Hey, froggiest1982 if I could give you a little constructive criticism:
1. Use more paragraphs. It can get difficult and tiring to read text when sentences blur together and your paragraphs do not have any spaces between them. The more readable your story is, the more people are willing to keep up with it.
2. Reduce the size of your screenshots. I have a 1920 x 1080 resolution and the images are still often stretched outside, forcing me to scroll right and left. Maybe you're playing on a 4K monitor and don't realize it or something.
3. Ditch the mineral reports. Very few people care about the total amount of minerals in a system. Personally, I wouldn't show them at all unless for some specific reason. Alternatively, you could show just the most important body or two per system.
Weird, snipping tool shouldn't cause that. For example:
(https://i.imgur.com/dpC1HQk.png)
It's the exact size of what I snipped - so that's why I was thinking that maybe you had a 4K monitor. But they also looked very zoomed in / scaled up. Does your snipping tool have an automatic zoom/scaling feature?

having finished the 1.12 database porting
Your thread might not be the best place to start a discussion about this, but I'm interested in what you mean with the database porting. Did you just recreate the game in the new vesion or did you use the 1.11 DB and have modified it to be compatible with 1.12?

For example why the industrialists or scientists would side with the pacifists when perhaps a more military party would give them more latitude to study and build lucrative military projects.
Thanks for the reply! It would be cool to see these elements come out more in the writing, to get more depth to the worldbuilding especially as the specter of war and potential alien incursions could motivate certain factions as you point out.

Thanks for the excellent summary!
I do have to wonder what the impact of a fully-implemented Federalism ideology would be... seems like the endgame for them is for humanity to be a loose confederation of colony-states, which would severely curtail the sort of inter-colony cooperation needed to mount effective military defense against an alien empire. Fortunately for humanity, unless the Federalists cut some serious deals with the science and industry sectors it seems doubtful that they can ever accomplish this in reality.
I am rooting for the Republic, but we all know how it ended in Star Wars, so let's hope if it does happen, to be at least less authoritarian.
This update has everything one could ever want, by which I mean of course political drama and tanks!
What, this is supposed to be a game about spaceships? Nonsense... ;D
Interesting play here by the Federalist side. I wonder about the implications, not only on the remainder of the mandate in terms of parliamentary interaction but also how the voters will respond to their elected choice being ousted by political machinations. We might see a push-back against the Federalists that will mark this as a premature move by their party - I doubt most voters will be swayed to recognize the wisdom of the Federalist tactics by the apparent necessity to improve sensor technology.
On the other hand General Hinc has some time to make a mark, if she can accomplish major projects and reforms she may gain popularity and prestige to win an elected term as well.

During all 2166 and 67, our new exploration fleet started to push boundaries of the Human Federation further and further. Apparently, after the systems beyond Struve, there was only empty space. The exploration was then diverted on the Centauri Systems and the other branch of the WISE Systems.
On the 5th of May 2168, the Centauri Arm proved to be a dead-end at Luyten 726-8 limiting the expansion plans of the Federation to the only way still unexplored beyond the HH Andromedae System.
If the system could not have supported an outpost in any way the strategy would have been to close access to Sol by controlling the WISE 1506+7027 System. On the 2nd of June 2169, reports indicated that there weren’t any TN mineral in any of the planets of Epsilon Indi, leaving then the command with no much choice than to go for the plan B.

Sirius really should have expected this, the poor preparedness of their fleet and lack of serious upgrades compared to UNEN is the sort of things heads will be rolling for, if Sirius somehow manages to defend themselves and stay independent without a fleet.
I see two major consequences coming out of this. On one hand, the willingness of UNEN to go to war with their own species to preserve the union (or whatever term you like...empire, perhaps?) will likely cast a pall on those who until now have had a more utopian view of human expansion. On the other hand, any future independence movements will know that they must be far more prepared if they want to stand against UNEN, perhaps even to the point of waiting until a war with aliens breaks out on the other side of the galaxy to break away. A really nefarious breakaway government might even provoke such a war...
Really enjoy the narrative thus far.
One quick question, I did not quite follow.
What leverage did Sirius have for Earth to cede a bounty of facilities to the
2 Shipyards of the maximum tonnage, 1 Naval and 1 Commercial, 150 Construction Factories, 36 between refineries, ordnance and fighter factories, 5 Research Facilities, 150 Maintenance Facilities, 5 Ground Forces Complexes, and 1 Naval Headquarter
Assuming they were not already what was present on Sirius and I just misunderstood, but it seem like Earth agreed to ship all that to Sirius in addition to acknowledging their Independence.
Did Earth get anything out of it, in exchange or was it just a concession to game play by giving Sirius enough to be a functioning faction?

It's a bit uncertain, but I believe Sirius had a large chunk of the navy defect to them, which meant that UNEN couldn't immediately deal with the problem. Additionally the pro-independence political faction had influence over the election results and could force the concessions in order to decide the election.

NOTES: I have tried to increase the world-building with notions of daily life and references to past events. I hope you can all appreciate and the more we can see the Humans evolve the more we can add to these things.
The troop transport station is an interesting idea. Does Earth in this timeline subscribe to a doctrine of large container stations towed around by tugs, or is this a new experiment by the military?

As the discussion started to find a majority in the Senate the Federalists tried immediately to seize power rallying 921 seats to support their claim. Opposing the Federalists there was the War Party. Rear Admiral Barbier could count on a great deal of respect over many Senators. Her campaigns and successes cost her an illness diagnosed her on the 17th of December 2185 right before election night. The serious medical problem managed to bring even more sympathies to her cause as many saw her as the perfect woman ready to die for her country.
Her plan was to have a military-led government which would have been kept under check by the Federalist's Chancellor along the lines of the previous mandate. Philippine's intention was then to firstly undermine General Pyung Chung-Hee status of Chancellor to the one of a simple inspector, something that would have benefited her in the next election, and secondly to ensure the War Party could have dictated the policies of the following 4 years of government. Her paranoid character over the alien menace was somehow masked by her heroin’s reputation and mistaken for serious concerns over the matter. As soon as she finished to work the floor, the Federalists could tell that there was not much they could do to stop the Militarists. The final count was then ratified at 960, more than enough for the War Party to rule.
A joint communication by all the factions was sent to the media immediately after the new coalition was sworn in. The message was to clarify the role of the Chancellor over the ruling coalition. As results of the agreement in the Senate then, the Chancellor’s prestige was hit hard as many started to see him just as a patsy of the Military. Regardless of the public opinion, the Federalist Chancellor and majority still wanted to propose a constitutional change. In their opinion, the situation on Sirius-A IV was anti-constitutional and the imposition over the colony to do not participate in the general election by the central government did in fact just certified that.
In front of the constitution, all Humans were having the same rights but it was now evident that this was not true. To avoid any problem a change would have been required before people would have started to appeal to the courts all around the Republic.
A change to a limited Civil Rights version of the constitution was then proposed and put up for a vote. The proposal was agreed by 1088 Senators and therefore approved with immediate effect. The change wasn’t received well by the Democratic forces as it was noted that the Civil Rights chart was ranging from matters such as personal liberty and privacy. To change it only for the vote was a bold move. The worry was that a form of slavery or sort could have been resurfaced somehow or even that people could have been started to be prosecuted due to their differences on matters such as political views or religion.
As a matter of fact, though, this Republic was now very different from the old Democracy of 2100. The militaristic and expansionist focus of its ideals, the limited Civil Rights and the ironclad Police Internal Affairs department were only a few of the differences. After a brief spell of total liberty, the media were almost silenced by the everyday censorship of the government representatives and even when something was discovered the State Controlled Justice System ensured that those who had to walk free could always go unpunished.
Meanwhile, the War Party was preparing a strategy to face the aliens in the Altair system. The first problem was logistic. A new Jump Tender able to help the military fleet in transiting into the enemy territory was required. The finest engineers on Earth were tasked to build the new Hercules Military Tender Class.
The Second Problem was the range so a refuel would have been required on Sirius prior departing to Altair but fortunately, Sirius Prime was already equipped to handle such a task. The new military operation would have been called “Showdown” and it would have been launched as soon as the tender and the Paladins would have been ready. The ETA provided by operation command was late 2188.
All focus switched then back to get Sirius-A IV fully back into Republican’s control.
This ought to be fun.
The Republic has now 3 very big problems.
1. Due to the constitutional change, in Sirus and potentially other colonies, something nasty is about to happen.
2. The military operations focus on Altair has again postponed the search for possible(?) Pirates/Terrorists in the Republic Gate Network Territory.
3. The Navy really thinks to have the upper hand against the Aliens but the truth is that to be dangerous UNEN have to be close range and we all know the power of AMM spoilers spam

2186/9 – Revenge is a dish best served cold
A law to rename all planets with colonies outside of Sol was also drawn. As per this law, the first colony on each new System would have assumed the status of Prime. Any other colony would have been renamed as per the following:
Second: Duime
Third: Terime
Forth: Qurime
Fifth: Quime
On the 4th of December 2186, the UNEN John Moresby was the first smeg to jump into a new system in almost a decade as the latest system discovered was the empty LP 816-60 on the 23rd of July 2177.
However, the discovery did not change the strategic position of the Republic as to liberate Altair was paramount to ensure the safety of Humanity.
While the Chancellor was on the way back from the ceremony an explosion hit the convoy killing instantly half of the security details. In the attempt of fleeing the scene, General Pyung Chung-Hee was hit by an unidentified sniper. The Senate was immediately put under heavy guard and all the Senators not in the session were isolated in secure locations. After a few hours of general panic in the streets and poor media coverage due to the general scarcity of official news, the government released a statement:
BREAKING NEWS"Today at 6:14 pm, an identified terrorist group, known as the Warriors of the Democratic Freedom (WDF), conducted an operation with the intent of killing our Chancellor and head of the government General Pyung Chung-Hee. The attempt has been successful. We repeat: the Chancellor is dead. The Senate has been put under heavy surveillance and all Senators have been moved into secured locations and from there they will convey to elect a successor. The Republic never dies."
In less than 6 months, 4,000,000 people were rallied by the Occupation Forces on Sirius Prime and relocated to 40 Forced Labour Mining Camps by direct order of the Sirius Prime Administrator on behalf of The Republic's Chancellor.
Even after reading this whole thread i still have no idea what is going on...
do you have it so that your simulator is basically running elections and those elections influence your game? Cause thats what it seems like.
Oh. Ok then. That makes a lot of sense. I just cant figure out how the darn thing works. Does it only work for Microsoft Excel?
That's, uhhhh, not a very good result. Unless you're the aliens of course.
What lessons will Earth learn from this lesson? Will they even learn a lesson, or will political infighting obscure any sense of reason?
To my eyes it looks as if Earth suffered from not enough ships, period. Knowing that there would be 30+ contacts, a much greater numerical superiority was necessary to create 2:1 or even 3:1 odds, in tonnage at least and in numbers ideally also. Additionally it seems clear that not enough point defense is present in the Earth ships, an expensive lesson to learn but a worthwhile one.
Just a few months ago, in April, I have been diagnosed with a rare infection. It is not life-threatening at the moment but the doctor says to don’t keep my hopes high in the long term. Scientific researches are all focused on military development and funds on similar cases as mine are very limited.is striking. Even with all our modern TN tech advances, somehow the technology and research doesn't seem to go where it is needed most when it is needed that much. I'd hope humanity could do better in the future, but somehow I have doubts...
...damn. Heavy stuff there, Mr. Frog.
gratuitous killing of aliens!
