From Stardust, to Stardust: Tales of Andromeda, a Sci-Fi Fantasy RP

Consideribg covenant ships can actually be just a few hundred meters from the ground, they are clearly built to take gravity, at they very least they can withstand more than 4 times the gravity of Earth (Which covenant ships would have to be able to hold due to "Ti", the homeworld of the Lekgolo) and I would personally wager they could handle more. Furthermore, as demonstrated in Halo 4. A rag tag fleet of covenant ships recieving little to now maintainance in over 4 years is pulled into a forerunner planet by a gravity well and yet many ships survive and are fully operational to the best of our knowledge. Also, such a stratergy would be impractical; The power requirement would be too immense and the generator would likely end up damaging its self (Remember that the gravity would work on the boosters, shield generators, presumably the shields, the power cells etc,attached to the device, and if it is powerful enough to crush fleets its powerful enough to implode...

@darkwolf687

Stop ruining my ideas with your logic IT'S SCIENCE FICTION ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE /me falls into the sky

@WilsonTurner

It's Science Fiction Fantasy, even the impossible is possible. Including making the possible impossible through making the impossible possible because WE HAVE MAGIC AND NANOBOTS. MAGIC. AND NANOBOTS. NOTHING CAN STOP US.

@Keyguyperson

And that superduper rare thing that Duck found on one of your core planets from several hundred lightyears away! Dude, you should just mine it before he can get to it, and cart if off as they take the planet :D

@WilsonTurner

Pfft. The Abh are gonna be all like "Oh look they used that glowy blue stuff to build death robots, let's look for that on all of our planet. Oh look our homeworld is made out of it thus explaining it's gravity/size ratio how convenient. Let's make an army of death robots so we can actually invade planets without losing our entire armed forces." Then this roleplay becomes a mecha anime because two nations decided "The only way to invade planets is with giant death robots".

@Keyguyperson

Numero uno problem: The Draconians have antimatter missiles. "OP DEATH BOT SIGHTED!" "LOCKING ON!" *death bot is turned into stardust*

@WilsonTurner

TITLE DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP Then again, antimatter weapons against death bots in atmosphere doesn't strike me as the best idea. Regular missiles? Sure. Antimatter ones? Continents generally like to exist.

Anyone know this 'series'?

@WilsonTurner

The name of the series is in the lower right-hand corner of the image itself.

@ASTA

Hi there ASTA, planning to join the RP yet?

@Zadubadabu

A) You should know that ASTA probably isn't joining, unless you're not paying any attention or are feigning ignorance, and B)ASTA, you've been told repeatedly to stop posting without joining. Yes, it's right there, I realize thqt, but that's part of the fun- teasing whoever doesn't know that it's right. Congrats, you're ignoring the GM and ruining a joke.

@WilsonTurner

While I support the freedom of people to snark wherever they want, yeah, a lot of the people here really don't want you to stay apparently (I mean, Duck just hates you, but some people surely have legit opinions). Coming from someone who has respect for you, please stop posting here unless you have something nice to say that isn't also an attack. Still technically against the rules, but as you might have noticed, Duck and I aren't fully cooperating. Especially with *COUGH* some things *COUGH* existing in general. Oh yeah, by the way Zab, is there any news on how long until you get your next post out? Don't want to pressure you, it's just that this arc has a lot of potential.

@Keyguyperson

Why are Duck's thoughts considered non-legitimate?

@Samebito

I never said Duck's thoughts were non-legitimate. I said that "I hate you shut up" is not a valid reason for "banning" someone. I very much hope that he had other reasons, but honestly, I feel like the only reason he "banned" Asta was because he was angry at him for taking those shots at him.

@Keyguyperson

Oh. Has he ever considered learning how to deal with the dank burns?

Except for the even better magic nanobots the Genocide Kingdoms of Um'Lak'U'Fakk'U possess.

War of the Seven Suns (Sci Fi Naval RP)

someone who can bring me my coffee But seriously now, it was mentioned that we need a rear admiral a bit ago. So maybe one of those'll be swell. Also, welcome!

Nuvuya (New Spirit) - A revolutionary fantasy

It's great that someone else is finally here, but Zombieaccount's signature says he'll be gone until May. unfortunately. I'm not sure why, but that's just how things are. But there's nothing stopping you from going ahead and putting a CS together. Maybe this'll get picked up again later or sooner than we think? Could always ask permission to keep this going in his absence if he happens to drop by as well, I suppose.

War of the Seven Suns (Sci Fi Naval RP)

Gah forget it. No time for this RP stuff anymore.

@zombieaccount

Aw man. It sucks to hear that. I hope things are okay.

War of the Seven Suns (Sci Fi Naval RP)

I'm really pleased with the quality of writing and creativity from everyone who's submitted a character sheet so far.

@Flagg

Aw shucks, mister. Also, I agree. I'm really digging all of the characters so far, though the Admiral is especially hardcore. Same goes for Grand Duke Konrad von Ravenstein (Though he is more the worrying variety of hardcore. "Utterly disposable assets" indeed.)

Areapolis - City of Wonders! (Always Open)

Wryns could always be some other, even scarier monster in the setting. One that literally eats Wyverns for breakfast.

War of the Seven Suns (Sci Fi Naval RP)

@Samebito and ASTA: wow, lots of cats and dogs. Firstly, as I mentioned I've asked players to play ships HSR 3 or less. I think for xenos privateers/allies, I'll ask you guys to play as HSR 2 or below ships (you can play as more than one- a small fleet or task force, perhaps?- and the ships can be of xenos origin and design). It doesnt really make sense for a humanocrentric state like the Kingdom to give the most powerful hardware to mercenaries and xenos auxiliaries.

@Flagg

Aight. I left it mostly vague what I'd be going with in case of any problems anyway. Am I to assume that things are otherwise pretty acceptable so far, however? Or is there other stuff I should be checking over while I'm settling on what ships to go with? I'm 90% sure this is my first Advanced level RP, so I apologize for any herpitude to be found.

Areapolis - City of Wonders! (Always Open)

You say tomato, I say spatula.
