Space Kittiez Trading Company

Founding
There's really not much to to tell about SKTC's founding. It was founded on September 6th, 2020 by myself and a friend. I was trade running with a friend when he commented on the Decal on my Marlin, it said, "We Space Kittiez, Take us to Your Cheezburgers," with 2 cats with glowing eyes on it. We started joking about starting a company with the name "Space Kittiez Trading Company." Though it started out as just a joke, I had actually been thinking about making my own group for a while at that point, and decided to actually do it. Soon enough we had a discord server and a small number of people who joined.

General Info
We are still small due to recruitment being slow because of school and no longer being able to advertise on TLO. Despite the fact that we are plagued by inactivity, we still have a handful of active members and host events pretty regularly. We have a well structured chain of command and offer 2 branches, the militia which focuses on combat and fighting pirates, though we are still too small to open this branch. The other branch is the merchant or general branch, this is for players who want to mainly trade or have a more diverse experience. We recently joined the UFA, the new UFO, to participate in an organized unofficial tradelands roleplay similar to the official one, but less boring. I attempt to keep the environment non-toxic, and racism, sexism, and homophobia are all immediately ban-able offenses. While we use modified TLO rules, I aim to create a relaxed and laid-back environment. We do have weekly event quotas - meaning you must attend a certain number of events every week - but not meeting this quota is not punishable, but meeting it means you can attend weekly game-nights.

Chain of Command
As I said, we have a well structured chain of command, so you always have something to work for. Again, we have 2 branches, the mercantile, and the militia. The mercantile branch is composed primarily of traders, while the militia is for those who enjoy combat.

Key:


 * HR - High Rank - HICOM members
 * CR - Command Rank - Primary Hosters
 * MR - Middle Rank - Experienced members on their way to being CRs.
 * LR - Low Rank - The newer members and the backbone of the company.


 * 1) Grand Fleet Admiral (HR) - The leader of the company.
 * 2) Fleet Admiral/Grand General (HR) - The honored and more experienced HICOM members.
 * 3) Admiral/General (HR) - Admirals and Generals are the first HICOM rank, with the Admiral being in the merchant branch and the General being in the militia branch.
 * 4) Commander/Militia Commander (CR) - The more experienced Captains and Militia Captains.
 * 5) Captain/Militia Captain (CR) - Lieutenants who have proven themselves capable of leadership.
 * 6) Lieutenant/Militia Lieutenant (MR) - A Captain/Militia Captain in training.
 * 7) Adept Seafarer/Militia Soldier (MR) - The first ranks divided into branches and experienced members.
 * 8) Seafarer (LR) - The backbone of the company.
 * 9) Recruits (LR) - The newest members.

UFA Roleplay
The UFA is the new UFO. It is a place where unofficial factions can come together and participate in a roleplay similar to that of the official roleplay, but far more interesting, and of course, unofficial. Currently we are a small nation that controls the Fenwick Archipelago, while we are not very powerful, we have powerful allies including the North Sea Trading Company, the Farhaven Confederacy, and the Union of New Verdantium, while we have these powerful allies, we also have some smaller ones as well, these include the State of Savoine (previously Republic of Freeport) and the Guin Guin Shipping Company.

War Logs
We have been at war several times now, and while some enemies surrendered immediately, others have decided to actually fight.

The Republic of Freeport (now State of Savoine) Test War Declared on the 1st of October, 2020. Ended on the 29th of October, 2020
This war was not really a real war, but rather a war test war to see if the UFA's rules and organization would work. This war would have no lasting consequences. The first battle we unfortunately had to forfeit because we could not rally for it. The second battle was a small 2 v 2, though it was somewhat chaotic, we ended up losing.

The Fenwick "Liberation" War Declared on the 31st of October, 2020. Ended on the 1st of November, 2020.
This war was declared by a leader who had recently been banned from the State of Savoine for toxicity. He seemed to believe that he had been unjustly banned, and as far as anyone knows, only wanted to fight me for Fenwick so they could fight the State of Savoine who controlled Freeport. They used the "liberation of Fenwick," to justify the war, even though we had owned it first and had never lost any of it at any time. As my allies declared war on them for declaring war on us, they gave up and disbanded. So, basically we won without a fight.

The Great Coalition War Declared on the 4th of November, 2020. Currently Ongoing.
The war began when the Rogue Raiders, an official pirate crew, registered themselves as a faction in the UFA and declared war on us, the French Royal Navy, the Verd Resurgence, the Inyolan Front, the North West Guard Division, the Koltan Guild, the Northeastern Trading Company, and the Union of New Verdantium. Soon after, many allies of us, and others who had war declared on them joined the war, creating what is known as the "Coalition of Common Sense," or the "Western Defense Initiative." This prompted the Rogue Raiders to call on the Empire of Yatagarasu, Elyola, and Balresk to support them. All who were asked to support the Rogue Raiders accepted and entered the war on their side, calling themselves the "Alliance." Yata swiftly defeated The Inyolan Front forcing them to surrender and become a vassal for 3 months. A new group, The Federation, joined the war on the Alliance's side, prompting the Detroit Autonomous Zone to join the war on the Coalition's side. Not long afterwards, The Kingdom of Praeselis had occupied nearly all of The Federation's land. As of November 17th, negotiations for peace had begun as they claimed they no longer wanted to fight this war due to "change in current politics and a loss of interest." On November 19th, Balresk broke the ceasefire and rejected the Treaty of Terranfort. Their allies decided to stand by the ceasefire and treaty.

I hope you decide to join us, because if not, we will take your cheezburgers, lol. I hope to see you in the server!
