Yeah, they're carbon copies with changed numbers but I'm lazy and don't want to come up with advanced fleets. I don't know if I'll be supporting the AoN/GFFA or the GE in this war yet, but those are the (tentative) numbers of ships in my navy.

OOC: First, I know, no more OOC. This is the last.
Secondly. Reasonless? Gangbangers?
Godular is a close ally. We shall aid them.
Thirdly. We are a sovereign nation. We are not a collection of uncouth individuals who seek to cause general mischief, destruction, and consternation. Hmm, it would seem to me the GE fits that description very well.
Ah yes, Godular; your close ally and the aggressor of this piece. Like he said, it's primarily alliance Vs Alliance; and as likely as those wars are to collapse; everyone elses interference is all the more likely to fuck it up.
I think you'll find that we Chronosian's are far from uncouth; we're quite civilised; machiavellian; and not at all common. It just seems like your the one with the grudge against the GE; for whatever reason I don't know; and want to get in on the action. Godular serves as rather the convenient excuse; what did you do to the GE that allows you to prance about with the fact that their your enemy stuck in your sig?

Of course, I will be with you to provide support. The Qinghai Incident hasn't affected the five fleets I had built earlier, or the uberships I had (Drama Casserole Class).
It's a hit and run attack, all I plan to do is launch a few torpedoes at the planet, make sure they go off, and get the hell out. That and the (somewhat ignored) request for aid should help a bit.

Anyways, I believe it would be prudent to label war threads, seeing as so many people are involved in this fight. Also, we should set up WHO is fighting in WHAT theatre at WHAT time, as to avoid numberwanking and gangbanging.

I've managed it before, so I think I have a chance, no matter how slim. Will be somewhat greater if I get the assistance I requested *cough*slackers*cough*.
*Sigh* everytime this last week I tried to post up my fleet entering, and I couldn't 'cause jolt was on crack or I ran out of time on NS.
As to who is fighting who, I would like to go against the theater New Dornalia is in. We're RL friends, but Icly enemies. It's easier for me to contact him and coordinate my attacks on him rather than going against Godular (that's my second option).

If someone has a problem with this fleet, tell me and I'll make changes.
I talked to N.D. the other day about sending in my Nemesis TSSD and he didn't have a prob. Thought of sending in the Megaladon's at the last minute considering how I'll be going up against multiple enemies and I will need lots of heavy support.

As it is, I have fleets mobilized, but have not committed them yet. I was discussing aiding an assault with Gaia Rodina on another planet, but I could spare another ubership (the promised Battlestar Potemkin) and a couple more fleets to aid the Lincoln Brigade fighting the Kirtir, that would be a way to do things, no?

Sure, two super command ships for the each of us is fair (plus, mine are a bit more powerful).
Also, I have a sub plot for the G.F.F.A. to capture Shelintiave if anyone doesn't mind. This which will lead to Shelintiave's eventual turn over to the Light Side after she learns that her brother is alive and is leading the Malkir against the Huntarian Empire.

Two? I was just gonna send the Potemkin. But then again, looking at the fleet order of battle, I may dig up the Warmaster St. Ushankov to put the pressure on your uberships too. It gives me an opportunity to use them, anyway.
And I think the Acolytes of the Lincoln Brigade could help with that last subplot.

As a result of their compact stature and ease of storage, each Slaughterking and Deathlord can store seventy-five Slaymaster fightercraft that can be fully dispersed in under a minute.
I'll have to put down the Slaughterking and Slaymaster stats somewhere when I get the time. I'll also have to bring out updated specs of the Archonal Command ships and of the Four Horsemen...

Wait, anybody need me at all? From the looks of things, Mini Miehm is getting tag-teamed at New Dornalia, and the thingie at Dweledelfia appears to be little more than Talaax attempting a bio attack that will cause minor-moderate damage before containment.
If not, I'll just start up my own offensive. These battles are turning out surprisingly short.

Minor-moderate? The bacteria are fast acting and self-propogating. The entire ecosystem would be destroyed within a month, irreversible damage in half that. The attack would have killed millions before a suitable antibiotic substance could be created in enough quanitity to end the infection.

Okay, MM, I have been looking at your posts, and judging by your questions about my Demolisher Guns, your responses (which puzzled me and frustrated me) and on the advice of Kyanges (an RL friend), it seems that we have some misunderstandings about the way my tech works. I'll just say that right now. I have done some lookings at at your tech, which explains my movements up and down.
First off, every People's Hammer Antimatter torpedo is packed with 150 kilograms of good old fashioned antimatter. That's enough to sunder planets apart....yet your ships seem to be taking no damage whatsoever.
Second, I do use regular SW torpedoes, but I also use upgunned variations such as the El Cid displayed here, and I also performed a blanket upgrade of all the other SW types, so they're not going to be cookie-cutter bland generic pushovers.
Mark II Proton Torpedoes (El Cid)
Upgrades of the original Star Wars-style Proton Torpedo in use, this new type is simply an elongation of the torpedo from its original conical shape into a longer cone, whereupon an increased explosive payload and a Taishonium charge weighing 2-5kg is used to deliver 4x greater damage than a standard Torpedo. The torpedo also recieves enhanced electronics and increased manueverability thanks to the addition of enhanced steering thrusters.
Other torpedo types, such as concussion torpedoes and whatnot, are recieiving general upgrades in electronics and payload size and propulsion.
Specific Upgrades would include the electronics featured on the People's Hammer, which is the paragon of ND Torpedoes. This would make them smarter (with greater accuracy, aided by the Anaconda torpedo launcher turret's flexible barrel), faster, and more durable.
People's Hammer-
People's Hammer Antimatter Torpedo
Utilizing the equilvalent of a 14V battery, an internal generator keeps 50kg antimatter seperated from a 50kg load of Deuterium Gas, mined from New Leningrad. A JTC-1 Guidance Computer maintains the torpedo's course, guiding it to its target and keeping it going nose first. The torpedo either detonates on impact using a pressure switch in the nose that activates after a heavy force (say, a full frontal impact on enemy shielding or hull plating), or shuts off the anitmatter containment field and opens the deuterium canister at a preprogrammed distance from the target.
Stats:
Name: People's Hammer Antimatter Torpedo
Size: 1.5m long, .5m wide
Warload: 150kg Antimatter/Deuterium Binary Charge w/ 14V Powerpack for a low yield forcefield, 1x ToSh-1 Shield System to protect the torpedo
Range: 1-3 lightyears
Engine: ToE-1 Hydrogen Fusion Motor with integrated ToFTL-1 Hyperdrive Unit capable of 80 MGLT
Body: Leninite-Manganese-Titanium Shell, Diamond hull plating for extra ray-shield defense
Blast Magnitude: Classified, estimated to be able to open a hole the size of Africa if fired at the Earth.
Role: Fleet superiority
Deployed on: Mao Zedong II, Zaitsev ISD, Peter Townshend Mobile Suit (Modified for use in MSGEP-1 Guided Explosive Projectile Launcher)
Cost: USD$70,000,000
People's Hammer, like most New Dornalian torpedo types, has undergone minor upgrades to expand payload, improve manuverability and accuracy in battle.
Third, I also use Warp Cannons derived from Chronosian designs (which in turn inspired the upgunned Demolisher Gun), which are a heckuva lot stronger than SW Turbolasers, in fact, speaking to Huntaer (a 40K fan himself), he classified the Warp Cannon as a heavy gun. In other words, something not to sneeze at. I also use Super Warp Cannons; my versions are akin to Yamatos in charging time, and power. And, I use Gauss Guns for point defense and as a kind of flak.
Fourth: The Storm Eagle Defense System is, well, I'll let the post describe it:

Before we argue about anything, I think you should read this: http://infodump.thefifthimperium.com/Harrington/hh_wedge_geometry.htm It explains the use and properties of a Wedge and sidewalls. Note, some things apply less
I think the issue is a perception of the strength of weapons VS shields. The Peoples Hammer hit the upper aspect of an Impeller wedge. The upper and lower aspects of a wedge are impenetrable, except by Singularities and Vong Basals.
All of the following statement is predicated on having my ships broadside on to your ships, that being said...
The basic issue with the various energy torpedoes is this: They will be making contact with the sidewalls. The blast will be triggered at that point, which is, according to the developer of the tech 10,000m from the ship. They have large blast radiuses, but not that large. The BEST way to defeat a ship with a Wedge would be to use fighters, and attack the Impeller Rings from INSIDE the Wedge. Or, you could steer around so that you're bow on with them, shooting right down the unprotected throat of the wedge.

Ah....I see. Not bad, I'll take the latter suggestion, or use Mobile Suits- they're the only ones cleared for People's Hammer use on a small scale.

I don't see the condition of this RP being disturbed at all, especially not by you. (if anyone here has suggested that, they should be fed saltpeter)
However, we need to iron this out. Gaia Rodinia DID have an inhibiter field up in his invasion of the planet. You can claim that he never mentioned it as on, BUT he never mentioned de-activating it. You're assuming that he de-activated it (Not always necessary to allow friendly ships in. Some can accept security codes and open localized holes, just like the main worlds of the Empire did.)
IMO no mention of a change of status of the FTLi denotes no change in status. It's like fleets. If you don't say that they've advanced from point A to point B, they have clearly stayed at point A and done nothing. Or like people. Your national leader goes to a confrence. Until you state that he's somewhere else, he's effectively still at that confrence (unless it's a catastrophic thread death)
How about this: there is no change in the FTLi. All of his fleets that went to re-inforce are still traveling through the inhibitor field to get to the planet. The GG shell is pulled out of hyper at the edge of the system. That way you can tear up his local fleet pretty bad with the shell, but he keeps the planet. (damage to the local fleet might lower the inhibitor)
Just spewing junk. However, I would rather see my nation in ruins, my people in chains, and the entirety of the GFFA destroyed than let a petty argument like this destroy a potentially historic RP.
EDIT: for record's sake, No Endorse is covered by a complex network of FTLi generators, and damaged space-time (great big battle with singularity weapons long time ago in the nation's history. Makes getting anywhere a pain.)
Those FTLi are all over, except for fixed hypergates between systems, and several routes out of the nation.
I, also, would like to encourage everyone to remain calm. Important as it is to avoid letting OOC concerns affect IC actions, it is even more so to avoid letting IC enmity lead to OOC conflict. Let's not make accusations about lowering the quality of the RP because of honest mistakes, much less strategic moves we don't like.
For the record, let it be noted that the three primary Kendaryn systems are protected by FTLi systems, which will remain active unless I state otherwise.
Azaha, I can't get online because I am at school. you can send me an email if you want.
MM and Chron, I was about to defend my statement but I have decided not to stir the pot anymore. I think it is a bad weapon, you don't. Whatever. I'll take back my sarcasm, and move on in the interests of avoiding a flamefest.
EDIT: Chon, never did I say you rp poorly or were endangering the quality of the rp. My comment was restricted to the GG itself and nothing else.

This is a matter of scale. A 'small' (few hundred meters MAX I think) shell can't overpower a huge warfleet all generating an FTLi, just like a small laser can't break a large shield, or like a light 'armor penetrating' round would run away crying from an M1A1's front armor. If you really want to break the lockdown, just try overloading Godular's FTLi. You'll burn out quite a few of your own FTL generators, but you'll overload his inhibitor generators.

There's ways to stop it. It just requires a functioning brain.* It also helps if you consider tactical problems from both sides before acting.

@SeaQuest: Will do.
@Khurgan: I'll keep that in mind.
My understanding was that this was not an official G.F.F.A. action?
Any FTLi that wasn't capable of resisting nullification would be discarded as useless. It goes without saying that there's an ongoing race between FTL and FTLi technologies. Sure, the GG has a more advanced FTL than most, and is much more efffective at countering FTLi fields, but there's no way that one shell will go through a heavily defended system on war-time footing "like a hot knife through butter". Godular's trick wasn't overpowering your defenses; it was turning them against you. If you want to argue that there should be a way of defeating it besides hunting down and destroying his vessels, then I'm happy to support you on that, but it isn't at all comperable to simply blasting through someone's defenses with a FTLi Nullifier.
The part about communication between the two sides, I agree with completely.
Seaquest, bringing in outside alliances would be worse than bringing in outside allies.

Seaquest, bringing in outside alliances would be worse than bringing in outside allies.
Over conversation with Godular on MSN regarding his FTLi’s he is more than adamant that nothing can defeat his one ship, not even a system full of technology which is capable of defeating them.
I thought I would just make that clear, that Godular is refusing to compromise on any point in the RP.
The GE nations, primarily Chronosia has been patient and asked Godular on how to sort this out, but the man just refuses to play nice. Until Godular accepts for once in his life a defeat on his OMG tech, then the GG shells stay the same. Chronosia has made enough concessions already in this RP.
As for SeaQuest, grow up, and just fight the war nicely, if Chron really wanted to he could call upon a lot more than just the GE, he is after all a member of the ESUS.
So far, most problems in the RP have not been created by Chronosia, but members of the GFFA failing to meet a compromise, and until then, no GE nation see why they should continue to compromise?
Its two edged sword people.

Which is why Chronosia is attempting to avoid the degeneration of the Roleplay. I feel that my previous post and comment towards SeaQuest was not rude, but actually appropriate.

If you want to overload Godular's little FTLi, then shut down your planetary FTLis (his device mostly just distorts your control over them I think, while producing a far weaker FTLi on its own) and then try to continuously jump a full scale battlefleet in and out. He'll have to let it up or it will overload. If it doesn't overload with an entire FLEET against it, then it's essentially a Godmode. All FTLi can be broken, even the big planetary-grade ones (even if it would take more energy than I really want to think about right now...)

It seems I've been ignoring this thread for too long.
This is a one on one alliance fight here and I have made it known to all members that it is so. As regards to new members, the only one that has been added so far is Kyanges because of RPing with him in the past. He was admitted at the beginning of all this and there was enough time for politics to take their place. As for the rest that wish to join, I don't have a problem with letting them go through diplomacy but it will take time and they won't be able to participate until everything is finished. I am highly doubting to let anyone join so quickly. That's how we lost so many members in the first place. *coughs*
US, CW, or whoever the heck you are, you and Chronosia both have my MSN if you need to discuss things more about the GFFA.
Guys we are trying to make this a good RP. If you want to attack someone, work out between each other so this can all be better coordinated.
Sithy is trying to push in the concept that his FTLi can absorb energy from other FTLis with the effective simple flip of a switch.
Imagine the following scenario:
Sithy's FTLi field is presently active around Imperial Planet X. Standard issue 'All-Encompassing FTLi', radius... oh... say... 5 light years. Now imagine that this FTLi field generates a specific waveform of spatial distortion or whateverthefuck it might operate on, which serves to disrupt any attempt at bending or breaking space in order to travel faster than the speed of light.
Imagine then, a massive installation that hippitty hops into existence within the field, samples the waveform of the FTLi field, and then sets to work messing it up all to heck and gone, reinforcing and adding frequencies to the waveform such that the thing is now incapable of being controlled in any precise manner, thereby shutting down any entry corridors and randomized whatzits.
Now, imagine that, in turn, the generator should happen to have a switch that... reverses the flow. This function not only shuts down its own FTLi field, which the destabilizer is constructed to counter by picking up the slack of its own accord, but supposedly operates as a form of energy syphon that somehow manages to drain the offending destabilization device of all of its energy.
Now, disregarding (at first) the notion that in order to take energy from another thing requires a rather physical connection such as a bloody POWER CORD, the fundamental physics of this thing is all wrong. To set the thing on reverse would simply alter the waveform of the FTLi such that it was moved, shall we say, by a simple factor of pi.
I.E. the waveform flips.
Now, realizing that the Destabilizer relies upon the original FTLi field for the nature of its own field, and that flipping the waveform is essentially just creating the EXACT SAME FIELD, the maneuver of Sithy's little switching from 'Blow' to 'Suck' is effectively impossible self-defeating.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, as a compromise that I offered and Sith seemingly refused to listen to. I did make clear that the Lockdown was not going to hinder the military strength of those GE members who participate in the follow-up war, as Sithy/Imperial Forces would be essentially removed from the conflict and nobody else.
I dunno, he sounded like he took some personal umbrage about it all.

Most of those "Horror Stories of Old" were from my younger days, when I did godmod because I had not yet learned the ins and outs of RPing, or, were because my opponent, whomever that might have been, was absolutely adamant about winning.
You see, every single time the opponent would claim to have better technology. Or say that simply because they were bigger they had to win. Or some other stupid thing. I was never allowed to win. Understandably, in desperation, I would try to come up with some way of circumventing whatever undefeatable technologies they had, only for them to ignore it. That is the reason that so many "Horror Stories" became thus. Because both parties, myself and my enemy, would not accept defeat. In many cases, I just withdrew from the battle and let them have their little victory, because, quite frankly, I was tired of all the degenerating threads.
I do not intend to be the cause of any such thing this time. As you see, you guys have done a pretty good job without me of screwing things up. I rest my case.

Well, the reason it's so screwed up is because none of it was discussed with me; barring one bare bones run through. Something of this scale has to be planned and coordinated...
One thing I'd like to see is a thread about Imperial efforts to find a solution to the FTLi trick. There could be a gathering of scientists and engineers, and spying efforts by both sides, and GFFA attempts to disrupt the project, and all sorts of fun stuff. This would give us something going on in the war effort besides people trying to blow each other up. Any one else like the idea?

First of all, most of your technology is simply impossible and since this is Future Tech, well anything is possible provided there is a sufficient wank explanation.
To reinforce the Dimensional wall and warp the fabric of space time to keep your FTLi in existence you must pump extra energy into the Dimensional wall. As such you are increasing the energy in the wall above the natural norm. I’m saying that since the GE’s FTLi work by pumping energy in to space time and FTLi’s is actually possible to absorb energy from the Wall itself, thereby rendering your little ploy null and void, as the energy you exert is simply drained away, leaving the wall at its normal. Essentialy, I invisage it as you attempting to fill up a bath, however the Imperial FTLi’s are simply draining all the water you put in.
I maintain its valid, and your continued refute of anyone elses technology or idea is just another example of a little tech miser you are.
Secondly, you have no right to say what is and is not possible in FUTURE TECH, where people throw around black holes, nova suns, have 20km long capital ships, and work by travelling through time and alternate dimensions. You have no right in FREEFORM roleplay.
Thirdly, Godular, when was the last time you were ever defeated? When was the last time you ever made a concession on technology? I can name many when Chron made concessions, he’s been making them repeatedly throughout this thread, you, HAVE NOT
Finally, yes, I have been taking this personally, as you have been taking the ever patient Chronosia for a ride. You refuse to accept a concession ever where the possibility of you losing is even in the horizon. Your such a little Godmoder and Wankfester.

Wait, you're saying that an emmitter designed to pump a ton of energy into space-time is capable of absorbing all of the ambient energy around it? That's like saying a lightbulb can absorb all of the light in a room, or a speaker can absorb all of the sound around it! Almost like saying a machine guna can absorb all of the bullets fired in a half-mile radius.
You can shade the far side of your systems maybe, but you can't claim the ability to use your FTLi to supress other FTLi BLANKET. Maybe if you'd invested in an FTLi supressor.
There is actually another way your idea can work now that I think about it. Use your FTLi to emmit energy at the exact opposite frequency and at the exact power of Godular's. So long as he stays locked to one freq and power level, you can cancel it out. And yet again, why not just jump the DS and a whole warfleet in there, and start jumping in and out over and over? You'd overload him!

Lol. This time I didn't ask him directly. So, don't go yelling at me, US.
You know, its amusing when you prove me so bloody right, Sithy. I did say it. I did say "You know its truuuuuuuue what they say, nobody ever really quits."
First of all, most of your technology is simply impossible and since this is Future Tech, well anything is possible provided there is a sufficient wank explanation.
My technologies take into account the various rules of physics that I have learned throughout my time in college. I get around the rules when I need to, I don't break them. There are places even I won't go, such as Temporal tech. The only things I do are related to blurry areas in physical science, where there's still room to work.
Sci-Fi may be fiction, but its also supposed to make people think. There is a concept of possibility inherent to sci-fi where it brings out ideas that we haven't really thought about or at the present time lack the capacity to explore.
My tech is improbable, not impossible, same as any Sci-Fi tech SHOULD be.
To reinforce the Dimensional wall and warp the fabric of space time to keep your FTLi in existence you must pump extra energy into the Dimensional wall.
And that is where your fundamental misunderstanding of the concept manifests. Like any waveform effect, the energy directly manifests from the source, not IN the waveform. You can't syphon energy from the source of a wave when only in contact with the wave itself. You are not in contact with the generator. You are in contact with the effect. Thereby therefore your percieved answer is pointless.
As such you are increasing the energy in the wall above the natural norm. I’m saying that since the GE’s FTLi work by pumping energy in to space time and FTLi’s is actually possible to absorb energy from the Wall itself, thereby rendering your little ploy null and void, as the energy you exert is simply drained away, leaving the wall at its normal. Essentialy, I invisage it as you attempting to fill up a bath, however the Imperial FTLi’s are simply draining all the water you put in.
Your own metaphor fails. The proper usage would be to say you're trying to suck the ocean out with a straw while I'm slapping the surface making waves. One does not affect the other.
I maintain its valid, and your continued refute of anyone elses technology or idea is just another example of a little tech miser you are.
And you're incorrect. Not because it goes against my tech, but because your explanation is fundamentally flawed. You can't suck the air out of the lungs of a screaming person by breathing in.
Secondly, you have no right to say what is and is not possible in FUTURE TECH, where people throw around black holes, nova suns, have 20km long capital ships, and work by travelling through time and alternate dimensions. You have no right in FREEFORM roleplay.
Incorrect. I have every right. Same as you have the right to challenge me. But your argument better be damn good, homeboy. And at this point in time, it ain't.
If people can explain their tech properly, I have no problem. Its when somebody says that some tech of theirs does Randomized Act of Uberosity That Directly Breaks X-Physical Rule with no explanation as to how it achieves such a move that I'll pop in and ask them how it achieves such things, as it is in the information that understanding is achieved.
Just because its Freeform roleplay does not mean there is not a set of rules to go by.
Thirdly, Godular, when was the last time you were ever defeated? When was the last time you ever made a concession on technology? I can name many when Chron made concessions, he’s been making them repeatedly throughout this thread, you, HAVE NOT
First, the war over Klington. The one where everything went to shitsville while I was in Astrophysics class. I was prolly gonna lose that thing anyway. Klington surrendering after the loss of one ship while I was learning how to tell the mass of the stars in a binary system based on their orbits kinda startled me.
Second, I make concessions in my technology all the time, but I will ONLY do it if there is a damn good reason to do so. If it is a legitimate point, which yours is not, then I will very easily make the alteration. Besides, I do so much research that oftentimes the whole issue becomes moot.
Finally, yes, I have been taking this personally, as you have been taking the ever patient Chronosia for a ride. You refuse to accept a concession ever where the possibility of you losing is even in the horizon. Your such a little Godmoder and Wankfester.
Sticks and stones. Coming from you as these comments are, I'm not insulted at all.
Edited to add: Oh, and everybody, no more additions and bandwagon hop-ons please. I ask this of everybody on my side. No temporary alliance membership or allowing third parties to hoppity hop in. Me and Chrono are working on an equitable final sequence.
And you're incorrect. Not because it goes against my tech, but because your explanation is fundamentally flawed. You can't suck the air out of the lungs of a screaming person by breathing in.
Why not? If your lungs are that much more powerful than the other person's and you are directly connected... I don't see why you couldn't.
They aren't though. You can hear the guy screaming, thereby feeling the energy that he is putting out. But you can't do the opposite of what he is doing, I.E. inhaling, and suck the air from the guy's lungs just because you're within earshot.
To do what Sithy says, and in keeping with the metaphor, he'd have to attach a vacuum to the screamer's face. THAT'S a direct connection.

DMG, That's a lot like saying that your lightbulb can absorb all of the energy my lightbulb puts out, even when they're three meters away from each other.
Think of the FTLi generators like lightbulbs. Your planetary one is like a light in the center of a table. You can locally put a small object in it to make a shadow and allow FTL travel. However, you can also set up another light bulb nearby to illuminate some of the shadows, or cast them in different directions. That's all he's doing.
You can do 2 things in this instance that would actually work: use your own FTLi to generate an inhibitor field at the exact opposite freqency, canceling his out OR, try to overload it with a huge ammount of ships trying to jump in and out.

First of all... I am not actually arguing the point; only that his analogy didn't quite work.
However, the analogy you provided (compared to mine, not the FTLi), is not in fact analogous. The difference is that lungs have the ability to pull in or push out [air], while lightbulbs can only do the latter.
NE: Well, truth be told, Trying to overload it in that manner is also assuming, however indirectly, that the actions upon the waveform directly affects the generator.
DMG: And the analogy does work, I think you just misunderstood a small aspect. Without direct contact with the generator of the waveform, you cannot drain the energy from the generator itself.

Uh... I believe that I said I was not comparing his analogy to that of the actual issue (the FTLi), but rather to mine... which was a comment on yours. I also said when they are in direct contact.
Which is the key point.
They AREN'T.

Perhaps I should re-quote what you and I said:

I said... yes it is possible if they are in direct contact.
All I was saying is that your exact words were not completely correct. My point was that in that instance you did not specify that they couldn't be in contact... if you don't understand my point, drop it.
I do understand your point. In the vein of my previous commentary, you should have been able to note that I was not speaking in the case of being latched onto the other guy's face like a lamprey.

First of all, most of your technology is simply impossible and since this is Future Tech, well anything is possible provided there is a sufficient wank explanation.
To reinforce the Dimensional wall and warp the fabric of space time to keep your FTLi in existence you must pump extra energy into the Dimensional wall. As such you are increasing the energy in the wall above the natural norm. I’m saying that since the GE’s FTLi work by pumping energy in to space time and FTLi’s is actually possible to absorb energy from the Wall itself, thereby rendering your little ploy null and void, as the energy you exert is simply drained away, leaving the wall at its normal. Essentialy, I invisage it as you attempting to fill up a bath, however the Imperial FTLi’s are simply draining all the water you put in.
I maintain its valid, and your continued refute of anyone elses technology or idea is just another example of a little tech miser you are.
Secondly, you have no right to say what is and is not possible in FUTURE TECH, where people throw around black holes, nova suns, have 20km long capital ships, and work by travelling through time and alternate dimensions. You have no right in FREEFORM roleplay.
Thirdly, Godular, when was the last time you were ever defeated? When was the last time you ever made a concession on technology? I can name many when Chron made concessions, he’s been making them repeatedly throughout this thread, you, HAVE NOT
Finally, yes, I have been taking this personally, as you have been taking the ever patient Chronosia for a ride. You refuse to accept a concession ever where the possibility of you losing is even in the horizon. Your such a little Godmoder and Wankfester.
Easy with the name calling, before this descends into madness.
Hey you didn't reply to my post... :( I feel unloved.

I already think it has. This was supposed to be an uber-RP arc, but it has degenerated into just another 'slug fest.'

I kinda agree. Not only with fleets, but "verbaly" kinda as well.
U.S. and Godular:
Do you two know eachother RL and don't get along, or is there something else that has happened deep in ancient NS history that causes these sorts of things to happen?
Apart from when Sithy rp'd destroying my nation in a supposed 'Alternate Reality' thing without even asking for my permission to do so, even though it was of little more than token importance, and then refused to alter it accordingly when I said he most definitely did NOT have permission to do so, There wouldn't be much bad blood between us.
I think its more due to the fact that we're both ridiculously stubborn.

Alternate universe? Wha....? Why in the name of Benjamin Franklin's spinning grave did this happen?
