The Order of Revan - OCC

[Caine]

Uhh I'll take your word for it on the worlds, trying to find anything on the map on here makes my eyes hurt, expansion wise I'd suggest going way south and then expanding along the edge of wild space. Nobody out that way has a large fleet most of the planet have very limited space faring ability entirely and are way below us in tech.

So effectively we could easily expand out across those worlds with very little resistance to us and with no substantial threats around us, all the major empires are busy picking fights with each other so we'd have a safe base that they'd never have any reason to go near and should be able to find a system with a few populated worlds to begin from that also has plenty of asteroids to mine so we can build and expand without threat from the major factions.
I would suggest making the bases underground though so that it's defensible and very very hard to find if anyone we don't like passes through.

I would also suggest, find a large ship and strip it's inside to make a mobile base. Add a refinery, workshops, training areas, hangars and so on. essentially turn it into a crusader base so we can just go from planet to planet out on the edge of the wildlands and just deploy from the ship to set up bases and do missions on the worlds, the ship will construct the structures and defenses to set down a base on each new world.

I'd expect wildlands area to be thick with pirates and slavers as well, so we could pick them off 1 by 1 to acquire a fleet to help us defend that ground, though we'd need to be able to set up a shipyard somewhere for maintenance which we'd need to find a bigger faction to help us with or pick up a bunch of engineers who know how to construct one then find a nice ore rich asteroid belt to build it in where it'll be hidden and we can strip the asteroids for all the ore we need.

(( Think UNSC infinity from Halo 4 if you played it. Obviously not as big though. ))

 

[Braden]

Any ideas on a ship both cannon and non cannon?

I will look into a new system at lunch.

 

[Caine]

Not really, anything reasonably big works. Maybe a frigate class ship.

I recommend the Sujimis sector, 4 planets and a moon that has several native populations one of which is advanced and space faring, a heavy slaver population and plenty of raw resources right on the edge of wild space and between it's various worlds we have plenty of space for all kinds of missions.

Alzoc 3 is extremely rich in resources and has a good sized population that as far as I can tell are not hostile that we can easily work with and probably set up settlements or bases on the world no problem and since we're small we can use mining methods that won't damage the world as well. Population is the Talz same as Plutonia.

Karazak is a slaver capital so plenty of smaller ships coming in and out that we can swipe and slaves to rescue who can then join us. We could make a whole mission pack of that maybe even 2-3 going from hitting ships to build our fleet right up to hitting slaver bases to remove them that'd give us lots of ships and people as well as all the loot the slavers had in terms of weapons and other gear and any slavers who agree to join us, we can use the force to pick out those who we can trust and they're experienced ship crews and wipe out the rest.
Probably has some repair facilities in place too for the slavers ships.

Maryx Minor which is an abandoned volcanic world so I'd guess we can find plenty of mineral rich ores on that world but it's not suitable for inhabiting so we'd need to use droids to handle that.

Ordo Plutonia an ice world with the native Talz population, they just want to be left alone so should be possible to establish peaceful relations with them and maybe draw some recruits from them if any wish to leave the homeworld.

And finally the moon Pantora which has a space faring nations that was with the Galactic Republic in the clonewars. But it's way outside any factions territory now by the map on here so in theory we should be able to establish a relationship with them, they're democratic and humanoid.

[Braden]

Sounds great just had a little look over this myself and seems to fit great. Probably looking to set up our home base on the planet Alzoc 3, maybe make up a smugglers base in the ice mountains we can work from.

I will look to set up some missions for a full relocation, adjust the Arda mission and start it tonight once I get in. I will also look at a ship as well.

If anyone else has any thoughts on the relocation please speak up. I know a few of you may be asleep though but I wont start it till 8-9pm GMT so should give you some time.

 

[Caine]

Cool, yeah I think Dante himself will stay occupied dealing with Karazak, a well entrenched population of multiple organized slaver guilds. That's going to be great for a few missions chains starting with knocking off the odd ship coming in, then establishing forward bases then hitting them in force to drive them out.
Just Dante's kind of job, lots and lots of fighting :).

Maybe a Siren assault frigate?
http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/index.php?threads/siren-class-assault-frigate.49784.

Comes with large fighter bays and a bay for armored ground vehicles as well. Might be worth contacting KES, they should have no problem selling to us so we could get a modified one made for the base then get standard models to go with it for security as well as all the armored vehicles and fighters to fill them until we get a facility built up for us to build our own.
A few of them would be perfect for us for deploying to new worlds with air and ground support available and fighting off any pirates or slavers who pick a fight.

 

[Braden]

Only problem is we have hardly any funds at the moment only really working off what its members bring with them and local help. So I think finding/reclaiming a ship would be a better bet for us, we can then build it up to what we want. The EVE Online ship Stratios looks pretty good, could write up a tech post for it.

 

[Caine]

Tech applications are being closed down soon so you'd have to hurry.

But getting the frigates could wait till after we've hit Alzac and started on the slavers? We can probably make a deal with KES providing raw materials to them from Alzac and we should get a pretty good sum of money from hitting the slavers as well.

I could talk to them and see what they think if you want while you put in the Stratios. Maybe as an option to produce a small fleet for us in the future.

 

[Valatrux]

Tattoine? Lol, let me look at the galactic map and read up on planets. Perhaps use the old rebe base on hoth?

 

[Caine]

Little bit well known for secret bases aren't they?

Reusing a base that Sith, Jedi and Rebels all know about is risky and Tattoine is very close to the smugglers run so is visited a lot, we'd get spotted in no time.

KES currently only has one of them in stock, and it's the only ship they own. They also don't have the capacity to produce more.

 

[Richie B.]

If your looking for ships just take some from the Imperium since your organization is within the Imperium you can sneak into one of their ships and take it.

Keep in mind though that you need to get that approved through their FL.

 

[Richie B.]

Their FL is a cool guy you wont have to worry much about getting approval.

 

[Outlander]

Mhm. Just something that needs to be done before you can get a ship.

 

[Caine]

Uhhh. Have to find the right model of ship first and that'll take forever.

 

[Braden]

@Valatrux I realised never answered your question on the Lore Master, he is in a sense our historian and would work closely with the Force Master to study and further our knowledge in the force.

 

[Valatrux]

I'd love to be that then considering all Ivery been reading is the lore around Revan myself lately

 

[Braden]

The only thing is I don't think Val as a character is up for it only being a minimal force user and not spending much time training. Think Jedi Archivist.

 

[Valatrux]

But the fact being we are all limited except xanthus, it would all be about progression sure I'm low level now but overtime it would become a more fitting role. It's not like our grandmaster isn't comparatively weak to others, it's the fact that you do your part as your rank. The training and all that comes with time, Braden won't always be able to get beat up by every other Jedi and sith similar to Val, but as of right now Xanthus is the only person that if we base this off experience that deserves any rank. But like I'm saying we shouldn't solely base it off that. Because me you and dante were the first three we should maintain some sort of rank above others.

 

[Xan]

I believe that the main problem is not so much experience as an ability to perform the duty. If the Lore Master is supposed to work alongside the Force Master in matters regarding the Force, then the Lore Master should be someone knowledgeable in the Force as well. As is, no one in the organization has the necessary qualifications (except for Xanthus, but I'm not including him in the discussion at the moment). I believe that this is why Braden has the positions being filled by NPCs, because currently no one truly meets the qualifications and you would honestly rather have NPCs fulfill a role rather than someone who does not have the skill set as of yet. My personal recommendation is that if you want to be Lore Master, then IC you should focus Valatrux on Force-based issues. Essentially grooming yourself for the title in preparation for the time in which you will be worthy of it IC. As far as I can see, the positions aren't going anywhere and Valatrux and Caine will have first pick of positions anyway, so it's not like there is not time.

On another note, I am reminded that I joined the Order partially for Xanthus to train the members of the Order. I'd like to start getting a feel for stuff that people would like to be trained in, if that's something that can be done.
