone at a bench alone reading a book and looking like she was alone. “What are we doing guys” Alexander asked nervously as they approached the girl. “Nothing, just giving her a lesson” the biggest boy in the group would say and Alexander found that that did not sound good. Then the big guy of the group of 4 (excluding Alexander) spoke to the girl in an (for a child) menacing voice”what do we have here, a loner reading a book all by herself boohoo .” Alexander started to feel very uncomfortable with what his ‘friend’ was saying, especially after the girl started to cry. He then interjected “guys maybe we should go.” Which the leader squarely rejected by saying “no little guy.” Alexander then felt something building up inside him until he felt that it couldn’t be released and he stood in front of the girl protecting her from the slowly approaching bullies. “NO you are mean and I you will not bully her.” Alexander would said steadfast. The leader of the group then scoffed and said in an angry tone”Don’t go in our way squirt.” Alexander remained standing where he was before the leader of the group punched Alexander in the face and Alexander started to cry which was then noticed by the teachers. An indignant teacher then said “Mr van der steen what is going here ?” After the situation was explained and the bullies walked away Alexander sat with Lily in silence for some time until he spoke with regret clear in his voice. “Sorry for helping them, I didn’t want to be mean.” “Ok, thank you for protecting me though” the girl would say Alexander nodded” what was your name again ?” “Lily” Alexander would nod before noticing the title of the book the girl was reading and would speak in excitement “Is that the book onwards to space”. Lily would nod,”I love that book” Alexander would say in excitement”me too” Lily said. “I wish I could go to space and have amazing adventures” Alexander would say and Lily nodded”me too”. “What would you want to be when you are older ?” Lily asked Alexander with curiosity in her voice. “I want to become an inventor and a king like king Arthur.” Alexander said with pride in his voice. “But you can’t be both at the same time right ?”Lily asked in confusion. Alexander countered with”why not ?”. Then the bell rang and they got back to class. What both of them didn’t know that this was the start of a friendship that would never break and that would survive even after earth was death. -present- Alexander sighed as he though of those fine moments he head on earth but he also smiled as he though of how he met the love of his live. He then looked up. Where had that last thought came from. He just ignored it and though further of how he had met his best friend for life. Then he cleared himself up and remembered he needed to go to work once more. Actions 0 ap is used creating a very small storage shed on the moon to preserve and store the grey abomination body 1 ap is spent trying to make large areas of farmfields with potatoes on them. Meanwhile some of the domes would stop producing potatoes since they were to be moved outside as well as a few other domes and they would start to be replaced by luxury products like coco beans, coffee beans, sugar etc. 2 ap is spent on trying to create a large powered combat suit (like picture from last post) 2 ap is spent creating a university for the people of the Imperial republic and improving the education system 0 ap is spent on setting a corvette on a journey east following the galactic cluster looking for signs of civilization (path of the ship if undisturbed) Military: 7,500 men of the Imperial guard population: 182,500

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, outside of the domes. The winds blew through the fields of green that covered all the eye could see and the blue horizon that could be seen if a person looked up. Here in the fields a small group of men walked through the open area simply looking around at how much everything had changed. Among this group was Alexander Varellion, emperor of the Imperial Republic and the person responsible for making this all possible. It was hard to think that just 20 years ago the planet was totally empty without any life or any vegetation of the sorts. Yet now in the decade that the refugees of earth had landed here more change had happened than in thousands of years. Where there was once no atmosphere there was an atmosphere filled with: Carbon dioxide, oxygen and nitrogen all making sure that life could flourish on the planet. Still there was no animal life on the planet, only the seemingly endless fields of moss that covered its surface. The group walking through the fields and more specifically the emperor himself felt a large sense of pride at all that they had achieved. Because of the tragedy of earth much had been lost yet there has also been an unshakable will to progress and to make sure that the species called humanity would survive whatever the circumstances. Finally the planet of Novam Domum was truly fitting of its name as it had become a new home for humanity. Much still needed to be done however and there were many issues that the IRM faced foremost of these was the facility on the moon. The emperor wanted to purge it as soon as he could yet without the alien technology he was not confident of his chances and capabilities of killing the grey skinned creatures that infested the facility. He knew that he could purge the facility once he acquired the laser technology and a few other and he knew that it was all a hair away if not for one critical issue, the lack of the liquid. This frustrated the emperor to no end seeing as not only could he not purge the facility that was almost constantly on his mind but neither could he stand a chance if any aliens with hostile intentions came barging in and simply conquering the colony without any problems. Alexander felt weak and helpless, he never even on earth like to feel weak and helpless and now especially with humanity being as weak as it was and everything relying on him he hated it even more than in normal circumstances. As such he knew that some military measures were needed to be done and to satisfy his paranoia he had something in mind that could make sure the possible last remaining vestiges of humanity were not helpless. He had plans to make a frigate in the shipyard that was armed with railgun and specially adapted missiles that could be used in space that could be used to defend the colony. Yet he craved for the frigate to have laser weaponry and possibly shields like encountered in the moon base but bigger as to work in space warfare. However he knew that for now he also needed to focus on other things and not totally focus on the lasers. As such he gave orders to: scout the planet of Laxamentum the newest colony of the Imperial republic, create a frigate, start making large agricultural fields as to feed the population and a small special project. Actions 2 ap is spent on creating a frigate 1 ap is spent on scouting the planet of Laxamentum for any unique unknown resources and or plantlife and other things that could be useful more specifically previously unknown minerals. 1 ap is spent on making the equipment for large fields of farm with a crop that could work on this planet (most likely potatoes) and once finished spread it around the places on the planet were agriculture would be viable 1 ap is spent on developing a possible heavy powered armor for soldiers to use and be able to be quit resistant and most importantly temporarily stopping the claws of one of the grey creatures.

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Planet of Laxamentum, colony ship Footsteps hurrying through the halls could be heard at almost any point in the colony ship of the Imperial Republic. People ran from place to place doing all the last minute preparations they needed to do before they would land in a few minutes as they had almost fully descended from orbit and had already passed the atmosphere of the newly named planet Laxamentum. This planet was to become the second planet for humanity (as far as they knew) to colonize (not including Earth) and thus the colonists felt a deep sense of responsibility in making sure that establishing the colony would be successful. Thus 10.000 men and women prepared themselves as they got ready to land. Very slowly the colony ship went downwards as it kept coming closer to the a flat area. This area was part of the steppes close to the mountains of Laxamentum but still in the steppes since this was the most convenient landing place and the colonists could eventually expand into the protected valleys of the mountain ranges. As the colony ship got closer the tension got thicker until finally everyone stood silent as a thump could be heard and a voice would speak over the ship com "lady's and gentlemen we have landed, start phase 1 of the plan. Then as the ramp slowly lowered machines, people and supplies were placed onto position and as the great ramp finally touched the ground everyone quickly and most importantly efficiently got out of the ship and started designating several spots for a number of purposes like, housing, temporary storage and kitchens etc. Just a few hours later the outline of several buildings could be seen as container houses where set up quickly as they were very good as temporary housing since they were simple to set up and to maintain. Whilst everything was being set up outside constant radio chatter could be heard inside the command center (which was safe inside the middle of the ship, I mean who would be so stupid to put the command in a vulnerable outstanding position, right ?) Here captain Mathas Smith carefully commanded the whole operation to make sure that nothing would go wrong. From the outside captain Mathas would appear as one of the calmest persons of the ship yet only his experience and discipline made sure that he didn't get a nervous breakdown with all the pressure he felt on him. He felt as if the future of humanity was on his shoulder (which, as far as he knows, is true.) Mathas doubted if he was good enough as a leader like many in positions of leadership but he reminded him that he was chosen for his competence and experience to lead men into battle or simply run a base otherwise he wouldn't have been chosen for such an important task. As the day slowly came to an end after hours of hard work Mathas was pleased with all the work that he had done and that everything had gone according to plan. Actions 1 ap is spent letting the corvette scout both systems of IRM (Imperial Republic of Mankind) space for something or things that match the signature of the crystalline liquid inside the energy cell as well as looking for other unknown and unique elements or items that were/are unknown at the moment 2 ap is spent trying to figure out how exactly the mechanism works(presumably turn liquid into usable energy or it works as a type of dynamo) and try to see if they can replicate it as well as the rest of the energy cell and if that doesn't work try to make a lesser version of it. 2 ap is spent on making a nitrogen factory that will make sure that there are huge chemical reactions that release nitrogen into the atmosphere so the air of Novam Domum is safe enough to breathe in and to make sure agriculture will be possible.

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, senate building The emperor walked up to the podium in front of the senate where he or the speaker of the house would normally speak in case of meetings of the senate. It was a relatively large room with a large number of seats, a good amount of decoration and finally an elevated podium where government officials would sit and where a person would present their case or give a speech in this case it was the emperor Alexander Varellion. That was because for a long time since their people had last left earth something new was given to them, hope to explore the galaxy and spread out the human race. Recently in the Imperial shipyard the first of many colony ships has been constructed the Ego Optimus which would guide humanity forward towards its glorious purpose. After straightening himself up and thinking about all the good and bad effects that this speech would have he prepared himself one final time before walking towards the podium accepting the applause he was getting of the politicians standing at their seats and he would then stand there in front of everyone, then he began to speak the words that could change the fate of the IRM (Imperial Republic of Mankind) forever. "Today we stand on the eve of a new age, today we will explore the final frontier and learn the secrets of the universe." " We will spread around the universe spreading mankind around the galaxy and experiencing our glorious destiny by making our race strong again." His tone would then turn grave" Yet there is something that I should have told you sooner, 2 years ago the big question that we have had since our first moment of existence has been answered, are we alone in the galaxy and the answer is, no." the emperor would emphasize the no and look at all people in attendance and stared at the camera and as voices started to be heard he lowered his hands as to indicate to be silent as he had not finished his speech yet. " On our moon we have found the research facility of an unknown alien race that was most likely experimenting on alien creatures for their own purposes." " However they died because they were not careful enough and were destroyed by the abominations that they had tried to control." "These abominations of grey skin and predatory nature are part machine and part creature but totally disgusting." "They killed 24 men who bravely stood against them and gave up their lives so the 2 survivors could tell the tale of what happened." Then the emperor's voice turned more determined and inspiring. "Yet we will not break to the threats of the galaxy and we shall know no fear of these creatures as WE are humanity the most stubborn of the galaxy and we shall survive no matter the costs and the consequences and any such abominations and aliens that will stand against us as we ensure our survival will regret the day they ever crossed us." "So people of Novam Domum, the light of humanity and the shining beacon of civilization will we bow down in fear for those filthy creatures." his voice would grow louder and would wipe up the emotions of the people in the hall until most of them shouted "NO together with Alexander and he would continue to speak making all people listen intently to his voice. " We will purge those abominations from our moon we will purge them in the corridors we will purge them in their cells and we will purge them until their graves." "Until then I will know no rest as long as I am assured that humanity will never have to fear those creatures and that they will die on the moon and that that will be their graves." "So my people are you ready to venture forth into the galaxy to spread out our civilization and make Mankind strong." He would continue making a fist and shaking it to rile up the audience who he would let shout "YES" and some other quotes like " long live humanity" and then one voice spoke would shout to Alexander's surprise " LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR" which would quickly gain traction across the crowd and across the domes where everyone could hear the speech or watch it on the tv and there people would all follow the wave that was the support for their leader who had let them to a new purpose, gave them a new hope, and promised so much more. Then for the rest of the day one shout could be heard almost all the time at bars and homes with families and friends celebrating and toasting all shouting " LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR". Actions 2 ap would be spend sending the corvette to explore the tile to the galactic east of Novam Domum and to scan for a lush green planet and a good place to start a colony on that planet, then once a safe spot and planet would be found the colony ship would fly with their warp drives to the planet to settle down and start a new colony 1 ap would be spent carefully dismantling one of the energy cells and studying it and most importantly seeing if it can be reproduced. 1 ap would be spent reducing the amount of CO2 sent into the atmosphere which would most likely go rather easy seeing as the factories were made in mind that they needed to reduce CO2 at some point (see one of the first posts) Imperial guard 7,500 men with 2500 volunteers being recruited into the army this year Population: 155,500

Imperial Republic of Mankind The life of an imperial citizen Location: Novam Domum, Residential district, Worker's house, bedroom It was silent in the bedroom of Kyle and dust was hanging in the air whilst the only sound was the snoring of a man and woman until a screeching loud noise that came from the deepest pits of hell sounded through the bedroom. BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP Kyle and his wife groggily woke up and Kyle with his eyes half opened slammed his hand to turn off that noise box from hell. He then slowly went up, yawned and started getting out of bed and got to the main room in his one story apartment in one of the apartment complexes in the Novam Domum residential district. Then he walked over to the coffee machine, put a cup under it and started it up meanwhile he started to begin preparing breakfast for him, his wife and his child whilst he walked around like a zombie as he was half-awake at the moment. A minute later Kyle brought food and milk to his wife who was laying in bed with a noticeable large mass at her belly (and no she is not fat) he then layed back to her and give her a kiss and putting his hand on the belly. He then felt a heartbeat and smiled "so how are you doing my darling and my little child," he would chime as he played the breakfast next to his wife who was laying on bed smiling", I hope alright" he would say with a large noticeable smile. "Well we are doing alright thank you, though my little child is a bit of a kicker, he is just as annoying as his dad" she would joke. "We can't have that can we,"Kyle smiled", that would just be oh so terrible." he would then tickle the belly to which his life started laughing"Kyle... Kyle..... please stop" she would say in between laughs and Kyle would then give his wife a big kiss before leaving saying" well, I'm going to work now have a nice day.". Then he quickly put on his clothes finished his breakfast and then left the apartment building going down the stairs and then rushed to the train seeing he only had a few minutes left and as he rushed towards the train he went inside just as the door was closing and he swept the sweat from his head but was disturbed by a friendly joking voice. "Well it seems as if you are late even when going to work, I wonder how you will deal with a child." Kyle's best friend Derick chided. "I had to make breakfast for my precious wife and I hoped that the longer I stayed away the less I would smell you, you stink." Kyle then waved his hand in front of his nose before getting punched lightly on the shoulder by Derick and they would continue joking until arriving at the final station at which they needed to step out and they walked towards the miner's station and suited up efficiently and quick. They then went on the train and waited as they in half an hour arrived at the mine. Here they took their mining equipment which was always locked at the mine for safety procedures and went around 30 meters ending at a tunnel/cavern where a part of the iron ore was already dug out but you could still clearly see the brown rust that signaled the ore. Kyle then powered up his drill and started to cut out all the pieces of ore he could see whilst at certain points he could see behind him that supports were added as to make sure the ceiling didn't collapse on him. At around what would count as 14:00 in earth time one tune was sounded through everyone helmet which signaled the start of lunch. They then went to the main floor standing in the line of a large robust machine that put a sort of paste and water into two different holes in the suit thus giving food and drinks. Kyle then ate and drank his food using multiple buttons on his suit mean whilst he remarked on the intercom to a few of his friend "I feel like that Darth Vader guy from that very old earth movie Star Wars if I am correct." "Yeah, though I don't think a lot of people have watched the movies seeing as they are mostly a movie icon that introduced new special effects, wow they were so bad you can't believe it, anyone could see it wasn't real new movies have so much better graphics and special effects." The rest would agree on the intercom until the sound started again and they continued their work and went down the lift to their positions and started to mine, then at around 18:45 and the klaxon sounded signaling the end of the work day. Everyone then once again went to the lockers and locked up their mining equipment. Then they returned once again with the train and then another train eventually arriving back at where they had started and Kyle returned to his wife who had mostly stayed home most of the day and he had a nice evening meal that she had made with the rations she had collected that day and at that moment he rejoiced her being with child seeing as they got extra rations now though most were for her and his child. He then excused himself after his evening meal, went to his bedroom to pick up a small book no larger than his hand and then went to his toilet. Then he carefully made sure that his wife was not around, locked the door and then grabbed a small photograph of Alexander Varellion from behind a painting, opened his small book and read out. " The emperor is the greatest being above all and is the Shepard of humanity." " He guides us and protects us and will forever stand as our eternal guardian." " He makes the land green and the sky full of clouds brining a better future for all of humanity." " He brings us the space and an eternal frontier full of glorious future of mankind." " He gives us food and health and brings us our children." " He is the light of a new age and preaches our glorious future." " The Emperor is god and god is the Emperor." " The Emperor denies his divinity yet only a true god would deny his divinity thus proving he is truly divine." " Emperor protect us from sickness and bring us health, bring us children and give them life." " Deus imperator praetorium." " The emperor protects." Actions 2 ap is spent making a level 2 shipyard to make a colony ship." 4 ap is spent on making a colony ship once the shipyard has been finished." Imperial Guard 5000 men are in the army Population: 149,000

It seems Courland is forgetting their own history."Marcus would remark"With Oren it also started with this people joking about how weak a few baronies were but then it kept growing larger and larger and then Oren was gone, it seems that the same might happen again but this time with Courland being on the recieving end this time.

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, hospital, psychiatric ward The emperor watched from a one sided window the 2 soldiers that were frantically pacing around or crying in the bed and mumbling about monsters. He watched in pity as he saw in which shape the soldiers are and with how few they had survived, he spoke his thoughts to his assistant Lily who was standing next to him. "What happened to them is simply terrible, I trust you have read the mission report, those creatures what they did and what those soldiers went through no wonder that they have mental problems." Lily reacted to that with a sigh and with a few tears in her eyes "I can't comprehend how it must have felt and I agree with what happened to them at least we recovered some technology and answered the age old question, are we alone in the galaxy the answer is no. " The emperor nodded in agreement" True yet it does not change what happened." "We should try and remain this temporarily secret for one to 2 years seeing that we are close to colonizing the next system, when we have colonized it or done all we could and have resources left then we will handle the issue and in the future purge that facility of those creatures." he would say in disgust. Lily nods in agreement. "we should at some point when the facility is purged study the technology inside more specifically the energy systems and the shield that was used, it is an almost alien concept and our knowledge is limited about it." The emperor nods "True yet our military needs to improve their resources and get a good breached before they can truly take over the facility and use it for our own goals. The Emperor then went with his hand through his hair and spoke his thoughts out loud "what kind of race of aliens is so stupid to have so much of these creatures at their facility when they couldn't even control it and now 24 men are dead. Alexander then walked out of the hospital solemnly and as he left and was trailed by Lily he said "Lily when we get back can you get me 24 papers and a pen, I need to write some letters." Location: Novam lunus(moon of Novam Domum), entrance to the underground facility A few people were quickly and fearfully looking making defenses and installing turrets all aimed at the entrance, by Imperial decree it had been stated that nothing was going to get out of the facility at any costs. It was mostly protected with a few mining lasers seeing lasers are the only things that have any effect on the creases and a number of other heavy weaponry aimed at the armor plating that sealed of the entrance meanwhile some experts observe all that they can outside of the facility especially the pedestal and trying to figure out what the language was but without any extra information or words that seemed to be a useless task. one officer talked to another with their suit coms as they oversaw the fortification. "Have you read the mission report on what happened ?" "yeah, it is almost unbelievable luckily though outside here the area is open and we can use our numbers a lot more effectively than inside the facility so we will not get slaughtered, most likely those things are truly vicious, they can survive multiple grenades that literally blasted away the limbs of one of the men." "Yeah those things are pretty scary, I am happy that I wasn't chosen for going inside the facility I'd most likely have died." "True." "Well it is time to get back to work, we wouldn't want to be lazing around and being accused of being incompetent." Location: Novam Domum, Imperial palace Alexander was thinking in his office about how to deal with the situations that kept arising and most importantly how to make sure that mankind was spread around and become safer. He knew that to achieve that goal he needed to make sure that new colonies were founded and that he needed to make new colonies. To make new colonies he needed more people and to have more people he could simply wait or take action to speed up the process. Actions 4 ap is spent to start a breeding program that aims to make sure that more children are born and it is promoted that every family should have at least 4 children. Child presentative measures like condoms or pills are forbidden except for people who have sexually transmitted diseases and if so artificial impregnation is done. Furthermore for each child a family has a 5% tax reduction is added to promote child birth even more. Added to this a branch of the government is created that helps with taking care of large amount of children like mass kindergartens and child care facilities Military 4978 population: 139,476

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, outside of the domes Novam Domum, a planet filled with vast amount of minerals and one of the first planets to be attempted on a huge scale by mankind. Yet most of it is a barren planet full of deserts as far as the eye can see at most places. This changed a few years ago when mankind first landed on this planet. Now it is partially scattered with: biodomes, mines, factories and trains yet this planet had never seen any rain drop from the sky for millions of years since there is no atmosphere. Yet from the sky in a place that no one saw or anyone had seen the first drop of 'rain' in ever rained down close to the colony. It was ink black and painted the floor black. With surprise on their faces if you looked outside or on the news network then they could see what they had always been told but not always believed could have happened. Rain, the proof that humanity could regardless of circumstances and the environment always adapt and survive. This momentous occasion was celebrated all around the colony with many a man and woman dancing on the streets wishing each other good luck and looking forward to the bright new future. Location: Novam Domum, Imperial palace Alexander Varellion looked onto his reports and smiled though his frown conflicted with this. This was because there was both good and bad news. Mostly good news since Alexander smiled yet there were also a number of bad things that happened. This was so since the beginning of an atmosphere was starting to form and it was proof that his efforts were paying off and slowly making sure that Novam Domum could be livable. This was also accompanied with the warp drive proving successful and morale being hugely improved with the prospect of exploring space. Yet a lot of material and effort had been wasted and whilst the research into leaser weapons had not been totally wasted adapting earth weaponry to space turned out to be a case of materials and effort. This severely frustrated Alexander since he severely disliked wasted resources and would rather like to use the things he has and improve it or make it better. This fed into his weak point and nervousness that he was not a good enough leader and that whilst his people liked him he was not the best leader they could have. Still he reminded himself everyone made mistakes at some point and as long as a person does not make the same mistake again and not improve or try to avoid the problem everything was alright. His most positive point was however that he had once again won the election and he was happy with that and was happy with the polite and civil election with a respectful and honorable opponent who he really liked and had also made friend with with the time they had talked off-stage. Now that the it has started to rain and that he had been re-elected it was time to fulfill on his promises and to progress the colony even further. As he thought this Alexander readied himself and walked over to his computer and gave orders to his people and get ready to make the planet truly livable. Since Alexander was not happy with just black rain drops sometimes coming out of the sky he wanted to have a green planet where his people could walk outside without a suit walking over green hills and picnicking over the trees. Now it was time to make Novam Domum a true home. Actions 3 ap is spent on constructing and designing machines that plant oxygen producing plants that do not require a lot of water and that will travel around the planet without needing a lot of support and only need to restock and then continue their work. 1 ap is spent expanding the domes and making more rooms for families to grow. (I don't know if this needs ap or not.) the corvette is send off the explore and scan the nearby moon Military 5000 men are in the Imperial guard

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, front of the imperial palace, backstage behind the podium. Alexander Varellion played with his clothes and paced around the room. You might wonder why he was nervous and backstage behind the podium but that is because it was almost time for the second election of the emperor of the Imperial Republic of Mankind. This was a tense moment for the emperor since he was now waiting until he was announced to come on the podium to give a speech to his supporters. Meanwhile he paced around the backstage with plenty of people rushing to make sure the presentation was going to be good and that the campaign would be successful so that their emperor would stay emperor. Alexander's mind mirrored the controlled chaos going on with him thinking if he was even a good enough emperor and if he could even win the election against his opponent. His opponent he thought with disdain as he thought about him,Bennard Vitelli, was a militaristic politician who was rather militaristic and supported a large military and as such he led the militarist fraction in the senate. Alexander who was again running for emperor was in opposition against Bennard generally seen as leftist and was generally seen as a centralist who wanted to appease all groups of society though he supported a large government who successfully led it's people. Still the election was not really hostile since both opponents had great respect for each other since Bennard was ambitious but he also admired how Alexander had led the refugees of earth and rebuild their society whilst Alexander respected Bennard since he was an important former general who had a temporary resignation and became a political to better help the military get represented in the senate. So the election whilst tense was generally friendly and there was no open hostility between the two main contenders. There were a number of other people who ran for emperor but these two were the main candidates. Then Alexander saw a screen counting down until he could go up the podium quickly he calmed himself and got ready as the screen counted down. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, Alexander walked towards the curtains that separated the stage from backstage and he composed himself and got ready to walk up the podium and mentally repeated the plan they had set up. 4, 3, 2, 1, Then Alexander walked up the brightly lighted podium with a small smile on his face and waving towards the crowd who were cheering as he was announced and walked op the podium. As Alexander stood on the elevated location on the podium with his speaking stand and as he turned towards the crowd they slowly went silent as they waited for their emperor to speak. " My friends, my supporters, my people in the last years we have made much progress since coming here to our new home." "When we first came here it was a barren land empty of anything and with only minerals begging to be colonized and now look around us, we have rebuilt and we are continuously growing stronger." "We have built mines going deep into the crust with our steadfast men mining and then we have our determined factory workers who keep making new products and who are rebuilding our society." "We have even built our first space ship our proud corvette that is almost ready to explore space, the final frontier." "Yet we are by a long shot not finished and we need to keep progress and keep becoming even better than we were before and continuously making ourselves the proud example of how stubborn humanity is and that we will survive no matter the circumstances." "I know that if we work together that anything is possible and I believe that if you will elect me again as your emperor I will be honored and duty bound to make our people even better than before." He would then let the crowd cheer for a moment till he continued his speech. "Yet now we live in cramped houses and though the new generation is quickly being born they are still few in number and we might be the last humans in existence and as such I promise that if you will once again elect me as emperor then I will improve the quality of life for everyone on the surface of Novam Domum and that I will make sure more humans will be born so we can colonize the stars and beyond and that we will make our race great again." "So my people are you with me ?!!."Alexander would say with a loud voice saying the last part whilst during the whole speech he would have a inspiring tone from his voice as he spoke to his people. Alexander would continue his speech for almost an hour until ending the rally and then went of the stage leaving with a thunderous applause behind him. Alexander would then go to the palace and do his evening work since even if there was the election going on he still needed to do his work. Then his assistant Lily came in with a cup of coffee and a warm smile on her face. "Well Alexander that was a nice speech you had today, got a good amount of support." she would say as she handed a cup of coffee to Alexander who would patiently sip his coffee until reacting "Maybe but I don't know if I am ready for this I am just a man and in my heart I am just a scientist who only does this since he does not know if there is someone else better for the job." Lily would then put her hand on Alexander's shoulder as a sign of support, Alexander would feel a flutter in his chest as Lily's hand went on his shoulder but he would shrug the feeling off. "Alexander I know that you are the best man for the job and the people know that too with you constructing this whole colony and doing things almost thought impossible with you slowly terraforming the planet." She would then look him straight in the eyes with a glint of determination in her own" I and the people know that you are the best man we could have for this and never doubt yourself understood ?" "Yes ma'am ."he would say with a warm smile which turned into full blown laughter as Lily punched him in the shoulder. For the rest of the hour they would laugh make jokes and just enjoy lives like normal people would which was rather rare for them with Alexander having such a busy life as emperor of the Imperial Republic. Actions The elections happen (the mod can decide to make a choice or not if Alexander becomes the emperor but if he doesn't intervene I will assume Alexander wins the election.) 1 ap is spent testing the warp drive in a remote location and if it is successful retrofitting the corvette with one of the drives in case it is successful 1 ap is spent adapting already existing earth weaponry for space warfare 2 ap is spent looking into weaponizing the mining leaser into possible laser cannons for space warfare Population: 124,500 Imperial guard 5000 soldiers are in the army

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, Shipyard The emperor looked up from the ground level of the shipyard and looked up in awe as he observed the large facilities of the shipyard. Silently he thought to himself "when it was empty it didn't seem so large." He walked past all the machines working and workers preparing machines to start making ships for the glory of the Imperial Republic. There was a lot of: smoke, noise and people walking around moving parts, machines and other things. The emperor then walked towards one man ordering the people in the shipyard around surrounded by his bodyguards who cold faced and disciplined made sure there was no threat to their leader. He then went to talk with the overseer of the shipyard Thomas Smith who was not seeing the emperor approaching as he was busy with ordering everyone around. He only noticed the emperor and his guards as the emperor started to speak ? "It seems there has been a lot of progress here at the shipyard, it looks rather efficient doesn't it?." The shocked overseer then had a small jump in the air as he suddenly heard a clear and commanding voice speaking just behind him. He then saw the emperor and slightly relaxed as he saw it was no threat to him but this was replaced by a large sense of admiration in the eyes of the overseer who quickly pulled himself up and tried to keep his composure. "Yes your excellency it has been rather efficient,"Thomas would say"it is also ready to start producing spacecraft and other space related constructs." The emperor would nod looking pleased" That is pleasing, could we be able to start producing corvettes with fusion drives for exploration ?" Thomas would then nervously and quickly speak again" Yes we could, with the large amount of minerals gathered by the mines we could produce a lot of corvettes and if the facilities were slightly expanded we could even start producing a series of frigates." The emperor would then seem to be in thought for a moment until he spoke again with his clear and rather inspiring voice. "That is true yes and eventually we will produce frigates and send them into space yet we first need to find ways to effectively use the frigates with good weaponry and quick travel, whilst we might have those two elements not yet eventually we will deploy them into space and continue expanding mankind into the final frontier." He then cleared his throat again"Now you need to start building two corvettes with the purpose of exploring this system and it is more important to make one finished corvette than two barely finished corvettes understood ?" The overseer nodded eagerly"Yes we will start making a corvette for the purpose of exploration your excellency." "Good,"the emperor said", be on your way." The overseer would then scramble back and bow his head towards the emperor until returning to work Location: Novam Domum, science facility The emperor walked into the science facility walking towards the chief scientist and patiently waiting till the chief scientist noticed him he would then quickly speak giving a new objective to the chief scientist. He would speak with an annoyed and irritated voice "I need you to figure out how to make a lesser version of the Jump drive since it seems you can't figure out the jump drive, understood ?"the chief scientist would quickly nod. The emperor was annoyed because he had recently heard from one of his bodyguard that the peronsality cult centered around him seemed to have quickly been growing quickly and already there was a group of 100 people praising him like he was a god and using his powers to terraform Novam Domum. It was exceedingly frustrating since he could not directly address it or it would get more popular and he had already tried sending the police to discourage the cult but they ignored him and simply kept praising him as a god. It was so frustrating since Alexander Verellion is an atheist and there is religious freedom in the colony so he can't deal with it and he found it stupid that people believed in old superstition and had such stupid ideas about him. He simply went with his hands through his hair and went to his bedroom to rest after hearing this frustrating news. Actions 1 ap is spent making 2 scout corvettes though if they can't both be finished all focus will be on 1 of the corvettes 3 ap is spent figuring out how to make a lesser version of the jump drive consuming less energy and most likely being slower than the original jump drive

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, Industrial district The Emperor Alexander Varellion was walking over the gravel roads spanning over the Industrial zone. He was disguised as a middle-class factory worker but was secretly observing how the progress was going on: the shipyard, the factories and the railway. The emperor then walked through the iron doors of a random factory and walked into the noisy hall at which he could see a large amount of people working at the assembly lines and other parts of the factory watching machines spit out machine parts and other tools. He walked around careful not to stumble over something or bump against someone whilst observing the situation in the factory and more specifically the process at the forge. As he had been informed some time earlier that the manpower reserves were starting to deplete and that the process of smelting could be more automated with some changes. To try and make sure that those reports were true he went to observe the process of the factories and the working conditions of them. He could see that the factories were mostly clean and organized with the exception of the smelting and machine rooms with everyone working orderly and doing good work. Yet as aforementioned the conditions in the machine and smelting rooms were a bit worse since the large heat both generated particularly at the smelting room. As he walked past the assembly lines and the people carrying materials to different sections of the factories he interviewed some of them about if they were satisfied with the work that they did. Most of them did like their work and were happy with making progress yet especially at the smelting room it was more demoralized and chaotic as the heat agitated the workers and made lives hard for them. This made the decision of the emperor more clear as he thought about automating the smelting process and his opinion was finally cemented into stone as he observed the smelting room of the local tool factory. It seemed that a large part of the process that could be done by machines were largely done by humans and was exceptionally manpower consuming and if he managed to automate the process more and involve less humans that meant that the process might get less faults since humans inevitably make mistakes. After some time observing the factory he walked out of it and was happy to breath in relatively fresh air as he left the factory with lower oxygen levels then on the streets. After leaving the factory the emperor went to the entrance of one of the Industrial domes and put on his environmental suit to make sure he could breathe and work outside of the domes. He then took a small track of 5 minutes to another part of the distract that already had some basic infrastructure staring to go to it but it was mostly empty, the shipyard. He looked at the large empty concrete building and instinctively calculated and thought of ways to make it better and make it ready to start producing space ships. This shipyard was really important to him since it would need to start producing his space fleet to guard the planet of Novam Domum and to explore the universe. After the signal that had been briefly heard the emperor had ordered the science team not to talk about it until a further date when more information was gathered but hearing the news the emperor had thought of several plans on how to prepare the Imperial Republic for the aliens that he would almost surely eventually meet. Formost of his plans was to know where and what the aliens were to make sure that he was prepared to do what was needed according to each alien race. Silently thinking to himself the emperor admitted that he was rather xenophobic and did not really trust aliens. Who knew what the goals of aliens were and what their emotions were and what he disliked the most about aliens that he did not know them. He feared few things but his biggest fear was ignorance and he knew he was ignorant about alien societies. Adding to this was his idea that aliens had entirely different goals then humans and would eventually try to destroy them and he believed that all aliens should be controlled so they would not prove a threat to humanity. Although even if they would meet alien societies he would do what he thought to be best thing for his people and humanity and not let his own personal beliefs affect what was best for humanity. He thought all of those things as he approached and entered the compound that was the shipyard. For now it seemed the framework and foundations of the shipyard were established but it had not been furnished at all and some parts of the construction still needed to be finished. He then went on to think about how to further construct the shipyard until he came upon the coming election in 2 years. The emperor was nervous for this since even if he in reality didn't want to be the leader of mankind and the colony he didn't think there was anyone else who could carry the burden and responsibility as good as him. He thought that if he wanted to win the coming election he needed to give the people a larger standard of life and start to get people to have more children to repopulate the human race. He knew that he was rather popular in the colony and the people were happy with a purpose but he was nervous about :how the people really thought about him if he could improve the living conditions and most of all if he could rebuild the human race against. He then went with his hands through his hair and then went into think stance for a few minutes until breathing out and going with his hands through his hair. It seemed that personal issues could not be fixed simply by logical thinking and that he would need some personal guidance from his friends. Alexander's face brightened up at the thought of his friends most of all his secretary Lily. Lily was his trusted secretary and without her he would have been buried under all the work he had years ago. Yet most of all she was a friend who he could rely on when he was at his worst and would always try to help him and give her best possible advice to help him. Every time he saw her he could feel a tingling in his chest and blood flowing through his cheeks yet he kept himself under control and denied the feelings he had for her. His mind and heart both said to him that he was in love with her but his determination said that it was not so and that he had other things to worry about. Alexander then sighed again, in frustration this time, as he realized that thinking logically did make the situation more complex and frustrating. He then walked: back to the capital dome, to the capital building and to his bedroom and then lay back in bed slowly drifting of as he thought about all issues he had and all issues to come before he closed his eyes and quickly went to the land of the sleeping. Actions 1 ap making a number of biodomes with the only purpose of agriculture and with one of them only having the purpose to grow fruit, coffee beans and other luxury products. 2 ap is spent on finishing the shipyard 1 ap is spent on automating the smelting process. Imperial guard 5000 men are in the army Population: 114,500 people

A man looks in surprise as an ork messenger goes to his almost entirely unkown town to bring the message and think "Isn't this a bit too much effort to give everyone their message."

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, Emperor's office The Emperor of mankind also known as Alexander Varellion by his friends carefully observed the papers that were laying on his desk. Work had progressed good with the preparation of a road or a railway between the industrial zone and the mines, the colony ship had been properly disassembled and the Industry has kept expanding rapidly. Yet there were some other bad sides to this; he now had a hard choice between choosing a road or a train for transport, manpower was running out because of the increasing Industry and almost no progress has been made regarding the jump drive. Alexander thought carefully as he looked out of his window over the mars like environment of Novam Domum. Having a road would be advantageous in the short term and would not cost as much resources to maintain and produce but that means that there would also need to be a lot of trucks constructed and it could not transport materials in as large a quantities as the train. Thinking about it Alexander decided on the train since it could still be expanded over long distances and would be able to transport larger quantities of materials then a road would, furthermore it would also be interesting to see how good the industry could work and how successfully they would construct a train with train tracks. Now on to the other issue he had. Industry had been growing rapidly yet through this rapid growth there was also the start of a manpower shortage that he definitely needed to fix soon or the problem would only grow. For a few moments the emperor contemplated the options on how to solve this problem. Then he realized that he simply needed to do what was happening in factories for centuries. He needed to make them more automated needing to use less humans as workers and mostly as maintenance people. This would be a good solution and the emperor immediately started typing a number of ways things could become more automated. "Now that Industry and mining had almost been established," the emperor thought"Maybe I should stop actively interfering with that part of society and start focusing on other things right now." The highest priority at the moment to improve would be making the space port and after that trying to improve the quality of life in the colony so people could have larger homes which would be able to accommodate more people and this would enable families to grow larger and human civilization to recover again. The emperor also thought that soon in two years the next elections would begin and thought that if he promoted improving the quality of life and his already large popularity he could be able to easily win the coming election. As he looked over his report he found a sentence about a small personality cult growing in the Industrial zone that praised him almost like a divine being yet it was only a group of a few young people and nothing to worry about, after all they lived in a (relatively) free colony. The Emperor also thought about the mystery of the jump drive after a few moments. No one knew where it came from and no one definitely knew how it worked. It made him wonder, how could the jump drives have simply appeared out of nowhere and just poofed into existence. The emperor then thought" I should not think about it, it is not an issue that I could explain soon." He then got on with his work sending commands through his computer on top of his desk which would then be sent to the data pads of the relevant people regarding each project that would then go and do their tasks and give the orders to their subordinates. The emperor would go one working for a long time until 10pm and would continue working until he heard the door open and a gentle warm voice speaking. " Did you work too long, again ?"he would look up and see his secretary who had brought in a cup of chocolate milk that was really rare since there was only a small cacao supply on the colony ship and even fewer cows in the colony for any milk. Hearing this Alexander would raise his chest and smile at his secretary" There does not exist something like too much work, but I think I'll take a long break of 6 hours for sleep." lily his secretary kept staring at him until Alexander finally relented and grunted" Ok then 8 hours."he would then nod with appreciation to Lily and go to bed after a long day of work. Actions 1 ap is put into building a railroad in-between the Industrial district and the mines 1 ap is put into automating the Industry so it requires less manpower to keep working 2 ap is put into making a shipyard which is located close to the Industrial district so basic components can be built in the ordinary factories.

Why not, I'm up for it

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, deconstruction site Hans Friedrich was walking around the deconstruction site of the colony ship. A lot of people were milling around the site most of them being engineers carefully salvaging the ship yet there also were some observers, watching as the ship that brought them to their new home was given a new purpose. As he looked around Hans could also see large pieces of machinery cutting of pieces of the ship whilst trucks kept coming to pick up the pieces to transport to the storage facilities. Hans thought about how much things had changed since they had first come to Novam Domum. First there was only a barren Mars like surface with nothing around and almost no atmosphere whatsoever. Yet now as he looked around he could see domes scattered around the planet surface and the smokes of industry releasing carbon dioxide into the air. Much has changed and progress was being made and everyone was happy about that, yet some people still had moments of depression realizing that they were possibly the last hope of humanity had left and all the family and friends who had died on earth whilst they managed to survive. Hans quickly threw away sad thoughts. What were the use of depressing thoughts when there was work to be done. He then started to walk around the construction site supervising the work being put into the Colony ship being deconstructed and gave advice to those who needed it and also gave a helping hand were it was needed. Then as it became late and the sun set and the cold started to spread around the construction site the crew finished their tasks and then went back to their cramped homes in a biodome. They then went to their homes and ate their rations for the day talked a bit with their wives or their friends if they didn't have wives and then woke up. Then the process would repeat and work would progress. Yet people were also happy to have work and to have routine, the first months on the planet were harsh without the biodomes but eventually everything was settled and people had progressed with their lives. Unluckily or luckily depending on your perspective Hans had a slight difference in his routine. Once per week or more depending on how much progress had been made Hans needed to bring a report to the Emperor. At first had been nervous meeting the emperor yet everything had gone flawlessly and it was just a efficient activity with no problems being raised. As the weeks progressed Hans could see little pieces of how the emperor really was behind his official stature and heavy responsibilities and began to have a bit of small talk with him. Slowly Hans and the emperor Alexander Varellion became good friends and their talks were small breaks in their busy life and a time where they could both stop holding up appearances and just talk as two normal friends and have some coffee before going home. This day Hans again went to the emperor his office and had in one of his hands two cups of coffee and with his other hand he knocked on the door. Moments later he could hear a voice saying calmly "come in."Alexander then opened the door with his free hand and walked inside with a wide smile on his face. "So Alexander how are you doing,"Hans said with a warm tone in his voice and a smile on his face as he walked in "I hope you haven't overworked yourself again.". Seeing Hans was coming in Alexander relaxed, released his posture and leaned back against his chair and starting speaking in a sarcastic but happy voice. " Well I am having a nice day alright and me overworking what are you talking about I never overwork,"Alexander would say this with a smile on his face" and you don't have to mother me, I already have Lily for that." The interaction would then go with both Alexander and Hans talking and simply relaxing ((that part of my interaction got deleted when I typed my post)) Actions 1 ap is spent further salvaging the colony ship and making the materials ready to be used in building the shipyard 1 ap is spent on studying the jump drive 1 ap is spent on helping the entrepreneurs with setting up their mines and setting up and improving other mines with the new tools made from the factories. 1 ap is spent on improving improving the transport capabilities from the mines to the Industrial zone with a new road being constructed and trucks being made or if there is enough Industrial capacity create a train that picks up all the ore from the mines and then goes to bring it to the industrial zone. Ap spent -Domestic affairs and welfare- 5 ap is spent on mining (2 of it for making equipment for mines) 3 industry 1 salvaging the colony ship -Military and Expeditionary action- 2 ap spent scouting -Events- 1 ap spent on trying to decode a signal -Imperial guard- 5000 men in the army population: 107.000

Imperial Republic of Mankind Location: Novam Domum, Industrial district. It was clear day in the Industrial district. Everywhere you could see smoke rising from the factories and new factories being constructed. Furthermore there were dozens of people walking through the streets: chatting to each others, having their lunch or doing a number of other activities. Yet surprisingly there was not a huge amount of pollution with most of the pollution going through pipes to the top of the Industrial dome to increase the output of smoke into the atmosphere. In one of the cafes sat a group of normal looking people but those were decidedly not so. At the table were the Emperor of the Imperial Republic Alexander Varellion and some of the biggest entrepreneurs in the colony. Some thought that they were a bit foolish with too much ambition, but the emperor did not think so and was now speaking to them. Of course they were all disguised in regular clothing and there were a bodyguards sitting at the surrounding tables making sure no danger would come to the emperor. The Emperor who would be referred to as Alex during the conversation began to speak" So I heard that you were looking for exploiting some of the rich mines surrounding the colonies, right ?" They would nod and a young man with a confident look would take the lead and speak" Yes we are the representatives of a group of people who have an interest in exploiting the mines, we see the potential in them and wish to use them to provide jobs and kickstart an economy." The emperor then thought for a moment before reaching a conclusion and staring al the entrepreneurs in the eyes" I do see potential in your plans," the eyes of the Entrepreneurs would brighten but the clear calm voice of the emperor would then break their line of thought" Yet I first want to see how much your actions can measure up to your words." " So here is the deal," The emperor would then nod to a bodyguard who would then pull out a map of the area and spread it out around the dining table"we have a large number of rich iron veins, for the moment you can have these mines."he would point to a 5 brown spots on the map indicating a large amount of ore. "If you manage to successfully run the mine and make a profit then you will be allowed access to other mines and be able to expand your companies, yet if you fail and manage to run your companies to the ground and misuse the iron ore then all those mine will be taken over by the state and your business will be taken as compensation for our generosity." The emperor would speak in a clear, cold voice properly sending the message to all of the entrepreneurs. The young man would again take the lead of the group" I think these conditions are agreeable, do you want to sign a contract or something to close the deal." "I think my word is a clear enough answer yet I will be able to sign a contract with you,"he would again nod to his bodyguard who would get a thick pack of paper out of his pocket with the front page leaving spots open for people to write their signatures in. The Emperor would then motion to the men to sign the contract who would then with some hesitation but finally with a determined look would sign the paper. "Now I wish you all good luck with your enterprises and that this was a good investment."The Emperor would say this with a warm tone in his voice, after this he would nod to the men and walk out of the cafeteria motioning his men to follow. Location: Novam Domus, Research lab The chief scientist, Friedrich Bauman a man of large stature and with brown would intensely study a large set of vague codes would be on the screens. So concentrated was he that he didn't notice the emperor until he heard his voice sound through the chamber with a friendly and warm tone"So Friedrich my friend what have you found what will quote' certainly pique my interest' that required me to come here" he would say to his partner and friend from long before the colony was even founded. Friedrich would jump up for a moment hearing the voice just behind him until he smiled and turned around to Alexander " Well your grace we have gotten a faint signal from somewhere," Friedrich would motion to the set of codes "Yet as you can see it is in a strange tongue and it seems to have some technical difficulties so we will need some resources to decode the message." The emperor would nod and stroke his beard and after some time thinking would reach a conclusion" Amplify and decode the message, I will send some experts to help with decoding the message and we will help with the scanners being marginally improved." "Anything else that you want to report ?" Friedrich would answer " Yes I would be interested in studying the warp drive which brought the colony ship here, It is certainly an interesting topic but we would need some resources to start studying it properly." "mhm...... we'll see if we can get extra resources assorted for the project, I assure you next year we will start researching it but we first have other things on our agenda." " Wait I have an idea, I can start deconstructing the ship already to start making a shipyard for in the future whilst the Jump drive will be delivered to you when the ship has been deconstructed." Alexander would then stand up straight and clear his throat and would look as if a few kg was placed on his shoulder " Maybe we can drink a coffee together sometime when I have managed to clear up some of my paperwork, I say some since the paperwork will never end."the last part he would say quietly and mostly to himself with a grumble of dissatisfaction. " Well I hope that it will be soon, otherwise I need to drag you out of your office." Friedrich would say with a joking tone, then smile and nod at Alexander. " Have a nice day." After that Friedrich would once again become fascinated with the codes on the screens and would not even hear the doors open and the emperor leave. Actions 2 ap is spent making equipment for permanent mines and making more equipment to be sold to the entrepreneurs 1 ap is spent strengthening sensors but most importantly trying to decode the message 1 ap is spent salvaging the colony ship and making most of the materials ready to be used in constructing a shipyard whilst the jump drive is carefully kept in tact to be studied at a later date.

Imperial Republic of Mankind The emperor stroked his chin as he observed the results of establishing the first mines. It seemed that there was a large amount of ore around the colony that could be used for many purposes. Yet something bothered him; he did not know what was on the planet and what might be on the planet except the red wastes and the large amount of minerals. He then went and typed onto his computer the following orders " Organise a scout party and start scouting the direct area around the colony and do a preliminary search for any possible intelligent life on the planet, secondary objectives: Find any materials and plants native to this planet, observe native life form and finally look for methane and other materials or gasses that create a large amount of carbon dioxide." The emperor then put his hand through his hair and then went with his hands across the face. Alexander Varellion was a normal man with no special powers; he was just a simple, well not exactly simple but still just a man but he felt the responsibilities. Then he heard a door opening and as he looked up he saw a woman with a warm smile and may he say it rather pretty. It was his head assistant Lily Amber, she had: dark brown hair and a slight tan. She was the only reason that he did not have even more stress and that he didn't drown in a mountain of paperwork, well it is digital but it is the idea that counts. "So Alexander more work ?" She would say with a friendly and slightly joking voice. "Don't talk to me about it,"He would say with a sigh of desperation though he would smile a little and get a joking tone "Shouldn't you talk to me as my emperor or your grace." Lily would roll his eyes and smack Alexander lightly behind his head" oh yes, your the great leader of the Imperial Republic and the savior of mankind." "It is not as if I have known you before you were a cocky Emperor "Hearing this Alexander would let his chest rise and speak in a fake cocky and arrogant tone "I will not simply let this be." It was a tense moment until both Alexander and Lily started laughing. For a few moments this would continue until both Alexander and Lily composed themselves. "So is there anything you want to speak of ?"Alexander asked with a raised eyebrow. "Well I first came to you to give you your lunch since you sometimes forget to eat,"Lily would roll her eyes"yet I also wanted to suggest to you that some of the police force would be converted into a proper army since we don't have that at the moment." The emperor stroke his beard and seemed to be in thought for a moment. "Well that is a good idea but I first need to focus on other goals but thank you for the suggestion."The Emperor would then nod and motion his hand towards the door which Lily took as her command to leave. "Have a nice day, my lord."She would say the last part with a small jest. Alexander then smiled and put his order into his computer Actions 2 ap, expanding the Industry of Novam Domum 2 ap, scouting the area around Novam Domum with the main objective being to find Remnants of or intelligent life and secondary objective being to find Native materials or lifeforms of the planet and to find Materials or gasses that have a high Co2 output. Industry and mining 3 ap for mining 1 ap for industry Military 5000 men are recruited into the military Research -none- Population: 102,000

The Imperial Republic of Mankind Year: June, 2106 Location: Hyperspace, Colony ship the last of terra Alexander Varrellion the captain of the ship the last of Terra and commander of the 1st colonization fleet sat in his captain's chair as he watched the Hyperspace flow around the ship. From an outside perspective he would look: calm, calculated and in deep thought. Yet this was not how Alexander felt; he was panicking inside and having doubts in his head about the operation. He thought "Are we going to survive, am I going to fail, am I going to doom one of the last chances of mankind." and many other thoughts of uncertainty. Yet he kept his appearances, since if he panicked then everyone would panic. After a long journey and a silence in the bridge a message would appear on the central screen,"five minutes until arrival at unidentified planet". Everyone got tense and look at Alexander, Alexander said "men go to stations , prepare: a scouting party, prepare to power up the weapon systems and put the fleet on high alert." At these commands the crew would do their tasks and prepare themselves for arrival. Alexander from his chair would micro manage the different tasks from a computer attached to the chair. Moments later a voice would be heard through the ships " arriving in system in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, leaving hyperspace. A tug would then be felt in the ships and the ships would then enter out into the orbit of a new planet. The planet would look remarkably like Mars and its orbit would be empty except for the small fleet coming out of hyperspace. Everyone then snapped to attention as the captain stood up and all was silent, his words were spread throughout the entire fleet " Today we have arrived in a strange new world, this world is far away from our old one and we can never go back." "yet here we have a new world with new opportunities new dreams and most importantly a great responsibility for us to bear." "We might be the last of our kind, the last humans and it is our task, No our duty to all those who have lost or will lose their lives on earth to make sure we are not forgotten." "We will stand strong and mankind will spread out among the starts and in hundreds of years we will be known as the first and last of our kind." "We will be remembered as proud and strong and our story's will be told for as long as there remain stories to tell, and this will be known as the moment the new history of mankind started, men are you WITH ME ." he would say with a loud and inspirational voice and all around the fleet cheers could be heard and families would hug each other with sadness of what happened to Earth but with hope of a new life among the stars." Year: March, 2108 Location: Novam Domum, command center Alexander Varellion would never have imagined that his life would go this way, from living in a midd class unordinary household to becoming Emperor of the last remaining people of mankind. It had not been an easy journey, first on earth to prove himself and now on Novam Domum to lead his people to glory. Much had been done these last few years. Homes had been established and a number of biodomes had been established and everyone had a home and there was enough food. Yet nothing extraordinary had been done and all until now had been setting up the basics. Now word had come that operation Establishment had been finished. Alexander Varellion now simply known as the emperor spoke up" operation Establishment has come to a success and has finished, commence operation Reclamation" Actions 3 ap: Minerals close to the outpost are searched for and mined. 1 ap: Basic industry is established with a side focus on producing as much Co2 as possible to help with creating an atmosphere, in the future it is possible to decrease the amount of pollution released by the industry but for now it is left uncontrolled.

Colony name: Novam Domum (translated to new home) First planet type: (Mars like) A planet with a bit of desert enviroment bbut like mars with (reltively) modern technology able to be terrafromed into sustainging human life. This would be done through first creating a sort of pollution factory or simply ceate a lot of industry with carbon dioxide enterting the air and creating a atmoshpere. This would enable people to walk outside on Mars without suits and create a blue horizon but would still need to get fresh oxygen material. Next stop would be to plant bacteria or simply trees and other plant life around the planet to create oxygen and after some years have created a habitable planet. (This is based on real research and is possible in the future.) Nation History: The Imperial Republic is a semi-autocratic government created by the refugees of earth from various nationalities that fled from earth with the space ship 'new journey'. Seeing the need of a strong government with a strong leader with a lot of power. Yet the ruler should not turn out to be tyranicall and the citizens should keep power in society. Thus the Imperial Republic was born. There is the senate that works as the legislative branch of the government yet is under the control of the Emperor (the monarch). Furthermore there is the security council that controls the power of the king and checks the government for any kind of corruption and can after an investigation and a neutral public trial depose the emperor. The emperor is a man that gets re-elected every 8 years except if there is a large amount of unrest against the emperor. The emperor can get eleceted indefinetally and has almost complete power over the Imperial Republic. The current emperor is a scientist with clear interest in physical enhancements and other areas of science whilst also being an expert politican and statesman. Before the fall of earth he was a leading expert on many field including Bioligy, geo politcal situations, prototype technology and was considered the new Da Vinci of the era. Some theorise it is he that discovered interstellar travel technology yet he has vemently denied it and it is large implausible and generally denied theory. Race: Humans Race characteristics: Just the usual human characteristics Race History: Humans or more specifically homo sapiens are a race that originally come from the planet earth. Here they were divided into pieces of land ruled by independent governors of the planet. These governors controlled pieces of land that were all almost totally independent. In the beginning of the 22nd century when the sun went supernove several humans were able to escape earth and end up randomly in the galaxy. Location: I send it on Skype

I will send the map tommorow since I am posting this on the ipad and FINALLY someone who knows the amazing lore of warhammer. Though I sadly can't exactly copy the Imperium of mankind I might try and make enhanced humans. p.p.s. This emperor is not an interstellar being of huge psychic power that can grow 12 feet tall and have a huge flaming sword

Username: Robwar80 Skype: Robwar801 Ideas and suggestion ? : Maybe you can give planets that are harder to sustain life another advantage like a high amount of minerals or something else. Colony Name: Novam Domum (translated to New Home) First planet type: (Mars like) A planet with a bit of a desert enviroment but like Mars with (relatively) modern technology able to be terraformed into sustaining human life. There is water though so life is possible. History: The Imperium of man is a combination of people from different nationalities. Race does not matter and all humans are equal in the colony with the only difference differing on merit and potential. Leading the Imperium of man is the emperor of mankind. The Emperor is a man of great abbility and intelligence but with rather unknown and mysterious origins. The colony ship expected themselves to be the only humans left in the galaxy and assumed themselves the quest to make mankind glorious again. Location: we'll organise it later Nation name: Imperium of man Race : Humans Characteristics of the race: we all know it just simply pragmatic, adaptable and cocky humans that we love.

Marcus Hotchen would walk towards the grave thinking of the few encounters he had with the Felsen Watch in Johannesburg and how when he fought the Felsen watch was kept alive and rewarded for being brave and loyal, he would then lay down a bag of 20 minas and repay his debt
