Due to more recent developments regarding space superiority (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=97379), the Associated Council of Incorporated and Private Enterprises, together with the Mad Scientists Conference, lead by Prof. Dr. Desty Nova, decided to build a weapon to defend DA against this new threats.

While studying the Tech the nations competing for orbital superiority use, the scientists and technicians working on the new project made an interesting discovery:

"Their technology seems to be almost invincible, with hundreds of death rays, turbo lasers, plasma guns and gravitonuclear weapons, but we found the one central weakness all this vessels, including Death Stars the size of the moon, have." ~ Project Leader Dr. Ido

A series of experiments followed, that definitely proved:

Cardboard is vulnerable to considerable large amounts of water.

"The truth struck us like... well, we couldnĀ“t believe it. It`s so easy, we couldnĀ“t believe it. But it`s true!"

The Mad Scientists Conference, which recently developed a sound- based communication system for space, immediately begun working on space- based weapon systems targeted at eleminating the threat of Cardboard spaceships and Cardboard- based ortillery strikes.

"The system is quite simple. We use long tubes, and pump water through them. The water then leaves the tube, and hits the Cardboard ship, causing terrible damage."

Firsts tests in the Mad Scientists Conference Facilities, executed on Dark Terror and Geforce 4 products, showed great success.

"Of course, for space- based warfare, we will need larger tubes and extreme amounts of water. But in the end, the cost/ benefit analysis makes clear that this is the most cost- effective space- based weapon system existing, once we implement the tech on DA ships."

It is not yet known how other nations react to this new tech, which is likely to tip the balance of power.

OOC: :lol:

Following this development, the Redactor Sect of the Cybrids scrapped all their plans for development of a fleet consisting of 7 trillion paper mache ships, since the price of cardboards has recently dramatically increased.

Instead they have begun development of vacuum resistant Gremlins in hope some people get them wet.
The results so far are shocking.

*Cybrids are running around like mad while Gremlins are pulling cables and computer chips out of them.*

Thelas justuses Accelerated Projectile (sp?) Cannons, who needs water... (And no, my ships are not made of card board, atleast if they are, so are Menelmacar's)

LOL - good one Angsty

IC:
The Knootian ministry of Defence seeks to aquire this mighty weapon.
