Kzinti Empire - offical empire thread

Published on November 15, 2007 By KzintiPatriarch In Metaverse

You have dared to enter the lair of the most ferocious predators in the galaxy!

It is the ulitmate destiny of the Kzinti to conquer the other civilizations of the galaxy, subjugate and enslave any who may prove useful to us, and devour the rest. The Fanged God has ordained that this is how it will be.

In just 26 octals of days (7 months or so...Kzinti count in base 8), the Kzinti Empire rose from obscurity, to #1 on the Metaverse. With the blessings of the Fanged God, we have remained dominant for 100s more octals of days since that auspicious day. We leapt past the other empires, and our mighty domain now encompasses over 32 million more light years than the second most powerful empire. The most recent Galactic Map data shows that we have subjugated over 45% of the galaxy. Many warriors from the old and dying empires have joined us, to avoid being eaten along with the rest. We hunger to establish indefinite supremacy over all the inferior sentient species...

We have also been #1 on the AltMeta for over 3 years running. The Empire grows more powerful with each passing day as new conquests are won, and more warriors join us in our inevitable rise to rule the galaxy!

The Kzinti are a species of bipedal space-faring feline predators, who love nothing more than conquest and battle. Created by sci-fi writer Larry Niven, the Kzinti have had many stories written about them, most notably in the Man-Kzin Wars series of books. They have also shown up in the Star Trek universe, and a number of other realities.

"Kzinti flesh has a very strong and pungent taste. The weak among us are devoured by their litter-mates within a few moons of birthing. Only the swiftest and most ferocious of us survive to their first naming-day. Those not fit to survive will never live to perpetuate their inferior bloodlines. This is the natural law of the galaxy." - Kzinti Warrior

"The meaning of life is the hot blood of your prey on your tongue, the meat that rends beneath your teeth, the corpse of your enemy left in the sun for the carrion eaters to finish, your defeated foe groveling in submission before you. That is what life is. We are the Kzinti, and we stronger, swifter, wiser, and more ferocious than any other race ever was or will be." - Kzinti philosopher

If your claws can grasp it, then it is rightfully yours. - Kzinti proverb

A salute to all those heroic t'kzintar who have made this empire a resounding success. Our conquests continue and the galaxy will never know peace!

A great welcome to our newest member and Hero (Senator), Lynx xxx! With his strength, plus some more new conquests, this puts us over the 12 million mark. It's truly a great day for the Kzinti Empire!

Wow...nice work!!

You could make another character and climb the ranks pretty quick with that one too if you wanted to. You've got a nice bit of bling there...if only the purple one would show up too.

the shadows of the Kur'sari empire are at your command patriarch...

As are the soldiers and sailors of the United Earth Empire.

Thank you General Homsar. At first the Kzinti dismissed the humans as grass-eating pacifists, but we quickly learned that they were surprisingly skilled warriors! We are honored to have them fight alongside our t'kzintar.

No problem. We do have one request, however: if you make war against the Venusians, leave thier home planet to us so we may extermnate them once and for all! The very thought of those scum coming from the same star system as Earth...it makes us sick.

Roleplaying aside, I should start submitting MV games pretty soon.

Long live the Empire!

KzinPat, in an earlier post you mentioned that Neilo can alter the stock races custom abilities (meaning super abilities), and still (apparently), qualify his games for the metaverse. Do you know how he does this? When I choose Altarian in DA, it gives me the usual 10 points to pick additional starting abilities but it doesn't allow me to alter thier super-ability. How does Neilo do this? Also, can you change ethical alignment for stock races as well and still have them be ok for metaverse games. Just wondering. Hope all is well.

Venusians….hrrrrr. That planet is way too hot for any Kzin, so you can do as you wish with it. It sounds like a good opportunity to hone your battle skills and tactics. Have at them! *gives Kzinti salute back…dragging all four claws across the face in a slashing motion* These Venusians can be your first conquest for the Empire.

This is referred to as Advanced Race Customization (ARC). Here is the link to one of the forum threads about it: WWW Link

With the forum search disabled, its hard to find info now. I know there is another thread somewhere with more specific info on changing the values. Maybe someone else knows and will chime in.

With DA you can do a lot within the game interface, by modifying a race and making a custom opponent, then choosing that race for yourself to play. Hope that helps.

Good luck getting your racial victory medal

Thanks! Those ZYW are very quick indeed (even though I missed the 0 year mark in several cases so far, I managed two)
Got the racial victory medal and climbed some 200 spots.

Those quickly captured planets will make some nice outskirts for our ever-growing empire...

They fled Venus when we destroyed thier invasion force, but slithering to another world won't save them!

If you need any help making an ARC TorontoRock drop me a Pm and i'll be happy to steer you through the process. Remember, only Homestar, Ethical Alignment and Super Ability can be changed, of course you can add you own logo and portraits as well.

Today the mighty Kzinti Empire has achieved something a long time in the making. We now are the empire with the highest all-time total points in the history of the game! Check out this pic from the AltMeta, where you will see that we are #1 in every empire category.

Congratulations everyone!!!

I noticed you posted your first 0-year wins Noctilucus....nice work! The Empire appreciates your conquests.

Hunt them down to the last being, and make sure you send a few over for us to...sample.

Thx a bunch for your offer Neilo, it's much appreciated. As difficult as this is for me to believe, I think I actually figured it out myself hehe

. Tested playing Altarians with Super ahhnialator ability and it worked for metaverse. Being able to alter super abilities and alignment with stock races will be cool for "real" games. It will also be cool to make some super custom races (with like 200% bonuses), and play against them, although they won't count for meta. Now I just have to figure out what the difference is between the homeworlds of the different races.

Gratz to all in empire for #1 status

. Hope all is well with everyone.
