As far as i have observed, Equestrians lack tactics and strategies, relying on their technological strength.

" I offer some of the most powerful warriors the universe has ever seen and a fleet to match it.".This is national pride, not necessarily the truth. just making that clear.

The LCF wouldn't care. They have a single planet left and their technology is that of late 20th century or early 21st century Earth, aside from the Warp Drive and antiproton streamers. They're still basically a galactic scale third world nation.

Pitful Ceramus InvasionThe bombardment failed, mainly because the planetary shield was active, and all the defenses were fully prepared. The Fleet shield of the Equestrian Fleet was active as well, and due to the superior weapons it was taking out the Ceramus ships quite easily, and by superior weapons the Equestrians were just launching many many volleys of Balefire megaspells at the Ceramus fleet. It was probably massive amounts of overkill but they had the megaspells to spare so why not. A fleet from Lakafalle is being redirected back to Equestrian Space.My response to this was to come in and blow up your planetary shield and attacking your fleet.Considering 40 or so ships bombarded your shield and 60 or so ships began to engage your space forces, you just went "Damage? Fuck that, my planet has a shield, my ships start to wipe out his easily.You even labeled it, in the title used to discern what you are responding too and thus is generally not an IC title "Pitiful Ceramus Invasion" Given that I think jumping in and destroying your planet shields so Sukui actually had a chance was pretty well justified. I didn't even state I destroyed any of your ships in that post, or state any damage that had been done to them, despite 17 other ships firing. Oh, and in the next post, there was no damage stated for your own ships, but two of my battleships and a Ship of the line were crippled by your own decision." Almost all of the Defense stations are destroyed. A lot of warships and frigates are probably lost, and one or two of the carriers could go down soon." Say this stuff in your post, notice how I am tracking the damage of my ships? On the other hand, I don't even have numbers to confirm how your fleet is doing, I have to guess how many I have destroyed, if any.

I will list my casualties when the battle is over.

But that's absolutely useless, how can I know how to adapt my stratergy, know when to retreat etc if I don't get a proper view of what's going on lol

Thats not relevant atm because your still in rape mode with your weapons.

That is a lie. A Draconian fleet with the same units as any of topmost 3 empires of all could still wipe them out, albeit with losses. The Draconian footsoldiers are unmatched in hand-to-hand combat [except against Supremes, since they kinda taught them everything, and trained against them], and Supremes have very, very powerful personnel weapons that you do not want to see used, both anti-tank, anti-personnel, and anti-bunker, even though they aren't the most courageous. Plus Supreme ships are massive, and powerful, and there's even that other Supreme spinner ship that's just sitting around at a central-ish point, snagging everyones' communications and sitting around like a bunch of restless fat tech guys.

And rape mode usually comes into play when one side has a better advantage. For example, if you sit behind your shields, relying on them to protect you, and you just fire and fire straight at the enemy fleet, then sure, you'll get disadvantaged. Other ships may be narrower, with powerful forward weapons, and so while you will have much more trouble hitting them, they'll be firing superslugs into your shields, and maybe even past them. Other ships may have really powerful broadside shields, with all their weaponry on two sides, so once they get broadside, you'll be bombarded too much to fire back.

If you have shields AND weapons AND thrusters engaged, then you'll be average, at best, in all of them. You'll not be moving at max efficiency, you'll not be firing at max power, and you'll not be protected at max protection.

However, if you were to have, say, a Battleship that has reactors specifically for its' energy and kinetic weapons, and uses other ships to provide shielding and others, similar to a gas tanker, to lend power to them, then they can keep moving behind a safety wall.

Or, even better, you can simply start investing in stealth tech, or disruption tech, and make it so that you won't even have to put up shields. Or, oh my god, you can invest in weapons predicting tech to throw up shields where it's needed to stop a round, instead of always having a shield up.

The Supremes are arrogant; they have big enough ships with plenty of power so that their shields are on an entirely new level. You'd have to board them [Slow moving objects such as a shuttle isn't blocked, though fighters require a control officer to open up a hole in the shield, and Corvettes are automatically admitted through the shield by merging their own with the big ships']

No, its not a lie, he didn't outright state you were lying. Is he lying in the case if North Korean soldiers pretending they are hot shit?

Oh look Wilson parading on about the Mary Stu Empire that was godmod and powergaming out the ass.

Well that was disappointing. Most fallible god and cowardly heroes that have existed for a long time...

The Delphans are way better! Woo! Let's hear it for the Delphans!

Hey the RPs struck the right coords. When you know what strings to play it is easy to control someone.

Well,I would have thought corrupting a god would be slightly less of a monty python sketch

"Join evil"
"No!"
"Oh please..."
"Well okays..."

Anyways, Delphan insult Collective, time for an incoherent speech into the overall and literally impossible possible impossible etc goal of the Collective

Yeah... Wilson you kindof missed the point of my post.

I was trying to say I wasn't godmodding my forces like yours by saying outright that they were supreme at all.

I was saying that the phrase I quoted, "best warriors in galaxy "was just my leaders national pride. Thought that was pretty clear lol.

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised Wilson missed the entire point of that post. especially since it was laid out in front of him without any fluff whatsoever.

Also, I'll be waiting for a response to the Kelsof thing.

Seeing as keyguy gave the only response to my post, ill get a post written up tomorrow.

I did actually make a pm conversation thingy, but duck never replied.

plus it's not really god-moding, since they were much smaller compared nations 50 thousand years before. However, with all these much-emerging empires reborn, and 50 thousand years to get a little buffer, then I would think that their fleets [which were small 50 thousand years ago, again, but are still very large compared to these fleets of under 100] are a bit better. Pulling stuff out of my ass would be me using a god or goddess to shut off engines and weapons and stuff. *cough cough*

However, the Supremes have the technology, and they have the ships, and they have the soldiers. It's not like they were set back like everyone else. They can go somewhere else, so far away that nothing that happens in the Milky Way Galaxy, so far that everything that happens in the universe as the Milky Way Galaxy, won't do ANYTHING, not even a single, tiny flash of light.

They were almost entirely unaffected.

And yes, I understand that, Monkey Pants.

I'm just glad I have my get out of Jail free card with wise known as warp space :P
