Welcome to James Kemp's Wiki
This is a collaborative web platform that allows people to edit1) the web pages to provide additional content for some of the stories I have written and the roleplaying games that I am involved in, whether as a player or GM.
There are several namespaces operating slightly different wiki subjects. These are, in no particular order:
- Skyss - Story Background - a fantasy novel I wrote for NaNoWriMo 2016.
- Perfects - background for the near future story and some police roleplaying that I ran in that universe
- Theocracy of Daprav - A D&D campaign that I ran with Glasgow University Games Society around 2002-3.
- Jim Wallman's Universe - a roleplaying by e-mail campaign that I play in, this is an unofficial wiki and none of it is canon unless Jim says it is.
- Interstellar Freelance Unlimited - subset of the Universe pages covering the activities of a mercenary company that we are currently roleplaying every Full Moon.
- Earth Imperium pages. These cover the activities of the Government of the Solar republic (aka Earth Empire) in Jim's Humanity Will Prevail campaign, including the Earth Imperium News Items.
- Free Worlds Alliance - covering the activities of another emerging polity in the Humanity Will Prevail campaign. Mostly contributed by Eric Moroney.
- Universe Background - page collecting the various bits of background info that have come up in various e-mail discussions for the campaigns set in Jim Wallman's Universe.
- Master map of the Universe (6Mb PDF, as at 3212).
- Delta Green - some roleplaying campaigns about horror and conspiracy. The main one was set in Berlin in 1953.
- Free games rules - a collection of free rules for wargames and other sorts of face to face games that I have designed or run.
- Wargames rules - I'm not just a player of games, I also do rules for them from time to time as well as one-off games. A primary outlet for this is through Chestnut Lodge Wargames Group.
- Other free rules - at the moment just those for the 1689 (Orange or Lemon? and Bonnie Dundee, respectively about the debates in the Scots Parliament and then the military campaign of Viscount Dundee during 1689) and The Other Side of the COIN (about what makes people become insurgents). All games that I have have produced for Chestnut Lodge Wargames Group.
- Background for a near future universe where I have written some fiction and also run some roleplaying games in.
Comments and complaints to me at webmaster@full-moon.info please.

Background
Buck Fast Foods has established a corporate megadon ranch on the surface of the main colonised world in Spuk, Q8. The ranch sits in the plains area between the two major settlements and is intended to service the colony on the planet with fresh megadon meat as well as providing export potential.
BFF don't have the monopoly on meat from the colony but they are the only corporation to have established a farm, the other companies engaged in meat production all hunt wild megadons (normal practice in newly established colonies, very low set up costs compared to farming and you need not do it constantly). Over the year and a half since the farm was set up (well outside normal hunting areas for wild megadons) there have been consistent low level losses of megadons (profit loss on a mature megadon is in the region of 4000cr per animal). This in itself is not disastrous, there is room in the business plan for some losses due to accidents, sickness and animals wandering off. However the rate of loss has increased over the last year to around four animals per octant.
More importantly a valuable breeding group has recently gone missing (one male and three mature females - the potential income from this group if most of the eggs are grown to maturity is over 100,000cr per octant, although this assumes an integrated farming approach with a high hatching and survival rate, it is unlikely anyone who is not a specialist megadon farmer could make this sort of return).
It is clear that there is a group of megadon rustlers at work and the corporation thinks it knows who they are. However because the colony is so recently established there is not yet a local police force able to take action.
Logistics Support to the Combined Human Forces fighting in Sector EJ
The GORILLA Summit of T93 agreed that Humanity would support its fighting forces in Sector EJ with a logistics train operating out of NEW DRACONIS. It was concluded that at least 10 LSSI would be required for these efforts. There was commitment from most if not all polities at the summit. Implementation of the agreement was patchy however. The NEW MARS Summit of T96 determined that all capital ships and LSSI in Q7 be allocated to JAC.
Logistics Chain as at T101 start was:
MSN - 4 LSSI [Supported from Q7]
CC - 1 LSSI [hired T98, Supported from Q7]
RNV - 3 LSSI [Supported from Q7]
IEN - 3 LSSI and 8 C5 [Supported from Q7]
This met the published logistical requirements from JAC, including an allowance for any increased size of the fleet in EJ following the assignment of all capital ships in Q7 to JAC.
The wind-down of the logistics effort coincided with the withdrawal of the fleets from EJ.

Report into Allegations that a Sentient Artificial Intelligence Device (SAID) was developed by the Greater Asteel Federation Colonial Government based at Over in Quadrant Five.
Commission of Enquiry Chaired by Lord Bailey
For background briefing on the Stickney Treaty see JIM0000's briefing note on Stickney.
Executive Summary
Summary of Findings
The Enquiry found that the allegations that a SAID had been developed at Over, Q5 were true. However the work was not instigated by the GFA Colonial Government, although they were unwittingly used to further the development of the SAID.
The main villain in the piece was Johannes Schmidt who was acting with a number of other known international criminals who are wanted by most polities for crimes against humanity. Only two of the four have been captured by the authorities.
Governor Potato was the victim of a mind-control device implanted at the instructions of the SAID which allowed it to take control of aspects of the GFA Colonial Government against his will.
Recommendations
The enquiry made the following recommendations:
| All SAID hardware to be destroyed | <html><font color=green>Complete</font></html> |
