I've just finished the initial map. Here it is:
This is the state of the world in the year 2032. This political state was caused by an exodus of almost all nations from the UN in 2024 which dramatically reduced it's power, leaving many powerful nations free to expand into neighbouring nations and take over. In North America, Mexico and Canada declared war on the USA, leaving the US President no choice but to order an attack on both nations and estabilish the NAU or North American Union. Anarchy takes hold in Central and Southern America as military rebellions become dramatically more frequent, whereby the new NAU takes action and invades. In Europe, the EU attempts to forcefully abolish the identity of it's member states and thus creates the Europa League. The Europa League expands outwards into a new maritime empire, halted eventually by the NAU and the EAU and the crippling invasion of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In Africa, military coups manage to overthrow all governments and estabilish the Arfikaa nation, now struggling to hold off the Saudi advance. Across the north of Asia, Russia sees it's oppertunity and invades neighbouring nations en mass, forming the mighty Russian Empire. In the Middle East, Saudi Arabia aggresively expands into the rest of the Arabian Peninsula, successfully defeating the Europa League and the Russian Empire. In the Far East, Japan becomes militarised and manages to conquer a large sphere of territories, known as the EAU or Eastern Asian Union. It meets substantial resistance by the Europa League, the Russian Empire and Greater Korea who all manage to push them onto the defensive.
I've noticed that it's impossible to identify the smallest islands due to resolution. Here's the links to each individual island group:

The Undying.
I'd like to just point out something: The UN being powerful..ever...lol

It's easier to use than WinZip, and is also completely free. No demos to download.
Well, we can consider the UN has disintegrated from internal rupture. BTW, we've sort of moved onto the third era in the RP.
Here's the map for it: http://i454.photobucket.com/albums/qq270/EmberFive/Shattered%20Earth/Continuation/Shattered%20Earth%20continuation%202/4013.jpg.
Everything concerning Voganos has been moved here: http://forums.impulsedriven.com/355319
With their flagship destroyed and their leader nearly dead, the Tokyoians had a problem. But they were not going to let that stop them. Every person on every ship, every AI, every captain, every soldier had one thing on their mind: vengance. The Tokyoian fleet burst into a flurry of motion. Laser flashed and missiles thudded as the Tokyoians turned their rage on their enemies. The highest ranking survivor of the Quiver of Artemis, a comm officer named Evelyn took battlefield control and the fight began heating up. Hours passed, and the Kyotian fleet was decimated. As the surviovors turned to jump from the gravity well, jamming cruisers came forward and locked their hyperdrives. The Kyotian forces were massacerd to the last escape pod, and the Battle of New Tokyo was over.
Samurye.
At what cost though....
Upon the end of hostilities that day, New Tokyo was in shambles. The Artemis had collided with the planet's surface and caused ecological devestation of an unheard of extent. Enemy ground forces still continued to harass Flaming Ninja cities, and many volumes of priceless data on ages past were consumed by the battle itself.
To add on to this, while Tokyoian forces lost less than a third of their total forces, the Liberty armadas sent to aid them were completely decimated. Nearly 60% of all Liberty ships were either drifting or destroyed, and another 18% were disabled. Yet there was a bright side:
The Victory on this day further solidified Flaming Ninja resolve for revenge. Add on to that the Shock and Awe that the Kyotians tried to instill on Liberty forces backfired. Liberty governmental offices now turned their attention to full war production, using venerable Vetaron solar forges to completely renew the vast armadas within the span of a solar week and counting on the populace of Liberty worlds to crew these ships. Now with the infusion of Poly-Neutronium into ship hulls, these new fleets will have only one mission: Search for Kyotian worlds and Cleanse the Filth.
However, there is still the problem with the state of New Tokyo. The planet will be soon uninhabitable, so construction of an orbital superfortress has commenced. Under the Careful eye of the Flaming ninjas and utilizing every logistic unit in the Liberty Prime the majestic station now dubbed "The Citadel" is desigened to act as both a beacon of hope and a place to safely house all the remaninig documents of the Flaming Ninjas.
the following holo-vid is of the end of construction. The Citadel will be housed in the same gravity well as New Tokyo. In the foreground is the Liberty stealth frigate Normandy. you can see a Flaming Ninja dreadnaught in the immeadiate background as well as multiple Liberty battleships in a partol orbit.
Okay, so the plan (as I presume) is to launch an allied campaign into Kyotian space. Before that can start however, the Kyotian invasion of the CDS needs to be stopped.
well if you remember a few posts back, one of my fleets assisted your forces by retaking the Theroc Sector for you. Itll take a while, but i can have forces in the immeadiate area to accomodate CDS forces. It shouldnt be that difficult now since we eliminated a great deal of their forces.
Mabey we should emphasize on hammering the Kyotians soon. Earlier Today we found a timewight device that allows us to see to a select few dimensions. Only see for now, but it's effect should be noticed. Just look at what happens on Earth-1989 The Cold war never ended, and in the words of Martin Lawerence "This Shit just got real"

I have to oppose the one week thing. Too fast. The Coalition forces would not have let any Vetaron solar forges survive. The Library would not have been breached so easily, and so nothing was actually lost.
The Battle of New Tokyo had left the Ninjas hurt, but begging for vengance. Eventually Kyotian forces were driven from the surface. The construction of the Citadel was under way, and New Tokyo was being rebuilt. In these times, a religous revolution swept through the Library Order. Instead of preserving knowledge, they would use it to defeat their enemy.
Time went on. The forces of Liberty Prime drove the Kyotians from the CDS border. The Kyotians fell back and fierce bordser fights erupted. This fighting led to the Second Battle of New Tokyo, in which Kyotian forces jumped in without warning and began ravaging the Sanctuary fleets. The Kyotinas then deployed ground troops in an act that led to a fierce street-by-street fight that lasted 3 years. After this battle, a Kyotina prisoner reveald the they were, in fact, the Flaming Ninjas of New Kyoto. If the Library Ninjas had been mad before, they were now inflamed with rage. They now knew that their hated enemies were in fact heritical Ninjas. The focus of the Order shifted entirely to war. The mighty Ashi Forgeworlds began pumping out massive numbers of ships, among them the Stormbringer. The Stormbringer was the sucessor to the Quiver of Artemis, an ultracarrier 222 miles long, 50 miles across and 25 miles thick, carrying 6.25^12 drone fighters. The Library Inquisition was founded and tasked with rooting out those who opposed the war or the means taken to achieve it, and those who refused military service. Within a decade, the Order was prepared to carry out its Holy War.
The order was given, and the Kyotian Crusade began.
Library Order Scholars divide human history into several eras:
The Genesis Era: The time before World War III.
The Great Wars: World War III to World War IV.
The Golden Age: From the end of World War IV to the Vetaron War.
The Vetaron War: The Battle between the Vetaron Confederacy and the Coalition forces.
The Lost Millenium: The thousand years duirng which all FTL travelm was suspended.
The Restabilization: When FTL travel became possible again. Current age.
The Great Crusade: Upcoming.
so you have 3.5 billion fighters or 6.25 trillion?
In the past decade, advanced OEM and Liberty manufacturing methods, combined with enhanced trading and research out of Nueva Terra to the ACP, have unveiled new forms of defence that are incredibly resilient to all current ninja weaponry and have cooked up a cocktail of techs designed to bypass most forms of defence in the galaxy. forge worlds powered by singularity generators can produce thousands of cruiser sized ships daily, or tens of carrier sized ships weekly.
I'm not sure quite how many fighters that is, my calculator dosen't go that high. I'm working on finding out though.
Also, advanced manufacturing methods? In less than 20 years? With no Library intervention? I don't think so.
Where is Nueva Terra?
Why are you trying to build Ninja proof ships?
Remember, this is not the Galaxy as you remember. We are (most of us) in a Technological Dark Age. The Tokyoians and the Kyotians are the only ones with truely advanced technology, and now the Ashi are to, because of their friendship with the Order.
You have, all of you, had your day in the sun. Powerful leaders, the movers and shakers of the galaxy. But we have never had that chance. In the Great Wars, we had strength aplenty, but no way to use it. We were subject to the whims of weaker nations. Not a soul respected us, and we had no real power.
In the Vetaron wars, we were confined to a small area of space, incapable of really changing anything, and now, during the Restabalization, even though we have all the technology, all the knowledge, we are still forgotten! Only the Ashi have ever payed attention to us, and for that they will be rewarded greatly!
We have always played second fiddle, but no more! No longer will we be the slaves of lesser men! We have been shunned, forgotten, and underestimated, but now is our time to shine! All will bow, and we will be acknowledged! If we have to conquer a hundred thousand worlds and fight a hundred million years, so be it! WE! WILL! HAVE! RESPECT! We will ascend to our rightful place in the seats of power, be it hand in hand with you or over your smoking corpses.
Remember that.
you will remember that i sacrificed many of my ships and built an Uber fortress for you....right?
Also, there were some obvious errors on my part chronologically speaking, so allow me to clear this all up. Appearently this is years after the initial invasion of the CDS so lets set the table at about 15 or so?

Year 3:
-Feburary : 1st battle of New Tokyo begins.
-April : 1st battle of New Tokyo ends.
Year 4:
-June : Old Vetaron Solar Forges discovered in Liberty space. Updated and activated for usage

-December : 2nd battle of New Tokyo ends. Kyotian forces executed in public show.
Year 14:
-September : 2nd Battle of Theroc ends any threat of Kyotian domination of the CDS.
Year 15: Current Year
With the beginning of the Kyotian Crusade, Santuary forces sweep into Kyotian space. Their first target, a nearby mining world, is quickly wiped clean of enemy ships. A Shatterer class bombardment platform modified with plasma cannons, turns the entire plnetary surface to glass within hours. Heavy power-armoured troops are dropped from orbit to purge the last hiding places of Kyotians. The current plan for the Crusade is that no Kyotians, none at all, are to be left alive. The Sanctuary battlegroup then moves on to the next planet.
Nueva Terra is the OEM science and trade colony. It used to be Terratron until we colonized it.
I have remained out of the major Tokyo-Kyoto battles until this point, and have only sent scout ships to gather data on both sides weaponry and defences. These defences that I have remain largely untested save for what few weapons could salvaged from wayward Kyotian ships, and have been developed for the FNSI/potential Kyotian surpise attack.
The major leaps in manufacturing techniques have mostly been stripped from the computer cores of the aforementioned Kyotion ships, but several have come from Hydrogue empire remnants that I have come into contact with in the Andromeda galaxy.
THER! IS! NO! FNSI!!!!
Well, mabey now there is....
I was about to suggest making it. For now, I'm going to update the map only at a critical stage, with my time still preoccupied on RP Guild.
the answer is:
3,552,713,679 fighters so you round it up to 3.6 billion strikecraft
well since the number of years that went buy my supership is completed and ready for interplanetary travel.
Its is called Ildia Redemption, massive by far of any ship so far made by us, its still smaller then Artmis. Its equiped with some mysterious artifacts tand anchient coordinates that we pulled off our past ship graveyards.
So we set sights to an origin coordinate Majistra hoping to get back to our mother galaxy, the milky way. It took several minutes to warm up it engines to travel to the next galaxies then it dissapeers from space and enter right above Majistra. Foriegn start attacking us, without warning our artifacts start up on auto, a planetary shield wraps around the planet and us was produced by the ships defenses, and our lasers and beam cutters start ripping away the foriegn ships which we later found out to be kyotian.
yeah wasnt sure if he meant 6.25^12 or 6.25*10^12
Can i play this RP?
Anyone's welcome to join with permission, but first your place in the RP has to be thought up.
Is there a quick way to win the war?
*shakes EBF*
Up up down down left right left right square triangle?
ok my faction controls the neutral space north of the 2 Major empires, we specilize in espionage and science, we never torture our own people for information, but the enemy (everyoneelse) is fair game ( think 10 Jack Bowers with The lastest in cybernetic and psionic torture tech) our capital is a Dual world a city planet and an agriculutral world which is why my capital wasnt destroyed During the Fall.
our military is fairly small but has lots of advanced weaponry and are highly trained
since my Nation is still small i would like to request an Alliance with the other Nations in exchange i would allow them to Borrow my Bower clones.
*Note Expanding at 5 parsecs a second Negotions with Neutral states begins*
Hey look another EBF!
*Shakes EBF*
.....
OH MY GOD NOOOOO!!!!
Nope, there's only one EBF, here in Segen. You almost certainly have a replica.
