    Not really a bump but since as we\'re going to be a faction i suppose we should share our ships,since i\'m kinda new though excuse the lack of building prowess.

    And a few close-r-ups:

    Not really legit builds since selling L5 ores made me hit the credit cap, i\'ve been /restock_shop-ing for materials.

    Name: HexKor (Will likely choose a more RP-appropriate name once there is a server with RP)

    Caste: I see that we can have up to three castes. When I play, I play mostly as a Harvester, but I can fight as a Warrior too when I need to salvage Pirate Stations. I also enjoy scouting out sectors for more materials to harvest. So I\'d likely be Harvester > Warrior > Scout (Scout is on the bottom because I don\'t scout just to scout, I do it so that I can harvest or kill pirates). Feel free to dump me into whichever you think I\'ll be needed.

    Experience w/ Starmade: Discovered it four days ago, and have been playing non-stop. I explore the fringes of space for resources, build up ships, then hunt pirates. I enjoy building, but functionality comes before cosmetics.

    Have very little PvP experience in StarMade, but I\'m an avid PvPer in other games.

    Experience w/ Systems: Assuming this is the in-game systems, I have tinkered with most of them. I make large, powerful cannons, effective salvage arrays, and missile arrays that can pierce planets longways.

    Name: Prnografk-Papaya (Subject to change pending RP rules)

    Caste: Architect/Warrior

    Experience w/ Starmade: Started playing on Saturday after watching a video from Jamziboy. Been playing non-stop and spent sleepless night building a Phoenix-Class ship and mobile space station. I am an avid builder and commit to projects quite readily, no matter how harsh they may be. I am new to PvP for Starmade but i am an experienced PvPer and regularly do PvP on many other games.

    Experience w/ Systems: Somewhat knowledgable; I looked up all i needed to know on various sites as well as experimenting with systems myself, creating various prototypes.

    Don\'t know how to post an actual image, but meh.
    Something i\'ve been working on most of today. . .
    I\'ve seen Jamziboy\'s Starmade videos it\'s a matter of playing around at the moment though (not sunk in yet), was thinking i should have some interior to any ship i build and i end up building something i can\'t use for the server.
    Perserverence I s\'pose.

    Hey guys, update:

    Hexkor, Accepted as our first Harvester.

    Papaya Accepted as a warrior for now. Will be placed in Architect as spaces open up, but please clean your name up, I\'m fairly certain just \'Papaya\' isn\'t taken yet.

    About Our Ship: I\'ve fallen into a rut in the designing of the Orion -- I REALLY don\'t want to do the Outer Hull; like the idea of doing it is giving me spikes of Procrastination, but I can\'t release it, unfinished because it has 1 block seperating all the lovely things inside the ship and the cold vaccuum of antimatter bullets and Missiles.

    About a Server: No Luck yet, uping my reward for a 10 slot Build Server to a place in the Admiralty -- this sh*t\'s imperativo. No Server to play on, no body to play with, no Faction to be working and growing.

    About The Caste: If I keep getting Warriors I\'m going to start making them maintain two ships, and merge the Warrior and the Harvester Class, guys we\'re going to a server with nerfed Pirate drops WE NEED TO MINE STUFF TO MAKE MONEY. We\'re not going to be able to crack open a Pirate Station for 1000 L5 Awesomonium and be set, we\'re going to have to mine.

    About other plans and ambitions: Once we find a live server (a place where we\'re not on our own) We\'re going to build a Planet-wide City on an Ice World -- and that will become our Hub. From there we\'ll expand into two fleets -- have two Admiralty Councils; The Defense Council, and the Expeditionary Council (IE what we are now), and have a central government. At that point we\'ll rename to Crucia, and we will be a people who are known for their hard work and fierce defenders (Warriors Hooah!). At least that\'s the plan.

    Do we have an emblem created yet? If we are going to be a good faction we need a symbol so people know who we are when they see one of our ships!

    Name: KrazyKat

    Caste: Warrior, Scout, or Architect

    Experience w/ Starmade: active member for 3 weeks, I\'ve learned all the basics for shipbuilding and combat. survived numerous large battles and once singlehandedly destroyed and opposing faction with my Carrier Athena-Class.

    Experience w/ Systems: have built space stations and dreadnoughts, which require many modules and weapons systems, most of mine end up successful. Turrets are my only problem because they don\'t like to fire sometimes when I need them to.

    if chosen as Warrior or scout:

    here is a link to an album for my prized Frigate, the BRS_Final. I will rename it for this faction to the BRS_CVZ. It is a light frigate just over a mass of 285, thus not a Corvette, however it has a decent cannon and 4 lock-on missile pods.

    has a thrust of 531

    shields: 14475 with 777 regen per/second

    it is so heavy because it is covered in Hardened Hull, if you wish I rather ran a Corvette I could change it all to normal and drop the weight to necessary levels.



    If chosen as architect:

    my Athena-Class Carrier is my prized ship, named the Romanov, it is the example I give of my shipbuilding capabilities, it is a Carrier able to hold a small corvette or 3 FACS, and from 10 to 13 turrets, depending on the layout here is the album: http://imgur.com/a/4rERb#4



    and I finish with a quote, from the best Space Scavenger there ever was:

    \"I aim to misbehave\"



    EDIT: I notice you have no merchants yet, I will also apply for merchant position IF I can use the Firefly ship Bench made =). I will edit it with blue hull and more storage.

    Sounds like a plan. Sucks that we don\'t have a server yet, but I\'m looking forward to it.

    Salvage ALL the stations and ship corpses!

    Name: Commander_Error (Here & Ingame)

    Caste: Steward, preferably of a larger ship. I\'m not too great a pilot.

    Experience w/ Starmade: A fair bit, but I\'ve no clue how crafting and manufacturing work.

    Experience w/ Systems: Ship system? Good, again excepting manufacturing. I can brush up on that, though.

    Commander Error and KrazyKat for applying, but at this moment we\'re currently full until we can secure a server (if we get a private server, we\'ll recruit up to full slots). Also

    ADMIRALTY POSITION OPENINGS FOR:

    Private Server Provider (For building and organizing).

    And

    A Webmaster (Someone who will make, maintain, and administer a faction forum through Enjin, Shivtr or other Guild Website services.)

    I ask that anyone who would like to take up these duties message me privately.

    Secondly,

    I\'m considering changing our coloration and hosting a little contest amongst us for our symbol -- also thinking about tossing the backstory out and grabbing another one that doesn\'t have us \'finding\' our shitty flagship drifting in space.

    I\'m also going to begin the THIRD itteration at an attempt for our flagship, this time I\'m going to make it symmetrical (the lazy way), and hopefully build it prettier.

    Lastly, I\'ll be remaking the thread, with a new name, and more information, and hopefully better organization. I\'ll whisper all our current members with the link.



    Stay connected, stay Ahead

    that\'s fine, can I just be in a reserved position for now? maybe participate in ship-building logo contests still? Also Blue is an easy color to use since we have ice crystals and blue light and hulls.



    one more thing, here is a primary merchant ship idea, the base ship is made by Bench : http://www.benchminecraft.com/starmade.html



    but I\'ve modified it with our colors and some decals:

    The ship looks really good it just have to modify it using blue and make it a bit bigger for more storage. Merchants can have a corvette. I think we should use it also.

    oh, it is huge actually, very roomy inside and can hold tons of storage crates

    also looks great, could be one of our model ships that we show off if we would use it. I decorated it a bit

    because the creator made it for asthetics, there is some empty spaces inside I\'m trying to find all of them and fill them with more modules and engines.

    @ Raider; that\'s great but I wish you\'d have messaged me first because there are things that I\'m making plans to alter. Primarily our coloration and our Faction Name. Message me, and work out the details with me, or I won\'t be awarding the position, especially when the website was made so quickly and effortlessly (I know Enjin is easy, but I\'m not going to give an Admiralty position for 5 minutes of effort). You\'ll be expected to maintain, moderate, and administrate the website, which will be easier on both of us if we have our expectations said first, not after.

    @ Krazy; it looks good, but I\'d prefer we build our own ships from scratch, and develop our own ship style, than adapt several popular ships. Having a Mish-mash fleet doesn\'t give us a nice silouhette. I\'ll be working with the Architects we have to come with design aspects of our ships.
