Just In case it was today, also including a bit of IC for all characters involved:
Happy Birthday To You,
Happy Birthday To You,
Happy Birthday Dear Admiral Sharpe
Happy Birthday To You.
Gives Sharpe a big present wrapped in shiny paper.
Sharpe unwraps the box and says “Oh thank you Garan, a Box of Neptunian Chocolates, the best in the Galaxy! You are my favourite cadet ever!” Sharpe hands a sheet of Paper to Garan, granting him overall command of a line breaker squadron, and his own dreadnought.

I know pluto has the best ice cream, but neptune has the best chocolate.
Garan pulls out another present, this time a large cilindrical object, also wraped in shiny paper. He hands it to Sharpe. She pulls the paper off and look inside. "Oh Garan," she says, "A tub of the best Plutonian Ice Cream, my favorite flavor too!" She hands him another piece of paper, promoting him to admiral.

The game is still going, I am waiting for a response on my latest IC from Harrab.
I don't see it as a problem to have a light hearted joke sometimes, as long as it doesn't go on for to long without some serious posts and isn't in the main RP thread.

I'm still waiting for players to post their arrival on the Vangaurd, although if it takes much longer i'll do it myself, they've had long enough i think.

If you post what i find, ill post the arrival tonight if i have time, if not, tomorrow about 4o`clock (british time).

I don't have a problem with you doing it for me. While I'd love to and will do if I can find the time, mass homework and Space Hulk going absolutely insane is really tying me up.

Very well. I'll keep the ball moving. As for Space Hulk, have you thought of putting it on hold while you get everything sorted, either way I'm willing to help you with it.

Prototype/Experimental Ship Systems
Although most Alliance ships are pre-designed with a specific function in mind with the most cutting edge tech of the day, the constantly evolving nature of Humanity's technological advancement means that its takes very little time for a ship or system to become outdated or obsolete, so most Alliance ships are modular in function, able to swap out or replace damaged or unwanted hard-points, to ensure that no matter how old a ships hull, it can still serve Humanity for decades or even centuries.
Several of the Alliance Navy's Research and Development Companies take advantage of this system in order to gather incredible accurate field data for their newest weapons and systems by grafting them onto Vessels already on active duty, cutting development time by incredible amounts. Although dangerous to the host vessel in that they may find their new system temperamental or find it takes up an unfeasible amount of space, most captains are happy to accept these risks in exchange for the unique edge it gives them and the fact that by taking this gamble, the data they gather makes the Alliance and Humanity stronger.
Player ships may only take one of the following
Offensive Systems (Replaces all Offensive Hard-points and Launch bays)
Kinetic Strike Cannon, AKA "Rods From God."
Developed by Blackwater Weapons Tech (USA) this massive spinal cannon fires similar sized spears tipped with a shield scrambling warhead at near light speed, these massive projectiles can tear apart a cruiser class vessel or devastate a ground target from orbit in a single shot, but puts a lot of stress on the firer's superstructure, meaning its captain must be careful to limit use until he/she can correct for the immense recoil, or risk having his own ship torn apart.
Pros: Deals 8 points of damage per shot/Ignores shields
Cons: Spinal Mount: captains must point entire ship to track target
Immense Recoil: causes 2 points of Damage to firing ship per shot
Solar Flare Microwave Emitter
A Europa Defense Initiative development, the Solar Flare has two settings, lethal and non-lethal, and was intended for Alliance forces tasked with rescuing slaves from pirate bases, on non-lethal, the ship fires a burst of radiation that penetrates the hostile ship's hull and makes every person on board feel that their entire nervous system is on fire, quickly rendering them helpless and vulnerable to boarding actions. On lethal, the feeling is real.
Pros: Continued firing can cripple a ship without damaging its hull/killing any friendlies
Cons: Sustained bombardment: Must remain on target for several rounds dependent on hostile ship class for full effect
Low power: Cannot penetrate shields
Hailstorm Multiple Missile System
Latest design from British firm, Orion Industries, this Multiple Missile Launcher systems solves the problem of hostile point defenses with a simple method" Overwhelm them. When fired each Launcher on the ships hull fires up to five missiles, these projectiles then independently tack and close with their target, their sheer numbers and rapid speed rending ESM and point defenses almost useless. On the downside the explosive yield of each missile is significantly smaller than regular torpedoes, requiring multiple hits to perform similar damage.
Pros: sheer number of missiles fired at regular weapon speed/ bypass basic defensive systems
Cons: Unleash the storm: Missiles choose own targets.
Low yield: three hits are required per point of damage caused
Defensive Sytems (replace all Defensive Hardpoints and Launch-bays)
Silent Running Stealth Generator
Ships with this subsystem developed by Japan's Shogun Defense Corporation hark back to the Submarines of old earth, silent stalkers of the void, able to loiter in hostile space and report troop movements, land operatives upon enemy worlds, or ambush unsuspecting ships. This Generator bends light around it's ship's hull and masks all energy emissions, and while it may demand massive amounts of power and therefore require their captain to think before he strikes, lest he be anilated by the counter attack, the advanates this could bring if fully developed could reshape space comabt.
Pros: renders the ship invisible to both visual and sensor sweeps
Cons: Think before you act: Shields cannot be charged or maintained while stealth field is active
Scrambled Targeting: Ship must de-cloak to fire.
Valkyrie's Vengeance Defensive System
Developed by Scandinavian Solutions Inc, this network of hull plates and targeting systems favor the aggressive, in-your face captains, essentially, their plan of action is to take hits, as whenever the sophisticated computer system register a hit on its hull, it immediately tacks the fire to its source and counter-attacks, using advanced auto-loaders and Ion-cannon energy storage banks to quickly ready the retaliatory strike, although these additions can tax a warships power generators.
Pros: + 50% hull/ when fired upon ship makes an immediate counter-attack with all weapons
Cons: Power drain: -50% shields
Sluggish: Ship speed is reduced. (frigate becomes as fast as a cruiser, a cruiser becomes as fast as a battleship etc.)
Smart Metal Minelayer
Throughout Human history mines and explosive devices have been used to deny movement through certain areas, and this Descartes Corporation system allows Alliance ships to quickly and efficiently deny jump points or known ambush sites to the enemy. Upon Command, the ship can deploy dozens of plasma warhead Smart Mines in a wide cube around their ships location, then depart the area to watch the show from a safe distance.
Pros: Can cripple any hostile ship that blunders into the target area/ although much slower, mines can even track strike craft and follow them back to their carrier.
Cons: limited support: only one field can be maintained at a time
Slow and steady: mines can be destroyed by point defence and strike craft if detected early
