All the Federation mourns the loss of over eight million Allied lives, AoN, ESUS, and independant, over and on Normandeicht. May this common cause bring us together.

With vital data collected during the battle, Federation scientists have been ferverenlty working on new technologies, and implementing already existing ones.

Improvements:

#1 All Shipyards will be upgraded with robotic construction capabilites, drastically increasing production at all Federation Yards
#2 All Federation vessels will be refitted with improved automated capabilities, reducing crew size and improving battle efficiency
#3 Federation battlenets will utilize existing quantumn space technology to almost instantly transmit and recieve messages, etc.
#4 All Federation territory will be monitered with outposts, ensuring detection of any invasion fleets
#5 All Federation Worlds will be guarded by Starbases and new weapons tech platforms

Technologies:

#1 Quantumn Phase Torpedoes: Central torpedoe controls phasing, modulating weapon. Releases energy from Quantumn Singularity. Can be modified to detonate anti-matter or other warhead
#2 Subspace Gravometric Pulse: Disrupts subspace in a wave eminating from firing ship. Causes Shivan Subspace shielding to drop momentarily. First used at the Battle of UA.
#3 Genesis Torpedoe: Releases enourmous amounts of energy, converting to matter and organizing into solar systems. Uses very volatile proto-matter.
Could reorganize matter of Shivan Worldships, converting into habitable planet for Federation colonization.
#4 Phase Shield: Phases anything to come into contact with the shield, allowing the ship to pass through anything. Now, to be nice, it can be set to re-phase the matter after it passes through the ship.

The Federation hopes these new efforts may prevent the terrible tragedy of Normandeicht from happening again. All Allies of the Federation, excluding Hive Fleet Immodious, shall be sent plans for weapons upon request.

Newly Formed,
Federation War Council

ooc: more to come... working out kinks... shall be on here within a day...

Intresting. The disadvantage of the Genesis torpedo is that the Shivan vessels have lots of point defense. You'd need thousands of genesis torpedos to destroy a worldship.

Yeah... we're having trouble building one for the reconstruction of the Normandeicht system...

Also... To Any Shivans... you have no idea about these new weapons...

bump for strange shivan eyes....

Any(b)ody have (u)(m)... Ideas for anti-shivan weapons (p)lease?

Hey, how about a atomic net, strung between two ships, that acts as a sort of seive, separating ships passing through it at the atomic level. The net could be reinforced with a structural integrity field... The smaller shivan capitals and fighers could be destroyed almost immediately... they would appear to dissapear, they would disintegrate

OOC: Since I'm currently wondering about forming a future tech puppet, I'd better watch this. Do the subspace sheilding of the Shivens provide protection against light? If not lasers or bomb pumped gamma ray lasers might be effective, though my knowledge of Shivens or future tech systems isn't that good...

Shivan shields create a bubble of subspace around the ship. Now, everything that passes into this bubble is transferred into subspace.

-OOC-

Mekanta can probably make something to forcefully "Double Edge" the portal so that it works both ways. Nothing gets in, but nothing gets out unless they take down thier own shield.

OOC: I take it subspace is another dimension? Jeez, I'd try to capture a few ships and attempt to get this technology, give 'em a taste of their own medicine, so to speak.
*makes that *future* future tech puppet priority*

you'd have to find a way to convert the one-dimensional field into a full rift...

And, subspace is another level of space. It is not realspace, being different in the laws of physics and other things. However, Gravity affects both subspace and hyperspace. It appears to be one of the few things that affect these levels of space all together...

Hey, uh, well, I have an idea for a phased field shield, phasing all things passing through, allowing the ship to pass through anything...

-OOC-
Mekantans are masters of Transpacial Physics. Given enough information, they can achieve a mastery of Shivan subspace exceeding that of the Shivans themselves.

ooc: Yeah, and Mekantans are also left-wing liberal commies who love the ancient earth president Clinton...

and, Menkanta, I am not insulting you, just joking a little... That's what my grandmother would say...

-OOC-

Actually, IC, Mekantans hate all humans. They're the most racist sons of bitches you'll ever meet.

They just especially hate Republicans and Conservatives. They go into the "Bad Place". The place with all the "phallic" tentacles tipped with drills. Yes... the "Bad Place"...

Come to think of it...Will the subspace shields be exactly viable? I mean, now that Subspace doesn't exactly exist any more...

OOC: In all fact subspace still exists, the dimmension is there and therfore subspace shields are stilla viable option however. Subspace shields ar enow only a viable option for me. As say Ekardia uses them, well he will have as Subspace shields are omni-directional a swarm of nanites come out and kill him. SO itd be best if only i use them.

Subspace is no longer filled with random matter. It is now filled with trillions upon trillion sof Nanites.

I am wondering if my Posi-Grav ships count as weapons for the shielding if they have to ram the Shiven vessels. My Grav Torpedos might work too if they were aimed correctly. I have not involved myself into this frey, that is until the Shivens come knocking at my door. In Character, I don't really know anything about them.

I believe my new phase-shields may allow me to traverse through Subspace, giving me a distinct advantage over the Shivans...

Okay... as for new weapons, how about a quantumn flux cannon?
