Pin this so I don't need to keep making more topics.

----

Graviton Repulser Shield - A graviton repulser does a simple job, it removes gravity's effect by not allowing gravitons near a certain mass within its radius. The stronger the gravity the more energy that is required to sustain it.

Wormhole technology - This works by boring a hole through the fabric of space, connecting to points in space. Similar to that of a magic portal. Requires a large amount of energy.

Energy absorber - This technology absorbs all energy coming from a certain direction, be it light, kinetic, radiation. Any kind of energy is absorbed into the technology.

More to come.

So far sounds good, though you'll need at least a couple ship types before you'll really be able to engage in much battle.

I approve.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #2 on:** November 15, 2009, 01:13:03 AM »

Approved.

Why the hell is there a time limit for edits? Fix that shit.

Promethium-class heavy attack fighter - This heavy fighter is known for its speed, destructive capabilities, and armor sports a powerful engine, five missile pods on the single 'wing', and four powerful energy beams it can do some damage. With more armor and shielding then your normal fighter it can take a good amount of punishment as well.

Winged fox-class personal corvette - This corvette is known for its speed, while it isn't armored anymore than your average corvette it can outrun ships three times it's class. It has minimal weapons a powerful energy beam on front and a turret on top, for taking out fighters.

Cross-class capital ship - This capital ship is known for its powerful ship-to-ship weapons, using ten unknown light based weapons that have been known to take out Cruisers in a single shot. These weapons are fondly known as the 'Lance of Dawn' since they fire large very intense "lances" of light which easily pierce through most armor and shielding. It has a special overdrive tactic known as 'Lance Storm' when it emits a large orb of the intense light before which fires millions of lances at various targets whenever they are marked as hostile. Hits however leads to a time of weakened shields and weapons.

Lance of Dawn - This weapon fires super-intense light in Lance like shapes, these Lances travel at the speed of light, do immense amount of damage, and can be fired in rapid rate.

How long does the weakened effect of the Cross' overdrive function last?

Orph · « **Reply #5 on:** November 16, 2009, 04:56:32 PM »

Entire topic, since it will lead to major damage of nearly all surrounding enemy vessels. The LOD weapons are those blue lights, the overdrive orb is emitted from the top structures, that looks like half an Roman arena.

Nisorin · « **Reply #6 on:** November 16, 2009, 07:21:02 PM »

Ah, I thought the effect was done by some extra thing specifically affecting the shields and weapons.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #7 on:** November 18, 2009, 10:43:33 PM »

How long does it take for the lasers to charge? Also, the unknown part of the lasers need to be revealed later, or it has to be put on now. It needs to charge for several posts to take out a cruiser in a hit. Also, how do the fighters go faster if they have more armor than an average fighter? It's mass would slow it down. Also, your corvette would need to have lighter armor than average to go three times as fast.

Nisorin · « **Reply #8 on:** November 19, 2009, 10:52:45 PM »

Changing the armor isn't the only way to get more speed out of a vehicle, Gaserlake. You could use a better propulsion system or a more efficient fuel source.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #9 on:** November 20, 2009, 11:39:19 PM »

Yes, but for a corvette, or a fighter, no. It would take too much power at once from such a small generative source.

Orph · « **Reply #10 on:** November 29, 2009, 02:27:54 PM »

You're assuming that it is using a conventional fuel source, it doesn't but I haven't got around to posting yet.

Strange matter - Strange matter is a particular form of quark matter, usually thought of as a 'liquid' of up, down, and strange quarks. This matter has the strange effect when it comes into contact with other types of matter, it causes the said matter to transform into strange matter. If a drop of strange matter was launched onto a planet the entire planet would soon become a giant orb of strange matter. Therefore uninhabitable and deadly to the touch of all organic beings. Its harvested from the cores of neutron stars. In the case of the Archive they have launched strange matter into a nearby black hole, therefore creating a large self-replenishing but incredibly hard to access store of strange matter. As it cannot be contained by normal means the Archive uses electro-magnetic fields to keep it in place.

Strange matter bomb - This bomb is used as a last resort agaisnt a enemy's planet, if the Archive needs that planet gone then they use this. A strange matter bomb, loaded with nothing but a one ton of strange matter and a EM field to keep it in place it is launched towards the surface. The EM field cuts out once it hits the atmosphere and the bomb sprays the matter around. Increasing the amount of non-strange matter the strange matter come in contact with, and the strange takes over.

Strange matter missile - This missile is used as a anti-titan weapon, fired upon the planet sized ship when its shields are down. Then the strange matter takes effect and turns the entire thing and its occupants into strange matter. Like the SM bomb it uses a EM field to keep the SM from coming into contact with the missile itself, once it comes into contact with the ship the EM field cuts out and the ship is fucked.

Archive NEMESIS type engine - The NEMESIS engine is a basically a hollow sphere with the inside lined with energy absorption technology, anti-matter is funneled into the sphere as well as common dirt, oil, lead, bark. Whatever the ship is loaded with, most commonly it is water. When the anti-matter and the water collide a massive explosion takes place within the sphere, but the energy absorption technology absorbs the entirety of the explosion. Then funnels the energy towards the propulsion system. The larger the ship the larger the sphere and quantity of anti-matter funneled into the sphere. A speck of anti-matter can produce the same explosion of a five kiloton nuclear device, but without the radiative after-effects. and the EAT takes all of the energy for the propulsion system. Leading to the super-efficient fuel source.

Where does the power from the Energy Absorber go?
Strange Matter looks fine as long as there's no way to transform strange matter into any other form of matter, except maybe the original form of the matter before it took shape as strange matter. Otherwise, we'll have another Nyx situation on our hands.
I trust that the offensive use of this Strange Matter will come with fair warning a few posts before hand?

Orph · « **Reply #13 on:** November 29, 2009, 04:43:30 PM »

The power from the EAT goes towards the propulsion system, and yes it will.

K2 · « **Reply #14 on:** November 29, 2009, 04:55:29 PM »

I accept.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #15 on:** November 30, 2009, 10:53:14 PM »

I say it should be able to be transformed into other material, which includes what it previously was before it was turned into strange matter. This is Nyxmodding, as it has the same principles of what Nyx has, which is taking over stuff. And the black hole thing, uh, wouldn't the stuff inside the black hole turn into strange matter? Also, wouldn't that stop the process of the black hole, killing it? It should be used VERY RARELY for a drop of strange matter to make a hole planet become a blob. In fact, it would be god modding for it to be able to take over a titan, if it has shields on. For the NEMESIS, you didn't request the energy-absorbing tech, which is basically the EST. For the anti-matter, you got it wrong. A nuke releases only 1% of the energy. Anti-matter releases 100% of the energy, making it 100 times stronger than a nuke. This is just from an anti-matter atom and a matter atom. Thus, you need to use it sparingly.

Also, I know where you got the stuff about strange matter, but where did you get the info that if a drop reaches to a planet, it covers the planet?

Besides, I think this use of strange matter is Nyx modding.

Nisorin · « **Reply #16 on:** December 01, 2009, 12:48:51 AM »

I would think it would take an incredibly long time for the strange matter drop to convert an entire planet. Planets are quite large, after all.

Orph · « **Reply #17 on:** December 01, 2009, 11:05:19 PM »

It would take on the concept of ten times ten times ten.

One pound equals ten pounds, equals hundred, equals thousand, equals ten thousand, and so on. And that is within just a few seconds, its basically the technology version of Twilight energy, minus the other factors within the Twilight's power. It can convert matter to SM and nothing else.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #18 on:** December 02, 2009, 10:40:19 PM »

At that rate, it would cover the entire planet really fast.

Orph · « **Reply #19 on:** December 02, 2009, 11:28:28 PM »

Yes it would, its a pretty much a "If this hits your planet fuck you and you better leave quickly.".

Nisorin · « **Reply #20 on:** December 03, 2009, 04:41:41 PM »

Which would generate a situation too similar to the Nyx materials for me to be able to approve it, I'd think.

Orph · « **Reply #21 on:** December 03, 2009, 04:48:01 PM »

Nah, since Nyx was a fully controllable and pretty much a guided tsunami of rape. Strange matter is basically point and fire, and then get the hell out of the way. And it can only convert what it is in contact with, which is basically the planet at its atmosphere. Anything that escapes that before it is converted is fine.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #22 on:** December 03, 2009, 07:20:25 PM »

If you get out of the way of Nyx, you would be fine. Also, another thing is that your kind is a 'convert-and-forget', meaning you don't need to focus on guiding it, as it would do it on its own. Strange Matter brings a hell of a potential to become nyxmodding, if it isn't already, thus I'm not approving this.

Orph · « **Reply #23 on:** December 03, 2009, 07:37:17 PM »

Nyx modding was due to it other capabilities, it could heal ships, and was basically a guided missile. Strange matter can only convert, and is blocked by shields, which it cannot damage. Hell, there are tons of ways to counter it.

Gaserlake · « **Reply #24 on:** December 03, 2009, 08:21:27 PM »

Yes, but Strange Matter has one thing that makes it similar to Nyx, which is expanding, and expanding a hell of a lot. A drop making a planet a huge blob. Heck, making a ship in space Strange Matter would make space dust into Strange Matter. Space dust is everywhere, thus Strange Matter would be everywhere. You can come into contact with space dust with the atmosphere of the planet, and you can't control it, as it is unguided. Strange Matter can damage shields. A person running into a shield would damage the shield, but be disintegrated, and the shield would regenerate back to 100%. The reason is because of resistance against the shield. Strange Matter would do a hell of a lot of damage. Contact with the shield would cause resistance against the shield. Space dust turned into Strange Matter = uncontrollable blob of hell, that overwhelms ships, by surrounding them first, which is one capability of Nyx. Nyx surrounds ship, and inflicts enormous damage from all directions. That's the potential of Strange Matter.
