Leafanistan Unveils New Technology

Leafanistan

OOC: CIN, MAP, AMN, and SWC nations have all been sent plans and those who are Red Alert 2 fans, SCREAM WITH JOY.

High Father stood on a balcony above a large outdoor pavillion. Trumpets played, APCs rolled passed as soldiers stood in it, proudly saluting High Father, High Father waved back down. Soon the precession ended and the auidiance and the press focused on him. The screen behind him shifted from the military parade below to a giant Hammer and Sickle. High Father then spoke.

"Comrades, the Glorious Republic of Leafanistan, today unveils new technology to help advance our defense of the Glorious Republic and our allies. This technology will be shared with the Commonwealth of Independent Nations and the Mutual Aid Pact. We are also sending plans to the Alliance of Marxist Nations, and to our allies in the Saharistan War Coalition. Today, we, the people, the workers, the peasents, and the scientists, the fruits of their labor shall be revealed. Today, we bring you the Desolator and the Tesla Trooper."

He walked off the elevated stage to applause and camera flashes. Soon the attention was turned toward a large stage below the elevated one. A giant Hammer and Sickle, turned and revealed two men standing, both with similar armour. However one was crackling with electricity, while the other hummed, they both however, produced ionization. Dr. Nikolai Tesla took the stage now, the Jumbo Screens now were focused on him.

"The Tesla Trooper is the culmination of my work in Electricity and Armour. Many years ago, in the colony of Harvest, we noticed our enhancements didn't work so well on them. They became dark after birth, not as tall, but strong, and resistant to disease. With the help of Dr. Mobius we have realized what has happened. An amino acid, not native to this world, nor many others in our great republic reacts with some of the new horomones created by our enhancements. Melanin production increases rapidly, bones calcify at a much higher rate, eyes turned an odd yellow, bones and muscle density increased, immune system activity quadrupled, and DNA repair mechanisms increased rapidly. We believe this DNA repair to be the reasons for why they aren't so tall. But the side effects leave Harvest Soldiers extremely hardy. Which is why this technology is fitted especially for them."

"The suit itself will increase the soldiers height to around 2m and it has a positron laser. The laser directs fire, and then a 300 - 400 V at 30 A bolt will erupt out of the glove. It will seek the positive charge and equalize it. The shock will fry the opposing soldier, damage electronics, even shatter bricks. The suit itself is amoured with boranated titanium fibers throughout a plastic layer, followed by a thin ceremic layer, and then finally a NeoKevlar layer. All with a climate controlled biosuit underneath this, and a modified battle armour system so the soldier can run as usual underneath the heavy suit. It can resist up to 17mm fire, and can absorb a 20mm, even a 25mm Cannon round. Though with such large rounds, severe bruises occur, sometimes burns. Anything below 12.7mm will be a non-fatal shot, bouncing or flattening around it. The solder can be pushed back sure, but the soldier can still fight."

"The Desolator is the culmination with my work with Dr. Mobius, using a nuclear battery with a 1.2 million year half life, it released a focused beam of Gamma Rays, enough to cause severe burns, pass through several people, and fry tissue. It even passes through non-Nuclear protected armour and can kill tank crews before they can respond."

"Both of these units with their advanced armour, strong soldiers, and equally powerful weapons systems, can make base guarding, close quarters combat, and urban warfare. It will be a powerful tool, especially in todays modern battlefield with elaborate "mobile suits" and people hiding behind doors and body armour."

Dr. Tesla then shook hands with a beaming Dr. Mobius and took their seats. The trumpets played again, as a large group of Tesla Troopers and Desolators suddenly appeared and marched and demonstrated their abilities.

Plans had been secretely sent to the CIN, MAP, SWC, and AMN.

ooc: FT?

OOC: Nikola Tesla wouldn't do something like this; he'd make a deathray that can fry stuff half the world away, and a perfect shield against it, then distribute them to everyone while being ripped off financially.

ooc: FT?

OOC: If what the real Tesla said in the past was true, then this is MT. If not, its still compelling this is PMT.

OOC: This is Nikolai Tesla, in NS Nikola Tesla was never born, but Nikolai Tesla was in Leafanistan. Come on with everyone running around with uber-battle armour and super tanks, I felt I'd even the field by given literally dozens of nations this technology.

I'd expect more of RA1; like a certain irrepressable bald man taking over :D

That's why I was thinking FT, as 'uber' battle armour and super tanks tend to be a FT domain. Modern tech can be taken down by modern weapons. A suit that can 'ignore' a 12.7mm round isn't really a modern tech anymore. Same with nuclear powered suits, and gene-moded people.

OOC: I've seen armour that can shrug off a 12.7mm being passed as MT, only it was ungodly heavy, but gene-modding is now in the realm of possible. MT continues to become more and more PMT. Personally this was an excuse to use Tesla Troopers in combat.

The guy was Kane from the earlier C&C

On another note: FOR THE MOTHERLAND!

(OOC: RA2!! Weeee!!!!! Lol, bring on the Hell March, Mechanical man, Apocylpse tanks, and Grand Cannons!

Oh just had a thought, you're not going to have Tesla troopers charging up Tesla Coils are you?)

Another day, another day... And I did flood the international market with this stuff, it is now freely available to the CIN, MAP, AMN, and SWC nations.

Believe me; I am a wanton and devoted disciple of CnC, spare me the Generals rubbish and filth!

I know very well who Kane is.

EA is the devil, anywho, this was just my excuse to use Desolators and Tesla Troopers.

(OOC: imo, Gens wasn't that bad a game...by itself... It just had NOTHING to do with the original CnC story line. Oh well, I'm sure if EA had slapped the CnC name on it, it most likely wouldn't have sold as well as it did. Anyway, enough digressing for me.)

You use a Desolator and the ground will never heal properly for thousands of years....Tesla Troops are ok! Giant caps....giant batteries....ooooh! I can barely stand it. If you made it hum like one of those bug zappers it would be a psychological weapon to!

----EXAMPLE!----

bzzzz..zzzzz

"Hey Marco, what was that?"

bzzzzzzzbzzzzzzbzzzzz

"Hush! I hear buzzing..."

bbzzzz ZPPPPAZZPZPPZZ! 'AHHHOMGOMGOMGOGMGOMGAHHHH!"

"MARCO! NOOOOOOOOOO!"

Bbzzzz ZPZAAPZZZZZZ pffffff

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Physics of ballistics aside (you can't just say "this armor is proof against bullets up to this size", since that doesn't take the energy of the bullet into account - a 5.56 NATO round fires a smaller bullet than a 9mm, but it's a more damaging round because of the speed of the bullet), anything where you start being immune to modern weapons really puts you outside of MT - I'm not talking complete immunity,i.e.: I'm sure a MT soldier could nail one of these guys with an RPG, but a guy with a regular MT firearm couldn't.

MT is "superior" to pre-modern tech - that is, 1000 modern soldiers with modern equipment could cut down 1000 civil war era soldiers with impunity. Likewise FT is superior to MT. It's really difficult to mix them without things turning into a futile bloodbath on the part of the lower tech people. This seems to be one of the main reasons why people don't normally mix tech. Your genetically modified tesla soldiers really have the same relationship to "regular" MT, which is why I'd be pretty hesitant to consider them any flavor of MT...

Yeah, I had the same thoughts about that... I had the hardest time grasping that until I was about 7 or 10...

I'm saying that the armour can absorb just one hit with a round that big, eventually enough shots will compromise the titanium plate. Besides in a propaganda speech you accetuate the positives, not the negatives.
