This game takes place in an unknown galaxy long after the humans have achieved space travel. Like, somewhere around 6501 A.D. The races are at war over several reasons, the main one being over territory. I need someone to take the job of being the GodModder, which will be explained later. This, as the name suggests, is a space game. Each race has it's own home planet, excluding the Zombies. Here are the rules: 1. No GodModding, unless you are the GodModder. 2. You can create your own race, government, etc. as long as, in physical terms, the race has pros and cons that balance each other.* 3.The GodModder cannot play, but they control things like chance, and other things that would not work if one side was favored. They also have control over the Neutral Zone, but may not attack. 4. There is a Neutral Zone, where no fighting may take place. If so, you are banned for 10 posts. The same goes for sending any governmental-based messages to or from the Neutral Zone. You may NOT, I repeat, MAY NOT attack the Neutral Zone. 5. This is a turn-based game. A unit of time is soon to be decided. 6. There is a universal currency. Call it whatever you want, it's still the same. 7. You may have a character, but you still control your race's forces. 8. If more than one person wants to be of the same race, whoever joins first is the first in command. 9. Super-lightspeed is not allowed. Space-folding is, but mainly for transportation. I currently control the Droids. Name of Race: Droids Pros: Able to override many electronic systems, can analyze systems and perceive the mechanics, adoptive muscle memory, long-ranged attacks, uses mainly energy attacks (lasers, plasma bombs, etc.) and has a 360-degree field of vision. AI is used for reasoning, although it can be overridden. Cons: Susceptible to electrical charges, small particles in mass amounts can clog systems, (TO BE CONTINUED LATER) Description: The Droids have been the galaxy's guardians in case a war should ever break out. They oversaw all of the planets to make sure there was peace. Paradox oversees the Droids to insure there is no rebellion, and is the first (and only so far) Droid to wear Prism armor. The Droids' mission is to make peace between the cultures that are appearing in the galaxy. Government: Communism Material: Prism - Can store any energy and reproduce it as another energy, however, it is extremely fragile in relations to physical attacks. 2 kilograms is worth 35 credits. Planet description: Instead of a Terminator-esque theme, the home planet of the Droids is very environment-based. There are completely metal areas, however, and factories for producing manufactured goods. The planet is vastly populated with Prism, so attacking it with energy-based weapons is uneffective. Appearance: How you would imagine a robot. Or: This one (Left) is the unarmored drone. This one (Right) is Paradox. Each person begins with 1,000 credits. You can make your own weaponry, but you must pay for the raw materials. The GodModder controls the outcome of battles, along with how many posts it takes to develop any tech. The Neutral Zone has nearly all materials, except for some materials only held by certain races. You can make one material to call your own. You are able to sell it for a specified price. You cannot make it over-expensive, and must list it's properties.

Name of Race: Nonjas Pros: Great Training, Large Numbers, Good Assassins, High Recruitment Rates (see below). Cons: Require Ramen, Tight Groups, Susceptible to Spies, Rebellion, Low Morale (see below). Description: The Nonjas recently took over Earth and the Solar System, Earth being their home world. They are starting out small. For each planet they take, they do what they did to Mexico in NGI: You either join the Nonja Army, or you join the Nonja Army's Prisoners. There is always a risk of riot by the Nonja Fighters, which hide out in the dying planets taken by the Nonjas. Each planet is basically used for military, torture, and mining/resource gathering. If they take a planet, it dies, with the exception of Earth, which is basically like one giant Nonja city, mostly underground. From space, it looks like the normal continents, but all Gray. No green. Government: Dictatorial Appearance: It's a freaking nonja. What more do you want? Think large armies in black clothing.

Name of Race: Maloid
Pros: Gelatinous, the smarter ones rapidly adapt to any situation, vacuum-proof/don't breathe
Cons: Can't operate machinery that isn't specially designed for Maloids (They might seep into the cracks), they're ships don't have vacuum-proof doors and no air systems, they are entirely unappealing, the stupider Maloids aren't good at adapting
Description: The Maloids have expanded rapidly in the galaxy, as they can withstand a wide range of habitats. They are socially graceful, but their off-putting appearance often makes it hard for guests to feel comfortable with them. All Maloids are born a certain color, this color denoting what they are good at. The Maloids are not assigned a station based on their color, but their color is a physical sign of their intelligence and skill, thus telling everyone what "class" they are. There have been no Maloid rebellions, as each Maloid knows that their intelligence and skill are denoted by their color, and thus they feel they have found their niche in society. Government: Vote for a member of the Royal (Purple) family after current leader has died. Democracy/Monarchy Appearance: They are color-coded, with Blues being in charge of Politics, Red being generals, Oranges are lieutenants/engineers, Yellows are soldiers, the Purple is the leader, Greens are drones with no free thought, and browns are regular citizens that do regular jobs.
Planet/Range: All over the galaxy, spread out on random planets, in contact with the rest of the "Hives" and their leader the Purple Maloid.
Lifespan: 60-120 Years, depending on color

Heh, maybe I should have started with more than just one Solar System. Mind if I have the Orion Arm?

Hello, I am the God-Modder. I rule the race in the Neutral zone. We are beings of pure energy. We control many happenings in the universe. And, we don't like war in the Neutral zone.

Sounds sorta like the MCD, but peaceful. I wonder if they can be controlled in the same ways...
I get some Nonjas working on new methods of torture. As this has no effect on gameplay whatsoever, I figure I might as well.

This sounded too much like Malevolent Invasion until it got to the "make your own race" thing. >_>
Name of Race: Raixodyans
Pros: Vast number of subspecies within the species, some are faster, stronger, or smarter than others. Massive population as well.
Cons: Few "perfect" Raixodyans exist, only about 3 live now. Variations have begun to effect their reproduction: It is becoming harder to reproduce with two different subspecies. The faster ones are weaker with varying intelligence, stronger ones are slower and mostly dumb, while the smartest ones are balanced decently, with slightly varying speed and strength.
Description: Raixodyans(A.K.A "Malevolents") are an ancient species that has thrived longer than almost any other, dating back before anything kept written records. They are usually social but are mostly aggressive, treating others brutally, especially imprisoned enemies. They become bloodlust when angered or majorly upset. Raixodyans have a vast array of technology, certain guns are only used by certain subspecies. They come in many different shapes and sizes, but this creates weaknesses in some of them.
Range: Their home planet is Ryken X, but they are spread out all over the galaxy, and in vertain parts, the universe. They are connected via Hives, which allows them to "teleport" from one Hive to another.
Lifespan: Varies within the subspecies.
Appearance: Also varies. Brutes are large and generally ugly, while Rekons... well, nobody knows what a Rekon actually looks like. O.o
Government: Dictatorship. The dictator(Me <3) has a council of 100, named... the Council of 100.(Original, no?)

I believe "Bloodlust" is a noun, not an adjective.

Race:Humans(The Rebels)
Pros:Most of their ships have lots of weapons and vehicles. Moderately intelligent some smarter that others. Cyborgs! And lots of weapons.
Cons:Barely know any other language than the human language. Nonjas are always on the look out for "the rebels." as they call them. Very weary of every one.
Description: The history of mankind: During the early years of separation two factions existed the Nonjas and the Rebels. The Rebels had a leader his nick name was Phantom Zero, he and a group of men broke in to a command center on earth it wasn't the smartest plan but it worked. He hacked in to the system and released 20 ships 1 flagship he named The Phantom Soul 13 destroyers 5 repair ships and an undocumented stealth ship. he rescued thousands of people 25,000 people to be exact. 50 destroyers chased after them over hundreds of light years. They escaped. ever since then they have been developing new weaponry and armor. TRANSMISSION END
Government: One ruler ALWAYS
Appearance: Phantom Zero is immortal the rest live for about 200-400 years. Look like Humans just bigger and stronger.

Hmm.... I am unsure of what system to use for deciding how many posts it will take to develop tech... 1. GodModder's decision: They choose a certain amount of posts that show how long it will take; 2. We use NGI's system.

Attention all players present and future! This is the God-Mod! Delow, you see a link and image to the map. Your job is to tell me where you want your empires to start. If you want a new color, you must claim it now or be forever silent! That is all. dl.dropbox.com/u/4136228/Planetary%20Wars%20Map.png

Race: Chuuritsu
Pros: Does not have a respiration system (meaning, no need for air); Bio-mechanical organism which allows numerous enhancements to physical stature; Fairly strong with melee weaponry as well as advanced weaponry; Enhanced senses of sight and hearing; Use logical thinking.
Cons: Susceptible to long range weaponry and ambush attacks; Indecision when choosing sides for war other than their own; Have lost their ability to reproduce other than with artificial creation.
Description: The Chuuritsu is a relatively peaceful race. They reside in a rather far place from the center of the galaxy. Long ago they had decided the only way to resolve their problems (namely disease, discrimination, etc.) was to become nearly one with machine. The remaining organic life components of their physical being consist of DNA as well as other cellular components that are the basis of organic life. Most if not all of the weapons they create are strictly for self-defense. They live on a fair sized amount of planets, keeping the organic life intact on each one.
Government: Communist. Their leader (Lord Kurai) controls a portion of the entire race's thought-processes, so when the time comes to act, he is able to command their acts as a whole.
Appearance: The average Chuuritsu is bipedal, and quite high in stature. Their outer covering is sleek and polished with a greenish-white gloss. When going into battle, large metal spikes protrude instantaneously from their shoulders and biceps. Their leader has these spikes remained permanently within his own stature, as well as an overall larger physical appearance than the average Chuuritsu. Applications can be developed which include mandibles that protrude sharp teeth-like metal. Such applications can be used for melee purposes or communication with other races.
I request the color of my race to be a dark green please. I also wish for it to be placed on a rather far place from the center of the galaxy.
Their leader resembles this image I drew [img src="http://i46.[tinypic.com]/300fhcn.png"] Regular Churitsuu beings are less toned and without the spikes on the shoulders and thighs until they enter battle. They also lack the mask.

I would like the space to the direct Southwest of the Neutral Zone to be Droid territory.

About 2/3 of the way out, in this case it would be in the same arm as the Home System.
