Honestly I cba to dig through 5,000 pages of II to find the OOC thread.

I remember it being something absurd though, unless that was just views.

e: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=17969

It's actually not that long, but 50 pages is a bit for an II thread.

*Has a bit of a nostalgia moment, since i'm in that thread, along with several other good players that haven't been on NS in a long time*

They're actually in competition with Smoke On The Water for longest II thread yet, starting with the opening battle of the coming war. Expect battles with wind, snow, rain, and heat as mail couriers brave the elements to deliver letters of lost love and forsaken hopes to service family members around page 67. One particularly emotional moment will be when the commanding general of the Samozian Army receives a damning Dear John letter from his wife of 37 years.

I'm totally referencing this when Samoz and I eventually throw down.

And Samoz uses the -iy suffix, so Samozniy and/or Samozny are the proper spellings.

Well, you don't say "American" do you? You say "USian".

How can I make these more realistic?

In other words, your idea has once again entirely missed the goalposts. You might want to go check out the Screw Realism guys, they'd love your concepts.

[The Akasha Colony]

I don't think those airships are remotely possible beyond the realm of science fiction. The weight of the weaponry and ammo and the whole plane-carrying capacity doesn't seem possible except on lolheug ships that are more of a target to kill than a regular carrier.

Actually, as long as the lift is greater than the weight, they will be fine.

Except that unless those guns are made of cardboard, the lifting strength of the gas will not be greater than the weight of all that equipment.

I've got a nations full of anthropomorfic animals and Exo armor. And Dragomere makes me look more real than the world it's self

I have anthropomorphic vehicles, nations, fucking feelings, etc.
I'm a member of screw realism, and I don't approve.

[Dragomere]

You all apparently to not know its size.

[Krazakistan]

Dat grammar tho.

Still not possible.

Are you going to send me $1,000 now, as you broke copyright (I copyrighted and Trade Marked the name "Dragomere").

[Velkanika]

That doesn't matter for this. The technology to actually make that kind of vehicle did not exist in the 50s and still doesn't right now in 2014. There is a reason why you don't see that kind of vehicle outside of 20s pulp fiction.

And post the Trade Mark documentation, it's public record if you paid the fee anyways.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office has no electronic records for the term 'Dragomere.' I just checked.

You really bothered to trademark the name "Dragomere"?

FYI people make "Wal-Mart" and "Starbucks" memes all the time and get away with it...

Actually they had the capability to build it in the 1930's and definitely in the 1940's, but they decided to focus their work on developing more and newer planes than airships, as planes are faster and would be less of a target than a airship.

A scathing rebuttal from Mat.

How will "Dragomere" respond to such biting remarks? o:

Highly doubt that still. Look at the cargo area of a blimp then get back to us.

1) Do you have a source?

2) If you just admitted why your idea would fail compared to planes, ASSUMING it was physically possible, why would you want it anyways?

it could fit my stuff in it reasonably. Also, I am not stupid, I would be using aluminum, not iron to build them.

Don't worry about it, even if he did waste his money on it we're covered under Fair Use.

Alright, you got any reference design documents for some kind of zeppelin or other airship even remotely capable of lifting that kind of weight at those speeds? Any preliminary design work even?

[Mitheldalond]

I think RPing a single engagement over a series of posts is the worst idea in RP history.

:c

Moar! Moar! That was awesome

Erase them from existence.

Actually, as long as the lift is greater than the weight, they will be fine.

Except that unless those guns are made of cardboard, the lifting strength of the gas will not be greater than the weight of all that equipment.

He has them suspended from mobile satellites. I thought that was obvious...
