Lol, I see this will be fun one to work with.
They could also use a shuttle ya know :)

That was fun, Berets are hard to get right.

@PrinceAlexus

I think the point is... Do they have shuttles?

@Sep

Well I guess Il say they made a mistake and assumed!
It's 1km long, 2/3 to 3/4 ish the Lengh of their own ship and probbly way too large to safely land on planets easily.

Ships that big are usually deep space vessels in their perspective.

[PrinceAlexus]

How Raekar see's herself:



What everyone on Warspite is seeing:

@mattmanganon

Well, Lara apercuates her sense of style..but she wears stileto heals in the apocalypse as a choice!

[PrinceAlexus]

@MrCellophane

Are those books good by the way?
If you read them that is, I seen it advertised on audible?

I tend to lean more to warhammer 40k and other stuff, but I enjoy some variety in my work listening.

I am a fool and re-read their sheet and it does have shuttles.

We know Battlestars aren't meant to go into atmosphere...

@PrinceAlexus

Definitely true on berets.
As for the question of smallcraft, the RMN has you covered. Namely - in 'Corvus'' case, three or four M28 or M30 II Condor-class assault pinnaces.

@PrinceAlexus

Well, they're def. not 40K in style; Weber does deeper character exploration and looking at the 'macro' perspective of wider conflict, as well as the personal journey of Honor and those she associates with. The battle scenes, however, are definitely something different - you have to take physics and 'space-to-time and distance' into account when dealing with the foe, for example, and if you're getting into laser or graser range, you've REALLY messed up (though it was an earlier form of warfare in the RMN's history).

I personally enjoyed the heck out of them. If you want to start, I'd actually start with Books One and Two - 'On Basilisk Station' and 'The Honor of the Queen' - and see whether they're your thing.

@Sep

It looks really awesome though...one RP I did thay. With an...8km Battlebarge. It suited a Black Templer...I also rammed a ork mega titan before somehow escaping gravity again.

The second one had a rule you cannot use a starship as an melee weapon.

@PrinceAlexus rather than making you post it, I'm just assuming your CIC will offer an invitation to the Mother of Invention.

Once everyone's on the Warspite and happy with their hellos we can skip ahead to the actual talking part, rather than getting bogged down on the handshaking.

@MrCellophane

Command a capital starship. Still being beaten by a beret sounds entirely reasonable a thing.

@MrCellophane
Il give them a go on my list, I have a spare credit I not have anything to use on. I'm waiting for pre order for Seige of Vraks and may not be on for a while..

@Sep

Yes, you can assume. I just wanted to give each player a mention and invite, seeing as I started it, I did not want to leave the others out.

Aye, move em on. I can get bogged down in details, so move it forward!

I think @Forsythe is planning to do things in his next post.

Looking good so far, but I'm going to HAVE to ask:

How many of your CO's OTHER crew did you lose on the way to your ship's 'present'? :D

The Replicators are doing things.

I wonder who this mysterious child is. Maybe he's the power rangers biggest fan?

@MrCellophane

I'm going with them being plucked out from ME3 on the way from Eart to Mars at the start of the game. Hence why no non-earth personnel is present and why Miranda was vrought aboard - Shep will need a trusty XO and Kaidan at this point is so not it.

[Forsythe]

and done, me thinks.

History of the Ship:

The Normandy and it's crew have been at the forefront of their universe's fight against their own great filter in the form of genocidal machines. Theirs are quite a bit larger than the replicators, however this crew has experience fighting theasses of their thralls.

The ship is unique in its stealth capabilities, which are good enough to fool the sensors of the Geth, a local machine race. It is also quite powerful and durable, having bested a Collector cruiser in a 1v1 combat and survived a suicide mission to the galactic core.

After said mission, the ship, originally built by the organization Cerberus, has been retrofitted by the Alliance, just before the Reapers attacked en-masse.

Daniel has plucked them out of their universe on their way to Mars after Earth fell. As such, the ship is heavily undercrewed and lackin it'd usual complemwnt of alien specialists.

@Forsythe

Isn't that right after Earth has been invaded, with humanity quite possibly going to be wiped out?

Damn Daniel, get better timing.

[PrinceAlexus]

So just for fun I decided to test what AI could do and it was a little Derpy.

AI ain't taking over yet!
Some are better than others and these not the worst!

See, you described the new Replicator as a small child and now all i can imagine is this scene
