Questions: You've mentioned that our ships have refineries, factories, and labs. I assume they also have command and control, troop training areas & barracks, and a hangar-bay. Anything else notable? How long will they be available for?
How much can we sell minerals for?


Team Two

Armament Design: Scavenger laser pistol, a cheap and easy to use weapon.
Military surplus flak vest, a light armor imported from off-world. Provides very basic torso protection against laser and ballistic weaponry.
Military surplus laser carbine, a durable laser gun important from off-world. Cheaply manufactured.

Recruit:

4 squads of militia, 5 each, equip with surplus military laser carbines and flak vests. spend $500 to purchase equipment if others agree to the expenditure.

2 squads of heavy infantry, 3 each, equipped with carbines and flak jackets as above and a man-portable mining laser with power pack (one per squad, 2 men to transport and set up)

Seconded, but give the heavy infantry Scavenger laser pistols instead of carbines. Give them all very low training for now. Prioritize a militia squad and Mineral Shuttle and have them on standby for reinforcing the expeditionary force. If purchasing military surplus equipment will take too much time for them to be ready for the battle, just arm them with laser pistols for now.

Buildings:

Confirm the mining well.
Build a spaceport.

TEAM ONE

I suggest we work on the Drill Grounds, A Conscript Barracks, AND A MOVIE THEATER. The troops could use the theater to relax and improve morale, and we can use it to get some income!

[Chiefwaffles]

Onboard facilities will always be available, but they'll not be that amazing. While you'll always have the ship's labs, ground labs will be a lot better. The Refineries/Nano Factories can only produce small(like a gun, light armor, etc) items, etc. Same goes for all the facilities. Your assumptions are correct, and I'll introduce them when needed. Assume that the ship has almost everything you need (unless it's a special design) for the first while, but keep in mind ship facilities are inefficient.

Also, training works like this:
Design a unit. Design them as "special forces" level of skill. Bam. The design is done. However, the skill level effects how long it will take to recruit those units, and the base price for the units. If you have a supersoldier with super skills, you'll probably have to pay a lot for the soldier himself, and wait a while to train him (time would be effected by training facilities and maybe barracks) before you can fully utilize said supersoldier. I may implement individual skill eventually, but probably not.

Minerals would probably sell at about a 1:2 rate. One unit equals two credits. Subject to change.

First, the armor and vehicle classification systems.

Team One; Coalition of Sovereign Independent Colonies

Armor Design:

An example suit:

M03-E2.sm Mark IIIc "Voicebox" Vehicle Operations and Interface Suit

And a breakup of what each one means.

M | 0 | 3 | -E | 2 | .s | m | _Mark III | c | _"Voicebox" | _Vehicle Operation & Interface Suit

• M: Protection Type;
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  The primary type or manner of protection the armor affords. Rarely changes from M. Non-M classifications specialize in a specific type of damage protection at the expense of others. Dual combinations are denoted by the secondary type being lower-case; more than two will only be variants, and such will be specified in their design.
  

  • M = Multi-Type/General
  • N = Nanotech Shielding/Explosive
  • D = Deflection/Kinetic
  • R = Refractive/Thermal/Energy
  • S = Stealth/Electronic Warfare
  • C = CQB/Melee
• 0: Armor Size;
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  The approximate external size of the armor; ranges from 0-6, though the upper limit may be raised later. 0 is the only designation not typically environmentally sealed, though it may be.
  

  • 0 = Non-Environmentally Sealed, Very Light; typical for non-combat or secondary protection purposes(think of the armor modern soldiers, spec ops and such in particular, wear)
  • 1 = Light, Mobile, Non-Enhancing; typical for reconnaisance, recruits, and snipers(think of scout armor or such from basically any sci-fi game/movie/book etc.)
  • 2 = Medium-Light, Assault, Self-Supporting; typical for heavy reconnaisance, special operations, and combat medics(think typical armor, especially power armor, from most sci-fi things; Space Marine armor is heavier, however, for reference)
  • 3 = Medium, Assault, Low Enhancement Ability; typical for combat engineers, mechanized infantry, storm troopers, and heavy weapons specialists(now we're to about Space Marine power armor)
  • 4 = Medium-Heavy, Power, Moderate Enhancement Ability, Basic Integrated Weapons Systems; typical for explosives specialists, drop troops, and CQB specialists(not easy to find something to show this specifically, at least not specific examples; think armor that can't quite yet be called 'heavy', but is still bulkier and more powerful than basically anything not heavy armor)
  • 5 = Heavy, Protection, Good Enhancing Ability, Lockdown Capability, Integrated Weapon Systems; typical for heavy armor specialists, human weapons platforms, and siege engineers(now think really heavy power armor, Terminator equivalent)
  • 6 = Super-Heavy, Fully Mechanised, Weapons Platform; typical for utility, heavy weapons platforms, and rough terrain infantry support(basically a light walker, not power armor anymore, but a Sentinel or ATST would be larger(also, this has arms 'n shit))
• 3: Purpose;
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  What this design of armor is meant to be used for generally.
  

  • 0 = General/Multi-Purpose
  • 1 = Engineering/Utility
  • 2 = Medical/Scientific
  • 3 = Vehicle/Remote Operations
  • 4 = Reconnaisance/Subterfuge/Electronic Warfare
  • 5 = Drop Insertion/Rapid Strike
  • 6 = Close Quarters Combat/Melee
  • 7 = Assault/'Cavalry'
  • 8 = Area Denial/Fire Support
  • 9 = Siege/Heavy Weapons
• E: Extra
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Denotes different things depending on armor purpose; may indicate weapon loadout, engineering specialty, primary sensor type, etc.; will be added on a case by case basis, as it is individualized for each basic suit type.
  In the above example, it means that the suit is specialised to pilot and go inside(mental interface) the systems of vehicles of all types. This also covers hijacking enemy vehicles.
• 2: Armor Rating;
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Quality of protection afforded, scaled to the size of armor; size 3 rating 4 armor is better than size 5 rating 1, but size 3 rating 2 is not. Add the rating to the armor size if you wish to compare two armor suits.
  NOTE: The above is not a perfect representation of combat performance or practical protection capability!
  

  • 0 = Minimal or no protective value; typically only used in non-combat operations, likely not environmentally sealed.
  • 1 = Low protective value; armor and shielding may have been exchanged for other capability, possibly not environmentally sealed.
  • 2 = Below standard protective value; some armor and/or shielding may have been exchanged for other capability.
  • 3 = Standard protective value; typical amount of protection afforded by this armor size.
  • 4 = Increased protective value; defensive equipment is likely to have been added to the original design.
  • 5 = High protective value; high-grade or large amounts of defensive equipment is likely to have been added to the original design; some amount of non-defensive capability may have been exchanged for armor or shielding.
  • 6 = Maximal protective value; massive amounts of defensive equipment have been added, in addition to a certain amount of non-defensive capability being exchanged for armor and shielding.
• s | m: Modifications;
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  General idea of modifications to the original design.
  

  • s = Environmentally Sealed(if otherwise lacking in such)
  • m = Mental Interface Link/Brain-Jack
  • w = Integrated Weapon Systems(if otherwise lacking in such)
  • e = Electronic Warfare
  • n = Nanotechnology/Engineering Capability
  • r = Sensors/Reconnaissance
  • c = Communications
  • j = Enhanced Jump/Jump Pack
  • f = Flight Capabilities/Jetpack
  • t = Strength/Stamina Enhancement
• Mark III: Version Designation
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Starts at I, goes up with each basic but overarching upgrade, or overhaul.
• c: Variant Designation
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Starts at 'a' for the first variant, goes through alphabet.
• "Voicebox": Nickname
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Given or acquired name popular amongst soldiers.
• Vehicle Operations & Interface Suit: Basic Name
  Spoiler (click to show/hide)

  Given name for basic type and purpose of armor suit.

Designs soon, gimme a bit.

There, I'm done, I'm finally fucking done. I got up at 8 this morning and have been working almost non-stop on this since 9 or 10. It's currently 6:40 PM. I started hating myself about half way through for doing this to myself, since I didn't eat how I should, either. I'm free!

[Rolepgeek]

Oh right, actions.

Construction:
I think we should drop in 3 Nano-Construction Pylons to increase construction speed and capability, then work on Shuttle Dock, Material Collection Base, Bank, Dormitories, Fusion Reactor, and Orientation Center.

Research:
Begin researching anything needed to achieve listed weapons and armor. 1500$.
