Our Utopian race is located on our capital world of Secura in the Viare system positioned on the northwestern, outer ring of the galaxy.

[image]http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/7127/secu03.jpg[/image]

Galaxy Profile: As you can see in the images above, our home world is located in the upper right corner of sector C2 with additional mining operations extending into D2. Our main and initial interest is exploring the cluster of systems located to the southwest of us. We have deemed that exploration of the nearby supernova is too risky and will be avoided for the time being. This applies for the surrounding nebulae clouds as well. We will reevaluate our exploration strategy once these initial systems are fully explored.

System Profile: Composed of 10 planets and 9 moons, the Viare system has some valuable resources, including a planet that can be colonized. 1) The closest planet to our sun is a fairly small continental planet (just 10K bigger than our capital moon), but has no discernible resources. We still plan on colonizing this planet right away. 2) Viare 2 is a volcanic planet containing Aculon (52%) and Emeros Crystal (67). We are already mining a source of Aculon, but have no Emeros Crystal so it could be valuable considering that's the only resource we know of. 3) Viare 3 is a tiny barren rock planet with Steel (92%), but we're already mining plenty of steel at the moment. 4) Viare 4 is a dead gas giant planet containing four moons, including our capital. Unfortunately, there are no resources between the four of these moons, but one of them is an uninhabited desert moon that we plan on colonizing after Viare 1 (since it's smaller). 5) Viare 5 consists of another useless gas giant with a useless ocean moon and a barren rock moon containing Lead (49%). We won't need the lead just yet. 6) Viare 6 contains a ringed gas giant currently being mined of Caslon (67%) and Hydrogen (81%) as well as a volcanic moon being mined of Osalia (85%) and Aculon (72%). 7) Viare 7 is an ice planet containing Tyderios (59%) and Jakanta Ivory (59%), both of which are valuable since we don't have either. 8) Viare 8 is another dead, frozen gas giant. 9) Twin to Viare 8, Viare 9 is also a useless frozen gas giant, but unlike its twin it has an ice moon with traces of Vodkol (24%). Another valuable resource. 10) We come to the edge of our wonderful galaxy at Viare 10, an ice planet containing Tyderios (64%) and Terallion Down (32%). Its tiny, barren rock moon also has Lead (89%).

The one other system we have knowledge of is Wayland system. It's 8 planets and 10 moons have some important resources like Silicon, Wiconium, Terallion Down, and Vodkol, but more importantly Wayland 1 is a desert planet containing two of those resources. We hope to colonize this planet as soon as possible as our mining facility already located there tells us it's quite a pleasant place to live. The other mining facility is located on the frozen gas giant of Wayland 5, giving us Argon (35%), Krypton (38%) and Helium (55%).

Planet Profile: The marshy swamp moon of our capital, Secura, is home to some 2.5 billion of our people and will likely grow substantially with all taxes being cut to fill its borders so that we may prepare for expansion into the unknown. We have also dismissed all of our troops on the planet to make up for any losses we may incur initially. The Securans are a peaceful race anyway and hope to stay that way. Our first three projects there will be colony ships to get the three habitable planets we know of up and running as quickly as possible. Our medium space port will have the job of creating a fleet of frigates to protect us from any hostilities we may encounter. Our construction ships will be assigned to Viare 7 and Viare 10 for the valuable luxury resources located there.

To the unknown!

2754.02.14 - Our exploration ship Viare Starway indicates that the nearest star, AQ269, has nothing of interest. Its next target is a main sequence star towards the center of our sector.

2754.04.14 - Our four frigates have finished and will be standing by to react to any threats. We our building another exploration ship to explore the regions to the east of us.

2754.04.22 - Just in time too as we got word of a pirate escort ship attacking our mining platform at Wayland 5. Alpha fleet has been dispatched to the location.

2754.04.24 - Another attack at Wayland 1, thankfully an escort was already there patrolling the planet. Hopefully it'll hold out until help arrives.

2754.05.27 - We're getting attacked in our home system now! These pirates must be nearby.

2754.06.09 - We've gotten word that although the escort around Wayland 1 chased off the pirate escort, the damage it sustained makes it a floating duck until it's fixed. We've split off a part of our fleet to guard it until help arrives.

2754.06.19 - Unfortunately, Viare Starway has turned up another dud of a system. It will be moving out to another main sequence star.

[image]http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/8899/secu06.jpg[/image]

2754.06.28 - Our newly commissioned exploration ship, the Sneaky Wayfarer will be heading out to the systems to the northeast of us. We're hoping to find the pirate base and get rid of them quickly as attacks on our own system is unacceptable. We also hope they're not holed up in one of the nebulae clouds nearby.

2754.06.30 - Yet another attack on a mining base in our own system. Our Alpha fleet will be arriving shortly, but it may be too late.

2754.07.13 - An attack on Wayland 5, thankfully we have a fleet standing by to react.

2754.07.15 - There must be at least two or three different pirate factions attacking us as another showed up to attack Wayland 1. The good news is that we just barely saved the mining base at Viare 6.

2754.08.24 - We've decided to invest in energy technology for better shields and drives for our ships after completing the three colony ships. Secura is at 4.6 billion people and still rising. All pirate threats have been since taken care of, though we lost the mining platform at Wayland 5.

2754.10.14 - The pirates known as the Fierce Bandits have contacted us to enter into a protection arrangement, but we decline.

[image]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/7449/secu08.jpg[/image]

2755.01.03 - A year after our foray into the unknown, we are doing relatively well, having for the most part contained the pirate threat. A slew of energy research stations are being constructed on our populous capital while the newly colonized desert world of Wayland 1 is constructing a small space port. We have also discovered a new habitable continental world in the newly explored Benslurahk system to the west of us as well as ruins on the ice planet of Benslurahk 4 that revealed a galactic message. The Sneaky Wayfarer has also discovered the hideout of the Fierce Bandits, which we hope to dispose of this year. With almost 7 billion on our capital world (a gain of over 4 billion in one year!) our economy is set to explode once it reaches its limit. Our medium space port is brimming with activity too with private enterprises set on exploiting the riches of the vast unknown.




Gertjan -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/10/2010 12:20:35 PM)

Wow very detailed. Nice screenshots btw.




Nephrinn -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/10/2010 2:02:22 PM)

2755.01.11 - Two important projects have been scheduled to start off the new year. First, our newly colonized desert moon and neighbor around Viare 4 dubbed Chimera will be building a bunch of high tech research stations. Similarly, Hydra, formerly known as Viare 1, will be building industrial research stations. We hope these early investments will give us a head start on the ever important technological race.

2755.02.16 - The Viare Starway has finished its exploration of the Benslurahk system and is setting off on a long trek across sector B2 for the first of four clustered star systems. The Sneaky Wayfarer is also setting off on its next target due to the pirate threat in the Thaungl system.

[image]http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/2959/secu09.jpg[/image]

Benslurahk System Profile: Containing 5 planets and 3 moons, the Benslurahk system is a relatively quiet and uninteresting system. 1) The closest planet is made up of barren rock and is rich in Steel (66%) and Gold (68%). 2) The second planet should make for a good home for our people as it's a good size, has resources (lead and steel), and has two resource rich moons (iridium, steel, lead, and gold). 3) Far out in the outer system resides a tiny ice planet rich in Tyderios (66%). 4) This ice planet would normally be not much use with its smattering of Tyderios (21%) if it weren't for the Granite Archives located there. Perhaps it'll become a popular tourist spot one day? 5) Another rather large ice planet containing Tyderios (34%) with a tiny barren rock moon containing Steel (36%) and Lead (87%).

2755.04.29 - We found 5219 credits after defeating the pirates in the Thaungl system, which is very helpful. The Fierce Bandits are no more!

2755.06.19 - The Bloody Storm Ravagers continue to try and intimidate us into paying them to protect us. They have yet to convince us that we should.

2755.06.29 - The Viare Starway has completed its exploration of the Nainath system, a rather odd system containing but 1 planet and 3 moons. The planet is a lime green frozen gas giant containing Argon (69%) and Krypton (52%) while its moons contain an abundance of steel, iron, lead, gold, and iridium.

2755.09.12 - The Sneaky Wayfarer encountered an abandoned ship orbiting around an oddly ringed ice planet on the fringes of the Yschaloesis system. We took control of the ship and found millions of Atuuks in hibernation as well as a message pointing to the "Gloom" system in sector E6. Hmm.....

[image]http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/5760/6a00d8341c5d9653ef01156.jpg[/image]

2755.09.26 - Not long after the discovery of the abandoned ship (which is inbound to refuel at Wayfarer 1 where its fate will be decided thereafter), the Sneaky Wayfarer completed its exploration of the Yschaloesis system and what a system it is. 13 planets and 12 moons, containing a whole host of valuable resources. This system will likely become a very important mining hub. Meanwhile, the Sneaky Wayfarer sets off across sector E1 to an orange-yellow star.

2755.11.11 - Our first attack by pirates in over a year hits the outlying mining base of Viare 10. Our fleet in the same system is quickly dispatched.

2755.12.08 - Show is over. A futile attempt by the pirates.

[image]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/4852/secu10.jpg[/image]

2756.01.08 - The yearly news report is quite optimistic, with a small space port being completed at Wayland 1 and our capital moon of Secura hitting a max of 14.5 billion people and raking in a GDP of 203K alone. Unfortunately, not all is well with there being a severe shortage in polymer, putting a hold on many projects as well as too much demand for steel creating hiccups along the way. This can be attributed to the 15+ private ships being commissioned at the Secura space port. We actually have a construction ship weeks away from getting started on a mining base on the ocean moon LB221 circling around Thangl 3 that has polymer as well as dilithium crystal and questurian skin, both very valuable resources. Hopefully, it gets completed this year. A colony ship will be getting started soon at Secura to colonize the planet at Benslurahk while the colony ship filled with sleeping Atuuks orbits around Wayland 1 waiting for its next destination.




Erik Rutins -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/10/2010 2:48:44 PM)

Excellent AAR so far!




Grotius -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/10/2010 4:00:29 PM)

Yes, keep it coming!




Nephrinn -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/11/2010 1:06:18 AM)

2756.02.12 - The Viare Starway has completed its exploration of the Segresoneus system containing 3 planets and 1 moon. The ice planet of Segresoneus 2 with its Tyderios, Terallion Down, and Vodkol could be useful, but is otherwise uninteresting. The Starway will continue on to the third of the clustering of stars.

[image]http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/7424/secu11.jpg[/image]

2756.03.24 - Both the Viare Starway and Sneaky Wayfarer complete their explorations of the Virmeude system and Arthas system (pictured above). It's unfortunate that Virmeude and Arthas contain only trace elements of the standard elements. Viare Starway will continue on to the final four of a clustering of stars (a white one this time) and the Sneaky Wayfarer will head into sector F1 towards an orange star. Hopefully they find something habitable this time.

[image]http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/2523/secu12.jpg[/image]

2756.04.08 - You can see from the image above the privately owned Solemn Quest about to take the first real step outside of our territory to mine at Yschaloesis 6, which contains Hydrogen, Caslon (in high demand!), Helium, and Argon. The element rich Yschalosesis system will likely see much more activity in the coming years.

2756.04.30 - The Viare Starway has turned up nil on the final white star of the cluster and will be headed southeast towards a giant red star.

2756.05.24 - The mining base on the moon of Viare 6 comes under attack by a frigate class pirate ship. Our fleet scrambles into action.

2756.06.19 - The pirates have been taken care of with minimal losses and the Viare Starway has turned up another dud of a system that has just 1 planet with common resources. It'll be heading to a nearby yellow star next.

[image]http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/2572/secu13.jpg[/image]

2756.08.17 - The Iron Moon Outlaws base has been found around Cuthbert 3 in the system the Viare Starway is currently exploring. The system is so far away that we don't want to commit our fleet to their threat just yet, but we may have to if a habitable planet is discovered nearby. We'd like to increase the size of our fleet first.

2756.09.04 - We've made our first discovery in habitation with the Enhanced Life Support LS-200! This means that we can build more efficiently.

2756.09.22 - We've decided to make the tough decision to send the Viare Starway home to refuel.

2756.10.11 - The Sneaky Wayfarer has completed its exploration of the Pinra system, composed of a volcanic planet orbiting closely to its sun and three other gas giants. It could be a useful mining system later, but nothing of use for us now. The Wayfarer is getting low on fuel, but it's going to attempt the exploration of one more system first.

2756.11.26 - The Sneaky Wayfarer immediately hit a dud and will be returning to refuel.

[image]http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/8162/secu14.jpg[/image]

2757.01.01 - A relatively quiet year thanks to the backup in demand of polymer still creating all kinds of problems. In fact, our construction ship building the base to mine the polymer NEEDS polymer to finish construction. This drought was likely caused by the huge investment into research facilities and complicated by all the privately owned ships in queue. Most if not all of the research facilities have finished and it seems like the flow of polymer and other goods in demand will settle down this year. The good news is that we finally have a colony ship en route to Benslurahk 2. We are also about to make key discoveries in shields, armor, hyper drive, and computing.




Nephrinn -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/11/2010 3:57:40 AM)

2757.02.02 - We've made a discovery in shields with the Talassos AR5, meaning our shields go from 240 to 280 and regenerate faster! We plan on retrofitting our fleets with this new technology right away.

2757.03.26 - The Viare Starway has finished refueling and will be heading out on a long journey to a yellow star south of the Iron Moon Outlaws stronghold.

2757.05.09 - Benslurahk 2 has finally been colonized! A small space port has been ordered to be constructed there.

[image]http://img532.imageshack.us/img532/702/secu15.jpg[/image]

2757.05.20 - A fleet of five ships (1 destroyer, 4 frigates) are going to attempt to take out the Iron Moon Outlaws in the Cuthbert system. 4 additional frigates have been commissioned at the Secura space port.

2757.06.17 - The Sneaky Wayfarer has finished refueling and will be heading back out on its journey to the east.

[image]http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/3917/secu16.jpg[/image]

2757.09.16 - Chimera hits its max of 1.1 billion of our people. It's currently generating 14K (11% of GDP).

[image]http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/573/secu17.jpg[/image]

2757.10.21 - The fleet of five ships we sent to Cuthbert report that the pirate base and at least two ships circling it have all but vanished! Could another race have gotten to them first or something more sinister? We also wonder whether or not they could have relocated their base upon finding out they had been discovered. Whatever it was, it's a mystery.

[image]http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/2610/secu18.jpg[/image]

2758.01.04 - The yearly news report is grim as our economy is still tanking from the polymer shortage and more importantly luxury shortage. The people of Secura are becoming more and more disgruntled, which means less taxes and ultimately less revenue. We have some polymer at Secura, but it just isn't getting sent fast enough to where it is needed most. If we don't right things this year, we could be in trouble.

[image]http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/7892/secu19.jpg[/image]

2758.02.05 - Dear God the Sneaky Wayfarer has run into a nest of monster space slugs hiding in an asteroid belt! Let's hope it can evade them and get out of there.

2758.04.01 - The Viare Starway has finished exloring the Usess system composed of 7 planets and 10 moons. The system is filled with all kinds of luxury goods and elements including Nephthys Wine! Our people could sure use that right about now.

[image]http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/8302/secu20.jpg[/image]

2758.04.07 - The Sneaky Wayfarer just keeps running into trouble, first monster space slugs and now a new gang of pirates.

2758.05.12
- The Late Destiny construction ship finally completes the rebuilding of the mining platform at Wayland 5 that was destroyed by pirates many years ago. It's now going to head out and help complete a polymer mining base in the Thaungl system.

[image]http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/9759/secu21.jpg[/image]

2758.06.07 - The Starway has found a habitable planet in the Konda system: a desert planet containing Tyderios (72%) and Silicon (78%). The Atuuk colony ship finally has a use as its dispatched with a fleet of ships to guard it on its long trek across space. We plan on Konda 4 being a huge hub into the southern part of the galaxy.

[image]http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/8517/secu22.jpg[/image]

2758.06.18 - Not long after its momentous discovery did the Starway come under an attack from a Giant Kaltor. We'll likely send the Starway on its way until help arrives.

2758.07.21 - Much to our disappointment we realize that the Atuuks can only live on continental planets, so they will have to sleep a bit longer. In the meantime we're building a pricey (20,000 credits) colony ship at Secura as a substitute.

2758.08.26 - The small space port at Benslurahk has been completed. This should generate some private activity in the area.

[image]http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/9840/secu23.jpg[/image]

2758.09.05 - Late Destiny has completed the mining base at Yschaloesis 4, providing us with much needed polymer, questurian skin, and dilithium crystal. Just in time too as we're running out of money! As we don't have any Vodkol yet, we're sending her to mine it on the nearby Wayland 7.

[image]http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/3513/secu24.jpg[/image]

2758.09.30 - Wayland 1, now dubbed "Wiconia" after the rare supply of Wiconium located there, has hit its limit of 2 billion of our people! It's generating 17K (14% of GDP).

2758.10.15 - The Muffled Merchant, the newly built colony ship, is now en route to Konda 4! Three frigates have been sent ahead of it to safeguard it.

2758.12.06 - The Shining Nova construction ship has completed a second polymer mining base on the ocean moon of Thaungl 3. It will be moving out to its neighbor, Thaungl 4 to setup a mining platform on a gas giant to mine the high-in-demand caslon as well as helium, hydrogen, and krypton.

2758.12.18 - The Sneaky Wayfarer has completed its exploration of the Bardula system containing nothing more than asteroids. It's on its way to a nearby yellow star.

[image]http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/5339/secu25.jpg[/image]

2758.01.03 - The Starway finished exploring the small and uninteresting system of Atrivis before year's end. It was an economical disaster of a year, with tens of thousands of credits squandered and more likely to come this year. The good thing is we should start to see benefits from the mining facilities we've constructed in the form of luxuries and especially polymer. We currently have 15,000 credits with -40,000 predicted for this year and hopefully that at least goes down by the end of the year. With pirates and space monsters in the east and likely many threats to the south still waiting for us, we really need to turn things around fast.




Nephrinn -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/11/2010 10:32:59 AM)

2759.02.27 - The first major event is the discovery of the Long Range Scanner LR-100, giving us a better awareness of our surroundings. We may not see or get to utilize this technology right away, however.

[image]http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/4373/secu26.jpg[/image]

2759.03.17 - We've come under attack near Yschaloesis 4 by a pirate frigate from the Viare Invaders (their home base was discovered in the distant Desok system previously), but fortunately we had a frigate already under patrol there. This is hopefully where our shield technology comes in handy. Nevertheless, we're going to need protection in this system.

2759.04.27 - The fierce battle of Yschaloesis 4 is over and while the lone frigate managed to chase off the pirate invader, it's been totally disabled. Hopefully the relief force from the Viare system gets there before another pirate force arrives.

2759.05.12 - The Viare Starway finished up exploring the 1 planet dwarf-star system of Theta Horologii and is targeting a yellow-star system next.

2759.06.26 - The construction ship Late Destiny has finished setting up a mining base on the ice planet of Wayland 7 to acquire tyderios and more importantly vodkol and is heading out to repair the frigate damaged by the pirates.

[image]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/2349/secu27.jpg[/image]

2759.06.30 - Konda 4 has been colonized! Unfortunately we can't build a space port of any sort due to the economical crisis (it's slowly improving).

[image]http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/7577/secu28.jpg[/image]
[image]http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/6660/secu29.jpg[/image]
[image]http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/1411/secu30.jpg[/image]

2759.07.01 - We've discovered two new habitable worlds! The first is a continental world in the Walleye system that the Starway is exploring containing polymer and carbon fibre. The second world is a desert planet with three moons in the Barusaerga system being explored by the Sneaky Wayfarer. We can finally send our sleeping Atuuks to this world and awaken them. The Barusaerga system is a whole different matter as not only do we not have enough money to fund the effort, but the pirates between here and there need to be dealt with. That said, Barusaerga could become just as important of a hub as Konda 4 for our endeavors into the eastern part of the galaxy.

2759.08.13 - Another breakthrough, this time in computing with the Basic Combat Targetting CTS-100, allowing our ships to easily hit our foes. No doubt an advantage in close fire fights.

[image]http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/6886/secu31.jpg[/image]

2759.09.27 - The Shining Nova has finished building an important mining platform at Thaungl 4 and its next target is actually right next door on the volcanic moon of Thaungl 5 in the mining of a very rare gem known as the Otandium Opal.

2759.09.29 - The Sneaky Wayfarer has turned up a dead system and will be exploring a nearby white star system next.

[image]http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/1270/secu32.jpg[/image]
[image]http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/784/secu33.jpg[/image]

2759.10.02 - We curiously found an abandoned ship in the Walleye system, which is perfect because we can use it to protect the incoming Atuuk colony ship. And, the thing has 42 firepower!

2759.10.24 - The Late Destiny has finished repairing our broken frigate, but needs refueling before starting its next mission.

2759.11.16 - The Starway will be its way back to Konda 4 to refuel after its long journey of exploration, but will make a stop at the ice planet of Walleye 12 to checkup on some ruins first.

2759.11.20 - A big debate has been brewing on the capital world of Secura on whether or not to establish Konda 4 as the main hub to the south or the soon-to-be colonized Walleye 3. It ended with the decision to ultimately begin by setting up a small port at Konda 4 and making a decision later whether to upgrade it or build a large space port on Walleye 3. The deciding factor seemed to center on our just recovered economy.

[image]http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/4003/secu34.jpg[/image]

2759.12.02 - Being a curious race, we naturally investigated the ruins at Walleye 12, known as the Unity Forum and found that it once served as a sort of "United Nations" in which controllers have more persuasion in diplomatic talks. Unfortunately, we just don't have the technology to colonize these types of cold worlds yet.

[image]http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/248/secu35.jpg[/image]

2760.01.01 - It's been a long, but fulfilling year and our people are proud to say that the worst of the economical crisis is over as luxuries and important goods are finally starting to flow into its worlds. Most importantly we've found two important hubs into the galaxy around us and we hope that from there we can fully get a grip on the resources around those hubs and ultimately strengthen our empire.




Nephrinn -> RE: A Utopian Paradise (4/12/2010 12:05:51 AM)

[image]http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/1606/secu36.jpg[/image]

2760.01.29 - A new pirates base has been found lurking around the gas giant of Gerenia 5, a newly explored system in the east.

2760.04.17 - After finishing refueling at Hydra, the Late Destiny heads out to the nearby ice planet of Wayland 8 to mine the tyderios and terallion down found there.

2760.06.02 - The Wry Nova, the newly built construction ship at Benslurahk 2, is going to risk setting up a resort base on the ice planet Benslurahk 4 in hopes that the Granite Archives found there will attract tourists. We shall see.

2760.06.16 - We've made a major breakthrough in hyper drive technology with the Kaldos Hyper Drive KH-3! This means faster initiation of hyper drive and shorter treks through space.

2760.07.08 - No less than a month after the hyper drive breakthrough do we make our second break through in habitation technology with the Damage Control DC-100. This oddly enough acts like armor in reducing damage to our ships.

2760.08.01 - We seem to be having a rather serious fuel shortage as no one but our capital moon has any fuel in stock, causing delays everywhere. We'll need to start mining for more hydrogen soon.

2760.09.14 - A fleet of five ships meet up at Yschaloesis 4 to head out towards the Desok system where the Viare Invaders's base the Villainous Haunt is located.

2760.09.29 - The Late Destiny completes its mission of setting up a mining base on Wayland 8. According to our charts, the nearest system with an abundance of hydrogen is the Yschaloesis system at Yschaloesis 6.

2760.11.20 - The Atuuk colony ship finally made it to Walleye 3 and successfully colonized the planet! A large space port is being built to commemorate the historic event.

2760.12.24 - Konda 4's small space station has been completed! This should give the planet, at 23 million citizens, a nice boost.

2761.01.01 - The end of a year and a start of another. This year has been about discovery, recovery, and expansion. Our economy has exploded this year, putting us above 100,000 credits with almost that much in profits annually. We're seeing the fruits of our efforts pay off in our southern expansion of Konda 4 and most recently Walleye 3. The Thaungl and Yschaloesis systems to the northeast of us are, as expected, buzzing with activity as key elements are being harvested at an alarming rate. Meanwhile, the Securians await news from the fleet of five ships who are traveling deep into hostile territory to the east to attack the pirate bases located there and pave the way for future expansion into the region. The big crisis facing our people now is the lack of fuel. We have one constructor ship on its way to setup a mining platform, but it may not be until the end of the year before it's done, so the worst may still be yet to come.

2761.01.28 - The Viare Starway completed its exploration of the Thes system containing 9 planets and 10 moons. It has a wealth of elements of all types including the rare perfume aquasian incense that our people would love. The Starway's next target is a yellow-star system.

2761.02.04 - The Viare Invaders make a threat just as we are about to hit them with a fleet of five ships.

2761.03.05 - The Viare Invaders base has been taken care of, apparently sending a message to other pirates as the Zenox Ravagers nearby have joined our empire! This means we can get a colony ship out to Barusaerga 3 right away, together with a fuel stop and protection for the area.

2761.04.17 - Quicker than expected, the Shining Nova completes the mining platform at Thaungl 4 that should begin to provide our empire with the fuel it so desperately needs. The Shining Nova will be moving next door to Thaungl 5 to construct a similar platform.

[image]http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/2959/secu09.jpg[/image]

2761.05.26 - A new pirate threat has been found in the newly explored Faleuscicus system to the west of the Walleye system. They bear resemblance to the Atuuks on Walleye oddly enough.

2761.06.29 - The Late Destiny completes yet another critical mining platform to ease the fuel crisis on Yschaloesis 6.

2761.07.16 - The colony ship dubbed the Viare Scoundrel will make a quick fuel stop in the Yschaloesis system before heading out on its long journey to the east to colonize Barusaerga 3.

2761.09.07 - Though the Securians are a peaceful race, it realizes the need to protect itself and has therefore ordered four weapons research stations to be built at Wiconia.

2761.09.14 - An isolated pirate attack on Viare 10! The small escort ship appears to be under the Konda Gang and as far as I know there are no pirates in the Konda system. Is this one a stray or a part of a pirate group not yet discovered? Whatever it may be it will surely get shot down quick by our scrambling ships.

[image]http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/2523/secu12.jpg[/image]

2761.09.16 - Another attack in the Usess system not far from the Konda system. This time from two giant squid monsters coming from the gas giant of Usess 5. That poor mining ship better get out of there.

2761.10.30 - The constructor ships the Late Destiny, Wry Nova, and newly built Cautious Prowler all undertake missions to set up various bases, including a resort base in the Benslurahk system, a moon with luxury goods in the Yschaloesis system, and even a moon of Viare 9 containing trace amounts of Vodkol. The newly built Vain Novelty, an exploration ship, has plans to explore the various locations around our empire deemed as risky, starting with a supernovae.

2761.11.02 - A breakthrough in research laboratories has been made with the Energy Lab EL-200! This should make our research more efficient.

2761.11.28 - Another isolated attack on Viare 10 just after our ships in the system left to refuel (I guess we ran out of fuel again in our capital).

[image]http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/2572/secu13.jpg[/image]

2761.12.19 - The Shining Nova completes another key mining platform to give us fuel at Thaungl 5.

[image]http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/8162/secu14.jpg[/image]

2762.01.07 - Wiconia completes its four weapons research facilities just as we enter into a new year. Our world of Hydra in the Viare system also reaches a milestone of over 20 billion of our people and still rising! The big news is still the ongoing fuel crisis as waves and waves of private ships make unwanted pit stops at Konda 4. Hopefully we'll see a turn around this year with the three additional mining facilities now in production of the fuel our ships need.
