[OOC] The Transreality War: Ship-Based Sci-Fi Multiverse RP

But yeah, I'd support a vote in favor of just getting things done.

Democracy shall reign supreme.

The only eyebrow raiser on Kilo's sheet are those nukes. I'm assuming nuclear missiles aren't all that overwhelming against the tech everyone else is packing?

The standard photon torpedoes on a Federation vessel is far more powerful than a nuke, iirc.

Oh, the couple of nukes KILO has?

Not the hundreds a certain loving battlestar has?

Nukes aren't that effective in space anyway. Almost everyone has shields that block out the radiation and my battlestars hull is designed to take hits (I mean during the show the Galactica takes hundreds of nuke hits when it is over 50 years old and it keeps going. Looks hellova beat up though). To be honest Nukes are only really effective against ground targets when fired within an atmosphere as the shockwave is the most devastating part. If you're worried about nukes be far more worried about that Mac Cannon.

You has one.

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

I'd vote yes for Kilo, but what about my Combines, guys?

I never noticed you had hundreds of nukes..

But, yeah. My knowledge of interuniversal weapons tech is...sketchy, to say the least. My vote says Kilo is accepted.

[Sep]

Well, I only have about 12 really devastating nukes. The other ones are quite small, probably on par with todays nukes in terms of strength.

TWO MAC cannons. The Thanatos/Marathon Class Destroyers where created to take on the more heavily shielded spacecraft, hence why they carry less nuclear weaponry than most Halo ships of the time. The strategy literally boils down to firing the two cannons to blow a big ass hole in the ship, then missile spam the hell out of it until there is nothing left moving.

Granted, they are really suppose to work in pairings of 3 or four to be truly devastating, so who knows. Point is MAC cannons are something to be more worried about, cause it don't give a shit about your shields! >:D

Oh and I'm okay with the Combine ship. Unexpected idea to say the least. XD

[Sep]

My main problem with the combine tower is the whole fact that the Combine can cross interdenominationaly so there is nothing stopping them snooping around going "Oh, look. Theres our ship." Then invading it.

Your ship I don't mind, though as again with the mac cannons I think my hull would stand up to it better than anyone elses. Mine is designed to crumple and absorb hits.

I'll just use the excuse that the Combine doesn't give a shit about the disappearance of a single link tower, at least until I can stabilize (Or blow up) my core to get communications/a super portal going, which I'm going to avoid doing for at least 90 percent of the RP.

WrongEndoftheRainbow said
While most of my forces are spaceworthy, that says little to their ability to maneuver. While they could survive in space, I'll probably be losing a lot to Tatooine orbit, where they burn up in the atmosphere. Not to mention I'll probably get a lot of Stalkers flash frozen, meaning that'll hit my main ability to repair damage. As for the Combine inevitably invading, I'm planning to hold off any communication whatsoever until the end of the RP, that being said, it could very well extend the RP where instead of the Kith as the enemy, it's the Combine. As for the multiversal empire problem, yes, I'm perfectly willing to have a talk about how they could fit together backstory-wise.

Already touched on that subject.

I know, I know. Though you point out why you don't call for help. I mean I presume that a link tower is a big resource, why wouldn't they look for it?

May have a lot of them but still. That is like a F-16 going missing and the Americans just going "Meh, we've got plenty more."

[Sep]

However I won't be continuing with this anyway.

I'm mainly in it with Echo and to be honest, with what we've had plot wise so far and how it has fallen apart I cannot be bothered carrying it on myself. If I were to do it I'd start it again in my own way with my own twist on the Antagonist.

I'll fulfill my BSG fix somehow.

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

A link tower isn't a big resource when you've got countless universes with countless galaxies full of resources to mine.

How about we just site the age old "Suspension of Disbelief" because we just want to have?

[Flamelord]

This may be a mistake, given how involved all the character stuff seems to be, but w/e. I'll make it work somehow. And hell, this may not last anyway, so it couldn't hurt, right?

Crew

+Name: Ryu Hijikata
+Job: Captain
+Description: Born in 2143 in Tokyo, Earth,Hijikata is an almost legendary captain in the Earth Defense Forces, renowned for his battle tactics during the war against the Gamilar Empire. Afterwards, with the war ending in victory, his reputation and skill resulted in Hijikata being made Captain of the Andromeda, the new flagship of the fleet. He was tasked with keeping the Yamato from being stolen, but disobeyed orders when faced with the flight of the Yamato from the solar system. Later led the fight against the Comet Empire's main battle fleet, and it was his ingenious strategy that resulted in their defeat.

He distinguished himself under fire in several desperate battles, which resulted in him being made the XO of the Andromeda when the ship was launched.

So... Sitrep, guys?

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

If I had to guess..

[mattmanganon]

Will people stop saying that this is dead, seriously, I've seen threads recover from worse... Much worse... No, Assalya's on a little hiatus. If we need to approve CS', then would there be any objections to me doing so?

[Flamelord]

Obviously not my place to comment since I'm not actually in the game yet, but I wouldn't mind.
