Hi, i'm a newcomer to the forums but i have been playing with Cosmoteer for the past year. I'm sorry if I make some spelling mistakes, I'm still learning English. I hope you will like my first faction and some of my medium quality ships.
In the Northern Quadrant of the Barrionas Galaxy, ten great empire wage war one against another to dominate the quadrant. One of these empire is not like the others, for the Forgeborns are proud and merciful or at least they are toward their prisoners. they live on the North-East extremity of the Northern Quadrant.
- HOMEWORLD : Forgeworld Aquartus
Population : 14 billions
Diameter : 35.670km
Atmosphere : hospitable
- TERRITORY : 6 Systems, 33 planet and 8 colonies
The Crimson System is the name given to the Forgeborn Empire's territory. It borders the Armarak Empire to the west, the Yarheen Kingdoms to the south-west and the Werrshire Empire to the south-east.
- POPULATION : 37 Billions
- BELIEFS : God of Machines and Steel
The Forgeborns have great beliefs into their god, one whose flesh is made of unbreakable steel and whose heart is a complex machinery powered by an ancient star. This "god" is supposed to be an ancient construct built around a dying star from which the Forgeborn have originated, yet no sign of such fantastical structure has been found. Surprisingly they accept others beliefs and religions but a Forgeborn will fail his beliefs and never one will fall to another god's embrace. For any Forgeborn, the belief they have in their god and progenitor is what fuels their heart with life and purpose.
- DIPLOMACY : Relatively Friendly
Although the Crimson System is squeezed in the far corner of the galaxy and in constant strife with its neighbours, one may find allies within them. The Forgeborn are extremely friendly with factions which do not come from the Northern Quadrant, building secret trade routes outside the galaxy's borders.
Diplomatic status:
Armarak Empire : mortal enemies/at war
Yarheen Kingdoms : at war
Werrshire Empire : cease fire
Goldeonian Empire : at war
Thunderking's Cult : unfriendly
Automaton Great Expansion : at war
United Systems of Ambroyer : neutral
Great Coalition of the black Nebula : unfriendly
The Purple Empire : at war
- NAVY : The Red Hammer Fleets
The navy of the Crimson System is made up of 4 different corps : the Defence Corps, the Armoured Corps, the Mining Corps and the Domination Corps. Each corps has a very specific role within the Forgeborn deep space military. The Defence Corps is composed of orbital fleets and planetary defence stations. The Armoured Corps is made up of both reserve fleets within planetary shipyards, Invasion fleets and enormous patrol fleets flying throughout the Crimson System. The Mining Corps is specialized with protecting trade routes and mining operations in dense asteroid fields. And at last the Domination Corps, which is by far the smallest of all the navy corps, is used to blocus enemy planets and subjugate any rebelling colonies. The design of each vessel is based on the fiery hammer used by the Forgeborns'god to obliterate a powerful and ancient evil and fight the enemies of his children.
Melter R-23 class Fighter - manufactured by Toyota Heavy Engineering
The first model of the Melter class was a reconfigured mining ship to counter pirates in rich asteroid veins. Now it has become the symbol of the Red Hammer and the Forgeborns' go-to fighter.
