News:
Due to the rising number of factions and the player count at large, OAS infrastructure(which includes ranks, discord communications, task assignment, and other various things that keep us going) is currently straining under the pressure. Due to this, Google documents are starting to be used, to keep track of all the things going on, and to ensure the smooth running operation of OAS.
The latest development from this is the OAS cooperation act of 2016, which states that the three main factions whom currently are Infinite Legion, Dread Syndicate, and Dovan Empire are to cooperate closer together, assisting each other directly instead of having to ask OAS at large for help.
Some of the things in this first act for OAS are the following:
Factions included in this act will:
l. Move their operative bases (Homebase) to the same sector as the pre defined sector in this act
ll: Assume the roles assigned to them, and specialize in that particular role.
lll: Continue to support other factions who wish to join this act.
This is a small step for all factions included in this act, and a major step for OAS.
Dread Syndicate has been assigned the role of Foundries, they are to be the industry might of OAS, providing designs, blueprints, titans, blocks, and other industry related items to the rest of the alliance.
Dovan empire has been assigned the task of Mining operations, they are to oversee the mining operations of OAS and ensure a steady flow of items continues to flood in, they are critical to the success of Dread Syndicate Foundries, currently operating under Max load.
And finally, Infinite legion has been assigned the task of Fleet, they are to man the ships produced by Dread Syndicate with their massive array of players.
This act does not state that these factions must shut down other operations to focus directly on just what they have been assigned, rather, to focus on the task more so then other operations.
In other news, Dread Syndicate has made a full recovery from their stagnation (fucking finally), the increase in activity is in part due to the consistent yelling that members are getting from their commander (Zackey_TNT) reports indicate that continued use of "Heresy" and "That is heretical" are super effective.
Their homebase is nearing completion, and their first titan in six months "Ragnarok" has finally been completed and spawned.
Infinite legion has consumed more proxy factions, and is now upto a total player count of over 70 with their manpower, it is unlikely that we will see a shift in power between OAS and the rest of the competition any time soon.
Infinite legion recovered a pirate boss yesterday, from the pirate boss homebase, reports say that bobby stated later on that, "You can't use that on the server its over the limits" Many sad faces where seen that day.
Dovan empire's continued spam of drones in the form of lawn mowers is met with a raid by Thryn monarchy drones, Dovan Empire report ably loses 2 ships cleaning up what appears to be massive creepers from minecraft. It is unknown at this time if the drone wars will stop, dovan empire stats that "Spam will continue!"
A major dispute between the definition of heresy between Lord Sidonus and Zackey_TNT broke out, threats where layed to declare war on infinite legion from Dread Syndicate, stating that, infinite legion had committed heresy.
It was soon after resolved with a super long, and super gay discussion on the meaning of life, what the machine spirit, and why we exist.
(Non joking version)
A major dispute between LordSidonus and Zackey_TNT broke out after LordSidonus drilled holes into the side of the newly created Ragnarok Class Titan via heatseekers when OAS was raiding thryn's base, threats where layed to declare war on infinite legion from Dread Syndicate, stating that, if we ever see another hole made by an infinite legion ship, it will be the end of this alliance.
It was soon after resolved when LordSidonus and Zackey_TNT sat down to discuss why they had refounded OAS, why lord sidonus had fired heat seekers in the mits of a battle, and why they where currently allies, Loyalty towards each other was soon restored, and plans layed out to expand beyond the game star made where made.
It was later discussed that a request was given to clear the sector and that, the intention was to hit white lancer , whom was godmoded and sitting in a titan NEXT to the thryn homebase, something an admin should never do.
After this event, a new resolve was found to reform OAS, under the newly founded trust and loyalty between the two.
The reform is planned to take place in the next couple of days, using Google documents, many plans have been layed out to structure and document how things are done in OAS, and to continue to be transparent in the operations of OAS to other factions whom OAS consist of.
These reforms will be a major thing for OAS, unlike the previous one, this includes the complete documentation of how OAS runs, why it exists, and what to do when a dispute is made. You can compare this massive task to the founding of the good o'l usa, while not as large scale, the text amount is roughly the same.
Why? Because plans currently layed out state that after a certain amount of time passes, starmade will be abandoned in favor of larger games, such as planet side 3, SWTOR and Star Citizen and thus, the reform is intended to put in place the structure to be followed in every game we play.
More news:
The main post has been updated to include the factions we failed to mention earlier.
Operations against The Turkish bards have come to a full halt as dovan empire and Turkish bards continue to spam drones at eachother, failing to actually cause major loses, and actually have a fleet battle.
Infinite legion has allowed The Turkish Bards one week of time where they will not attack, proclaiming they wish to have an actual challenge from them.
Dread Syndicate has stated that it did not agree to this, and that, it will continue to move against them.
Dovan Empire continues to make great progress in tech, improving their designs greatly, to the point where most of their ships are able to compete with older designs from infinite legion.
Videos are currently in progress, and should be out soon, including the battle of DUC which will be from zack's point of view.
Even more news:
Operations on shattered skies officially end, as the server is too unstable, its admins are too abusive, and the combined membership of OAS declared, that it gave little fucks for moving anywhere else.
Dovan empire are massive trolls, and fool the entire discord into thinking they are actually butthurt about something, prompting Zackey to promote the discord's master troll to Admin status, it was not long before we had more roles then we could count and all of miraaks non important messages had magically gone poof.
austinator13 is to blame.
This wall of text brought to you by the combined membership of OAS from a google document, have a good day.
