Alright, here`s our very own topic for discussing empire related problems and RP. Conquering tau-23
(non-rp) Calling al TG members to have their traders working. We need 300 mil$ credits and one more member to buy the system.
(rp) Calling Lieutenant Marauder to build the first Imperial TDE Gunboat . I will do the same thing, and with some support units we will start the offensive in tau 23 in order to subdue the Outcasts and the BMM, putting them under the TDE flag. Try to cease all hostilities against the BMM, we don't want bretonian gunboats flying within the home system.
Lord, as per your orders I will make no more raids against the BMM equipment depots. Those fat corporates seem to sticking to their own little corner of the system for now.... rather than bullying in on all the best mineral lodes, as is their usual tactic.
I have some good news.... my brother is sympathetic to our cause and is willing to donate $60m to the Empire. He is a neutral trader, although I believe he may join our glorious ranks at some stage.
(non rp): I am proud to announce that we have gathered 40% of the required sum. We currently have 120 millions out 300. 60 from Onca (thanks a lot) and 60 from me. Keep using your traders!
(rp) Inauguration of the first Imperial Gunboat and Cruiser
The Empire is proud to announce that we officially have one Imperial Cruiser and Gunboat in the Empire. Incredibly strong, offensive of Kusari design, they shall serve us well!
The Dacian Imperial Ship Drobeta

And the Dacian Imperial Destroyer Napoca

Both have been named after old Dacian cities/fortresses.

My lord, I have more good news. My brother Firebrandt has decided to join our glorious Empire. With your permission, he will join as rank Ensign effective immediately. Although he is a trader, he spent many years as a warrior before "hanging up his guns", and I can vouch for his bravery. He has many contacts in the edge worlds where the most lucrative trading is found, and has friends in nearly every base in Sirius. He knows Sirius like the back of his hand... all systems, jump hols, and all the best trading routes.
My brother has also just purchased a large train.... in my opinion his trading skill will serve the empire well by bringing in much needed funds.
BTW he has changed his name back to his birth name: Toscana (he is the eldest child of our family).
Emperor, I feel my young brother may have jumped the gun declaring my joining the Dacian Empire.... what I mean is, he probably should've waited for your permission before announcing it. Forgive him, he's young.
But anyway as he said, yes I have purchased a large train.... although she's not the newest and shiniest in Sirius, she's got the largest cargo hold available..... and she can make point-five past light speed (ha, a joke there).
As my first point of business I have brought some supplies of food, arms and equipment to Java base. My new home.
Liege, please forgive my *older* brother. He has spent many lonely years in the cockpit, just himself for company and being his own master. It will take him time to learn proper respect for his superiors.
