I tend to be more of a "let the RP posts put up my canon stuff" kind. That is so I don't have to think up of specs in one go when I can just RP it out. From there I can reference.

[Excidium Planetis]

Tinfect, I am afraid that for our own safety we have to destroy your planet cracker. It will literally destroy the whole star system, and probably neighboring ones too.

Sustained 360 degree energy expansion for hundreds of millions of miles?

Actually, supernova do it.

But I was in error, Tinfect's Planetcracker only deals out 1.12344x10^26 Joules, while Supernovas can be up to 10^44 Joules... quintillion times more powerful. No wonder our nation fears them.

Nevermind not dropping a Zero.
But, if you insist on destroying our Planetcracker, we will fire on your Ships. A Rassvet Class Dreadnought is not to be trifled with, and the Enclave II is able to defend itself, marginally well, at least.

Let me just deploy my Organic Planet Destroyer.

No, that is not what i am talking about. I am forcing a positive charge into a container of neutrally charged hydrogen, Once charged the hydrogen will expand, causing the container to discharge, but not as an explosion, more like a liter bottle of diet coke and mentos. That effect spraying the super heated plasma on to the ship would let the plasma just melt through the armor with ease. I am not basing this off bombs, but off the effect hydrogen has when charged.this is somethign i might actually use in a number of interesting designs, magnetic plasma mines and even a plasma shield if i used it right, at a negative charge for the shield though, to give it protective properties against energy weapons.

Perhaps later on in cannon my nation can use controlled magnetic fields to generate something similar to a light saber, A Plasma Blade?

1) Unfortunately Wikipedia is not working for me right now, so I cannot verify if such a weapon actually exists or is plausible. Nevertheless, I doubt it would work on Aeiouia's Contigo ships, most likely the plasma will cool from heating the armor long before it melts 200 meters down.
2) Sadly, any plasma weapon hot enough to work like a lightsaber would be better mailed to your enemies as a gift: the heat will likely kill the wielder.

The Wiki was not for a weapon but for Plasma in general, just a basic veiw of heat ranges, types of plasma ect.

The Plasma Blade would be a much lower intensity then the temp of the sun XD, maybe a couple hundred degrees. The heat would not radiate due to it being plasmatic heat, it would remain attached to the plasma source. Like an electrical wire, you don't feel it unless your damn near touching it. But the way you worded that, "Plasma Weapon." Would any one in this RP be against me adding Plasma Capacitors to my Semi Conventional Shells?

There is no such thing as "plasmatic heat", only regular heat, plasma has no special properties other than being a electron sea gas thing.

It will irradiate and convect into the environment, entropy must increase for every action and this is no exception. You should also note that adding a plasma generating thing will not do much that a proper nuclear shell could not do, and would probably be less effective than just letting your shells turn to plasma the old fashioned way, having them impact the enemy ship at mega fuckhuge speeds, such as those you might find in orbit.

[Atomic Utopia]

So is the space force on force sim up yet, because I am thinking of joining in on the fun with a small fleet. I will join BLUFOR assuming it is still open.

Number and Type of Units
1x Avagradro Class Battlecruiser

20x Karl Marx Class Superheavy Destroyers

---

Battle Groups

Section Charlie (command):
1x Avogadro Class Battlecruiser
3x Karl Marx Class Superheavy Destroyers

Section Delta (forward):
6x Karl Marx Class Superheavy Destroyers

Section Echo (general attack):
8x Karl Marx Class Superheavy Destroyers

Section Foxtrot (rear):
3x Karl Marx Class Superheavy Destroyers

---

(I know my fleet is lacking in variety, but I have not set up the factbook entries for all of the other ships yet)

Now into spess, for socialisim and nuclear energy!

[Singaporean Transhumans]

Let me just deploy my Organic Planet Destroyer.

Let me just deploy my Pistol of Armageddon.

[Aeiouia]

If you deploy it, I could deploy our planet-eating Military Overseer to counter it.

Nevermind not dropping a Zero.

Our ships would probably also support the defending Tinfect fleet as meat-shields... Or.. Well. Exotic Matter Shields and Energy Shield Shields. But, you get the idea.

Its been that way for a few days really, we need more diplomacy! Molotov, get me more (in dramatic voice)diplomacy.

Did someone say...
Ribbentrop?

[Deminis]

So i am looking for some low tech weapons that can still be effective in the upcoming Sim. Other than plasma weapons, i am drawing blanks, Any one have any suggestions for something that my nation would be able to develop?

Nuclear weapons are always a good one. Effective, well developed (75 years old), and cheap, they are a good idea for anyone who wants their enemy gone.

No, I said food drops for starving civilians.

But if you want a pact with the devil us we might be able to work something out on that Ringworld 256 thread.

Would you say an Ivy King sized unit would be good? 2,100 TJ, mounted on a small but fast rocket? More VASMIR maybe XD

That would be a good idea, however at the speeds/distances we are dealing with a NTR would be lighter and have a faster acceleration. I would also recommend it be a cluster of nuclear bombs that separate with chaff when they get close to the target as to confuse point defense. So W80 sized warheads in multiple units that separate before impact would be a good idea.

That would be perfect, however at the speeds/distances we are dealing with a NTR would be lighter and have a faster acceleration. I would also recommend it be a cluster of nuclear bombs that separate with chaff when they get close to the target as to confuse point defense. So W80 sized warheads in multiple units that separate before impact would be a good idea.

What about a few of these smaller nukes, Ten maybe, And then One Uber nuke to be carried in my Main Battle Cruiser?
Say a Tsar grade Nuke?

Nah, large numbers of small nuclear bombs are more likely to get through to the target and you do get deminishing returns with yield. In other words, a 50 Mt nuclear bomb will only kill one ship because spaceships do not move within 1000 or so kilometers of each-other as there is plenty of space in space. Nonetheless it will weigh a thousand times more. Big nukes are only really good when removing ground targets because they are clustered. Space targets, not so much.

Yeah i kind of figured, Besides a Tsar would bring a ton of mass on my ship XD. But another question, concerning my thrusters, Would having multiple thrusters increase my Delta-V And if so would each thruster add the same, or would it be ratio of the acceleration added?

More engines adds redundancy and a bit greater acceleration, however more engines will not increase acceleration as much as having a bigger engine will, but one big engine does not add redundancy. Both will add mass, reducing Delta-V with the same fuel tank size, thus reducing the speed it will be able to reach once it uses up all of it's fuel.
