I think the key word in Inesea's sentence was "Basically".

Don't matter

No I mean you consider airships with armor on it the latest?

Inesea: The post on the war will come up later tonight.

YES!

Sri, Khamul has ALOT of catching up to do. H-V-A flight is just becomming standardized in the MODERN world. Armored Airships are not that old.

[Inoroth]

@Sri - Airplanes, at this point, are gonna look something like this, or if you push it, like this. Airplanes are not (yet) able to easily defeat airships, though in a few years, when these, these, and these take to the skies, Airships will probably be out matched.

[Sri Tschow]

Once more threatening aircraft come out, then I'll begin developing proper airship-borne deterrents, as airships are-and will remain- an integral part of my Air Force.

I'm imagining land-aircraft-carriers.

[Inoroth]

@Mish - I know there will be airship aircraft carriers, and i suppose land carriers are also conceivable.

@Sri - Then, if we ever go to war, it will be a simple matter of attrition, for the costs of building an airship (especially an airship with decent anti-wwii style aircraft defenses) will probably build one about ten to twenty airplanes... and even battleships had trouble with air-raids of that magnitude. Even if, say, we lose 5-10 aiplanes for every airship destroyed, we cost our foe half of what it costs us. And when I say 'our foe', I mean anyone using airships against Inoroth, not you specifically.

@Everyone - Also, I have been mulling over in my mind the thought of creating a sort of international, non-governmental force organized to defeat the evils of the Khamulite death camps in the Sri-AMEN War... Kinda like the French Foreign Legion. It would be created around the start of this war, would accept members from any nation, and would move against Khamul to liberate the camps. I want to make it because Inoroth as a nation would remain neutral in almost any eventuality in that conflict, but I do ever-so-much wish to join in the RP fun, and this provides me with that opportunity (along with anyone else who wants to be involved but their official governmental policy won't allow it). Basically, it would be an individual RP for anyone who wanted to join. What do ya'll think?

1904 Coastal Defense Rifle

Mish, ~snip~.

Wait... thats the gun (well, 4 of them) type being fired at the Armageddon?
I could have sworn you said something in the 200mm range.. Ahh yes "238 Long Range Artillery Pieces", im assuming now the 238 did not mean 238mm (9.37inch) guns? Which would be these.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_cm_Kanone_3

**Edit, the Mark 2 Paris Gun was also 238mm**

[Sri Tschow]

I approve.

The latest aspect is that it's an airship that is viable to use in combat.

Just remember that no matter what you do, the camps will be liberated. Fighting to liberate them will just get a lot of people killed. The end result would be the same, just with more bodies.

[Inoroth]

@Khamul - But Khamul, that's OOC knowledge... IC people don't know this (or perhaps don't trust it if they do).

@Nov - yeah, the gun in the link was 15 inches. 15 inches = 381 mm... almost double 238, though honestly the calculation is velocity x mass, so a smaller projectile with the same mass traveling at the same speed would be more devestating. And I am still waiting on your armor reports for my calculations, good sir

@Sri - You aprove of...?

[Sri Tschow]

Your proposal for the French Foreign Legion.

This was a typo on my part. Those guns are static Internal Bay Defense Guns. The Rail Fortresses use 238mm slightky modified Paris Guns. I forgot to put 238mm in he post.

[Inoroth]

@Sri - Well of course you would, you're already in the war and the Legion would come in on your side . I was just wondering if people who are not currently involved in the conflict but wish to be (Fan, Wirble, Servoth, Vijay, Vitz, Dal, and so on) were interested.

@Inesea - ok, so what are the rail guns like?

[Servoth]

GO FOR IT! WOOOOOO. Seriously.

[Inoroth]

Alright! One interest vote! I'll get on it tomorrow!

EDIT* Antidotal Moment:

Q: Where does a General keep his armies?

Up his sleeveies

The Guns(LRAGs) are Rail Mobile, but require a stopped train to fire. Other rail guns are most likely Rail Mobile Big Berthas or such.

[Sri Tschow]

I do hope Amplector doesn't use this as an opportunity to gain a foot... naw they wouldn't.

[Itailian Maifias]

@Ino, Averi would be up for a Foreign Legion. It could use it to get some of it's soldiers some experience outside of fighting bandits every spring.

So, If Inesean Airships and Inesean Troops were near the camps, would you want Rothian Soldiers found near there?

[Pavlostani]

Inesea and I have decided that at the end of fall, he will have his territory encompass mine. That way, it would dissuade hostile force from attacking my camps, like I'm sure you all want to do,

Say what? Inesea is dissolving into Khamul? So I'll be doing cooperation projects with...Inemul? Idk...

[Inoroth]

@Inesea - I'm looking for projectile mass, caliber, and velocity of the guns/projectiles. Also, I didn't understand you question regarding Rothian Troops... was that to imply that the Legion would be attacked if they did anything? Cause if so, that comes with the territory.

@Sri - Yeah, that'd never happen...

@Averi - Two Votes! Now I am definitely making it!

@Khamul - What the Heck? Inesea and Khamul assimilate, or that Inesea's territory wraps around yours... cause if the latter, there's always the sea, my friend, there's always the sea...

He forgot to say in V-Land, pending my retention of Onheath, which I DO Intend to keep.

EDIT: Which are patrolled by Menya
