[OOC] Void of the Stars: A sci-Fi Nation Roleplay

[hacher5]

gotta ask, sukui, if those patrol ships are mine

[Sukui]

My patrol ships, which guard the miners.

[darkwolf687]

If they have been able to avoid detection, survive the inhospitable climate, managed to take a Triarian down before he even noticed they were there (A second is too long, due to the telepathic link, to remain completely unknown) then managed to move the Triarian and keep him alive returning him to stasis (They live on worlds with temperatures in excess of 400 Celsius) then ensure he cant even have a second awake and loose (They manipulate energy, you don't want that loose) while avoiding the big brother surveillance and dodging Triarian space security (In their main, relatively physiologically consistent form, they were made by the Aetherii and were existing within the Aetherii until their devolution, after which they spent just over a thousand years returning to space faring status) then yes. Just know the majority captured will be those from the interlude years due to that having been the easiest time to capture them (The period between devolution and space faring status)

[Darkraven]

Man, the Triarii sounds rather overpowered... :D

Also, I've read about magic being in this RP? That was weird.

I'm going to do the wise thing and start reconsidering whether I want to join this RP or not. There's alot of things which is making me doubt that my interest in this RP would be beneficial to myself and everyone... :D

No offence. Will get back to you guys.

[WilsonTurner]

I'm just the buggers with the superhard shells and close-range mines.

So STOP TOUCHING ME
or I will eat your peoples and gas your planets c:

[WilsonTurner]

Oh, and I started talking to Rogue, and his nation alone would be able to destroy most everyone if they were on the offensive, and controlled, rather than just a one-sided 'war' decided by the people on the opposing sides.

Draconians: Big genetically-enhanced mass-cloned super-intelligent cybernetic-implanted naturally-armored and-heavily-armored creatures with light rifles that are equal to a human's heavy assault rifle.

[darkwolf687]

Did Rogue also tell you how the Collective kicked both Equestrian and Draconian butt at the same time on Morn? Granted there were only a few Draconian teams, but that was proof they weren't an immortal fighting force

The truth is, for all the Draconians advanced technology, it seemed people were catching up. Supposedly one of the ships was carrying Dark Energy, which was rare in the Draconian empire. In the Collective, nearly everything is running off dark energy. Add their FTL travel, the use of quantum gates for inter galaxy travel while both the Equestrians and the Collective were moving between galaxies without it.

Light rifles equivalent to human heavy assault rifles? If I remember humans were still using ballistics, while everyone else was using much more powerful weaponry

And their empire was in chaos with the loss of Sanctum, under assault on many different fronts while facing assaults from powerful nations not just from the milky way but from other galaxies (Ylfrish anyone? They kicked Draconian butt too...) For all Rogues talk of tactics, its odd he doesn't consider the effect of losing your entire home galaxy that was acting as a command and control hub. Logistical mayhem, morale loss, broken command structure etc.
Bringing the milky way against them on top of it only shortened the time, their demise would have been ensured, even without the forces of the milky way, the Ylfrish were clearly just as destructive and powerful and presumably actually still had their logistics intact, since they launched a coordinated attack on a Draconian area of resource importance

[WilsonTurner]

I read about the Sanctum. He did it so that the Draconians wouldn't be invincible, but it still took him not being around to do anything. And the Ylfrish, again, were supposed to show that they weren't invincible, and the Ylfrish was a single fleet of everything they had, updated the best they could, and then lobbed at an undermanned, unknowing, outdated Draconian fleet. A couple outdated Battleship-Xes is hardly enough to fight off a more updated, galaxyfleet.

And attacking a high-value target is more than what could be said for any of you. You just said "We used EMPS and we took their planet with everything intact," and then somehow held it. You would take that one planet; they would glass, demoleculerize, or raze a dozen or more planets that the 'big three' inhabits.

And saying they weren't very powerful when you didn't do much but say "We're moving to another forum" right before the war broke out is saying more than you three saying "We won with EMPs and their planet defenses." I could come up with a more realistic war timeline, in with losses in proportion to power, intelligence (Data, from scanners and radar and scouts and the like), and possible tactics by generals that rise up, and then died nearer to the end of the war (To prevent a, perhaps, once-hypersensitive general from suddenly becoming calm and infinitely patient).

But I doubt that'll work out, so I'll just shush.

[Sukui]

Someone do an IC post already.

[darkwolf687]

What? EMPs? Where has this come from? i
I never said that, I don't recall whether keyguy or duck said that, but I didn't. What I have said before is that the Collective went out of their way to burn worlds they could have captured intact to make sure the Draconians on it were dead. That is mutually exclusive to using EMPs (Which obviously the Draconians could defend against) to take a planet intact. Really, does the Collective seem as though it wants or needs the Draconian planets?
The player of the Draconians had left, we needed the Draconian empire to be out of the way as a result. Ergo, dead.
Besides, wasn't there once a post from rogue saying most fleets in the milky way were disproportionately large to those found elsewhere? So what if the Draconian empire (Which once lost a front to one of these supposedly smaller fleets) didn't actually have the numbers to stop the milky way forces?
As for not hitting key positions, could you actually win such a war without it? There is barely written surrounding that war other than a few key dates because it was really a backstory to explain the disappearance of the Draconian Empire once its player left.
As for 'you three saying your moving forum' I had zero input in that suggestion in the first place, I merely voted on a course of action for the role play. If rogue had came over, would the war have been Rped? Of course, but he didn't so there was no point, it was easier for a time skip

[WilsonTurner]

KeyGuyPerson said About 5 years ago, a great war swept through the tiny sliver of the cosmos which included the entire local group of galaxies. This horrific war began when the Earth Alliance and Equestrian Empire joined forces to do the unthinkable: attack a Draconian planet. The Draconian empire controlled dozens upon dozens of galaxies, and the common belief was that they were invincible. However, those two empires managed to take that first planet with all technology and defenses intact though the use of EMP weaponry. When the Draconian Empire got news of the attack, they launched an invasion of the entire Milky Way. However, they made the mistake of destroying a civilization the Triarian Collective practically worshiped in the process, and thus they fought with extreme vigor. The combined forces of the Milky Way brought down the Draconian Empire, with the help of species they liberated from their control. Now, the war is over and the dust is settling. The Draconians have been defeated, and are considered extinct, courtesy of the Triarii. The nations occupied by the Draconians are being set free with the Milky Way nations, which now have extremely advanced Draconian technology to reverse-engineer.

Draconians would destroy everything before letting someone get ahold of it. How would Electromagnetic Pulses work against electronics built specifically against EMPs?

In addition, there is at least a single full fleet for each Battleship-X. These fleets were updated fleets, with better armor, weapons, and shields, and I believe reading about 4 or more Battleship-Xes in orbit around their first planet, in addition to the Battlecruiser, which was even bigger.

[darkwolf687]

...
If the draconians, for some reason couldn't produce emp resistant electronics why was there a war in the first place? They replaced their brains with electronics after all...
Alright, I have to agree the idea that they were unable to produce emp resistant electronics rather silly, because sure they would have made sure they knew that before replacing their brains with circuits...

[Keyguyperson]

Oh come on, I thought I changed that! I'll go and fix that up right now...

[WilsonTurner]

Ya, because that seemed extremely implausible. That's like getting a shot with nanoshells, with the frequency already tuned in on a thousand transmitters.

Nanoshells are microscopic, cellular-sized spheres of, say, gold. The thickness of the gold corresponds to a select signal, so if the thickness was 39145 units, then the frequency would be Frequency 39145 to dissolve the shells. If the shells are covering, say, a tiny bit of cyanide, and there were billions of these little gold-cyanide shells, then activating the sequence would promptly kill someone.

It would be illogical and unreasonable for a nation meant for war to have such a weakness. Using an EMP is like just taking all the oxygen away from Earth, and the taking what's left.

Seeeeeeeeee don't say I was wrong -.- xP

[null123]

Wilson, your starting to sound a bit like Rogue. You even have is habit of sticking whatever you call text faces to the end of your posts. It also suspicious that one or the first things you brought are the Dracs, you love to talk about.
On another note mostly everybody in the MCF thread was opposed to the Drac Empire, Keyguy pet it stick around for whatever reason.

[WilsonTurner]

There are a great many people who like using smileys, and he wasn't just a single unique person. I like smileys, they are much better to release hyperactiveness. I assure you, I'm not Rogue.

And I was most interested in Draconians because they are the most interesting, in my opinion. I play World in Conflict with a bunch of my friends often, so I find a nation that can complete all roles without having to rely on someone else, who might be fickle or keeping their own agenda. They are the most independent; therefore, I like them.

And I brought it up because it's one of the most prominent things in the first post. I didn't even have an account; I was surfing RPnation and other roleplay websites that are more focused on making money than making it easy-to-use for beginners (in my opinion), and then found this handydandy roleplay website with this roleplay. Followed the link, and read stuff. I get bored at school sometimes, and need something to keep me awake, so I printed out posts and read them when I get sleepy or bored.

And saying that I'm like Rogue just because I put text faces is stupid. Many people use text faces, they just might not all be on forums. I know some of my friends who put text faces on essays and papers, just 'cause.

If I should sound like Rogue, I should also [use these] instead of (these).

[hacher5]

sorry I haven't been posting lately, very busy, I'll probably make a much longer post on friday night (Pacific time).

[Keyguyperson]

Yeah, it was valid. I think you might be a bit paranoid, Duck, we all know you have never gotten along with Rouge.

It's a really strange sci-fi. The magic isn't fantasy magic, but fore a thing like the Force from Star Wars which we just call magic because Duck is a brony. The deities are just extra-dimensional beings that basically got bored and decided to intervene in our own dimension, and we do have people all across the spectrum of sci-fi. From Duck, who is fine with soft sci-fi combined with a bit of fantasy, I on the other hand, love scientific realism and thus have come up with the most plausible technology I can think of (It kinda stops at the anti-higgs particle. There is no such thing, I used it because I don't want to make an extremely advanced scientific breakthrough for a roleplay). You could probably enjoy this if you like NRPs in general, but it's your decision.
As for the Triarii being OP, they have plenty of weaknesses. In the old thread they were almost torn apart by a vision implanted in a single mind that spread to the rest within hours. Every nation here has it's strengths and weaknesses, even the Draconians were bad at tactics.

[WilsonTurner]

Though they did do some cool stuff. I like how there were Draconians in your (Keyguyperson) own homes and cities, and when an alien defense intelligence swept through them, you kinda just... locked them up, and didn't do much.

..right?

That's really good information. You could switch minds to a different body; take memories or thoughts without even touching them! :0 better tactic than waterboarding

[null123]

Your Rogue, your writing habits are way to similar.
