NationStates Jolt Archive

Since Long before the Dawn of the 20th century, we have been watching them, The Beings of Earth. Wasting their precious Resources, Exterminating each other and the lower life forms the call animals. We have watched them build great machines of War, and build Bombs that shake the very Pillars of Heaven.

We want it, for ours has long since disappeared, and now barely survive on what we can scientificly recreate. They have proven themselves incapable of handling their resources. Now, we will take it from them, and use it ourselves. Thus do we, the citizens of the rest of the universe, do declare War on the Earth.

Are we really alone in the universe. Ever since The advent of Radio technology, we have been recieving Static from the rest of Creation. However there are times when we catch something that might be a signal, but often times, turns out to be more static. Perhaps someday, when our technology improves, we will once and for all find out the truth, and if we do have neighbors, let us pray, that they are friendly.

OOC: Pretty self explainitory, I hope. In honer of The Re-release of War of The Worlds, I have spun this purty little thread up, about a War, between the denizens of Future Tech, going against the Denizens of Modern Tech. Its been a concept surely everyone has thought about doing at one point or another, well, now its time has come.

Don't tell me it can't be done, no Sheild of FT is so perfect that a hail of bullets couldn't eventually knock it down. If there were, I do believe they would be labled as Godmods.

You may be either FT, or MT, but not both. You may be your own nation, or you can take one of the sides from the movie. Personally, I'm going to take the Classic aliens from the original movie, not wnating to get my own real nation involved.

OOC: Well, I'll have to take your place for the slivers then. Oh, and I'll be helping the humans against the aliens here, so I guess you'll want my newer weapons developments, won't you?

Bump.

I think this sounds very interesting, but, would we doing this outside of the context of our own nations in a separate RP universe?

I. persoanly, could only participate if it was in a diffrent universe...

--edit--

I noticed the answer in your post, so, never mind, Yes, I’d be willing to enter this RP on the modern tech side….it’ll be fun to RP a losing war.

OOC: Might I join? I'm an FT race of sentient bipedal rhinos with Jamaican/English accents.

OOC: Long as no one else has a problem, wicked good Rhino land.

OOC: May I join? WE are a mix of bipedal sentient races (lower army holds modern tech, such as blades and axes, and the upper army hold future tech like laser gun, and starships.

OOC: Sure, but only on one side.

lol, no one else wants to be MT, thats fine with me ;)

lol, no one else wants to be MT, thats fine with me ;)
MINI Mehm's on your side.

lol, I wasn't complaining.

I didnt even see his/her post.

As long as it's in an alternate Universe. I'll RP my MT nation in this. It will give me a chance to RP my newly organised army. And other branches as I organise them.

Of course, this will not affect my general NS RPing, if that's ok.

So, I never read the book, nor saw the movie. I take it aliens are invading, and my nation gets to react to this and defend itself, ultimatly being destroyed?

Yes, this is in some other universe. And no, The aleins die, from catching a cold.

I ahve been waiting for this day ever since I joined NationStates. I'm going to kick. Earth's. Ass.

Yes, this is in some other universe. And no, The aleins die, from catching a cold.

Ah, but my panic-ridden government gets to nuke things, right? Or at least try.

I can't wait to kill chavs. Oh yes. It's going to be positively orgasmic!

Well, if you really want to help us win that badly, I suppose, otherwise your just killing off innocent Earthlings, until of course, the sheilds fail.

Well, if you really want to help us win that badly, I suppose, otherwise your just killing off innocent Earthlings, until of course, the sheilds fail.

I don’t know...

Like you said, no FT shield can be so strong it wont buckle under enough impart. A high yield nuclear weapon should provide sufficient impact

Just a question. How will this RP work, exactly?
Will it be 1 on 1 between a specific FT nation and an MT nation? Or will it be the FT group invading together the MT group as a whole? Or what?

Well, if you really want to help us win that badly, I suppose, otherwise your just killing off innocent Earthlings, until of course, the sheilds fail.
Chavs.......................innocent? HAHAHAHAHAHAH!

I don’t know...

I work on a high efficiency, low yeild tactical nuclear docterine. Anything my government throws at the aliens, is gonna be around 5-10kt, super efficient, probably artillery fired, and designed to leave as little fallout or radioactivity as possible in the target area in the shortest ammount of time.
Basicly, if I hit an area with a 10kt weapon, the area should be safe within a day or two.
But I do have a few bigger weapons. Not a fan of dirty bombs though.

I didn't say it wouldn't buckle, I'm just saying it would probably take more than one, and then that's just one ship. This isn't like ID4 where the Sheilds were supported by the Mothership. That's why I'm saying Nukes aren't advisable.

I at least, am going to be wondering all over the place, in and out of cities.

Heh I'll RP as a MT nation.
I don’t know...

Like you said, no FT shield can be so strong it wont buckle under enough impart. A high yield nuclear weapon should provide sufficient impact
Of course a nuclear weapon might also wipe out the people near the shield. And it's not like any FT ship will stay in an empty place long enough to get hit by any kind of nuclear weapon.

Just a question. How will this RP work, exactly?
Will it be 1 on 1 between a specific FT nation and an MT nation? Or will it be the FT group invading together the MT group as a whole? Or what?

All VS. All, so, both factions had best learn to get together with its own members.

Ah, this will be fun. Going to have to think carefully about what I do, who I shoot, where I deploy. And all that stuff. Excellent.

I'm only leaving this open for 24 hours, then I close it, and the FUN begins

Nifty.

Actually, about a month ago, I developed an ammunition type for almost exactly this situation - or, rather, to give MT slug-throwers and the ilk the ability to better compete with FT weaponry.

Twas thinking it might give the MTers a bit of an edge; maybe RP as a small FT corperate expiditionary force? Sell arms to the panicked primitives - maybe do a little mercenary work but otherwise just protect outgoing arms shipments and my supply bases....


Practical Anti-Matter Based Ammunition for Existing Weapons:

Purpose:
Drasticly increase the lethality of most infantry-scale slugthrower weaponry for signifigantly less than the cost of replacing said arms with more traditionally potent weaponry, via the design of reliable and affordible ammunition types readily adaptible to a varriety of firearms, including gauss and chemical.

Concept:
The containment of an anti-proton reaction mass in a rugged SAPL cell constructed without the use of protons, in turn surrounded by a high-density proton shell to maximise actual immediate reaction upon detonation. SAPL containment cell must be able to survive zero-proximity to a 1 kiloton detonation without failure to insure safty from accidental breach or sympithetic detonation during handling and combat operations. Detonation will be achived by the induction of SAPL decay by an armoured low-end micro-computer, sensing firing, impact and/or proximity, with an optional inertial-guidance limiter to prevent detonation prior to reaching minimum safe distance from the firing weapon.

Compatibility:
MACS(Micro Anti-matter Containment/SAPL, pronounced 'max') rounds are electromagneticly sheilded with a warhead size expected to average 1-2.5mm; as such, they can be readily intigrated into munitions for virtually any slugthrower designed to fire rounds of equal or larger size.

Yeilds:
Theoretically, payloads upwards of 1 micro-gram can be readily and cheaply employed, generating an ideal yeild upwards of 45 tons/TNT equivilent. Practicly, however, this far in excess of anything the average soldier can safly and practically utalise.

Realising that, planed yeilds are as follows, and given in aproximate TNT equivilence of the actual yeild(TNTe):

-50 g/TNTe
-250 g/TNTe
-1 kg/TNTe
-2.5 kg/TNTe
-10 kg/TNTe
-25 kg/TNTe
-50 kg/TNTe
-100 kg/TNTe
-250 kg/TNTe
-500 kg/TNTe
-1000 kg/TNTe

Higher, lower, or otherwise customised yeilds will likly be avalible upon request.

Pricing:
Finalised pricing scheme; NRdC = Normal Round Cost(ie a $2.00 USD .50cal BMG round with an M3 MACS warhead would cost $7.00 USD)


M1: 50gr/TNTe MACS == $0.25 USD + NRdC
M2: 250gr/TNTe MACS == $1.25 USD + NRdC
M3: 1kg/TNTe MACS == $5.00 USD + NRdC
M4: 2.5kg/TNTe MACS == $12.50 USD + NRdC
M5: 10kg/TNTe MACS == $50.00 USD + NRdC
M6: 25kg/TNTe MACS == $125.00 USD + NRdC
M7: 50kg/TNTe MACS == $250.00 USD + NRdC
M8: 100kg/TNTe MACS == $500.00 USD + NRdC
M9: 250kg/TNTe MACS == $1'250.00 USD + NRdC
M10: 500kg/TNTe MACS == $2'500.00 USD + NRdC
M11: 1000kg/TNTe MACS == $5'000.00 USD + NRdC

I'll list you as MT...

Nah, the MT guys are supposed to lose for a while until we all die for some reason.

Nah, the MT guys are supposed to lose for a while until we all die for some reason.

Well, I'm obviously not going to sell enough big guns to the natives to give them parity; allow them to stiffen their resistance, maybe - prehaps even develop a localised superiority if they concentrate - but not enough to stand against the Invading Alien Hordes.

Afterall, even if they're suposed to loose, it's no fun if their conventional forces are steamrolled.

And you can always send a few forces after me to stem the avalibility of things like MACS rounds, fission-pumped recoilless anti-tank rifles, and Nuclear-force Enhanced Silver shell-armour(all of which, save maybe the lower Marks of MACS, will be in fairly short supply - and cost a rather pretty penny; supply and demand, afterall :D ).

Heh I'll RP as a MT nation.

Of course a nuclear weapon might also wipe out the people near the shield. And it's not like any FT ship will stay in an empty place long enough to get hit by any kind of nuclear weapon.

but, of course, we're not talking about Naval vessels, we're talking bout ground units

I see, Transnapastain uses pure fusion devices anyway, so fallout is no problem at all

Just a Question, my tech is based off ID4, is it ok if my nation joins? Cause if not I won't, but I would love to play this.

Welcome aboard Liacia.

Thankies!

I've been wantin to stomp som MT nations for some time now and finaly I can with no problems!
Sign me up!

Bump!

Sign me up!
accepted.

People, this sign up closes tonight!

I've been thinking of putting my notes on a PMT Nigeria into use for an II nation for a while so, a couple questions:

Is it OK to put in a postmodern/nearfuture/whateverthetermis defender? What I'd like to do would be play against someone who's read Wells; the overall theme would be similar to the book with a largish part of Nigeria being overrun before the invaders succumb to disease or whatever. Anyone up for that sort of thing? I promise vicious resistance in the urban canyons of industrialized zones, the occasional suicide nuke, rivers of lunch... er, refugees, and perhaps desperate defenders taking some poor Martian blob apart with knives and forks a la Hyde in Moore's _League of Extraordinary Gentlemen_. ;-)

If you don't feel like you're already swamped with Invaders, I was wondering if I could jump in. Not only do I have plenty of IC reason to hate Sol (though I doubt this will be "cannon"), my tendency to disappear fits well into the tendency of earth-Invaders to die for no good reason.

Nigeria, its all FT vs all MT players. And yes, you can be MT.

Skeelzania, we need invaders. both are accepted.

Excellent. Will give me a chance to use some of my nifty new (and not-so-new) toys without actually having the threat of losing them.

EDIT: I will be RPing as Skeelzania proper of course, in all our Teutonic Nazis-in-space Keebler/Fremden/Solar-hating glory.

I'll join up too.

FT I be :)

the tokera would like to be a earth defender and play as the United States.

*savors doing a drop-operation on his hometown*

question, im FT but it's not really in the vein of my Nation to invade a Planet for no reason, is it cool if i help defend the MT, as you can see my nation is small and technologically crap, if not then i'll just RP an excuse for my nation joining.

Having just watched the movie, I have come to the conclusion that the key to a MT military-victory is to issue every civilian two high-explosive grenades.

...

That is all.

You have been signed up as defending MT, as MT.

Question:

Can I be say, the Mongolian Horde who somehow got teleported through Space and Time to South America? Just to spice things up a bit.

I'd like to join representing the Nationalist Republic.. Future Tech, of course. If I may. I do hope your accepting late joins. Thank you.

You have been signed up as defending MT, as MT.

as MT, no thanks i'll just be on the invaders side like everyone else :)

OOC: I'll join on the modern tech side.

A few questions:

Can I use my current nation (including its characters and weapons)?

Will this RP affect my nation?

I belive the answers to those are "Yes" and "Not if you don't want it to", respectivly.

OOC: In that case count me in on the modern tech side.

I would like to take part in this. I think it would be a bit of fun. If I beat the 10 deadline. Either FT or Modern would be ok, prefering where needed more. I am more interested in ploting with and against.

Alright, all accepted. Exactly one hour left for sign up.

Am I an invader? I thought when I said "I use ID4 tech" That it ment I was an Invader...whats up? :P

So very terrified.

*idly toys with the idea of selling the invaders a broad-spectrum innoculation against terran microbes.... that proceeds to turn them into busty, inept, air-headed foxgirls... on contract from the MT nations.*

Yeah, that's something Uniphase Armouries Interversal would do....

I'm in. FT side. I'll be playing as myself, but not as myself if you get what I mean. (Play with my nation and technology, but one of it ever hapens to my real nations)

Oh, and there are a few points i'd like to make:

Obital bombardment is out. We want the rescources, we don't want a radioactive bll of dirt.

And if a technology advances past something, they usualy lack in defense against that something. If a FT nation uses lasers, than it's silds would be best at stoping lasers. Do current soldiers wear armor that could stop a medieval sword? Nope. And think of the Replicators of Stargate: SG-1. They are immune to the 'advanced' energy weapons, infact, it helps them, but they are a lot more modern to the 'primitive' kinetic weapons of Earth.

Hah! The Skeelzanians are descended from Terrans, and hopefully have enough of an immune system to make your puny microbes inconsequential! Chances are I'll have to bail due to "strategic concerns," such as a Menelmacarii strike into the core systems. Tom Cruise will be powerless to stop me!

Some points to ponder.

A) Sign up is no offically closed.

B) Just because the police don't where the armor don't mean it doesn't exist. We have weapons with greater speed and weaponry today than swords.

C) having observed enough Star trek and Star wars T.V. and Movies to offically quailify me as a Nerd, yes, a sheild will stob a bullet. Personally, I don't understand a thing about engineering or technology or all that. I can't explain my tech, I just know its resonible enough to work, and generally, I talk it over with a few otherNations I know I can trust.

D) As I said in an earlier post, I'm using the Original aleins from, I think it was the !960's, anyways, I'm using the ones from the first version of the movie. I know they Die eventually from the flu, but until then, are practically invincible, not even nukes worked against them and their sheilds. They had two diffrent Beam weapons, one to make people disappear, and one to blow things up.

E) I'm going to die eventually from the flu, everyone else is up to them.

D) I am honered to have such a legendary RP'er as Automagfreek gracing my thread with his presence. I shall try not to disappoint.

F) Even though I already stated that the first version had impervious Martians, except for the flu, I won't be so goddmodish. Terribly hard to kill? yes. Impossible? No. I expect all other "Invaders" to be similar, if not easier to kill.

G) All invaders can come in at their own Leisure, but no second fleets or the like. One chance, your gone? your defeated.

H) Should we start in this thread. or shall I make on just for Rp'ing, and keep this as the OOC coments thread. I like the second option myself.

Well, I say we keep this as an OOC thread no matter what we decide on. As for actual RP, theres a few options.

One is for everything to be on one giant mondo thread, which will get impossibly confusing by page 2. Another is to have everyone pair up with opponents, and go off and start their own threads. We can then link them back here. Yet another is to follow the [Earth] approach; that is attach a tag to their threads. Example:

[WotW]Skeelzania invades North America!

We should have a disclaimer in the first post saying this is uncanon, and is closed to those who didn't sign up. We should still try and coordinate who attacks who in this thread though.

I also suggest that Invader nations pick their targets, announce them here, coordinate with any relative MT nations, and then start the thread. We are, after all, attacking.

We do that I get Automagfreek.

My current plan is thus:

Skeelzanian Fleet arrives in Sol, and enters close earth orbit.

A short bombardment of the Western Hemisphere follows, as well as missile strikes on Europe and Asia.

Skeelzanian ground troops will land in North America and fight whoever wants to fight.

I thought the first page was the match up? Hmmm.

Is this all one world? or several different ones? The Earth quote got me thinking on the wrong tangent.

Well whatever the decision, I will let the people that are most familiar take the lead and will work my plan against whoever is available regardless the location.

As I have no plans on taking over the world so much as profiteering from it, bleeding it dry, then leaving the MT enemy to clean up.
(Last Correction, I promise)

I thought the first page was the match up? Hmmm.

I would very much like to take on South America and Antartica.
(Corrected)

I think the list on the First Page simply shows whose on whose side.

OOC: why the first movie? There are no tripods, heat rays, or black smoke.

And he won the door prize! Tell him what he's won rod.

"Will Bob, He's one an entire NS point good forr absolutly nothing, because, like this post, they don't mean a thing, yep, their just like America's foreign policy advisors, they don't mean a thing."

Because, I grew up on the first one, was originally terrified by it, later enthralled by it, and now, will lay it to rest with respect and honor by RP'ing it here on Jolt. I have memories with that movie, fond memories. Ahh, the days of yester year.


When I originally saw the first one, I couldn't even watch it all the way through, I was that scared.

OOC: Why not base it on the book? It is far more varied.

OOC: I was wondering if I could join in on this one, also seperate from my normal universe of play. Future tech, but with limited units. (Say a army or so)

There really weren't any movies that scared me much. With the exception of Worm. Something really bothered me about wild animals on the loose eating people slowly.

Ah well. So is this all going to happen on one planet? Or is this going to be seperated so that the FT and MT can't combine forces. It's something I would like to plan for ahead.

Thanks very much, I will probably have other questions but less overreaching and this. And probably to the person I face soley.

The Thread(s) will cover a multi-national Alien invasion of Earth, and will not involve other planets that I know of. As to combining forces, well, I imagine some of the Invaders will be scheming against each other, and the Earth Defenders will probably to have combine in order to slow our onslaught. Hell, maybe they can even surrender to one of us and become a puppet nation. But I don't know if any of the Invader nations will be working together as a cohesive front. I certainly won't.

OOC: Could I be an invader based on the book?

Me? Allied with anyone else? PLEASE! I think we could do it in an offiste forum, Invision free or something would work well. I know I will need to find someone bigger then me, so I can kick there arse by crushing major cities. Remember the hammer in ID4? Oh they where sexc.

Tanthan, Zatarack, regretfully, no. Your too late, that's the main purpose of a deadline. Strangely enough, I have it all balanced perfectly. Maybe if someone likes this enough, they'll make another one in the future, like the world cup and cherry cup threads, or Paradise club. Heck, Paradise club was considered spam after awhile. I will officially relinquish ownership of the concept after this is all done, so, if others like it, wanna try variations on it, go ahead. In the future, I'll make one involving Magitech vs. Science tech (FT PMT/NFT and MT combined.) Scinse I know Magitech will totally kick Science Tech's bootious Maximus, I'm not afraid.

Jolt will work perfectly well. Everyone else can see it, and maybe get their own ideas for mixed tech RP's.

I specifically stated you were too late too join. Maybe next time.

Oh I'm sorry, I went to get food while nationstate's incredible laggyness took forever to load the page. Didn't get to see it until it was too late. I'm sorry about it.

That's alright, I'm sure someone will do this again.

So very terrified.


OOC: You will be. You will be.

Warhaven:

Now that this is closed, I’d add that to the very 1st post, and would soon begin a new thread, showing who’s on what side, so we can all get this set up right in our minds

Of course, I'm sure this is already what you planed to do :)

Welcome to the RP AMF, it looks like we’ll finally be doing an RP together.

This should be very interesting indeed

Well damnit. Of all the players I fear AMF has to join... Ah I'm just kidding, not about fearing AMF thats for damn sure, glad to have the honor to RP with one of my NS idols.

I already have that list on the first page on the intro post. I have been carefully maintaining it.

And for the thread, here it is. Feel free to use Marsa Yu and Marsall Hancock yourselfs, Since they are of course, MT people.

Tanthan, Zatarack, regretfully, no. Your too late, that's the main purpose of a deadline. Strangely enough, I have it all balanced perfectly.

And the deadline is...

well, it was last night at 8:00 P.M. my time, in Colorado, however I was off at the time, and posted at about 8;30. you two posted AFTER I posted that sign up was closed.

All, I will be gone most of today and tomorrow, so, play at your leisure, just don't finish it before I can get in on it, though since it is July 3rd and 4th that'll begone, I'm sure the other American players will understand.

Well, as the first MT nation to be posting, I hope I get to see the others in soon.
I'm assuming that one of the objects is crashing, or landing, or whatever, in the western area of Egypt.

Well that was my second choice for a landing zone...

Not sure who will be at who's throat. So I am holding off on landing till that was settled.

i think you just RP and see where it goes from there, I myself have landed in Asia as it is the terrain that suits my race the best

The first thing that has to be done is for the MT nations to post with their geographic locations, or, for non-real land-masses, maps or something of the ilk.

Afterall, the invaders can't start landing without knowing what targets are avalible, and the MT nations are just a collection of semi-random MT nations(or MT versions of FT nations, etc); they are not the entirity of RL Earth.

So if you decide to invade X, and no one plans on RPing that part of the world..

The second thing to do would be for the attackers to then choose targets/landing sites from the avalible defenders(potentially ignoring national boarders).

Then, IMO, they should start a seperate thread for each attack, or other signifigant action(IC conferences, arms deals, etc), in which the apropriate nations can post. Said threads should be marked [WotW - Closed] + a title.

Incase you're wondering, my territory.

You leftn out the / in the closing URL tag, causing the board to merge it with the next and spawn a false Fraken-Link.

I belive we've already established that; you wanted to RP as the US, correct?

Here is the link to the main thread, incase you've missed it.

For refrence, I intended that boy to just dissapear. You're welecome to RP his death if you like, lol. Warhaven, I don't know your plans, but that fomke area I put in, will be a couple of campers, feel free to have killed them, just to add to the shock. In fact, feel free to kill off the unit. The MIV-14 is basicly a BMP-2, and there are about 18 of them in the unit, full of troops. They're my "reserves", I use them as police actually.

yes i would like to play the us

Well for heavens sakes, post already. Here's the thread:

I just did

I'd be willing to play some isolated tinpot dictator of an island, like say.. the Falklands.

I'm looking for something smaller-scale, if nobody minds.

I'm gonna raise hell soon enough, with grafted weaopons and armor on my biologically freakish hordes, and I'm a defender, go figure.

my only question is -

where will you be defending? ;)

Probably the Alps and Urals, various mountain chains in africa and asia, anywhere you can hide a swarm of bugs in tunnels.

Urals.... just great :P

Looks like our forces will cross paths... thats if you want em to :p

A swarm of bugs vs Aerial Battleships, Tactical Armors and whatever I can use without contaminating the atmosphere with radiation :)

Should be an interesting set of skirmishes :)

Hmm, but can your battleships beat X? and X's 105mm cannon that hires HE bolter shells(single shot, like a tank in the air), along with X's various other guns of large caliber?

XPF-22 Main Aerospace Battleship (MAB)
This is the most provident of PoL airborne weaponry, while not comparable to the space bound warships of PoL, the XPF-22 is the only one that can enter the atmosphere due to its lower tonnage and aero-dynamic design.
Armoured and armed to the teeth this vessel is the Carrier / Battleship of the PoL suface forces.
Weapons:
Gatling Beam Anti Missile System (GBAMS) x 20 (10 top, 10 bottom)
'Kijin' Beam turret x2 (top mounted)
Sledgehammer Long Range Missile launchers (LRML) x8 (mounted along the sides - 4 per side)
Linear Catapults (For the planes) x3 (Just below the bridge)
220mm Triple linked Artillery Turret x4 (top mounted)
'Annihilator' Railgun Cannon (Bow Gun) x1

Fortunately most of that weaponry is mounted topside of the vessel, so attacking from the air is pretty foolish, only the GBAMS and Sledgehammers can hit targets in close proximity which are on the ground.
However it doesnt mean its entirely defenceless; it does have planes loaded onto it, so I suppose those could attack ground targets instead.... :)
So attacking it from the ground would be best.
Though to say it nearly weighs in at 730 tons, its going to have weaponry and armour - no shields though :P
