I've got to weigh in here guys.. .What? shooting planets? one should not have the power to shoot planets at a whim, that's beyond mind numbing. However one could turn a planet in to a "free planet" , with the right tech (my people have muddled with that idea) but its... Complicated (lensman reference).

@Kisia, TFU

Without using a 'mass effect relay' to jettison the planet around, why not attach a hyperspace to a planet and it could be a moving home/fortress ... it would take maybe a long time, but West-Tek Research could always help kisian contractors ... (This idea was taken from the yuuzhan vong in the star wars galaxy)


You'll have to forgive me for reiterating TFU's comment here, but...

What in the fuck?

Are you telling me you're tired of making large chunks of metal filled with people move faster than light, so now it's time we started doing it with entire friggin' planets? Are you absolutely mental?!

Just build a Death Star and cover all the exhaust ports with planks of wood. Problem solved.



Covering the exhaust ports with planks of wood would either cause said planks to catch afire and burn away or build up heat in the Death Star and thus frying everyone inside into nice human pasta.

Excuse me for keeping this up, but I believe you already did, when you sided with Steppe during the war.

let me rephrase that. I'm smart enough to not pick a fight with the JSA Again.

Also, a note, I am not trying to mock you, Ozymos. Just a little joke pointing out the likelihood of that idea working.

But FTL missiles, ships, and planets are a BAD idea.

If I have to explain why, I will.

Edit: You are forgetting Ozymos, the Death Star worked by the power of plot. Trying to figure out ways to make it work are really a futile exercise. Not to mention, building a Death Star took a galaxy's worth of resources. I don't know about you, but I don't have an entire galaxy to suction funds and resources from to build the damn thing.

I know. I have now, however, solved the main problem of the Death Star. If only Vader had used butterfly valves, his plans for galactic domination wouldn't have been scuppered by the plucky alliance!

I find Vader's lack of sense to use a good building contractor disturbing. Imaging the excess on insurance when it came to checking the Death Star for potential hazards.
