Kzinti Empire - offical empire thread

from GalCiv2 Forums

You have dared to enter the lair of the most ferocious predators in the galaxy!

It is the ulitmate destiny of the Kzinti to conquer the other civilizations of the galaxy, subjugate and enslave any who may prove useful to us, and devour the rest. The Fanged God has ordained that this is how it will be.

In just 26 octals of days (7 months or so...Kzinti count in base 8), the Kzinti Empire rose from obscurity, to #1 on the Metaverse. With the blessings of the Fanged God, we have remained dominant for 100s more octals of days since that auspicious day.  We leapt past the other empires, and our mighty domain now encompasses over 32 million more light years than the second most powerful empire.  The most recent Galactic Map data shows that we have subjugated over 45% of the galaxy.  Many warriors from the old and dying empires have joined us, to avoid being eaten along with the rest.  We hunger to establish indefinite supremacy over all the inferior sentient species...

We have also been #1 on the AltMeta for over 3 years running. The Empire grows more powerful with each passing day as new conquests are won, and more warriors join us in our inevitable rise to rule the galaxy!

The Kzinti are a species of bipedal space-faring feline predators, who love nothing more than conquest and battle. Created by sci-fi writer Larry Niven, the Kzinti have had many stories written about them, most notably in the Man-Kzin Wars series of books. They have also shown up in the Star Trek universe, and a number of other realities.

"Kzinti flesh has a very strong and pungent taste. The weak among us are devoured by their litter-mates within a few moons of birthing. Only the swiftest and most ferocious of us survive to their first naming-day. Those not fit to survive will never live to perpetuate their inferior bloodlines. This is the natural law of the galaxy." - Kzinti Warrior

"The meaning of life is the hot blood of your prey on your tongue, the meat that rends beneath your teeth, the corpse of your enemy left in the sun for the carrion eaters to finish, your defeated foe groveling in submission before you. That is what life is. We are the Kzinti, and we stronger, swifter, wiser, and more ferocious than any other race ever was or will be." - Kzinti philosopher

If your claws can grasp it, then it is rightfully yours. - Kzinti proverb

A salute to all those heroic t'kzintar who have made this empire a resounding success. Our conquests continue and the galaxy will never know peace!

If they fight us, we will make them despair that they ever met the Kzinti....or perhaps they will join with us in our dominance of this galaxy. We shall see...

We will likely get along well with fellow predators. We will contact them immediately to see if they are worthy to fight beside the Kzinti!

... Bark!... (Kzinti warrior Jumps and soils himself... starts walking towards the change rooms with his tail between his legs).

Any fool sneaking up on a kzinti warrior would likely end up dead on the floor. And then eaten.

The Kzinti are known for fast tempers, faster reflexes, and a lack of what humans consider civilized behaviour. Of course, the Kzinti consider humans baffling and uncivilized, as well ;p

Their not that fast though. I was out of their before he could change his undies. :LOL: Kzinti have the most classic responses.

Sure, but the Kzinti evolved fighting things MUCH bigger than themselves. How much would a pride of lions care if a pack of beagles attacked? Not much, I'd bet.

And if they did feel threatened somehow, well, potential slave species have been exterminated before...

Couple problems there: kzinti don't wear pants  :) 

And I'm not kzinti. Have you heard of Tree-of-Life? A Protector makes Kzinti seem cudly, and a band saw look like it has a conscience.

... Oh My God! Yuck! Ewww! Gahhh!!! Those kzinti just got revenge without even having to lift a finger... just lift their tails.

Sure, he'd get stronger, faster, and smarter, but he'd be shunned for going bald  :SURPRISED:

Anyways I'm sure the Kzinti would get along just fine with the Dog race things

KzintiPatriarch - have you read the most recent Man-Kzin wars books (book 11 and the novel Destiny's Forge)? I just recently got them - I'm cheap, so I wait for paperback.

Is it just me or did Niven allow a couple authors some pretty big freedoms in terms of back story? Specifically the Peace Corbin stories and the evolutionary history in Destiny's forge - are these considered canon?

I havent actually read the latest Man-Kzin Wars, or Destiney's Forge. I should put those at the top of my list. I'll have my gf watch Amazon for cheap copies. :)

Excellent. ;) I wonder if there are pics of the Syreen from SC3 that would be more recent/advanced? I dont remember if they were in that version of the game.

@KP: thanks. they were, and they were ugly; SC3 really just messed the whole thing up; I can understand why most fans don't count it as being part of the series. I'd LOVE for Stardock to finally receive the rights for SC4 (they were in talks a few years ago) and really do it up right, but until that glorious day...i'll just keep playing the port.

SC3 was a BIG disapointment for me too. I'll have the Kzinti make many sacrifices to the Fanged God in hopes they get the rights. ;)

Yeah, normally used books are 99 cents to maybe $4, just that one book is priced that high. I guess it's jsut supply and demand - last night I checked and they had more listed, and one was a steal at $15!  ;p 

At this rate, maybe I'll find an affordable one by June.
