  1. After playing the demo for Mass Effect: Andromeda, I did a quick build of the new shuttle. It has no interiors, maybe I'll get around to work on it sometime.
  2. :: The Traig Treaty :: Junali 3815 In recent events on Traig I spoke to a society, calling themselves the Tron. Their marking had a resemblance to something I encountered in history books, but I can’t really recollect in what matter. Fey and Brazer are looking into that. Kawashita acknowledged that I am doing a pretty good job so far, so they freed me of my parol and given me extra authority. Basically meaning I can decide things for myself. Together with the Tron I fabricated a plan how to taunt the other two corporations speed in dominating Andromeda. Tron is part of an alliance called ALIEN, Alliance of the Liberated & Independent Entrepreneurial Nations. We are at the verge of a collaboration with this alliance, but they have some demands. These demands are of no concern of other members, maybe even a bit dangerous. For the sake of Kawashita I comply and agree to be escorted to Arium Major (F10). They supplied me with a spy outfit so the jumps are made easier. What my fate there will be is still a bit cloudy. I grab a small vessel, which was just assigned to The Collision. When I exited the docking bay a small squadron of four disc-like spacecrafts surrounded me and set course. We flew past a small dozen of planets before we entered the Arium Major subspace. My radio started to rattle. I expected to get instructions of one of the four spacecrafts, but instead the voice of Koro whispered in my com. He will report our conversation separately. In the middle of an asteroid belt in the outer orbit of Arium Major we halted. Now the leader of the pact contacted me just to tell me that we will hide in the astroid belt to conduct scans of Octan activity. We still float undetected between the large rocks circling around the planet as a lost moon, mapping the whole planet trying to find a save spot to land. .. end transmission ..
  3. :: The Traig Society :: Junali 3815 Hovering over the mountains of Traig, a strange anomaly triggered the scanners. It seems that there is some sort of life on Traig, and it appears they are intelligent enough to use metals and electronics. Something worth exploring. Fey drops the ship to the hard rock soil and Narbilu exits the vehicle in his newly obtained walker. Only a few clicks north before he encounters some sort of entrance. Narbilu was already spotted. A few manlike spacesuited figures guide him to their leader. Kawashita are the first visitors they could actually speak to in over a millennium. The content of the discussion won't be reported in this log, it seems to be secret and board members eyes only. What will happen and what is discussed???
  4. Greater Direstan B08 – Nothing suspicious Junali 3815 After a quick scan of the surface below, Narbilu decided to do a solo survey of the planet. As it seems the large plains of grass attracts no danger. For miles and miles Narbilu shears through high grasses on his newly obtained speeder bike, leaving a trail that has the characteristics of a grain circle. Over ten miles he flies in a straight line, before treasure is found. A strange field of flowers, growing awesomnium. This is something our botanists and scientists should look at. If this is reproducible, this would be a goldmine. Instead of searching the galaxy, we could just grow our resources. Narbilu circles the area placing beacons for the extractors and filing photographic scans of the surroundings, so the planet is mapped and stored in our database. Greater Direstan seems harmless and save for Kawashita to dominate without any trouble.
  5. Maian 3815 Serium B09 - deeper grounds After a thorough search of the shallow waters of Serium, myself and Fey swapped our landing vehicle for a more suitable vessel to travel the greater oceans. We searched the coastline of the small sandbanks, before taking our ship to deeper grounds. We were no three minutes out, when our scanners went beserk. I suited up and went overboard, when no live was spotted in a miles radious. The bottom was still not far from the waves, so I could explore the surface with the ship within handsrange. I swam south, Fey following my lead on the water, until I froze. I was face to face what seemed to be a statue. Serium once had, or still has, some form of civilazed species. Hopefully not the size and jaws the statue shows. They also valued awesomnium, because this statue was placed right before a large vain, scaring off anyone trying to get near the crater. Fey reported still no living creatures near, so we extracted some of the awesomnium to test its purity. After confirmation, I placed a beacon so the miners could track the vain. Another successful mission. Serium proves very resourceful for Kawashita Group.

  7. Location:G10-Onix Tags: Building, Spying, Science If you have not already... Please read Part 1 before this build. Thanks! What the heck happened here?!? Maybe one of these computers still works... Sweet! Let's see if there's any surviving surveillance footage... Log date 759, this is Dr. Andrew Stanton. My research on scaling down the GATE drives is finally complete. Two top ranking Octan executives are arriving soon to witness the first test of my remarkable new technology. Wait, here they are now! This is Dr. Stanton signing off. Welcome gentlemen! I assume your journey was pleasant? Cut the pleasantries Stanton. We're here to see the GATE, not to socialize. We've invested a lot of time and money into your little project. It had better work. Very well. If you would just follow me down these steps... The work we have done here is really quite remarkable. We have downscaled the GATE drive to a point where it can effectively teleport a single minifigure anywhere, anytime. No longer will massive cores powered by tens of thousands barrels of Awesomenium be able to transport an entire cruiser into a general sector. No, this, operating on a fraction of the resources required, can send a single subject anywhere. The possibilities are limitless! Send a Special Forces agent behind enemy lines undetected? Of course! Your scientists need a sample from a far-off planet? Instead of sending an entire team, just beam them over there! Yes, yes, that's great, but does it actually work? See for yourself. One of our top pilots, Mr. Quinn Anderson, will be making a jump up to one of our stations orbiting Onix. And that is only the beginning... Let's do this! Capsule is locked in and ready. Final preparations are complete. We are go for launch in 10... 9... 8... 7... My life's work is nearly complete... What could go wrong? 6... 5... Sir? Something's wrong! What? What is it?! 4... 3... 2... Abort! ABORT! I can't! It's too far in the countdown! 1... ARGGG! What's going on! Shut it down! SHUT IT DOWN! What have you done!? *muffled explosion, screams, and sounds of crackling fire* Recording ends. Oh my... I have to get this back to HQ. Wait a second... I only saw one body! Where are... the rest of them? You're not going anywhere... TO BE CONTINUED!
  8. Location: G04 - Fractor V Tags: Exploration, Land/Water Vehicle [O-G04] The Watchers Log of Jebediah O'Reilly, Entry #019: I was en route to a scientific outpost on Fractor V with an important shipment of Mithril for Dr. Kodan Black when my transporter snapped a tread. As I'm naturally paranoid, I immediately suspected MANTIS saboteurs attempting to intercept the shipment. I better keep an eye out for any suspicious characters hanging around the garages... The sooner I can get this tread fixed the better. This planet gives me the creeps... I feel like the trees are watching me... End Log Entry #019 Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my build! Comments and criticisms welcome.
  9. :: Retreive and Treat :: :: Hyreal to Sorn :: Inside the Hummer the com operative received a distress call. Besides that, he didn’t have contact with Narbilu the last thirty minutes, which concerned him. Three minutes ago he already rallied up a task force to search and extract the Kawashita Group CEO from the last checkpoint. The distress call was only two clicks away from that last checkpoint, so the team was lucky enough to reach the exact location where the fallen leader bathed in a pool of his own blood. The critters who were eating from the lifeless body were easily scared away, one even got killed in the process. The medic fitted landing craft loaded up a barely breathing and heavily bleeding Narbilu. Fortunately, within a minute, they were onboard the Hummer orbiting space, docking the Collision. The onboard medic decided to take their leader to Sorn, where one of the high end hospitals of the Kawashita Group is located. The Collision jumped a few gates and Sorn was in sight. Preparations were already at full blast. They operated on him for days and the next three weeks, Narbilu was in a coma instated rest, before he had the strength to open his own eyes. When he did, the first thing he did, was summon his loyal right hand man Commander Turtle. Commander Turtle hasted to Sorn to speak to Narbilu. Loyal friend, it is still unclear how my body reacts to the poison the creatures injected me with. If I will be able and regain strength to stand before my people to address them, command them or even participate in operations. I grant you the position of acting CEO until my destiny is unfolded. You are the one who is best informed about what Kawashita Group’s goals are. You can encourage people, you have the diplomatic skills and you know how our organization is fitted. Take this responsibility with honor. I will somehow get my strength back, we have excellent doctors, but I don’t know how long it will take. Godspeed, for honor & glory. Narbilu closes his eyes and falls into a deep sleep.
  10. :: The Collition :: - Personel Docking - Inside the enormous colonization vessel of Kawashita Group orbitting Orinshi, Narbilu and his crew of explorers make themselves ready to board the Hummer. The airlocks are still locked tight, but they will board soon (wait for challenge B to experience the Hummer).
  11. :: C06 Hyreal :: -- Alien chow -- Nar Bilu's blaster didn't get the result Nar Bilu wished for. From the ground behind him strike a bladelike tail him in the back sabering him to the dirt. (check the last scene) Leaving him in a pool of blood, the mother worm dove back into the deep hole it came from. Only minutes later the harsh sound of teeth and flapping wings arrived at the scene. Nar Bilu used all his strength to crawl away, but the tearing agony of teeth and razorsharp talons stopped him from moving any further. How will this end... is this the end?
  12. :: Kawashita Group Hummer KG8 :: - troop dropship - The Hummer is a troop dropship which can carry 8 soldiers in four detachable cabins, which makes it easy to scatter scouts around a small area of interest. In the main hull the Hummer can store rations, ammo and two smaller or one large ground vehicle. If necessary the vehicles can be exchanged for an additional 20 seats suitable for troops. The cockpit seats only two pilots, but with the two hull crew and an engineer included that makes a total of five standard crew members and one squadron of troops. Four Hummers are assigned to every Collision colonization ship of which Narbilu commands one of. The Hummer is capable of GATE jumping, but docked to the Collision it moves around far more efficient. But when the Hummer is undocked it glides through space and atmosphere with such grace it can outmanoeuvre most smaller fighters. The thrust engine can drop the Hummer to ground level within seconds when the Collision enters close orbit of any planet. inside cockpit troop cabin side engine

On the way in we took out a Kawashita awesomenium transport; and now we move in to seize the valuable cargo. Our mission also doubles as a field test for Dr. Long's new localized atmosphere maintainer (LAMB for short... still don't know what the B stands for, but who knows, I'm no scientist. ) This field allows for my men to traverse the asteroid on foot and for cooler looking stuff to happen like firing missiles, smoke, and flamethrowers.

Crofter's Ridge is the only planet not yet dominated on our side of the galaxy and this agreement will bring Octan one step closer to victory over Andromeda. End Log Entry #021
  16. :: A06 Guinevere :: :: A leader lost - part 1 :: Since Narbilu was stabbed by the alien on Hyreal, he hasn't been huimself. Although the recovery of his injuries are improving, the alien must have injected some kind of toxin into his body giving him moodswings and agonizing pains in his spine. The day he was released from the medical centre, he took the first vessel to Guinevere. The species on that planet has some kind of ancient archive. For over two weeks in a row, Narbilu read every file there was to find on curing anomoly and toxin... but in the process he stumbled upon something related to his past. To be continued...

  18. :: A leader lost – Part III :: :: Guinevere :: Astonished, I looked at the gate showing a Jules Verne like “Journey to the Centre of the Earth”. The temptation was pulling me towards the glowing centre of the portal. When I reached the portal at four feet the gravity pulled me further in and before I knew it a bright flash took me into a wormhole. Steaks of red, orange and yellow sucked me into a fifteen minute flight through nothingness, until my feet felt rocky soil. The lit stripes were replaced by a glowing sun. Blue sky everywhere, white clouds and the damped atmosphere pearled small drops on my harness. From my backpack I pulled the binoculars. The hi-tech gear didn’t seem to work. The energy was lost in the journey here. The same applied to every other piece of equipment I brought. All batteries and energy packs dried out. Even my plasma gun couldn’t fire a single shot. So I have to rely on my keen eyes and bare hands for protection. The small cliff that I was standing on, gave me an excellent view of the area. Small streams, green meadows, tall treelines and grey mountains. It looks like home, but prettier. Unimpaired. When I turned around to see what the gate would look like from this angle, there was only a silhouette of the portal. Stone carved, but no energy. No portal, no way back. What now?
  19. Location: G10 - Onix Tags: Civil, Building Note: If you haven't already please read Part 1 and Part 2 before this one... Thanks. Ugghhh... What happened?! To be frank... I shot you. Luckily it was on stun. I thought you were one of them. One of who? Who are you? What's going on?!? My name is Nate. Nate Goldwoski. I work as an engineer at this facility. I was servicing one of the power cores when an explosion shook the facility. The warning lights came on and I must have been knocked out cold. When I awoke... They were there. I'm not sure what they are. A mix between the living and the dead... but they're not human. Stanton, or whatever is left of him, seems to be their leader. I managed a daring escape! I was able to lock the monsters in the reactor room. It was close, but I made it. That's when I came to the lab and found you. I was trying to figure out what happened... I thought you were one of them. Sorry about that by the way. When I figured out you weren't, for a lack of a better term, a zombie, I brought you back here. I've been trying to send a distress signal but the system locked me out. Let's see if I can fix that... *whirr* *beep* *Manual override successful. Welcome Mr. O'Reilly.* There. I sent an SOS signal. Corporate should be sending a dropship very soon. Wait, what's that noise...? I hear it too. *crash* *bang* Uh oh. Where did he get a wrench?!? It doesn't matter. Run! TO BE CONTINUED!
  20. Location: H04 - Crofter's Ridge Tags: Civil, Science, Exploration [O-H04] Guard Duty Log of Jebediah O'Reilly, Entry #014 or #015, I lost count: I have been assigned to escort Dr. Short [Everyone calls him Dr. Not-long behind his back, just don't tell him that] and his team to the surface of Crofter's Ridge as they gather field data. There have been reports of heightened alien activity around the core worlds and HQ wants to make sure nothing happens to the doctor and his team. [O-H04] Guard Duty Here is Dr. Not-long himself. (Sorry for the blurry photo ) [O-H04] Guard Duty Unfortunately not all of Dr. Not-long's associates share his same passion for scientific endeavours. [O-H04] Guard Duty They appear to be setting up some sort of science-y device. Whatever it is, it must be important, because it takes two full tanks of awesomenium to power it up. Well, that's all for now. It's been pretty uneventful so far, but I think I spy some scorpions watching us from beyond the waterfall...

We kept close contact through our coms. After a short hour DragonFire lost communications... To be continued...
  23. :: Technology Prospecting :: After our visit to Crentium together with the Terrestrians, they offered me to teach us the basics of prospecting for a small fee. I consulted with the board and we agreed on a payment in resources. 1800 ounches of awesomnium, 700 gallons of water and 500 ounches of biomass. A large hauler brought the payment to a moving spacestation of the Terrestrial, where they took me also. The leader took me to a research facility where they hooked me up to a device. When the lights started to blink and a buzzing sound filled the helmet on my head, my brain started to tingle. Only minutes later I stepped out of the chair. They were able to tap the knowledge directly into my memory. Back in my quarters I wrote the whole technology onto my pad and sent it to the Kawashita Group library and academy.
  24. :: A04 - Mynderis :: The Terrestrial are worried about one of their covert planets they mine for awesomnium. They asked me and Koro to escort a small squadron of scouts to the surface and see where the threat is settling and conducting their research. Koro did a quick sweep of a spot where the Terrestrial could land their dropship. As the area was cleared I set foot on the steaming hot rock giving the sign in the com that the troops could arrive. The threat was no-where close to our current location. My scanners show a path between the lava streams leading 5 miles down south where the planet was violated by another corporation. Dropship:
  25. Challenge 2: Unknown menace Due to the recently discovered activity in the center of the galaxy, all corporations' governants asked their employees to start building a defense fleet. This fleet may contain any spaceship from small fighter jets to large battle cruisers. Rules for all categories: All rules in the General Rules thread apply unless otherwise. Players will earn credits according to their score. Entries won't reward resources or domination points. Your sigfig must be present in the build. The number of minifigs is unlimited, as long as they fit in the vessel(s). Entries must be at minifig scale. There is no size restriction. Note that challenge C has a minimum size restriction. Because the theme is about the vessel no bonuses will be awarded for job related builds. The challenge will run from July 12nd to August 30th. As long as it is still August 30th somewhere in the world, you can still enter. Note that there are different runtimes per category. Entries posted after the deadline will be disqualified from the challenge and will not be scored. Entries will be judged according to the General Rules. This challenge is open to all players of Andromeda's Gates, even if they joined EB or signed up for the game after the challenge has begun; the Andromeda's Gates staff, EB admins and moderators are not eligible to win prizes but may earn credits. All entries must be new creations, not posted anywhere else prior to being entered in the challenge. You may be asked by a staff member to change your entry if it is too similar to an earlier creation. All entries must be built from real LEGO or with Lego Digital Designer. No clone brands, no third-party custom parts. All entries must be posted as a new topic in the Andromeda's Gates subforum, the title prefixed by, "[Challenge 2][Cat X]". (For example, "[Challenge 2][Cat A] Vessel name".) Post pictures no larger than 1000x720, as specified in the EB Member Guidelines. You may do a 'full-blown photo edit' with all the text, effects, background compositing, support erasing, and other effects onone picture. All your other pictures may have no editing other than color adjustment or background removal for a solid-color background. For obvious reasons, any photo editing that changes the shape, functionality, or color (not tint or adjustment, but actual color) of a LEGO piece is prohibited. All entries are considered WIPs (Works In Progress) until the deadline passes. Until the deadline has passed, you are allowed to change and improve your MOC. Alien builds: Aliens are allowed to compete in all three categories. Winning a category with an alien build will only award credits. Domination: Because this challenge is not related to a particular planet, no domination points will be awarded for each entry. Instead at the end of all three challenges the CEO of each corporation may point out a connected planet where the fleet is travelling to. The corporation receives 1 domination point for every build for the chosen planet. The alien build with the highest score may also choose a planet and subtract a domination point for every alien build made from the chosen planet. If multiple corporations are present, both loose the number of domination points to a minimum of 0. Determining winning corporation For each category, the corporation score is calculated by adding 0.2 point for each participant to the average of all the participant's scores. The winning corporation for category is the one with the highest score. Overall winner The corporation which scored most points, all categories scores added together, wins the challenge and will receive an additional: 50 gold, 50 copper and 50 mithril. Category A – The swarm Small to medium sized fighters and shuttles – most of the time one to three seated vessels. Restrictions: 1 to 3 seats maximum. Runtime: The challenge will run from July 12nd to August 2nd. As long as it is still August 2nd somewhere in the world, you can still enter. Judging: Entries will be judged between 1 and 10 Rewards: Winner will receive 50 credits, the corporation of the winner receives an additional 25 gold. Winning corporation will receive 250 awesomnium, 100 water, 100 biomass and 25 gold. Category B – The center pride Medium to large or even huge sized haulers, merchant vessels and command ships – large enough to move large quantities of resources, civilians or military. Restrictions: Minimum of 5 seats. Runtime: The challenge will run from July 12nd to August 30th. As long as it is still August 30th somewhere in the world, you can still enter. Judging: Entries will be judged between 1 and 10 Rewards: Winner will receive 100 credits, the corporation of the winner receives an additional 25 copper. Winning corporation will receive 500 awesomnium, 250 water, 250 biomass and 25 copper Category C – A peek inside What maybe even more interesting than the colossal appearance of the ship is the interior, control rooms tight multiple screens, captains quarters or even a docking bay for your swarm.
