37.


Srsly. Another planetary shift. In the same day, Ferenginar is re-colonized by our settlers. As Admiral Nix's fleet joined the fleet of Admiral Hostergaard Jr., the bombardment of Ceti Alpha has been restarted. Few turns and it should be done.


As I said, it was fast. The fleets moved to the last Ferengi system, Berentalia, and will proceed with bombardment.


At Turn 502, Ferengi Alliance has fallen. System will be resettled immediatelly. Federation Council passed a resolution that says we won't bombard any more systems to ensure peace. Klingons and Cardassians might be our enemies, but there was enough bloodshed of innocents. Besides, the Starfleet is almost invulnerable now. As Destruction of Ferengi Alliance has happened, our two Admirals have been redirected to other systems - Admiral Hostergaard Jr. is en route to Betazed for a long needed stay, whilst Admiral Nix will return to Sol System, paying a quick visit to Klingon space as well.
Cpt.Ivan 9th crashed a small strike group of Klingon ships at Stakoron system. Cpt.Euchre Jack is tasked to visit Cardassia - for obvious reasons. And, last but not least, Cpt.Jarod Cain has been appointed as Commander of Conquered Regions, placing Romulan and Ferengi territories in his jurisdiction.


Wow, that came out of nowhere. We sent Zakdornian leaders our profound apologize with a large gift to show we're truly sorry for this incident.

What follows next is string of colonizations. Both Cardassians and Klingons shape up for war, but their limited resources aren't going to help. They attempt random strikes at our starbases, but they fail miserably.


Oooh, that happens at Turn 527. Dunno what it does, though. We're now on tech level 11 across all six branches of science. Quite possibly it just gives a multiplier on our score when the game ends, like in Civilization games.


Look who visited Beltane system 10 turns later! Cpt.Jarod has been called to deal with this threat. Hopefully we will suffer no further losses.


Calamarain was destroyed by Starbase at Benzar. Cpt.Jarod expressed his dissappointment in lack of action. What to say, he has peaceful sector to maintain. However, Admiral Hostergaard and his fleet were called to Hurkos. Cardassians are amassing forces near their 'western' border, and intelligence reports indicate seven ships already, including two battleships.
Due to Cardassian and Klingon intrusions into our space, Starfleet Command ordered construction of eight Defiant-class starships. They will be sent in pairs, two pairs per neighbour, to intercept enemy vessels.


Just after our Defiants were deployed, our spies managed to steal Cardassian warship - and not just a mere destroyer, no, a Galor-class Battleship! It was take nto Trill system, where it will be evaluated and researched. I wonder if Cpt.Euchre Jack has anything against a Cardassian warship in his fleet!


And so we have won Star Trek: Birth of the Federation as the United Federation of Planets. More than 500 glorious turns of challenges and victories. We endured huge, endless wars with other races, united the scattered minor civilizations, defeated the Borg - twice! - and then conquered two of four galactic empires. During this LP, I made 335 screenshots, and due to random technical or my own faults, there should be kinda 10 or so more. Well, happens ;p

Although Cardassians and Klingons remained, their fleets are no match for us. In time, we will broker non-aggression with them, and after that, peace, that will unite this galaxy for decades to come.

Thanks all who were watching, especially the captains and admirals. Without you, the LP would be bland because I wouldn't feel so obligated to get us through all this.

Of course, special thanks to ivanthe8th for sharing his knowledge and experience in this game. Without him I would be propably still struggling over petty, easy things.

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! ^_^

Cya around guys! And Qapla'! *wink wink nudge nudge* ;3

3/5

My actual DF version is 99.99% pure.

That remaining 00.01% is custom color palette.

Harpe:

To: Harpe, Novice Pilot
From: Sergei Romanov, First Officer

Due to my recent conversation with Captain, after reviewing your performance, we decided to nominate You as the official squad leader of Scylla's suits. Please report to Captain's ready room immediately.
That was the whole message.

You could say so

Everyone:

"Warning. Night shift begins. All non-essential personnel is advised to take a rest." The intercom shouted in all corridors and rooms.

Dylan:

"Novice pilot Dylan Bowmen, please report to the Captain's ready room." The computer spoke the message right above Dylan's head.

Kira:

Unfortunately, Kira's mind preferred to dream against her wishes. She was in large hangar, with no one else but late Tsuchi. He was standing and just staring into the front of them, and in front of them, there was a mecha. Green, rather smooth and curvy. Rather familiar sight.

The mecha lifted it's hand and swung it at Tsuchi, who didn't moved an inch. Kira couldn't move, barely breathing was possible for her. Just as the fist smashed her teammate against the floor, there was a thunderous explosion and suddenly Kira was again in her quarters, staring at the dark ceiling.

The old poll was a tie: 3 votes for wiping our Romulans, then colonization, and 3 votes for killing everything

New poll. Just for example thing, in my previous game, I had Zakdorn refuse my bribes for 100+ turns before they abandoned Ferengi and switched sides. Cast your votes and ultimately decide what to do with the Andorians!

Andorian minor race bonus: Academy which basically works like Starfleet/Zakdorn Academy. Not to mention we don't have to get that 550 million people + infrastructure to rebuild.

I will save that for the next LP, where I will be Klingons
