//Notes:

Planets Awarded
1. Tiss’sharl will not be awarded to the Fel Empire via this thread: http://starwarsrp.net/topic/20428-tyrannosaurus-tyranny-fel-imperium-sith-invasion-of-tisssharl/#entry259776
2. Kalee will not be awarded to the Fel Empire via this thread: http://starwarsrp.net/topic/20050-the-7th-circle-invasion-of-kalee/
Reason: Significant Shenanigans.

Current valid invasions still ongoing will be awarded to their victors.

Planets Added
1. Susevfi was not added to the map as requested, because it is a moon of Suarbi 7. There are a few moons on the map, but all of them are of vast significance regarding canon lore (Nar Shaddaa being a good example.) Please do not request insignificant moons to be placed on the map.
2. Quarzite has been added to the map, just above Bestine on the Corellian Trade Spine.

Faction Deterioration
First Strike: Black Sun Syndicate Deteriorates Due To February’s Failed Check-In By 1/3rd.

Map Events
1. By popular majority vote of its members: The Sith Empire is disbanded and loses all Major Faction benefits, including its Influence Cloud.
Thread: http://starwarsrp.net/topic/20248-important-poll/

2. Celebrations: The Galactic Republic, The Mandalorians, and The Fel Empire celebrate after the fall of the Sith Empire, gaining a significant boost in Influence.

Downfall....

If someone could resubtitle that scene with Hitler I would love it.

 

[Syn]

and so the land grab begins.

 

[Moira Skaldi]

Scramble for the Rim!

 

[Jak Sandrow]

And the guns turn towards the southern triad.... LoTF, OP, and CIS...

 

[Syn]

@[member="Jak Sandrow"] the guns turn towards not the south they turn towards peace and expansion. This is a brave new world

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

Like all utopian brave new worlds the only results are terror, oppression and war.

But I might be wrong.

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

And because I couldn't resist:

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: `Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear --
"My name is Kaine Zambrano, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.'

(With apologies to Mr Shelley)

 

[Nikolas Faselli]

It looks so... empty without the Sith Empire.

 

[Gorba the Hutt]

It looks so... empty without the Sith Empire.

Like a Phoenix... we will

RISE ​

 

[Khantor Ruu]

Woah, crazy how this all happened so fast.

 

[Moira Skaldi]

I do wonder how long it will take before the members of the Coalition fall out and squabble over territory.

'The Fels are our enemy, the Fels have always been our enemy."

 

[Nyxie]

> Thought the map was finally clear and there'd be room for new factions.
> Everyone goes on a landgrabbing spree like their life depended on it. -.-

Ironically enough, I don't think the Sith disbanded just so the Republic can take it lol.
Hey. Brilliant idea. There should be an anti-monopolization rule. o.o

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

Survival of the fittest, powerful factions grow factions that have reached the end of their life either wither away, merge, or go poof. The only problem is when one faction is so strong it can smash every other faction to dust. At that point it would start to hurt the board, as it would drive away anyone who doesn't want to be in the big faction.

@[member="Ashelotte Saybin"]

Actually totally sympathetic to that entire train of thought.

 

[Ayden Cater]

I've heard tales, rumors and myth really, of an ancient set of rules that had been crafted. They say that these rules were meant to give rise to rebellions in the largest of factions, that no one faction could be unapproachable and permanent.

But the darkness came, and the rules were lost. Some say the rules never existed, that they were the feverdream of madmen.

But I believe Aang can save the- Wait, wrong universe.

But I believe Velok can screw us all.

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

I believe that the Fel, Mandos and Republic have partitioned the Sith like Poland in the 18th century.

But which is which? Surely the Mandos must be Prussia, the Republic - Russia and Fel - Austria? Hmm.

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

Did Russia claim all of Poland and demy Austria and Prussia from getting anywhere near?

 

[Valiens Nantaris]

@[member="Akio Kahoshi"] They would have if they could have gotten away with it, but that's not what's happening here. Look at the pattern of the Republic's dominions and you will see they are all below a certain line.

I guess provision has been made for the Mandos and Fel, based on this.

 

[Akio Kahoshi]

That's the line I got @[member="Tamara"]
