Uh... No 3 does have a disadvantage. You'd have to lower the planetary shield to pass transports through to reach the ships, or to bring the ships down for refueling. Both make your planet vunerable, as well as the refueling area as once it is identified you can bet it would be a priority target for attackers...

Or I can just open up a tiny hole in the shield temporarily to allow a single freighter to past through and supply fuel. I don't have to lower the entire shield. Plus the stations also have small stockpile.

Number 3 is simply take out the refueling, number 2 is take out the freighters, and number 1 is just, keep shooting.

And read my posts, somewhere I put that I had two fleets, and I think in my first Drac post, I put 40 ships for the first one.

[null123]

For number 3 taking out the depot would be extremely difficult since there only opening a small enough hole for one freighter to pass through, and the depot would be heavily defended.

And to control shields to THAT degree with just some runes and gems is a bit OP, don't you think? That's like throwing up a shield with all your concentration, and then still focus enough to pick up a waterbottle, and pass it through the shield.

And the frieghter can be destroyed in transit and that small hole can be fired through...

Can I remind you that a snall hole in this context is several hundred meters wide?

[darkwolf687]

And also, yes, I did just try and force your magical element to bond with a standard element in order to create an impossible element that would be highly unstable and breakdown, thus attempting to overload your shield gems... Chemistry can be fun rofl

Did you forget the complex magical projector part?

Duck has a point here. They are already able to shape the shields how they please, they can probably put a hole in it.

Of course, the hole will still be big enough to shoot through.

* sigh* Duck...... how would you know I sent that to you specifically? Unless you have been specifically tracking my ships commo, you wouldnt know it was to me. I understand you being suspicious, thats normal, but there is no way you would know I was talking just to you.

[null123]

I think it be pretty easy to tell if a communication was sent at one ship. Its just a bunch of waves after all, so if it was just sent at me the path of the waves would indicate that. If you had really intended it to be everyone then it would spread out and hit all ships.

[Apollo26]

You wouldnt be able to track that, unless you had gear for it.

This is from your post " Luckily however it was just a scout ship, such ships were equipped for probing planets and mapping space, not for detecting stealth ships"

[null123]

Yeah by assume your using radio waves to communicate correct? Thats not something that requires super-complex gear to track.

[Arkay]

@Duck: Well not exactly. Seeing as he sent out a burst message (which is a message without the residual data that is left behind), by the time the message got to you there would be no waves for you to track. Its like how a anti-radiation missile tracks its target. It there is no radiation for it to follow, then the missile's path does not change.

Also I'm curious how you deduced that the has nothing wrong with the ship, since its stealth systems are active and had moved from its original position after sending the message. Unless you were tracking it from its point of origin before it entered stealth I find it hard to believe that your scout ship can penetrate its stealth systems.

[Apollo26]

Thank you for saying what I was thinking Arkay, I was about to give up and be like " Alright duck, whatever man"

[null123]

If its sent a message its has revealed itself, thats what Apollo implied anyways.

[Arkay]

So I just re-read his post and I see no mention of him dis activating his stealth systems. In fact he specifically mentions keeping them active and moving from the point of origin.

“Open a channel with the enemy contact and tell them we are in need of assistance, encrypt a mayday signal in there too. Make sure to keep our position hidden, send it in a burst message and then lets use the compressed air thrusters to move us away from the source."

This isn't a hard fix Duck. Just edit your previous post without the scanning.

[null123]

Welp im still blind
will edit when I get access to a computer

[Apollo26]

Well thank you Arkay, I feel like I should thank you for fighting my battle. Given the fact that I was not going to argue.
