[OOC] No Turning Back [Sci-Fi Space RP]

[Dion]

@Sep depends on who you ask. Right now that alien ship is fucking up the ark, even if it doesn't seem like it. And something, something tells me that these aliens/organic ships are smarter than to send just 1 ship to attack us. Hmm..

[Sep]

@Buddha I think @Heat can attest to this, never try to fathom my plans.

You'll get a headache.

[Dion]

@Sep Well, from a tactical point of view, when you see 12 gigantic ships taking off, you want to make sure you send at least something that can take down all 12 of them. So one ship that can deal out, what was it, 11% of a shield? That wouldn't cut it. You'd take down one, maybe two, before they reached the eye.

So maybe this one is just a nail -- a ship meant to pin down a few of the arks, while more of the ships are getting ready to phase into the earths atmosphere to take down the rest of the arks.

That's just what I'd do, if I was a gigantic organic ship.

[Sep]

@Buddha You shall have to wait, and see.

[boomlover]

@Sep can we see the eye from where we are at?

[Sep]

@boomlover It'll be on screen, I mean plain old eyesight it'll just be a dot.

[Sep]

@CanisMajoris2 Children did not get aboard except in stasis (where they can't be retrieved), unauthorized personnel can't just run into the command center and there is no window...

Also tone down the casualties dude we took one hit xD

[boomlover]

Man i am not happy with this post at all. Not because it's short ( which is also a disappointment) but also because i lacked the vocabulary to write the way i wanted it. I hope it's actually somewhat readable. Then again i did get a goddam post out so it's better than bloody nothing i suppose. As a matter of fact some criticism would be appreciated about what i did wrong with this one.

[Sep]

@boomlover can you tweak it a lil' as I don't want the escorts blown up quite yet. Also bear in mind that at the time the ship appears we've already been in flight for a couple of minutes. If you're struggling with the post and finding words, snip it for now and take it to the Google Doc and I can either help or you can spend a little more time looking at it. No need to rush it if you aren't happy with it.

[boomlover]

@Sep yeah id like your help. And that google doc would be appreciated.

[Sep]

@CanisMajoris2 other than the couple of errors I addressed it is a good post, but also remember (for future reference) this is just takeoff not everyones going to be in a mad panic just yet. Though yes this fight won't help.

[Sep]

@boomlover Same as before

[CanisMajoris2]

@SepYeah, my bad. (In case you didn't know, I'm sort of new to forum RP. I'm used to 1x1, responding quickly, etc.) Still getting used to it. ;)

[Sep]

@CanisMajoris2 If you're ever unsure before a post, feel free to PM me I'm more than willing to help you go over it, I'd rather do that than have to be a dick and give corrections. Just [snip] it for now and we can post it back in after.

[Sovi3t]

My IC post will come soon enough just wondering however a few things..

One, my character is gonna lock down important rooms mainly due to incase of a boarding attack, what is the protocol for that?

Two, for the gunships whats the number of people required to properly man it to full effectiveness? I atleast plan to get them on standby.

[Sep]

@Sovi3t Situating teams outside said rooms, having others on patrol. For gunships, one pilot, one gunner.

[Sep]

A note for everyone, @Boomlover and @CanisMajoris2 are tweaking their posts slightly, so if you're planning to interact with them I request that you wait. If not you may continue. Both are new to this level of RPing so I hope you'll have the patience and willingness to help.

[boomlover]

And i have reposted gentlemen.

[Sep]

@The Spectre I managed to find the Admirals picture you so graciously made for me, but do you have Lorettas? I forgot to bookmark it.
