20140129 - Currently we are working on making a new website for the faction, as soon as it is done we will port all information over to it and this thread will be used for diplomacy and recruitment. Also, ranks are being made and will be posted here as soon as they are done. Everyone will start as a recruit/E-1 unless they can show a set of skills that show a higher rank or place on the council are necessary. If someone is good with making banners or skins then that will guarantee a rank in our faction. Or banner must include U.E.S.C., and our motto "In stellis ortum certa evadat. Percutient, dignissim cursum.".

Updated this thread with new information as far as ranks, jobs, etc. Will be adding a logo as soon as it is made and a picture of the ranks. Also looking for someone who knows how to create skins for our military uniforms as they need the ranks on the right shoulder, U.E.S.C. on the left chest, a placeholder for names on the right chest, a placeholder for the factions logo and ship patch (every ships crew will have their own custom designed patches) on the left shoulder, and a camo pattern for the skin. I'm thinking Digital or Multicam style with black, white, and grey.

Hello, I just bought the game today so I don't know that much about it, but i'm getting the hang of it. I would like to work and learn within your organization. I'm not sure exactly what position i'm most interested in probably and engineer or an officer.

 

Hey guys! im your man for the camo and skins! Ive already set up a thread where I have applied a camo and patch as well as a rank symbol to my own sort of uniform and am very interested in doing this for you guys. Let me know please.
Steam : dxlphin
Link to my thread https://forums.keenswh.com/post/space-camouflage-ready-for-dl-at-semodz-6689746?highlight=camo

 

SESkinsAndModels - I am familiar with your custom skins, they are exactly what I am needing I just didn't want to steal another mans skins for my faction . Thank you though, If I send you the ranks and everything do you think you could add them to your skins? I'll need one made specific for each member as their names will be on the skins.

Dalton132 - We could have you as an engineer but since you are still so new to SE you'll have to start
as an E-2 untill we can get someone to teach you some basic and advanced building in the game. I
cannot do this as the internet on my base sucks and I will not be able to get to some better internet till I am stateside again.

 

Just another update guys and gals. I will unfortunately be offline for a month from Feb 15th on. The internet here in Afghanistan will not be working for that period of time. When it does happen I will be turning the faction leadership over temporarily to one of our members until I can get back on. I will also be checking in when and if I can. Sorry for this, but if you have ever been here you know what it is like.

I'm hoping that in my absence that this group will grow and that I can come back presently surprised at how well this group can work in the event that I am gone for awhile again. Thanks again to everyone who has joined and has been working with us through alliances and treaties.

If you feel up to the task of leading while I am gone, then this is the perfect opportunity for those looking for leadership/officer roles in the faction. So PM me and we will see what we can work out.

Also, if you haven't been paying attention, we finally have someone willing to make custom skins for us (Thank you SESkinsAndModels.) and all we need now is for someone to design the logo described in
the OP. If you feel like your a good artist, post your ideas/creations here and let us see what you have
come up with.

Freeadama89 - Supreme Chancellor - U.E.S.C.

"In stellis ortum certa evadat. Percutient, dignissim cursum."

 

Who will be in charge that you can put me in touch with? Can we get a steam group going?
Also- Will these nametags, etc. be done in english, or because this is in the future be done in a more futuristic font? I had done a concept flag in that thread, just to show you what would be possible. I also actually made unit patches before haha. All using that font along the way.
What I thought what was awesome about that font was there are tons of similarities to English characters and some entirely new to the alphabet, so you can see that there would be some evolution from present day, to the time of the U.E.S.C.
My concept flag for my old nation with the font:

 

Well, considering that the setting of the game is supposed to be 2070 if I remember correctly (correct me if I'm wrong), I doubt language would evolve that much. I figured the name-tapes would be in English and would be peoples steam or in-game names.

As far as who will be in charge, I'm still debating. I have almost two weeks to decide so I have time to think on that decision.

And with the steam group, I am working on that as we speak. I have some time during the evenings to work on this kind of stuff, but I am still on call 24-7. As such it can be a little rough to work on some things. I have some other people on the forum who know my situation and are also military/ex-military and have volunteered to help me if I need it.

 

ahh okay. I didnt see this and I whipped up a logo with the alien font but ill change this to english straight away. Basically to give you an idea (since this is just a proposal) The bottom is "United Earth Space Corps" And the text around the seal is your latin motto on your forum signature.

 

I like the idea, but yes it should be in english. If no one else has anything as an idea for our logo then yours will be it

Steam ID: LuckerNr1

Position Desired: I would like to start as an Architect or an Engineer, but i'm also open minded about other jobs.

Experience: I bought the game in November 2013. From the beginning i specialized on constructing small, efficient ships, because i think when ressources are finaly implemented attaching just 100 reactors wont work anymore. So i decided to make my ships as light and efficient as possible. Most of them are lighter then 10.000 kg, need only 16-32GW and are nevertheless good protected and strong.

Short Bio: My Name is Pascal, 18 years old, living in Germany, studying mechatronics at Heilbronn University. My English is not perfect, but hopefully good enough.


I would be really glad to join your corps!
LuckerNr1

 

Welcome to the group LuckerNr1. We can start you out as an Engineer, but if you show me some of your work/creations then you might be upgraded to an Architect.

 

Added some more to our steam page. Still working on the website at the moment during my free time, which I should have some coming up soon. If you have any questions PM me on here or on the steam page. On a side note, all members must join the steam page. It is a way for me to keep accountability for how many people we have and what they do in our group. Thanks again to everyone who has helped in making this group grow.

Steam ID: Finwolf

Desired Position: Pilot or Marine

Expierence: Played the game for about 6-7 months now. I like to build heavy fighters and interceptors. I also have a soft spot for penetration and boarding.

Bio: My name is Markus. I'm 25 years old. I currently work as a command center operator in private security. I'm in active reserve and I serve as a staff sergeant (Jaeger, QRF).

Welcome to the team Finwolf, We could always use more marines or pilots. If you are good at making fighters, we could use a new design for one. Also if you haven't yet, please join our steam page.
Also guys, sorry I haven't been on for a few days. I was gone on a mission and just got back to my main base.

 

Steam ID: [TSC] Cramat

Position Desired: Councilor of the Masons / Architect

Experience: Me and a friend of mine bought the game around christmas, but did not enjoy it that much, so we decided to wait for the multiplayer before playing the game seriously. I see myself viable as Councilor of the Masons due to my experience in strategical things, e.g. I play a damn load of strategic games and am always open to improvements regarding infrastructure and such. But as the corps is rather small at this early point, I would like to apply as an architect if that helps the corps more. Those pictures of a medium-sized ship which I designed when I started first, should work as proof.

Short Bio: My name is Paul, I am 18 y/o and from germany. I am about to graduate from the German equivalent of college. My english skills are rather outstanding and I should be able to communicate with everyone quite well.

 

@[TSC] Cramat - We could use someone to help in a leadership position if you are willing to be the Councilor of Masons. I really like you design concepts, they look like ships you would see in the Homeworld series. Especially impressed with the hanger and comm. center. The central hanger entrance in the floor was especially interesting. I'm more partial to what you would see in starcitizen as far carriers go, but I am still impressed with your concept.
Like I said, if you want, we can make you a Councilor. Or if you prefer we can keep you as an architect till the group gets bigger. Welcome to the team Cramat, and hope to see you ingame soon.

Freeadama89

 

Lets welcome [TSC] Cramat as our new Councilor of Masons. Welcome to the team. Since he is the highest so far in the command, if I am gone he will take charge.
