At the beginning of this planet a unique humanoid species erupted into view, finding a small mountian pass that they slowly forged into a home. They themselves were grey bodied humanoids, skin with the texture of metal but the strength of normal skin, only multicolored eyes covered in glass to tell them apart with no other facial features to speak of. Thier central systems consisted of 2 small crystals matching the eye color that functioned as a brain and heart respectively. Eventually they began forming the knowledge of weaponry to protect themselves from the overly hostile and deadly creatures covering the planet. Years upon years later they formed a functioning city and fortress for themselves, finding the hollows of platinum covering the planet that they became named for. They began the expansion, though thier military style of quality over quantity quickly spread them thin, where a small mafia of sorts formed and took control of the capital and over the next year held it from the actual owners as the army reformed itself. This nation would plague them to this day, still holding a smaller continent on the world, about the size of irl australia, though a far different climate. Never the less they won and forced them away, and they elected a new leader. This leader had a power not many had ever seen, the ability to split himself into clones of so far maximized at nine. Using this he engineered his own armor, using a clone in it calling it his personal bodygaurd “overdrive.” he seems to be fairly nice when he needs to be, but hes a trained soldier and always keeps a full set of body armor on minus the helmet, designed to be more flexibile, also carrying a sidearm smg pistol and a plasma sword, just in case. As the nation moved along it finnaly made its way into space, colonized its system and began exploring, becoming known slowly. The nation is trying to exist as it is, and interactions seem to be simple, just try not to anger them or they will not threat to go hard very fast. They continue forwards finding the species and nations of this galaxy they are now in, and they seem to have brought thier people first and quality over quantity strategy with them.
Spirilian: robotic in looks with no facial features to speak of other than multicolored eyes and metallic skin.
Small, only 1 solar system, though colonies are slowly starting in nearby ones.
The main leader usually goes by the nickname “overdrive” though his real name is jake terticus. Has the ability to split himself into 9 clones, though they get progressively weaker.
The only real sub-organizations are the police force which is really just a smaller form of the military, and the 2 companies of the planet. Cyro industries the company that gets all the resource for everything, and psychosis, who leads basically every other industry of production. Except the military, the military is seperate.
No religion
Citizens are treated as the maximum priority to protect, and are often kept as safe as possible, though it can be hard at times. There's about 4.3 billion people
There are 2 main military groups, the generalist military and the generalist navy. Both use the same principle of quality over quantity, so they often have fleets of decently strong ships but not many. Their military consists of 5 fleets, only 2 having a heavy cruiser. They also have around 11.3 million soldiers, split across everything.
Offense and weapons.
Weaponry usually is hard to produce, but powerful. The bulk of the guns they use are railguns, though there are some lighter pistols and rifles sometimes.
These railguns are very effective guns for infantry and upsized for ships can leave a huge hole through the center of ships they can nail a good hit on.
Some of the larger ships also have EMP missiles, designed to destroy shields.
Also cannons, plasma shells. do I really need to explain cannons? Yes apperently. They use plasma engines to power a launcher that is basically just a buffed gunpowder launcher.
shields
Their own shields consist of a plasmatic energy projector, good against shells and such, though energy weapons can hit them hard and drain power fast. Also when 2 connect they fuse and form a larger shield around the group and removing the barriers in between the ships.
movement/propulsion
For propulsion they mostly use a graviton lance, abusing physics and gravity in space for a quick jump. Though they do have smaller plasmatic thrusters that allow moving around smaller distances and getting out of orbit.
They also have a specialized teleporter that must be synced with another for it to work, and can teleport individuals to different places and ranges from almost a solar system away if powered properly.
defense
Their main planet has an intense grid of gigantic plasma railguns to shred any ships trying to attack, and they use standard radios, though very long distant. The orbital railgun platforms consist of about 50 railguns that can move over a giant hydraulic grid around the planet allowing them to move wherever needed.
They also have a specialized teleporter that must be synced with another for it to work, and can teleport individuals to different places and ranges from almost a solar system away if powered properly.
engines
Just about all of these run on their plasmatic engines, specialized things that are meant to be non volatile when destroyed, and give off more energy than normal engines, though are much larger.
Computation
All current weapons used on ships and the defence grid use a grid that finds the ships full hull shape to determine if its one of theirs, and also if it's with any actual of there ships.if that fails it will scan the genetics and bodies of the inhabitants. If that also fails then it will contact an automated message for the ships to stay in place. If they don't then force shall engage in the form of emp shells. If further resistance is met they use their more lethal plasmatic shells.
