2300 -
As the second century(of many, so long as the blessings of Boojie endure) of the Collective's galactic existence dawns, we say hello to two new leaders.
Dr. Salve Linus, a young one at age 31, is known only for expertise in Computing research. Perhaps a career in Physics is down the line for him. He presently commands the
Korgasch, one of the science ships working on debris analysis from the Qravadox War. The second is
Tarislan. That's Governor Tarislan of Humboldt to you, though he may be reassigned after the war. At 44, he's the youngest of the current crop of administrators and is known only for his eagerness to serve.
05.13 -- Entering Sinistra, the Fist of Boojie encounters another military station and a small spaceport. Nothing else much is here other than a few orbital stations though -- this is clearly not a major system.
06.02 -- Victory in Sinistra, and Nano-Vitality Crops research has been finished as well. At present, even with a few more corvettes having been built, the new administration has a solid grasp on the energy situation(over 800 in the reserve, +18 per month). The go-ahead is given to upgrade hydroponic farms, increasing the agricultural yield of arable provinces.
06.05 -- Power Hub upgrade finished on Bakangi.
06.18 -- From Omaggus, minor progress in Plasma Accelerators and Devastator Torpedoes.
06.23 -- A new science ship, the Lollusch III, is christened to join the debris analysis efforts. There are now three research vessels, just as before.
07.03 -- Humboldt and Agglor finish their Power Hub upgrades, moving on to improving the farms there as well. Energy production sees a significant spike with these developments, presently at +34 a month.
09.18 -- More debris studies finished in Bion Dazat. Some new information on Devastator Torpedoes, but none on the accelerators currently under official prototyping.
Dr. Salve Linus now moves on to the Salluria system, deeper in Qravadox space.
09.20 -- Gabbog and Eskogg complete work on their power grids -- now all core planets have moved to farming improvements. Energy status is at +40 per month, with the reserve growing rapidly.
09.29 -- The fleet reaches Ereness, first of four occupied systems that will culminate in the new QSC capital system of Qratrafrana, if necessary. It is hoped that by raiding this series, they will be forced to surrender. They've been doing a bit better against the Vun-Okon, but are still losing overall on that front.
10.13 -- Defense station down, attacking the spaceport in Ereness ... and the science ship captained by P'Dykna enters the fray. A brilliant but misguided researcher, you may recall that he is the reason all this nonsense started. Decades ako, P'Dykna's heresies were the reason we closed our borders to the QSC.
11.11 -- P'Dykna has been ... eliminated, to the glory of Boojie. Ereness has been cleansed of all opposition, yet the fight must continue.
