Tanthan Upgrades Ships

--Battle Report--
In recent history Tanthan has been experimenting with unified shield systems and physical shields on all ships. A full test was conducted recently the proved of a unified field is capable of deflecting EVERY attack known to Tanthan. Making certain ships invinicible and invunerable to attacks, test fleets have been ordered.
An example was done on March 4th 4058.
One "Titan" Class Capital Ship
Five "Orb" Ships
Three "Lancer" Assault Class ships
The Titan was pitted against the superior Lancers set in a 2-D field.
The orb ships drew a pentagram around the center of the capital ship with a field of energy as the battle began. A green light bathed the ship and the field in a powerful surge of energy.
The assault ships began unloading every weapon they had, torpedos, lasers, black hole generators, glyphic attacks and combined laser strikes.
Torpedos were instantly destroyed as it hit the blue light, the explosion was inverted and was harmless.
Laser fire was deflected easily and was not able to damage anything, even the most powerful blasts were deflected with minimal stress on the defenders.
The black hole generator device activated and began to warp space and time, but the field was too powerful and released huge amounts of gamma rays as the shield faltered, and it destroyed the black hole with a small explosion. Shields were down for .3 secs.
Glyphic attacks (top secret), had no effect.
Combined laser strikes, estimated power of the Death Star blasts were inverted after a shield distortion and destroyed all three assault ships.
A shot was never fired by the Capital Ship or the "Orbs", yet the destruction was so evident that this new shield will push the power of Tanthan to a new level.
These shields are only the beginning of a new slew of weaponry, armour, items and technology for Tanthan as it enters the second half of a the 41st century!

This is godmodding in many ways. You cannot have a ubershield that will stop what everone has. Even if you did the power requirments would require a massive reactor. If you go through with this, you may be ignored my many.

OOC: On FJ instead of Tanthan x-x! Tanthan is my FT nation.
The "Lancer" is a basic Star Destroyer with a massive frontal cannon and is a total attack vessel, shaped like a spear it drives through enemy armada's suicidally shooting massive powerful blasts from its front and much weaker from the sides all times. (A basic mass spam quick strike unit, kinda unique here on Nationstates, think of it a berserker that uses sheer power to make up for its horrible defense) It's the arsenal weapon of Tanthan, a Medium Heavy ship.
The shield is a scaled up version of the old shield I worked with. The old shield model was a physical/energy shield that acted like a bubble and deflected many physical objects and refracted lasers back at the enemy (in the process asborbing heat). When the shield became too hot the inside ship would either drop the shield or be burned up inside by intense heat. Following Gay-Lussac and Boyle's law each had a critical limit which was rather easy to find out and destroy ships.
This new model is a projection of the shield and is a leyline to the 5 other ships. The "Orbs" are really just ships with massive power and no weaponry. They link their power together to boost the shields of the ship over 50x higher then normal, making them practically invincible to any weapon. Destroy the orbs and you destroy the shield bonus. Then destroy the capital ship last.
This whole thing means you have SPECIFIC targets to take out if you want to kill my heroic units or special forces and makes them nearly immune to the super-weapons a few people I know possess....Kyanges has one.
Any more questions?

(OOC: I'm confused. Does this mean that you see me as somewhat of a threat? I'm sure everyone here can vouch for me that I'm pretty benevolent, and hardly ever get into any sort of fights. The only threads I've really been active in (If you could call one post active....) have been diplomacy threads. I'd be glad to be Tanthan's ally. (Officially.))

It'd take extra energy to do that and would be very messed up. It carries a charge and won't allow things to pass. Its not as advanced as the type I want....though this should do.
(Original specs called for a large viscious bubble-shield which would spin around the ship and deflect everything and non-explosive weapons would shoot through and be shot away again as it spins. Though this is too much and that's why I reduced the strength and advantages.)
Kyanges don't act like Ghandi mixed with some sleazy policital lawyer...your message is already giving a superior tone. If I wanted to destroy your nation I could fairly easily. That's why you avoid IC relationships with my nation and its people.

Why go through that trouble, if you keep combat at a good distance (fighters) against a superior ship with superweapon and they try to fire, you will be observing enemy stats, and you can adjust your position. Or you can keep the battle in close, and prevent the enemy from using the weapon. I know I don't need a big gun to knock out those 'orbs' i just need to subspace jump a corvette or fighter behind the shield and shoot at them from the inside, or just drop a nuke or pulsar bomb in the shield and detonate it.

The Workers State stands by the Eshirian Soverignity and the Setian-Sebeceans. Our comrades-in-arms will not be the subject of imperialist oppression.
OOC: Well, I do see the flaws in this. One, the arrangement would require a lot of expense to support; this combined shield system would need a high ratio of "orbs" to "titans" in your fleet to make the fleet fight effectively.
And the refractive capacity I have little doubt (though how it will be RPed properly is going to be a huge challenge), but, as Setian said, its gonna eat up lots of power. Lots. Even with the combined energies of the support and main ships in this network, it would still need some pretty powerful reactors to work well. You sure you can afford this?

ooc: mmk, there are some apparent problems with this technology. (correct me if I'm wrong)
First, you have to tune your shield to "refract" lasers. If you don't tune it to the specific frequency of enemy lasers, it'll just be a regular energy shield, either bouncing it who knows where or absorbing it.
Also it won't be long before people start nova-bombing those shield arrays, which would be incredibly expensive.
It's an interesting concept, but you'll want to put at least minimal PDGs and shields on the shieldships, unless they are at the center of the bubble shield. It looks incredibly expensive to build these things.
IC: The nation of No Endorse stands firmly with its longtime ally, the Eshirian Soverignty. The Galactic Inferno is willing to throw its entire military might behind the soverignty, every man, woman, and child willing to die for the cause.

i seriously doubt that it can stop any weapon that involves spatial warping or anything such as that. Therefore, i seriously recommend that you refrain from using those as your only shield.
About reflecting enemy lasers, it would reflect the most commonly used wavelengths, because it is a lot easier to manufacture lasers and blasters with a standard wavelength than it is to make your own with seperate wavelengths
Also, watch word usage, i'm pretty sure that refraction is breaking up a beam of light, not reflecting it back

Umm HAHAHAHA! I was FT before you joined and stayed in MT with the divison until I finished it up and flattened out my tree. You have nothing on me, frankly your working your way INTO my tech level. Remember all the work I did, ships, and refrences. I had to make this nation just so I could PLAY with some other people because no one liked Crest of the Stars or FMA. My tech is superior to SW. Now unless you plan to Zerg every one of my ships I doubt I am weak.

Ah oops I put refract....yes I meant reflect. Its physical and energy, it can have varying and adapt. Though lets not go all Star Trek on a 1800 years of higher technology.
Kyanges would have a closer look at what it is, and New Dorn. have an even closer, but its not my only shield or weaponry. I need to balance it. Now if they remember correctly I have over 1000 divisons of military power for my Tanthan nation and 98 for Kjata Major. Just to put things into perspective.
My tech is based on lots of defense and speed with areas of offense and information groups. The military is so large and so complex it would be too large to discuss in this thread without losing all sense and form of the original idea; to announce my new shield type to the public.

Huntaer is currently running the largest FT for sure and possibly the largest overall storefront on NS. He's been doing quite well at it too, even though many of the ships are slightly dead-weight-ish. He at least has gone to the trouble to help define what the capabilities of certain SW and ST ships are, and to greatly expand on them. Some of the descriptions are rather weak, but even some of the worse ones are better than some found elsewhere. Huntaer has gotten quite good at RPing and is a member of/founded quite a bit. Don't try to run him down. Everyone here has flaws, me included.
I personally ignore puppeting, however if you'd like to RP against me with your other nation, I'd recognize it.
Lastly, this "mine is bigger" stuff is pretty annoying. Tanthan, you are slightly smaller than my nation, and from the looks of it you have a coalition forming against you. My advice: back down from Kyanges, negotiate a non-agression pact with the coalition, and hope that some of the coalition doesn't have empire on the brain.

The two don't mix. Keep in mind that before calling it a puppet. Its just everyone else hates my type of tech that no one will want to understand or can comprehend my technology. You need to be an anime fan and have a FAIRLY good background to get all the importance of names, places, weapons, and religion. Highly built on three main pillars from different anime. Abh from Crest of the Stars is the main. All my glyphic weapons and stuff are LOCKED away to. No one has ever gotten close enough on the forum to directly attack the homeworld and I keep all my true power there.
My outer forces are broken up in levels based on the families.
Outer Layer
Star Wars (oldest tech)
Star Trek (newer tech)
Nad. (Newer)
Crest of the Stars (Prominate)
Inner Layer
Crest of the Stars (War era)
Cross-over technology (messed up designs and specs from several eras)
Outer Homeworld System
Crest of the Stars (Late-War Designs)
Gundam Types (Mid-era)
Inner Homeworld
Original tech (EXTREMELY Strong)
For those wondering about the Capital it carries Homeworld tech.
Basically I will use what forces I have until you meet your own tech level, if you push any farther I will surrender or fall back and not expose you to superior forces out of honor. Only if you try to conquer something inside my system will I use everything I possess.
Original tech include
Glyphic, Alchemic and Magical technology
4th dimensional weaponry
Elite machines and people on the level of Gods
Elite assassins and military forces beyond normal ablilties
Biotechnological horrors, machines, demons
Basically I play fair and with great detail for Tanthan. If you THINK you can challenge my inner forces (and IRC is best for this) then I will gladly accept and start a inner war.

Well you'll be dealing with technology even though its very old, it can still hurt very bad. Our newer toys, you will not need to worry about... they'll be accepting your surrender. Even though our main fleets are of older tech, they have been refitted to modern Sebecean levels.
Our tech levels are as follows from oldest to newest
Hulk Warships (Command Carriers and Dreadnoughts)
Biomem/Symbiant Warships (Integrated Man and Machine
Modular Warships (Phalanx, Vultura, Decimator)
Modular-Symbiant Warships (Hybrid of two before- Aerahur Destroyer)
Each can hit kill you as dead as another.

Interesting....but lets say you come across a group of Tovenaars from Tanthan. They'll destroy even capital ships very quickly with their powers. A single Alchemist will render even the largest ships useless. The assassins are special and can teleport to any ship or nearly anywhere if the target is on a ship WITHOUT magnetic fields, and if the ship is moving slower then the assassin's max teleport speed.
The individual is a VERY powerful force to reckon with in Tanthan. That's why I have so many 'hero' units.

I personally think you have skill with role-playing. The thing is, this tech is confusing for those of us who don't watch the aforementioned anime. (I live in an inbred WASP town in the bible belt @@) Now, your tech idea here is to have shieldships, which is a perfectly acceptable idea. HOWEVER, I don't understand if the shieldships are covered by their own generators or not. The big problem people have with the tech is one single line in the post. A full test was conducted recently the proved of a unified field is capable of deflecting EVERY attack known to Tanthan.
The bolded word is what everyone's upset about. Everyone here should be okay with the idea of shieldships. Heck, I've even toyed with the idea myself. However, you can emphasize that it could be penetrated by something as of yet unknown to your nation. That'd allow leeway for the RP to flow on without you getting an invincible advantage.
The main reason I recommended the pact is that regardless of tech, you're just as dead by a bow or a laser. So the sheer number of enemies would not only end in an ugly dogpile with accusations of godmoding all around, it'd be boring. If the RP did succeed and avoided a breakdown, you'd probably get crushed by the sheer number of enemies, unless you have a couple allies as big as Doujin or AMF to help you. And I hate dogpiles, number-wank RPs where one side is drasticly larger, and flame-fests.
I have an idea to clear up your frustration. Say if anyone wants to declare war on you, they have to read your factbook and understand the tech. Then flush out the factbook with everything someone might want to know when rping against your nation. Just ignore those who don't even attempt to understand.
If Kyanges won't be around to RP the treaty, I can do it in his stead if he'd like.
Darn I waited sooo long to post that...stupid error.
Umm HAHAHAHA! I was FT before you joined and stayed in MT with the divison until I finished it up and flattened out my tree.
I shall put up the link and quote for when you started "Where the Sun Don't shine RP:
OOC: This is the beginning of the big future-tech expansion for Tanthan after the launch of the probes from the Archangel project to the rocketing towards the stars. This is an open RP for all future-tech players.

What's your excuse for that? It was first posted up Feb. 2005. That was where you FIRST stared out as an FT nation. You said it yourself then.
And I happen to Know you were more MT than FT before I started out.
Cut the crap.
Riiight...I still wouldn't think you'd survive against, uh....8 almost-year-old nations?
Let's see...Huntaer,No Endorse, Kyanges, New Dornalia and Setian-Sebeceans, the GE, The Kirtir Order (Huntarian Sith),The Devil's Ops. Order, The Necrosis Order, Lords of Chaos...
And their allies as well.
(*Chaninging attitude slightly*)
Technically, The Kirtir Order would be only me and Devil's Ops would only be me(my special forces team). GE never said anything. I'm just a member (and they haven't been active recently), Lords of Chaos is Chronosia's team.
Therefor, The Necrosis Order is the only one here which is my special group of alliance where I could (if I was really desperate) call to my aid.
GE and Lords of Chaos are all seperate alliances/groups aren't under my controle. Though I could request for help if I really needed it.
Also, if tanthan RP's correctly, he could defeat 8 nations. It's a slight chance, but it is still possible.

FT expansion yes...I never left Earth until then. My tech was already above 2050 making me Post-MT at the least, but I did space stuff so I had to go FT.
I was already Elven and using robots for a lot of things. I also kept a MT divison on Earth afterwards, that's what Archangel was for.
Read what you say and the entire sentence, people don't do that enough as it is. Try to read the full thing or actually RP with me before shooting down EVRYTHING.

Interesting....but lets say you come across a group of Tovenaars from Tanthan. They'll destroy even capital ships very quickly with their powers. A single Alchemist will render even the largest ships useless. The assassins are special and can teleport to any ship or nearly anywhere if the target is on a ship WITHOUT magnetic fields, and if the ship is moving slower then the assassin's max teleport speed.
The individual is a VERY powerful force to reckon with in Tanthan. That's why I have so many 'hero' units.
I rarely let people use fantasy with sci-fi stuff (I hate the merged sections in the bookstores) but let me warn you, If you use fantasy crap I will have to use the Three. The Three are my Gods: Setalinius, Conois, Higarius. They can't do magic, but they have reached Singularity, they understand the secrets of the Universe. They are not supernatural... mearly the founders of our people, but they can use terrors unseen. We can wipe your nation from existance, with no trace of you if you decide to use magic.

Tovenaars are magic users, but they have limits.
Alchemists aren't magical, they use knowledge and skill to change stuff
A Tovenaar Alchemist is the only race that can do both magic and alchemical transmogrification at the same time or use combinations.
I have alot of stuff....beware my diversity. XD
