Meh. Well, it doesn't change my verdict, because it can still happen.

Well, seeing as you can Jump Drive into ships and destroy them instantly, I think it's a bit fair.

Three problems. One, is that you would lose parts of the ships as soon as you JD into them, as the wormhole would still be there at the same time the ship is getting destroyed. The second is that I wouldn't waste the power of JD to kill a squadron of fighters and corvettes. Fighters and corvettes would be moving all the time. Third is the damage. My frigates would be heavily damaged just for trying to kill a fighter. My capital ships can be damaged just for trying to kill a corvette. If a fighter gets JD-ganked in the wrong place, my titan could go boom.

No, you've JD into capital ships with capital ships when you were losing.

Eh, the wormhole barrier can't pass through shields.

Implosion mining - Implosion mining is a technique of mining that the Archive uses when it isn't getting it's raw materials from it's Quasar, by drilling a hole to the core of a mineral world, they launch a powerful implosive device that turned the entire planet into a Manhattan sized orb of minerals. Which is then transported to the Library put in a gravitron shield and then slowly mined for minerals.

Gravity resistant armored super-soldiers/GRASS - The GRASS branch of the Archive ADF is a powerful part of it's military force, combing advanced mechanical armor technology and gravitron shields they can create a high-speed but still very heavily armored soldier, which they did. They are a total of eight feet tall. GRASS soldiers without the shielding enabled weigh about forty-three tons, with shielding enabled they way a total of five hundred pounds. Their armor despite it's weight is very compact, using compression technology they made the armor small but ungodly heavy. Meaning it has resistance comparable to that of Capital class armor. They are usually equipped with miniature sized rail-cannons that cannot be used by normal soldiers because of their recoil, which can break through steel. The rail-cannon fires a baseball sized slug at .5% the speed of light. Along with a shoulder mounted energy cannon, and a combat blade sharped down to it's atom, meaning it can cut through nearly anything that isn't compressed, but dulls to normal sharpness quickly. Most GRASS members also carry conventional weapons, basic ballistic and laser weaponry on their person and in extra pockets of their armor.

The armor can lift up to two times it's own weight, move at a speed of thirty-six miles per hour for a total of three hours straight, take a shit load of damage, and is equipped with a small shield generator, comparable to that of a corvette. GRASS soldiers go through years of training and genetic engineering, and the armor takes even longer to create, as it's designed specifically for that one soldier. The soldiers do not move it by moving their body, they are suspended in the weightlessness of the inside, attached to the back of the head is a micro-super computer that reads their brain activity and moves the machine as such, as well as relaying data to the brain.

This means that the soldier can fight for days on end, as they are pumped with nutrients and what is needed to keep the body going by the suit. These soldiers have been known to be extremely volatile when they are outside of their suit, this is due to the extreme emotional turmoil they go through in the training, but this just means that if you ever break their suit in combat, it might of been better to just run in the first place. The suits are powered by a small anti-matter generator, small enough to provide a large amount of energy, but enough to fit in the suit. They also have back-up power cells that can keep the armor going for up to seven hours. This means the Archive has a very small number of these soldiers, around five hundred in active duty at best. The armor self-destructs if the GRASS member is killed or leaves the suit prematurely, by means of a anti-matter generator melt-down. The armor is lined with lead to make it immune to EMP attacks.

For Implosion Mining, can you do this to any planet? If so, it's a bit too powerful, as you could use it as an offense against a planet.  And if you don't mean planet, what do you mean by 'mineral world?'

For your soldiers, I refuse to read over a wall of text that big, break it into damn paragraphs like a person would normally do.

Well, I could use it against any planet, but I'd first have to drill a hole into the core of the world, which is hard to do while they are shooting at you. Mineral worlds are just worlds with high concentrations of useful minerals.

And I did, idiots.

Let me get this straight. You're making infantry armor that has the same amount of protective rating as capital ship armor plating? How the hell would any weapon another infantry unit would have break that?

By two times its own weight, do you mean 1,000lbs, or 86 tons? If the latter, they'd be able to toss large buildings (if the building doesn't collapse first obviously) at their enemies, which I'd think you'll agree would be rather over the top.

Implosion mining I approve.
Seeing the world through a child's eyes is truly a unique experience. It helps you to retrieve that sense of awe, magic and wonder that you lost as you lost your innocence. Tell me, when was the last time that you thought of those childhood dreams? You know, the ones that you used to spend all your time wondering and fantasizing about? Have you forgotten them so easily? Have you forgotten what it felt like to see something for the first time, to see the magic in the mundane? Everyone says you should take the time to 'Stop and smell the roses'. But you should also take the time to look for the fairies, embrace the wind and enjoy the rain. Just once today, stop for a moment and look into that little piece of nature you pass everyday. Perhaps you may see something you did not notice before.

You have them weighing in, without the shielding, at forty-three tons. One ton is roughly 2,000 pounds. Being able to lift twice its weight would be lifting 86 tons, or 172,000 pounds.

That's still pretty damn heavy. But, with its intended use, I suppose there's nothing inherently wrong about it.

Tentatively approved.

Stasis field - The Stasis field is a wonderful technology, based on the stasis device used for harvesting entire suns as a fuel source. Now it has been renovated for expeditions into the newly discovered Vaccus system, since the ADF noticed a large number of black holes. This field causes whatever is inside the field to be removed from the time line, but not from space. The drawback is the enormous power cost, only ship able to use it is the Omega, the ADF's Titan, as the fucking SHIP RUNS ON THREE SUNS. 8D

My argument for this.

Quote
NekoHikaruChan 9:19 pm
(9:19:12 PM):     I vote no time devices or spells cept temp freezing or slowing/speeding. Unless it's a natural occurance like black holes and planets. Throwing time into it will make it overly unfair.
kivith 9:19 pm
(9:19:26 PM):     Why? Because you don't have a baby?
(9:19:44 PM):     Cept this just makes it outside Time, meaning it isn't affected by Time, but still in space.
NekoHikaruChan 9:19 pm
(9:19:48 PM):     Except the stuff we obviously can't control. Mokai's time trips. And the Twilight crap.
kivith 9:19 pm
(9:19:56 PM):     meaning affected by shit like a laser.
(9:20:31 PM):     This isn't traveling back in Time.
(9:20:46 PM):     This is just removal from Time, meaning Time is no longer a factor, but space is.
NekoHikaruChan 9:21 pm
(9:21:00 PM):     You throw time into it and you'll have to come up with a suitable theory like dimensions so the whole board understands it. Except then, everyone is going to throw in theories and it's going to be a mess. Time = Bad.
kivith 9:21 pm
(9:21:04 PM):     Like if the Omega got shot by a rocket while in the field, the rocket would still blow up.
(9:21:12 PM):     Yeah.
(9:21:18 PM):     Then don't bring in shit that affects time.
kivith 9:21 pm
(9:21:27 PM):     Might as well bring in Alternate Universe Hikaru.
NekoHikaruChan 9:21 pm
(9:21:35 PM):     All I did was bring in black holes natural time affect.
kivith 9:21 pm
(9:21:43 PM):     Which affects time.
(9:21:51 PM):     And therefore needs ways to be reversed.
(9:21:55 PM):     Otherwise it's an absolute.
(9:22:00 PM):     And nothing should be an absolute.
NekoHikaruChan 9:22 pm
(9:22:46 PM):     Atrus is the only one that breaks time and space, since it's frozen in two states of being. The others just slow it down like current black hole theories tell us. There's tons of loopholes without going into time tech.
NekoHikaruChan 9:23 pm
(9:23:28 PM):     And no, I'm not going to tell them except to maybe one person. You and K2 didn't reveal Nyx's loopholes. Let's play the same game.
kivith 9:23 pm
(9:23:30 PM):     And that would be what? A spell that manipulates time?
NekoHikaruChan 9:23 pm
(9:23:39 PM):     No.
kivith 9:23 pm
(9:23:40 PM):     And how is that different then a Time Tech?
NekoHikaruChan 9:24 pm
(9:24:07 PM):     As you said for Nyx. You just can't think of them.

Yes, but it doesn't remove it from Space, meaning it's unaffected by Time, but affected by things still in space. Meaning that if the Omega was in the field, and it got shot at, it would still be hurt, since it's still in space.

Immortality inoculations - After the recent discovery of Lesh's water artifact it was revealed that it was nothing more then a vase, a vase that imbues all liquids that enter it with the power to stop an organic being from aging, and changes the organic being's age back to it's prime, physically anyway. One problem, the imbued liquid only gives temporary immortality, therefore after a certain amount of time the effect will wear off. So, if a man drank the liquid since he was twenty until he was seventy, then stopped, once the effect wore off he'd become an old man. But if he drank it once again he'd turn back into a twenty year old. The Archive has begun to use the vase and inoculate it's member to give them immortality, this means that unless killed by an enemy or an illness, an agent of the Archive will not die. Due to the very magical effect of the inoculation AM fields do not affect it, since it is a spell that has already been cast. It is only used on high ranking agents, as both an incentive to raise up in rank, and an award to those already up there.


One fluid ounce injection = Seventeen days, thirteen hours, four minutes, and thirty-eight seconds.
All agents carry a total of two extra injections.


Ten fluid ingested = One-hundred and seventy-one days, twenty-two hours, and eight seconds.
All outposts and ships carry a large amount of effected water to give out to it's high ranking agents.

Being magic users, one would think they'd have other, easier methods of attaining limited immortality. Approved nonetheless.

Non-magic immortals ftw.

Warp cannon - This weapon warps Space itself, it's a far to large to fit onto anything smaller then a planet or a Titan class vessel. It is quite similar to a rail-cannon except it does not use super-powered magnets to propel chunks of metal at the speed of light, instead it warps the Space at the end of the barrel to become less then there is at the beginning of the barrel, this means that Space itself throws the payload FASTER then the speed of light, currently it can only reach up to 1 1/2 the speed of light. This means that a very common chunk of metal could kill a planet, sadly this cannon needs a large amount of time to power up.

It's payloads can vary from Strange Matter bombs, Anti-matter bombs, chunks of metal. etc.

Not Space the area, Space as in Space and Time, think of the space as water, the warp cannon moves the water out of the way at the end of the barrel, then lets go of the water, it rushes back to it's original position with enough force to propel the payload.

The two are the same, aren't they? If not...then what, per say, would space be made of? When thinking of it in terms of Space and Time, Time is time-we know what it is-, and Space is what we are all in, a three-dimensional plane. However, it in itself is not made up of anything-it has things within it, but these things themselves are planets, stars, ect...There isn't anything to 'push' out of the way in the first place.
