The year is 2160. Humanity has spread to a few stars, but is still not fully established as a spacefaring power. Earth holds the majority of the 20 billion humans and apart from Mars, no other colonie contributes more than it takes in resources currently.
A ship full of refugees fleeing from an alien war between two superpowers reaches earth space. That ship is old and run down, yet still more advanced than what humanity has by a hundred or more years.
The two superpowers are genocidal and do not respect neutral powers. Worst of all, the war is spreading into our direction.
You are the elected government of mankind. What do?
>The two superpowers are genocidal and do not respect neutral powers. Worst of all, the war is spreading into our direction. Sounds like it doesn't matter what I do.
I accept them as refugees, obviously.
>For the eyes of the world now look into space, to the moon and to the planets beyond, and we have vowed that we shall not see it governed by a hostile flag of conquest, but by a banner of freedom and peace. We have vowed that we shall not see space filled with weapons of mass destruction, but with instruments of knowledge and understanding.
Chase Sanders
You find out that one of the powers are the Umiak, which work their populations and worlds to death supplying the war effort. And the Loroi, which are psionics and use mindrape to enforce loyalty.
Find the most vulnerable points of both alien empires and deliver simultaneous hard strikes. Make TV shows consisting entirely of Bugs and 'Paths being tortured by the worst of humanity... Australians. Unite the disparate minor species under a single banner. >gas the xenos >space war now
See if they aren't space niggers by checking intel and if negative give them a somewhat isolated land to stay and try to minimize contact and interference on both sides.
Jayden Perry
kek they dont need weapons against us because they already have control over our minds and most dont even know it

Attention Space Command: Top Secret Clearance Level 6
The Orgus are to remain in orbit and given minimal aid to repair their vessel. They will be permitted to create an outpost on the moon. These aliens are to given resident status in the United Sol Systems. The stipulations of their stay are as follows: 1) They are to maintain longrange communication blackout 2) Shortrange communication is to be done through human accessible channels only 3) Their stay comes at a cost of scientific contributions and labor. Their technology is to be integrated with ours to increase our chances of survival of first contact with the other species 4) Large swathes of forces will be dedicated to the refugees. This will be under the guise of guarding them. In reality these wardens will ensure they can be handed over if necessary. 5) Priority status is given to increasing our early detection system and subterranian infrastructure on colonized worlds. 6) Recruitment propaganda and revisions of the conscription code are to be made in preparation of first contact.
Further orders will follow as information becomes available.
Umiak supremacy over the stars. I would not expect a species that looks relatively human to behave any different, the Loroi are not to be trusted
Owen Scott
So you'd choose the space chinese?
David Price
chinese are grotesque because they go against what is human. Umiak are not, because that is their natural way of being.
Asher Campbell
That's a fair point. Though I don't agree they are the superior choice. Humanity should spend it's time accessing the situaiton and choose the side which maximizes its own survival. More than likely the major warring nations are far more advance or have far more space tonnage than humanity does.
James Cruz
Clearly there are three levels of technology in play. Humanity is dumpster tier, with the Orgus being more developed. If the Orgus failed to combat the others in conflict, then the other two powers must be more advanced, so anything the Orgus can immediately give us is worthless in a neutral position fighting both powers.
If the Orgus still have a measurable shattered remnant, begin a precursor coalition with the prime objective of warning other civilizations of the nature of the conflict, and lending a hand to anyone joining the coalition with technological uplift, all under the full guarantee of preserving sovereignty. Humanity may die because of it, but the formation of this precedent is necessary to the cosmic imperative of spreading and celebrating life.
The obvious answer is to fake alliance with the newcomers until such time as we can convert them into war servitors, and reverse engineer their tech to prepare ourselves for the coming war.
Followed, of course, by the ritualistic orgy.
Jason Myers
The meek shall inherit the earth. The strong will inherit the stars. Purge the xenos. Their blood will lubricate the wheels of the Imperium.
we dont need humanity contaminated with their dirty xenos tech
Jayden Morris
Kill the refugees. Reverse engineer the ship. Draw back colonists and make all border outposts as stealthy and cloaked as possible and completely militarized. Refocus economy on asteroid mining and shipbuilding over colonizing and expansion.
Your blind adherence to the hidebound collection of human (((scientists))) will be your downfall. We are fools to not use every weapon at our disposal.
Aiden Peterson
We won't be using dirty xenos tech, we just study it so we know what's bad tech ; )
section them off attempt comunication try to gain information attempt to integrate them into soceity if they give me any nigger vibes i will have them all executed
Noah Cooper
Say I’ll help the refugees so that I can send my soldiers onto the ship, and once I have everyone out, I hold them all prisoner, take the ship, reverse engineer it, and use the technology to advance my empire. When the other empire shows up, I will hand over all the prisoners as a sign of goodwill, and once I feel my empire is strong enough, I will side with the opposing empire, and together we shall crush them, and I shall use their technology to advance my own civilisation, and finally crush the other empire forever cementing the human race as the ultimate galactic force.
Ethan Peterson
you sure you dont want to investigate the opposing force what if they act like sandniggers and just go about killing all intelligent life that doesn live by their ways
Joseph Jenkins
Rule 1 of space warfare: any large ship is also a kinetic weapon. Redirect all in-transit colony ships towards the enemy homeworlds, then lock out the crew from the controls. The loss is acceptable.
Ayden Carter
This nigger really needs to update more often. The art style and the overall world-building is nice, but less than 25 pages in a year is pathetic.
Gabriel Howard
imprison all of them interrogate them take the ship and have it investigated and stripped for parts in secret learn as much as i can about the aliens the conflict and what both sides are fighting for afterwards attempt to manufacture the superior ships from what we have learned create weapons out of their technology and generally do typical human shit unless there is no way to avoid war i will attempt to remain a neutral party but prepare for potential war if it came down to it
Noah Wright
This. He gets paid 950 per page too lol
Asher Price
Thats easy, you take the ship, kill all the refugees, report back to the other side and tell them you killed their enemy as a token of good will and pledge our alliance to their cause.
Reverse engineer the ship, force chinks to mass produce copies. Become intergalactic vassal of another empire, fight and die with honor for eternity.
Grayson Campbell
this
Joseph Hernandez
spoken like a proper citizen of the empire!
Ayden Lewis
Offer refugee status in exchange for knowledge. Take samples from them and begin biological experiments to strengthen the secret chimera tests which has been going for thousands of years.
Grayson Gomez
i like this
Aaron Reyes
>You are the elected government of mankind. What do? Form myself a harem of the thickest, most beautiful black women in the entire empire and fuck them nonstop until I have a heart attack
Gabriel Gray
take the alien refugees in. see if we can put some new technologies together in time to fuck with the xenomorphs and mind-rape-smurfs, if we can't... mind-rape-smurfs it is and try to negotiate to put us in a more favorable position than we were previously
we'll probably have to light the refugees on fire if we are negotiating peace or some shit
Brody Phillips
lol your empire still has niggers
Daniel Bennett
Bang the blue space elves, obviously
Brandon Harris
>>Umiak nuke israel from space accidentally killing tons of americans in the process
>>we had a similar disease on our homeplanet humans
Anthony Gonzalez
A ship shows up on our doorstep with an alien species claiming to have had their Homeworld obliterated because the other race was a bunch of dicks. That tells me that at least one other race in the galaxy hates the race I'm facing now, and there's a second side to this story.
Offer the refugees room and board on an isolated patch of land, preferably a moon, where military guard can keep a close eye on them and observe their mannerisms to see if there's anything about them that they've concealed. Meanwhile, attempt to vet the information they've given by comparing the records they've provided with our own records of space observations going back some centuries. While they're enjoying our hospitality and getting interrogated, seize their ship and start researching the unknown elements of it to determine how to craft capable defenses in case anything they say turns out to be true.
Ultimately, what this first contact relates to in our own experience is a dirty hobo approaching you asking you for a handout and talking crazy shit about two guys wanting to beat you up. Hell no I'm not buying that without corroborating evidence, but since they've led with the "we're powerless victims" routine then I'll goddamn well treat them as such.
>Obtain intelligence on locations of warring galactic superpowers' territories >Adapt refugee aliens' technology with an emphasis on stealth and recon >Immediately deploy scientific espionage /reconnaissance missions to figure out the technologies of the great powers, while passing completely beneath their notice as they trade blows among one another >Identify homeworlds of warring superpowers, develop and deploy relativistic kill vehicles aimed at them, hidden nearby Etc, etc
Ethan Reed
Oh, and obviously, >Have horrifying xeno sex with every species you encounter, bringing them into compliance with the power of BHC
