The Rimworld Wars (OOC/FT/Closed)

[New Zacharia]

Given how large your ships are Scroobland, your suicide mission probably dwarfs my entire navy. I suppose at least that should make them rather easy targets.

As long as the stealth ship isn't to OP

While stealthed, it is completely invisible to all forms of detection, except perhaps interuniversal scanning. It is also unreachable by all slower than light weapons systems.

This comes at the cost of being literally blind while stealthed and unable to fire weapons.

Well I do have a super secret way of detecting stealth ships that you haven't thought about.

While stealthed, it is completely invisible to all forms of detection, except perhaps interuniversal scanning. It is also unreachable by all slower than light weapons systems.

This comes at the cost of being literally blind while stealthed and unable to fire weapons.

So any light-based energy weapons would, technically, strike it, if somehow one had incredibly convenient interuniversal scanning systems?

Er... no.

I suppose I should have said "slower than light and lightspeed weapons".

The way it works is a modified warp drive that folds space completely around the ship. This redirects all light and matter around the ship (which is essentially in a "hole" in the universe), allowing perfect stealth (except to sensors which can go out of the universe, which would then be able to enter the hole).

The downside is the ship is now blind, as no light or matter from the universe can enter the hole the ship is in, it has no way to see what's going on. It also has no way to fire out of the hole, so it has to enter back into the universe to shoot at things.

Faster than light weapons can theoretically hit the ship, if they warp space to move at FTL speeds, because it would potentially allow them to deform the warp bubble around the stealth ship.

And what would that be?

[United Islands of Polis]

Can we have reinforcements come in only to resupply what you lost to their original numbers

ex. 20,000 soldiers (Original number)
18,000 soldiers died (Leaves 2,000)
Reinforcements bring 18,000 to bring back to 20,000

Is this allowed?

Oh no never mind, going into a warp bubble, not going to be able to detect you.

so hows is everyone?

Treat them all as if they are one tenth of the size stated, they aren't each 50Km long.

Maybe they are 50 kilometers long and ten meters wide?

Think that if we can always resuply our troops, the RP will never finish.

But some reinforcements I believe could be accetped, but always under certain conditios, like: The reinforced unit must be not engaged in combat, not in the frontline, and not in a hostile planet. You can only resuply your numbers in a friendly planet/space free of combats

I agree on this.

Lol xD

Well, that definitely clarifies.

So does that mean it has intermediary levels of stealth i.e. just a visual cloak, or gravitational/emissions dampeners?

I'm not trying to find the way to kill it, btw, just curious.

[The Dominion of Black Sun]

Sorry four the double-post, but would it be fine if I had reinforcements set aside? It would only add twenty or so ships, but they would in essence mostly-all be more battle-orientated.

[The Landfish Colonies]

I just wanted to let you all know that I don't know how active I'll be in the next 2 days. I'm going to do a basic training course for the Army Reserves. I might be able to post tommorrow evening but I won't make any promises

Are you perhaps from Switzerland, norway or finland? This ones are the only countries I know they do this tipe of training courses

Ok, we will wait your arrival for the Nova Rimworld urban warfare!!

Canada. We offer day courses for highschool students interested in the army, and that's what I'm doing now.

That fleet I mentioned? It takes two days in FTL to get there.

It was merely an example, I was not speaking about no one in particular. As far as i remember, your reinforcement is small, but Landfish is the one who must accept that reinforcements. However, I personaly believe is too early to call reinforcements when no one still had casualities

Thet were accepted and I'm putting them outside the system so they'll be there when she needs them. With all the mechnical forces nearby, she will.

[Nazeroth]

Vogega prepare to be annihilated from orbit and overwhelmed...you just tried setting up shop on shah, a world where my forces have already occupied along with its moon Caliph.

When i get a chance to respond i will, god help those poor souls you brought into my hands.

[Aclus]

just so you guys know, and won't just take Dumpster easily and stuff. Dumpster is under control of the Rimworld Alliance and the Aclusian Republic.

[Novum Alexandria]

just so you guys know, and won't just take Dumpster easily and stuff. Dumpster is under control of the Rimworld Alliance and the Aclusian Republic.

The entirety of my forces are present on the north pole of Dumpster. It is contested, not controlled, and now that I'm thinking about it, your starships are going to be assaulted by planetary defense weapons if they don't steer clear of paths coinciding with the north pole's airspace (orbital space?). The severe lack of atmosphere lends a great degree of power to the DEWs the Alexandrians have constructed on Dumpster's surface.

Edit: And it has been this way since my first post, in-case there were misconceptions about my deployment magically slipping past your defense screen.

Imagine it as the ship teleporting to another universe, and then popping back in when it needs to. It doesn't actually do this, but it is essentially what it does.

My forces have been at Dumpster since the first RP of the rimworld war.
