[OOC] From Stardust, To Stardust

[Keyguyperson]

What the fuck, did i see an entire empire commit sudoku? Logic not found

Unfortunately

Am I missing something here? Please tell me Duck isn't actually doing that. Because if he is, then I will have to unaccept his Equestrian app because I don't want someone in this roleplay who thinks they can break character whenever the fuck they want on a whim. I also find it quote funny that Duck decided to insult be based off of something that he's completely fine with that I did in order to do something that he wanted to happen without doing the fucking stupid suicide thing.

I just cant imagine a vast star empire with such a prolific effect on this particular galaxy just.... dying off. It'd be a long process. Look at Germany in ww2.. facing against nations twice its size still took years to destroy. I cant imagine a nation like the iscandarians with their advanced magic weaponry just... flopping over. I can only think of two major ways that empire could fall in a reasonable amount of time. 1, A civil war, which would utterly destroy this part of the galaxy. with how connected the iscandarians are, the entire region would be pulled in and every one would be affected big time. 2, An outside invader of incredible power, like the hau, arrive and open a can for what ever reasons. This however would lead to everyone being affected big time. Likely occupation of everyone or some shit (make for an odd oppression plot but I cant see many aside from myself having a fun time exploring the whole, being oppressed by powers above and trying to overcome.) I understand you're trying to retcon the iscandarians for your brony race but seeing as your iscandarians are so involved with everyone, it'll be a huge change for them to just fade away.

Well in that Armada was the last Immortal, which was the whole force that kept the Iscandarians together. Without her there will be a massive split as every political and military figure attempts to seize power. so yes there is a civil war and with outside forces attacking... yeah.

Remember my whole "The Iscandarians are mindless sheep" thing? Without anyone to tell them what to do, everything falls apart because, well, Iscandarians are mindless sheep. Then there's the fact that the entire Terran Armada will be bombarding their planets. Taking all that into account, they'll die off pretty quick.

[null123]

Yeaaah because its totally something the Terrans would do, bomb innocent civilians. /sarcasm

Yes. It is. Remember WWII? Do you think that bombs only fell on military bases? In every war, the civilians can be your worst enemy. They're the ones that build all the vehicles and make all the weapons, they're the ones that will be a thorn in your back because you just conquered their home. Besides, do you honestly think the Terrans would invade a planet? That's just stupid. They would have to transport millions upon millions of soldiers across light years of space over the course of multiple years, then lose the vast majority of them while trying to land their damn ships. After that, the remaining few would be fighting against billions of enemies in constant battle without any break, only to be finally taken out by aerial bombing. The only way for the Terrans to fight an offensive war is by killing every last thing from orbit. Think about it. The Iscandarians threatened to destroy humanity entirely, and the humans know for a fact that they are capable of it (since they gave them their current warp drive). That kind of threat isn't taken lightly, and so far there hasn't been any sign of the civilians trying to stop the genocide (Even the earlier rebellion is thought to have been faked). As far as humanity is concerned, this is a war of extermination. Either the Iscandarians or humanity goes extinct, and nothing else will ever end the war. So stop trying to tell me that I'm being unrealistic in my depiction of the humans. Also, never, ever tell me that I'm out of character. You suggested that the Iscandarians commit suicide after the lost one battle, you have no right to tell ANYONE that they're being out of character. In fact, new rule: Duck can't tell anyone that they're out of character! That's going in the OP!

[ASTA]

Interesting. It appears Keyguy finally decided to grow a pair.

[null123]

Commit Suicide? I do not know where this keeps coming from, do not actually ever remember doing this.

[Unfortunately]

Lol @unfortunately: Seppuku: ritual suicide Sudoku: a math based puzzle I got a good laugh outa that one hahah

@Apollo26

Yeah, yeah, i know and i intended to make that mistake there. But just in case, it's also a Godwin's law statement, as defined: the best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question, it's to post the wrong answer.

-out-of-character comment- /sarcasm

-Wall of Text- In fact, new rule: Duck can't tell anyone that they're out of character! That's going in the OP!

@Keyguyperson

I don't see that rule in the OP Put it in the OP pl0x

@duck55223

You know goddamned well where it comes from.

Interesting. It appears Keyguy finally decided to grow a pair.

@ASTA

It would appear that there is a direct correlation between having enough of this shit and the appearance of sex cell-producing organs.

[Unfortunately]

Shit, Keyguy actually delivered and straight up put it in the OP Praise be unto Keyguyperson

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

I've been busy as hell recently, and either been working or sleeping. No energy for my hobbies. That's my excuse for my utter lack of posts in the thread. With Wilson leaving, I have no idea who I'll make first contact with, so if somebody wants to meet up with my nation let me know, then yell at me on Steam until I write stuff. Also, I'll get around to adding my nation's app to the characters tab. Eventually.

I sent you a request.

@Keyguyperson

Holy shit, what happened while I was gone? Anyway, yeah, we know that humans have a massive propensity for evil haha >:) I'll make a post later today. I find it important to mention, as there was talk about quadrants, that I like to think the Ghaj is actually from a different quadrant of the galaxy (one that's swarming with not si peaceful alien factions xD) and is colonising this one rather than the other way around

@darkwolf687

Heh heh heh. Humans will commit genocide if they feel like it's the right thing to do. Which is kind of funny, considering how they're currently committing genocide to redeem themselves from committing genocide. After this, however, they might get a wee bit arrogant.

[Apollo26]

Ive been scheming some things to do to the Iscandrian civilians if I find em, or when I decide to join the team effort. I feel like some of the victorious nations need to take a darker turn (heheheheh). Idk, Im caught between genocide myself or just mass Iscandarian internment.

@Apollo26

Pfft. Darker turn? The humans have vowed to kill every last Iscandarian in existence. If they were invading planets instead of glassing them, we would have concentration camps. Hell, the current Terran symbol is ripped straight out of Star Trek's evil Mirror Universe. Considering the path I have laid out, there might be less "United" and "Federation" in "United Terran Federation". What I'm saying is that it'll be a military dictatorship.

[Apollo26]

Hey, the septonians are on board with committing iscandarian genocide, just give us a call....or transmission....or something.

[Monkeypants]

So the strongest military in the galaxy just plops. This is going to be fun to watch.
