The Aethi Imperium //Now recruiting!\\

[Master_Artificer]

Okay everyone, go upstairs, grownups are fighting.

 

[Zackey_TNT]

I think I liked you a lot better when you were server-side only. You act like you hate faction shitflinging, but you constantly try to cause and encourage it.

 

[RhinoCorn]

Looks like he was being honest to me. Somethings refreshing after reading through these P.C. forums.

 

[Planr]

The snowflakes sure are shining in this winter wonderland of faction politics.

 

[Ithirahad]

Introducing the newest addition to the Aethi fleet lineup: the Velkaaras-class Medium Salvage Vessel! Fitting its name, which means "Extractor" in the language of the Aethi, the Velkaaras comes fitted with a larger, more powerful salvage array than the Kaier-Verien-class Light Salvage Ship, as well as relatively powerful beam arrays to get out of tough spots. While the systems are still being refined and optimized, the first Velkaaras-class Salvage Vessel will begin construction in the Aethi starbase soon.

(With the upcoming addition of the revolutionary Shipyard system to StarMade, refitting these and other vessels will be drastically easier, facilitating earlier ship releases. Soon, unforeseen issues can be identified in initial field tests and resolved without requiring complete deconstruction and the filling of a new blueprint item.)

Accepted, though to be completely honest I have absolutely no idea where in the Nine Realms to put you. You applied to be a pilot or miner, but your skills fit the description for an engineer... I'll put you down as pilot for now.

At the time, we're still getting resources together and the systems on the smaller ships aren't completely done currently. :P
It's now a priority to get some of those complete and flying, though.

Jumper11550

Requested Position(s):
Engineer, Miner

Why I want to join:
I would like to take a dive into MP Starmade the Aethi Imperium seems like a good fit for my interests. I enjoy building things (particularly involving logic) and would like to do so in a co-operative environment.

Short information about me (Sci-Fi series or movies you enjoy, previous games played, etc.): I'm a pretty big fan of most space opera sci-fi I come across. Current favorites include Schlock Mercenary and Drive (both web-comics). I've got moderate-extensive experience in Minecraft, both with large projects and with redstone, which will translate well here. I also do alot of tabletop RP and would enjoy participating on that in this faction if it's of interest.

"From the land of Aethis, we are the Aethi, united."

Citizen of Starmade, welcome to the glorious Aethi Imperium.

SPECIALIZATIONS​

• Leadership:
  • RULER
    The ruler of the Imperium, who goes by the Aethi title of Kaalima, which translates roughly to "overlord." The Kaalima also acts as Lord Admiral (Admiral Supreme) of the Aethi Star Navy.
    • This position is filled by Ithirahad for the forseeable future.
  • COUNCIL MEMBER/ADMIRAL
    A Council Member of the Aethi Imperial Council, who acts as an adviser to the Kaalima, and does lower administrative duties. Council Members can also act as admirals of the Aethi Star Navy, and, for the sake of simplicity (this is a game, after all), the two titles can be considered equivalent. Ambassadors for the Imperium, with the title of Vielas (meaning "Representative" in Aethi), are also effectively given this rank.
    • Please note that this position is reserved for trusted members of the Imperium, probably those who Ithirahad knows well.
• Aethi Star Navy:
  • PILOT
    Self-explanatory. As a Pilot, you fly starships, and fight in the name of the Aethi Imperium.
    
    • PILOT COMMANDER
      Pilots who have proved their worth in battle may be promoted to the rank of Pilot Commander. These elite pilots fly the capital starships of the Imperium, and lead fleets in large-scale engagements.
  • ENGINEER
    As a member of the Engineering division for the Aethi Star Navy, you are responsible for creating and maintaining the fleet of starships that is the core of Aethi military might.
    
    • ARCHITECT
      Architects are essentially hull designers.
      
    • SYSTEMS ENGINEER
      Systems engineers are responsible for the inner workings of the fleet - Offensive, defensive, and core systems.
    (Note: An engineer may hold one or both of these positions.)
  • (Other roles, such as that of an Aethi Marine, may appear as game mechanics allow for them.)
• Other:
  • MINER
    Also self-explanatory. Miners fly mining vessels, and mine resources for the Imperium.
  • TRADER
    Traders sell products, obtain money, and buy necessary materials. Traders may also transport cargo, run factory facilities, and do various other economy-related tasks.
    
    
  • (Other roles, such as that of an explorer, may appear as game mechanics allow for them)

RULES​

General:

• No flaming, offensive and/or excessive trolling, etc. Basically, don't be an ass.
• No arbitrary raiding or destruction of other factions' or players' possessions or territory. Any attacks on others which are not provoked must be agreed upon by Imperial leadership.
  (If the Imperium is attacked first, then that is to be considered an act of war, and dealt with accordingly.)
  
• Do not claim territory without permission unless there is a very, VERY good reason to do so.
  (Temporary claims for mining are allowed, just make sure to un-claim the system before it starts draining faction points.)

Building:

• Ships built for use in Aethi Stellar Navy operations should generally follow the Aethi color scheme and design style, though there may be exceptions. Aside from the rule below, there are no restrictions on ships for personal or unofficial use, but I ask that you please, PLEASE use wedges (If not tetras and pentas) where applicable.
• No "Doom Boxes," period. Borg cubes may be tolerated, if they're fully greebled and have a large and detailed interior, but don't slap some green circuits and black hull on a giant system cube and call it a Borg cube - That's not what Borg cubes are; that's an armored doomcube. The only exception to this rule is system prototypes and starter salvaging ships.

Username (ingame): Kave

Requested Position(s): Engineer

Why I want to join: I like being in groups, uniformity, and doing things right. It seems like you guys do too.
I used to have many pictures of my single-player creations, but I recently was in a snafu that required me to reinstall windows and format my hard drive, multiple times.

Short information about me (Sci-Fi series or movies you enjoy, previous games played, etc.): I like star trek, not star wars very much though. FTL is one of my favorite games.

Accepted; we will probably be in need of a good engineer soon. As for the singleplayer thing... Do what I did and install Starmade on the cloud. Full portability, and it doesn't die even if your computer does. (I used OneDrive; Google Drive works nicely as well.)

 

[Ithirahad]

The new Aethi corvette, the Arveth(Paladin)-class, is currently in field testing on the test server. It will (hopefully) become available to Aethi pilots within the next two weeks.

(And yes, this is a front view. That dish is a weapons array, not a main thruster.)
