[The Empire of Pretantia]

… Yes.

There are no pony races for a good reason.

[Slorch]

There are no pony races for a good reason.

and what is that reason?

[The Empire of Pretantia]

There are no pony races for a good reason.

and what is that reason?

Have you ever seen a pony fly a starship?

Bit wary about you calling one class of ship another, but I'll still consider it acceptable. I'll be referring to them as battle carriers in the IC though, for military reasons.

At least when they're talking, I'll be refering to them by Kreed-Class as well, as they are part of of a koalition. On that note, would by standard crusiers & light cruisers also be considered battlecarriers, as 1/3 of their weapons sytems are attack craft?

The what-what plateau? Where's that?

Some place I made up in the Y arm. Has no real meaning.

I'm a bit iffy of your ships being combined factories, transports, cruisers, and carriers. I'll be thinking on it while you polish off the CO app.

For what it's worth, they are also weaker in each of those reguards than a dedicated vessel. Between their hit & run (ie faster, lighter, stealthier) design and that a good chunk is dedicated to non-combat abilities, I typicaly run my cruisers to be about 60% everyone elses. (ie, gets crushed toe-to-toe, can scrape up a win if 2 vs. 1). For non combat, Im assuming the entire combat fleet has the equivilent of 1 factory ship, <1 Naval Construct & Troop and maybe 2-3 standard Colliers.)

If this doesn't work for you, just let me know, I'll find a way to edit.

Just ask yourself something. In this RP there are no take backs. You are stuck with whatever race you pick, no matter what. Are you sure you want to be ponies, little four foot high horses, in a galaxy where your enemy has swords for hands?

If they have a balance of both weapons and strike craft, then they are battlecarriers as defined by the Koalition Navy.

Eh… OK, it passes. I'll just put you back with the dreads and cruisers during pitched battles.

Yes and there not 4ft tall

How tall are they then?

[Slorch]

Yes and there not 4ft tall

How tall are they then?

average human height.

[The Empire of Pretantia]

How tall are they then?

average human height.

…

Are you absolutely sure you want to be ponies?

[Slorch]

average human height.

…

Are you absolutely sure you want to be ponies?

um as of this moment yes

[The Empire of Pretantia]

…

um as of this moment yes

No. As unserious as the intro was, I'd rather not have tiny horses commanding star fleets.

Oh yeah, and ponies are under five feet by most definitions.

[Slorch]

um as of this moment yes

No. As unserious as the intro was, I'd rather not have tiny horses commanding star fleets.

...well you could have told me that before this long back and forth discussion...

It was assumed I didn't need to. It's freaking ponies.

[Slorch]

It was assumed I didn't need to. It's freaking ponies.

... and?

[The Empire of Pretantia]

Oh, and before I forget Bred, I'd like to say that combining fighters, bombers, and shuttles into one craft is impractical. Fighter and bombers I can see, but not shuttles.

It was assumed I didn't need to. It's freaking ponies.

... and?

It's ridiculous.

Other things are implausible, ponies are just ridiculous.
