The Dark Lord

Some idiot on the RSOF is trying to get Jagex to nerf the Monastery teleports to like one teleport every 10 minutes or some crap like that. To make it even worse, a J-mod commented on the thread and said "I agree with some things on here, but not on other things." Let's hope that he didn't agree with the unlimited teleports being nerfed.

You know what? We could just come up with a final history instead of a war. We could just write the "Great War" into the history, but leave a semi-happy ending or whatever for everyone. In my history, I get assassinated by an IRA agent, and Albert takes the throne. hehe I gave up and said "Screw it" with the unbanning thing. Dusty, just get in #medi, please.

OKay, I formally call dibs on the Vikings.

:P To be honest, I wouldn't mind playing as some badass Germanic tribe on the new thread, or I may play as England again. Not sure. By the way Dusty, try getting in #NWO. We're discussing the new thread in there. (I think I unbanned you - Didn't want you spying on our top-secret discussions, :P)

Um, you never researched any of those. [hide=pic][/hide] Actually, I did.

Update: Project India is complete, and Project Sweden has been canceled. Ten million clones that RPG made are relocated there. And because I can, all of Project Gala(had) is finished: [hide=SIS suits] SIS suits (Standard Infantry Suit) are typically jet-black in appearance. They are basically light-weight exobreakers that use electronic visors and headsets in the suit's helmet. A satellite feeds commands and information about the terrain (typically topographic maps) and enemy positions into the soldiers visor, which presents an image for the soldier to see. The headsets are used for communication among other soldiers, and they can be used for last-minute commands. [/hide] [hide=Advanced Helicopters] The helicopters that are being researched under Project Gala are more advanced versions of the helicopter. They use heavier weaponry and can be used to transport more soldiers into combat than their older counterparts. Their advanced computers aid the helicopters with defensive manoeuvres and help with targeting enemy units (allowing [/hide] [hide=Hypersonic Jets/Bombers] These are the Britannian Empire's first super-fast fighter jets and bombers. There isn't really much to say about them.[/hide] [hide=SPARTA exobreakers] SPARTA exobreakers are used for Britannia's special infantry. They are heavily armoured and allow soldiers to jump further distances via small propulsion jets. A retractable palm pistol is attached to the soldier's wrist, which serves as a secondary weapon. Due to the exobreaker's strength-enhancing benefits, a soldier can wield much heavier assault rifles and do much damage to enemy units. To add even more benefit, the suit utilises special computers that help make split-second decisions. Like the SIS suit, the SPARTA suit also receives information (maps, enemy positions, commands, etc) from satellites into its helmet. These suits are also some of the most advanced exobreakers in the world, thanks to the X4 schematics and the X5 prototype suit that Aether sent the Britannian Empire for its research. [/hide] [hide=The Galahad] The Galahad is a more modern version of the Lancelot, except that it has more advanced AI (allowing it to even have autopilot) and armour. It is also capable of doing more damage than the Lancelot due to more accurate heavy assault rifles. Like the Lancelot, they also walk like humans for increased navigability across rough terrain, and they can swiftly travel across pavement by using wheels attached to its "feet". However, unlike the Lancelot, they also utilise limited jump jets. [/hide] Also, production on hypersonic jets and bombers has begun, as well as Galahads, SIS suits, Sparta suits, and the new helicopters. Britannian Military Structure [hide=Royal Guard] The Royal Guard consists of elite soldiers that are commanded by Knights. The Royal Guard exists in order to serve the Emperor. Each member answers to their respective Knight, and the Knight answers solely to the King. They wear black capes and SIS suits. Knights wear red capes and SIS suits with gilded trim.[/hide] [hide="Regular Britannian Infantry] This is perhaps the largest of the Britannian ground forces. The typical British ranking system is used for this group. Each infantryman wears black, light-weight body armour that protects their legs, arms, torso, and head. Their helmets contain electronic visors and headsets that receive information from satellites. The satellites then issue commands and display topographic maps of their geographic location and enemy units. They use standard assault rifles. [/hide] [hide=Britannian Special Infantry/S.P.A.R.T.A.] The Britannian Special Infantry consists of clone warriors that receive military training since they are children. They receive heavy assault rifles and strong exobreakers. The exobreakers use small jets in order to allow the warriors to quickly move around on the battlefield. Due to the combination of the their early training and powerful weaponry and armour, the "Spartans" are one of the most deadly units in the universe. They use the Sparta suits.[/hide] [hide=The Royal Navy] The Royal Navy is perhaps one of the strongest navies in existence. It consists of many destroyers, frigates, submarines, as well as ships designed for carrying troops, among other things.[/hide] [hide=Royal Air Force] The Royal Air Force (RAF) consists of many different air units, including ships that deposit troops onto enemy territory, hypersonic jets, various bombers, and helicopters.[/hide] [hide=The Citizens' Army] The Citizens' Army consists of nearly every person in the Britannian Empire. All citizens are required to go through basic military training, and they are issued standard body armour and rifles. During times of invasion, the Citizens' Army could be used to fend off the invaders.[/hide] [hide=The Britannian Cavalry] The Britannian Cavalry consists of mechanised ground forces, namely the Lancelot. Lancelots are bipedal, armoured vehicles that can be piloted. These vehicles have replaced Britannia's tanks years ago because they can walk like humans in order to quickly navigate through rough terrain and they can use wheels attached to their "feet" in order to quickly move across pavement. They each wield heavy machine guns. However, newer, expensive models allow for them to utilise plasma shielding and more advanced armour, and they have autopilot capabilities. Another land vehicle that the Britannian Empire uses can be used as a makeshift command centre and acts as a mobile fortress. This vehicle can rapidly deploy troops and Lancelots, if needed. [/hide] [hide=The Britannian Space Fleet] The Britannian Space Fleet consists of two flagships: the HMS Pax Britannica and the HMS Birthright, which are both capable of nuclear bombardment from space. These ships consist of light railguns that destroy incoming projectiles and heavy railguns that are designed for attacking other ships. Both ships also use ARC cannons to bombard a planet from space and do heavy damage to other ships. The cannons are capable of a single, devastating burst or smaller, oscillating bursts. The rest of the Britannian Space Fleet transports colonists to new worlds, and there are numerous battleships.[/hide] From this moment on, people are being recruited into the Britannian military.

Sounds cool and depressing. Imagine all of the hours/days/years that you've wasted while staring at a little pixellated man.

Project India continues. Project Gala: Part I: 7/8 (10b/year) Part II: 7/8 (25b/year) Part IV: 7/12 (35b/year) Part V: 7/12 (25b/year) Part VI: 7/14 (20b/year) Naval output continues. Eighteen Antagonist-class cruisers are being created for a total cost of 108 billion. Gun-production continues. We are making 40 million more XTF_5000s. This will cost 48 billion, and it will bring the total guns produced over the past few years to 160 million. Infrastructure will be created in Sweden over the next 25 years. National Lottery: 8b Money left over: 102 billion The left over surplus money will put into a special fund. This includes the money left over from the past few years, bringing the fund's total amount to 408 billion. More will be revealed about the fund later on.

Hey, RPG. Get in the IRC channel, please.

It sounds like a really good idea, as long as it is not going to degenerate into something as defunct as Falador Library (no offence). Anyway, I offer a suggestion and pose some questions: 1) It would really help Hegemony/Falador Tavern if a recruitment thread is stickied on Off-Topic. 2) How are moderators going to be selected for Falador Tavern? Will they be already-existing moderators that just volunteer to moderate the new subforum, or will new, local moderators be hand-picked? And if new moderators are hand-picked, will they be trusted, active players, or how will that work?

Well, putting it into the Falador Library would kill it over the course of a few months, just so you know. I like the subforum idea, however. Maybe they could sticky a recruitment thread for the Hegemony in OT?

Solution: Big [wagon] EMPs. Or, you could just use one of these bad boys: Hell yes, a rail gun.

I hated mol conversions... a lot. It was probably due to the fact that I never really studied my notes on stoichiometry and mol conversions, though.

Lol I couldn't tell if that smile was happy or evil. Haha, at first glance, I thought that Armadyl symbol on the hilt was a Third Reich eagle.

The war mechanic is based around a random number generator. It was introduced a month or two ago by Ross_the_Knight, but it still has kinks that need to be worked out. Yes, Hex will still lose, but it will at least show the casualties. However, I'm afraid that only Ross truly knows how it works, so we'll have to wait for him to do it for us, I guess. @Grim: There already is FTL communication. It is currently 100x the speed of light, I believe.

[hide=Most recent map of Earth][/hide] Here is the most recent map of Earth. In the future, can you guys please use this map when editing? ---- EDIT: Guys, for [bleep] sake. USE THE DAMN WAR MECHANIC! It doesn't matter if it's a minor battle, a battle between the strongest empire and the tiniest country, or a rebellion. The war mechanic is absolutely necessary! Even though I don't like Hex, I still agree that the war mechanic should be used.

This includes the money left over from the past few years, bringing the fund's total amount to 306 billion. More will be revealed about the fund later on.

I'm still waiting for them to talk more about the Eastern Lands, as was promised in the February(?) BTS. So far, we haven't had anything related to it, besides the hairstyles. They said it would be this year when we heard more about "Ak-Haranu and the Eastern folk", but it seems to have gone by the wayside. Anyway, talking about the POH subject. I think that a "Clan House" feature by which people that are members of your clan or on your friends' list could enter your house, even when you're not on. This would allow more people to use your house, and it would allow for uninterrupted clan meetings. Plus, you don't have to stand around inside your house while it's open. Parties are also easier to have in case you disconnect. It's a pain in the arse to spend 100M into your house with the idea that people can appreciate it, but you have to constantly stand around and do nothing in order for people to even train there.

First of all, I would like to welcome you aboard. :) Yes, people could theoretically conquer planets in your system, however, you most likely won't get booted off the game (i.e. A person invades all of your planets and conquers them.) Also, people have been starting with an 80b budget. This is technically much higher than it should be because we are taking 20% of your starting GDP and being lenient. However, established players are using 5% of their total GDP. For your starting tech, you should probably ask Doomsavenger about that, but you would definitely get FTL drives, as well as having a choice of other starting tech (within reason). You also get a population of 10 million humans. Also, Doomsavenger or Ross_the_Knight will generate a random system for you, so there's no need to take an already-existing system. Enjoy playing with us. :thumbsup:

[hide=Map of Midgard][/hide] Here's an updated map of Midgard, if Dusty doesn't object to some of the aesthetic changes. I am going to go ahead and post the map again, since it hasn't really been discussed much. Doom, add this map to the front page, please. I will update the Earth map tomorrow, and I will also repost some of the other maps in order to get them on the front page. Anyway, it's late, so I'm going to go. Cheers.

That reminds me... My colony ships have deposited 40,000 Britannian citizens from Earth onto the southern end of the large continent by Kamino (long continent with no settlers) on Zhoreuc.

First of all, I would like to commend Mather for his behaviour today. He has cut down on some of the silliness, and he has also contributed to the thread with a new, prettier Hegemony signature. Well done, Mather! :thumbsup: ---- Project India continues.

I personally think a lot of people on this game have Asperger's. With the intense obsession some people have while playing, it's hard for me to not believe they are a little autistic.
