Suffers from Selective Memory
So I've got this kick ass RP that I've never been able to get running due to the size of it, mainly due to lack of interest on the sites I've been on and the size, it's too big for just me to run alone.
So first I'll post it below in a spoiler and if anyone is willing to help run it let me know!
And then this would be a standard interest check!

The year of 2230 was marked by the collapse of the Interstellar Union's hold on the Andromedan colonies as a result of a 150-year civil war. The Interstellar Union was still a powerful entity, but the outer colonies were now independent, and the Interstellar Union would leave the the galaxy of Andromeda alone, allowing the colonies to grow and prosper.
But peace wouldn't last forever, the Interstellar Union did not forget their crushing defeat and would eventually return with a large invasion force to retake Andromeda.
What remained of the colonies had splintered into several different governments that held onto their territory heavily, untrusting of the others. They formed a weak coalition called the Andromeda Defense Pact, in order to combat the IU's considerably stronger armada. With their combined resources, the managed to beat back the IU's initial assault, but it was a savage wake-up call to the IU, who began planning a significantly larger invasion, exponentially larger than the first.
-| Combat Ships |-
Uniform Ships are provided so that people don't go off and start making a billion different variants that are difficult to keep track of.
--Starships | Andromeda Defense Pact / Non-Interstellar Union Ships | You can build these for your own fleets, but the process of creating new variants is extremely time consuming and you'll often find that the provided designs are more effective.
Anima-Class Corvette - One post to build four corvettes
Cutlass-Class Frigate - One post to build two frigates
Sabre-Class Heavy Frigate - One post to build one heavy frigate
Karta-Class Freighter - No minimum for civilian variant, three posts to outfit for combat.
Lumina-Class Destroyer - Two posts for one destroyer
Tachyon-Class Cruiser - One page for three cruisers
Aegis-Class Heavy Cruiser - One page for two heavy cruisers
Simona-Class Carrier - 5 Pages to build from scratch,
Valkyrie-Class Dreadnought - 10 pages to build a single dreadnought from scratch, 5 pages to repair a wreck.
AP-2 "Cutter" Fighter
AP-1E "Cobra" Interceptor
RC-3 "Broadsword" Heavy Multi-Role Craft / Bomber
KA-H3 "Lifter" Heavy Dropship
KA-H2 "Eagle" Dropship
IA-B2 "Robin" Gunship
CC-7 "Striker" Attack VTOL
--Starships | Interstellar Union - These are NPC ships that can be captured in limited numbers, the Pact's warships easily match the Union's ships, but the Interstellar Union has a significant advantage in numerical superiority, and they are able to respond to attacks faster.
Candor-Class Corvette
Stalwart-Class Frigate
Paris-Class Heavy Frigate
Paladin-Class Destroyer
Eclipse-Class Cruiser
Crusader-Class Heavy Cruiser
Vanguard-Class Carrier
Titan-Class Dreadnought
SN-F97 "Phaser" Fighter

FB3-1 "Raptor" Heavy Multi-Role Craft / Bomber
SN-CR6 "Albatross" Heavy Dropship
CK-7 "Hawk" Dropship
CK-7G "Dagger" Gunship
CK-10 "Fireblade" Attack VTOL
--Starships | Special/Advanced/Pre-war - These ships cannot be built, you have two options when you recover one of these ships; you can salvage the ship to build more ships, or you can repair the ship to include in your fleets. These ships are much more powerful and vastly superior than their lesser cousins, but these ships are becoming increasingly rare. All Pre-war ships have stealth capabilities, but these measures are less effective on larger capital ships, like cruisers. This list may be expanded in the future, but these are the known classes at the start of the RP.
Sentinel-Class Advanced Corvette
Spectral-Class Advanced Frigate
Phantom-Class Advanced Destroyer
Phasmata-Class Advanced Cruiser
Zephyr-Class Advanced Heavy Cruiser
Procyon-Class Supercarrier
Nyx-Class Super Dreadnought - The rarest and most powerful of them all.
MRCC-mk3 "Caliber" Interceptor
M-7 "Blackbird" Multi-Role Fighter
M-10 "Solomon" Heavy Bomber
< Rules >
1. No Godmodding, Metagaming, Powergaming, etc. This means that performing tasks like creating 30 Carriers in two pages, which is not feasible in the first place, will be frowned upon and you will receive a strike for this. With that aside, you MUST follow the production times for the ships in the thread. The antagonist faction, The Interstellar Union, is probably the only faction that has immunity from this rule, but regular players aren't allowed to be a part of this faction anyway.
2. If necessary, a player can start a vote to dismiss an overpowered post made by another regular player. This requires a majority vote to pass and an admin can dismiss or support the vote. These votes will be handled in the OOC Thread and not the IC Thread.
3. Keep OOC posts in the IC thread to a minimum, a discussion should be carried over to the OOC thread if it continues to persist past two or so posts.
4. You cannot build any Cruisers/Heavy cruisers while you are building a dreadnought or carrier. This rule does not apply to repairing wrecked dreadnoughts.
5. You are not required to be a part of the ADP in the thread, but you cannot join or be affiliated with the Interstellar Union at all, because while the Interstellar Union canonically has a limited amount of resources, they are virtually infinite in the RP. tldr; You can only be INDEPENDENT or ADP.
6. Reiterating a point made earlier, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BUILD INTERSTELLAR UNION / PRE-WAR / ADVANCED SHIP CLASSES FROM SCRATCH.
7. Administrators have the power to ban players with a vote, void posts, void regular-player events, and they also have the ability to create their own events, including Interstellar Union raids, but not full-scale invasions. Administrators will be appointed throughout the RP.
8. Research is extremely limited, so you won't be able to create anything revolutionary like drastic changes in weapon systems, or new combat spacecraft/aircraft designs.
9. While this isn't really a rule, trading and diplomacy should take up as much of the thread as combat would; internal politics should also be a factor, and your economic status should affect the readiness of your faction. Everyone will start with a single planet at most.
10. You must describe your new technology or military equipment when it is researched, and you cannot have some sort of secret technology.
11. Debuffs are going to be issued on each Dreadnought deployment.
12. Additional amendments might be made to the rules as time goes on.

Additional Notes
Advanced/Pre War Ships will only appear in events. Pre War technology is especially lucrative because it is more advanced than Interstellar Union and ADP technology.
The Interstellar Union will occasionally make incursions into player territory, but most of the fighting is somewhat far away from the sector where the player factions will be located.
Dreadnoughts are the only ships that can receive crippling damage that would completely destroy other ships and survive.
The Nyx Dreadnoughts are indestructible and can only be controlled by admins. They're titanic in comparison to the other dreadnoughts, around 5x the size.
Gameplay Mechanics
Starting Fleet
Starting Fleet
20 Corvettes
15 Frigates
10 Heavy Frigates
5 Destroyers
3 Cruisers
No Heavy Cruisers
No Carriers
No Dreadnoughts
1 starting Shipyard for producing ships
-Every 10 pages the amount of ships in the original starting fleet is doubled; for example, at 10 pages, the number of starting Corvettes will be 40, and at 20 pages, it will be 80.
-After page 10, new players will get a choice between dreadnought or a carrier.
-After page 20, new players will automatically get a dreadnought AND a carrier.
Buff/Debuff system
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, therefore based on the actions you take you may earn a buff or a debuff.
Debuffs:
Example: Corvettes as suicide bombers will equal a debuff on stability.
Extreme ship making will debuff economy
Lack of combat or patrols will debuff military, drills will mitigate this.
Failed or extremely long research will debuff technology
A military that is too high in a democratic nation will result in lower stability.
Flagship destruction would remove your flagship buff
Too many shipyards on one planet will result in damaged environment=damaged stability
Buff example:
Home field advantage: buff to military
Trading: Buff to economy
Alliances: Buff to stability
Flagships: +5 to all stats
Researching: A successful research endeavor will buff the technology stat the amount of pages it took to research.
Shipyards: Each shipyard takes 5 pages to build and requires you to use another shipyard to build, ceasing ship production on a single shipyard.
