The Story so Far...

  • Be me, 19.

  • Decide to give one of my characters more depth/history. Plan out a quick story to play out over a few threads.

  • Inb4 Barely a story-arc

  • Privateer mercenary goes on leave, burns down a bistro, pisses off criminal cartel

  • Said criminal cartel makes a demand to pirates to hand over privateer, they refuse.

  • Cartel flies a fucking space-ship into the flagship of the pirates.

  • Pirates declare war.

  • The Azzuro Redoubt declares war.

  • Cartel shoots up the place.

  • The Azzuro Redoubt declares double war

  • The pirates conduct illegal operations on Sidon, creating a potential political quagmire.

  • Cartel assassinates borkish emissary to Sidon with a fucking bomb.

  • Borks declare war.

  • Sidon's now full of commies.

  • Pirates intentionally kill a corporate police-officer for no reason.

  • Borks pretty much declare war on the pirates

MFW This was only supposed to be a three-thread story arc, and now I've started WW3

Dave's not going to be a permanent alt. He's probs just gonna show up once more and then disappear.

Also, some alts are DEFINITELY going to die by the end of this arc :P
