Reply to Snake People of the Mambani-History of a Galactic Civilisation (from someone who was there) in AARs GalCiv2 Forums

'Hear me Senate!' I cried in my most stentorian voice and raised both arms to the heavens as if in supplication, holding them there. This had the desired effect and slowly but surely the chamber quieted. I lowered my arms and composed myself, 'Yes it is a setback, and yes we are now in the fight of our lives but what do you think our forefathers would think if they could see you all wailing and crying like What'haaks?' I let the insult sink in, 'You dismay me-all of

Refuge also declared war: no lovers of their erstwhile slaves they. The Yor were now fighting on 3 fronts. Our early battles went according to plan with our Star Navy quickly overpowering the enemy fleet in orbit around their home planet-with no orbital defenses Per's fleet was able to take them piecemeal with our lighter armed craft. The only setback was the stunning loss of our planet Anaconda and the passing into the Endless sky of almost 12 billion of our brethren. Many on Mamba wailed and

B]8 March 2231, The Great Floor of the Senate, Mamba Prime[/B] Pandemonium. I tried to clear my head and focus on what I needed to say. There was a rising clamour from the assembled Senators-some in hysterics, I noted. I observed too that many in my own party had crossed the floor to show their solidarity with the Opposition. The Revered Shall'su was trying her hardest to make herself heard and quiet the baying mob. How had it come to this in just 18 months? My grand plans

Gad, my manservant-or was that my confidante-interrupted my musings: 'Senats'sos you should prepare-there is the ceremony to attend in the Senate-we only have an hour to get you ready' He smiled up at me-there was devotion in there, affection and something else? 'It was a great thing that you did My Lord putting our great race onto a path to Democracy-the people love you. All of them from Tiny Asp to mighty Python and especially here-they adore you' I scanned the you

22nd September 2229 The Senats'sos Private Chambers, Mamba Prime My manservant, Gad Citep'Merd, was an attentive, attractive lad who had become much more than a servant in the months and years that followed my being called to the post of Senats'sos. He was cast out from his nest and I took him in. It always makes me wonder how kindred souls find each other. From whatever walk of life-high aristocracy to outcast-they find each other... I had become obse

The general difficulty is 'Challenging' Background: My race are the Mambani-a distant but seperated offshoot of humanity (arent there many?) who started with bonuses in economics, trade, diplomacy and loyalty. My plan is to really go for a strong economy (Galactic Stock exchanges backed up by ma
