The RP is now up. Still accepting sigh-ups though. http://www.everypony.com/threads/galactica-still-accepting-sign-ups.19110/
@Lord Architect Well the premises is just a crew of a ship going around taking jobs and getting into adventures and such. The rules? I guess; no deciding other characters fates and no godmoding. Why? You interested?
Quite possibly. I wondered due to the fact, that a few of my characters run their own space fleet thingamabobs, and I wanted to know if they could have a ship that flies with the main ship thing, if possible.
I know I'm being extremely analytical over this, but what is the general scale of your main ship in terms of Star Trek? (i.e. Constellation, Galaxy, etc...) If you don't mind me asking that is. This way I can give my smaller ship appropriate scale for a scout ship, befitting the main ship.
From my description in my bio I described the ship as a small cargo ship able to hold a small crew. Definitely smaller than the USS Enterprise but shall we say larger than the Millennium Falcon (Possible nerd triggering inbound)
this battlestar galatica? because if so, im the cag. (Commander Air Group) Name: Midnight Shadow Age: 27 Gender: Female Nationality: English Weapon of choice: Sniper Riffle Name of weapon: Shadow Ray Notable skills: Flexibility; she was a gymnast when she was younger. She is also swift, but not very strong. Quite smart, but reckless. Bio: Midnight Shadow was a ace fighter pilot, she eventually began to work her way up and began leading her own squadron, she turned down a promotion to Core Command, since she believed her own abilities would be better for leading the squadrons rather then co-coordinating attacking from Core Command.
Hmm. So I'd say the Scout ship would need to be about the size of either the Slave 1 or seven TIE fighters? Which would fit better?
@MidnightShadow So she decided to join a smaller crew of misfits? Can't argue with that logic. Welcome aboard.
@MidnightShadow Oh jesus. I don't watch Star Trek so I would have said the USS Enterprise NCC-1701. Also, be as dramatic as you'd like. @Lord Architect I'd say about the Slave 1. seems about right.
