Into the Void (FT/Nation/OOC/Closed)

[Anowa]

Yep.

Seconded.

Thirded.

Please shrink that image.

Interesting. Although for imperial designs, do they suffer from the same weakness as forward-firing designs, with most guns pointed towards the tip of the arrow, as well as the shape with more surface area facing the front than the rear ?

*Weakness*, in this sense that Rebel ships like the Mon-Calamansi ships being about to put out a balanced array of fire on a near 360-degree field of fire.

I replace a lot of the "phantom" weapons which are not visible on the images with similarly invisible turreted weapons in the side trenches and sides of the superstructure for a wider field, though the heaviest weapons (intended for long-range fighting), the beam lasers, are projected out of the upper superstructure, aiming forward only. Since the shape and sizes are identical, all shape-based problems remain.

However, to compensate for this I slap on even more guns, essentially by duplicating the dorsal weapons on the ventral surface (I also did this with my Yamato ships), so there is indeed an almost complete sphere of fire available, except for the very rear of the ships (the engines and behind the tower). Mass-numbers of all-range handwavium-fuelled macross-spiralling missiles would probably be used to deal with targets there.

Mon-Calamansi? ;P

Large scale invisibility? I'll use nanites to rearrange my hull so it absorbs tons of radar, but full invisibility that size seems a bit ridiculous.

My god, you guys are too used to people trying to sneak in overpowered things =P

I was speaking purely in an OOC form there. Many weapons of the Imperial Star Destroyers are not visible from their models - see how in the movies, lasers and such seem to fire from spots on the hull which have no turrets or any form of firing port - thus making them 'invisible' due to size. If my Senmetsus were armed with the amount of weapons visible on the Imperial Star Destroyer's model, the only weapons they would have would be the turreted turbolasers (560mm railguns on my version). Thus, more weapons are needed, which also cannot be seen on the models, thus also making them 'invisible' - ICly these weapons would of course be visible and targetable, and I even listed them on the wiki page which I linked to in my post.

Seriously. It makes no sense for there to have invisible weapons, since if such technology exists then why not make the whole ship invisible?

Fine. I guess I'm just paranoid with all my experience with people who stuff gigaton scale machineguns on their ships.

You'll find me far more trustworthy than the others in that respect; I enjoy being a lower-tech, underdog-type nation (that can still pull its weight), after all. I don't even have energy shields!

I'm planning to have shields, but only localized ones around certain important areas, such as the engines, the bridge, and certain very useful guns.

[Ella2 6]

So one else want to interact or have a reason to go to the outer arm?

*Waves*

Anyone interested with allying with the Sovereignty? We're a rapidly-growing power in the galaxy.

We are NOT interested in joining a mega-alliance, like the Concordat or the Divine Pact. However, we do want close friends as we make grand expansions in the galaxy. We are not an offensive nation, but we are an expanding nation.

When the divine pact has 3 members and is considered a mega alliance <3

Aye. XD

Considering that you guys cover how much territory in total?

If you can find a reason to come to where I am then that is fine.

Same here! You want to be allies?

[The Moscow Metro Red Line]

For the people at the tech unveiling just telegram me if you are ready to move on. Easier burden for the OOC.

[Ella2 6]

I'm sure we can make some arrangements.

Wow you move quickly! XD

[Zjaum]

Wow you move quickly! XD

Do YOU want to be allies?

@DEA

Did you respond / react to the Star Fleet in Antivarian space ?

I will, once I get back from school.

[Imperial Idaho]

Seconded.

Thirded.

Fourthed.

We're already over this.

[Toishima]

Fourthed.

Enough of this. I have already explained myself, and it was all a misunderstanding caused by paranoia about godmodders and possibly not considering the context of my original post before trying to shoot down a non-existent idea. Nobody is having literal invisible guns ICly, and I am beginning to feel genuinely insulted that so many people believe I am anything less than a respectable RPer.

[Lunas Legion]

I'll be honest, I don't see the point or problem of invisible ship-based weaponry. It's not like anyone's going to actually close to visual range where it might matter,, so...

[Imperial Idaho]

Fourthed.

We're already over this.

I wanted to say fourthed Ok.

I looked at the OOC and was surprised to see that thos argument was being handled the way it was. I think I want to join. Is there anything I should know before I do, such as being limited on what nation tier I can pick (if that's in the OoC already, I apologize. I haven't read it all, yet, and am still going through it)?

Eh, any tier's fine, just stay below lower tier 1.

I just read it, and it said that only Tier 2/early Tier 1 will be used. Maybe you should edit it to reflect this? I was thinking of a hybrid tier nation, but I can't figure out if I'm going to be more or less advanced in certain technological areas, or if it will be a non-tech thing, so I'm just gonna go with a normal nation. Trying to think of a culture. Do you have a Japanese-like, yet?

I honestly wouldn't advise reading it all. Basically, you have to be something other than human, don't go for high tier 1, keep all fuckery about "my nation is stronger" on the discord.

You're suggesting not to read the OOC... where the rules are... and where the applications are... and where the guides to the RP are...

You're fucking serious aren't you.

I thought he was referencing the sixty pages we've got here, not the OP, my bad.
