Fanrai,s scientists have invented an anti matter bomb. It will be tested on the asteroid Olympus.

ooc: Ok- what does this bomb do?

OOC Anti matter destroys matter, so this bomb destroys matter.

ooc: OK- how much? How powerful would it be, and what kind of blast radius would it have? Obviously, antimatter destroys matter, and there isn't a bomb in the world that isn't intended to destroy.

ooc:The amount of anti matter has to be the same as the thing you want to destroy, so the blast radius and power would vary depending on what you want to destroy. In this case , the blast radius is the size of a football feild.

Countdown:

Lifting off in 10, 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.Lift off!The anti matter bomb has succsefuly came off the ground. Now it just has to destroy it,s target.

Pls to be readink, kthxbai. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimatter)

( For a nation your size it would be impossible unless you are FT or extremely far into PMT. To create anti-matter is an excruciatingly long and arduous path that requires hundreds of thousands of particle accelerators. A particle accelerator(even the haldron collider) by itself can only make a few atoms of anti-matter. It requires grams which are made up of billion or trillions of anti-matter particles to produce the vast amounts of energy you describe. One last thing about anti-matter is the fact that you need two samples of it anti-matter carbon to carbon, anti-matter oxygen to oxygen, etc. once they come together even if its just one atom the reaction would blow the entire bomb sky high so transportation and containing is a bitch.

I know that anti-matter seems like a great idea but cost wise you could buy several hundred nuclear weapons and invest in radioactive dampening technology rather than building hundreds of particle accelerators. Trust me I should know I did the whole anti-matter thing and got flamed several times in rps)

[Not only is this poorly RPed and totally made-up, it's also ridiculous. Ralkovia's just made the only really constructive comment I was going to make, but all the same, please learn to use these forums]

(Oh. What do I do now?)

ooc I will take your advice Ralkovia.

ooc you calling it a bomb but here you firing as if it a rocket

ooc: Ralkovia is right. And isa, it could be a warhead on a missile.

(Depends is your country based in the future? post-modern? or modern times?

FT which stands for future means that your country has become intergalactic, you have spaceships that have hyperdrive/warp engines that you can travel to other solar systems with. Basically you are like star wars. You are at least 200 to 300 years past modern times. If you're FT then disregard what we have said since in FT "Anything is possible."

Key characteristics of FT nations
* Intergalactic trade or war
* Plasma/Anti-matter energy
* Alien races
* Hyperdrives/Slip drives/ warp engines
* Robots that can act like humans
* Large space armadas of warships
* Terraforming technology (can change the earth)
* Weapons capable of destroying planets
* And in many cases your home planet has been taken over by you. AKA Unification of home planet.

PMT which is for post-modern times, means that your ahead by at least a decade or something like that. You're still earth based but you have colonized planets or have technology far ahead of where we are today. You haven't traveled past the solar system yet. This would be where you would be if you just want to start using anti-matter and plasma weaponry. However this would still be costly.

Key characteristics of PMT nations
* Colonized planets in your solar systems
* Unification of your home planet in some cases
* Large exploration missions
* Research into engines capable of going the speed of light or slip space/hyperdrive/ warp
* research into plasma/anti-matter
* Large space stations that serve as colonies to reduce the amount of overpopulation on your planet or land
* Large use of robots for war


MT stands for modern times, you have the same technology that we have right now in present times. The characteristics are obvious.

((OOC: Hmm. It appears that Fanrai is 11-years-old. He's in 'Sixth Grade', apparently. At least, that's what is says on his Jolt Profile, I’m British, so I assume 6th Grade is the American version of P7.))

like i did not know, i waiting to see if they know it

Well, you don't HAVE to have an armada. Or a planet-destroyer. Or plasma/anti-matter (all my ships're nuke fusion). Or be an alien race. Or have anthropomorphic robots. Or be able to terraform.

Really, FTL travel is all you actually need.

One last thing about anti-matter is the fact that you need two samples of it anti-matter carbon to carbon, anti-matter oxygen to oxygen, etc.

Very close, but not quite. It's just anti-proton to proton, positron to electron.

ooc:The amount of anti matter has to be the same as the thing you want to destroy, so the blast radius and power would vary depending on what you want to destroy. In this case , the blast radius is the size of a football feild.

Umm....

The reaction of 1 kg of antimatter with 1 kg of matter would produce 1.8×1017 J (180 petajoules) of energy (by the mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc²), or the rough equivalent of 47 megatons of TNT. For comparison, Tsar Bomba, the largest nuclear weapon ever detonated, reacted an estimated yield of 50 Megatons, which required the use of hundreds of kilograms of fissile material (Uranium/Plutonium).

Do your research, please.

ooc what you saying is Late PMT

Yeah, PMT tends to be technology that's in research right now IRL -- Low-quality powered exoskeletons, maybe a low-tech space colony, some automation in war...

I think that Battlefield 2142's a pretty good example of a high PMT/ low FT nation.

((OOC: Hmm. It appears that Fanrai is 11-years-old. He's in 'Sixth Grade', apparently. At least, that's what is says on his Jolt Profile, I’m British, so I assume 6th Grade is the American version of P7.))

ooc: Actually, sixth grade is closer to 12-years-old. At least this explains some things. Suddenly, I'm feeling benevolent.

personally, Fanrai, I recommend that you stick with MT and low PMT, like me. It's easiest to RP, and you don' have to deal with invincible units/weaponry/tech (e.g. planet killers, invisible cloaking, teleportation, units like Greywatch drones, etc.). It's much harder for a nation to do anything resembling godmodding.

And isa, i'm sorry, but I doubt it. You would most likely have mentioned it otherwise. Of course, I could be wrong.

Very close, but not quite. It's just anti-proton to proton, positron to electron.

(Oops my bad. See Fanrai even I have some things to learn about anti-matter.

By the way I'm saying those are characteristics if you have a few of those then you are probably that type)

what are you on about

(exasperated) never mind, it doesn't matter
