New megawepon

Postby Holy Spain » Tue Mar 28, 2023 1:19 pm

Recently, Holy Spanish scientists and engineers have constructed a new mega-weapon that can destroy a planet atom by atom, using powerful lasers with immense force to split atoms and destroy them. (If this isn't actually how like the death star worked let me know.)

The weapon is about the size of a medium-sized planet, and can orbit planets using orbital thrusters. However, it needs to be tugged due to slow speeds.

The weapon charges up energy and released it through powerful lasers and can fire up to 7 shots before needing to recharge. One shot destroys most planets, however some immensely huge may take two. It was fine tuned to be able to destroy multiple planets in a few shots, and has a decent range. It does more damage from closer range, as the weapon's energy wears off as it travels, however it's still extremely effective.

The weapon is known as Starbase Decimator IV, and there are currently *two* that Holy Spain has managed to successfully produce, due to resources, funds, and other issues.

Holy Spain also possesses 6 smaller and weaker versions of this simply known as "Bob"

This weapon can fire 1-2 shots but needs to recharge after. This can destroy a planet usually in one shot, but some may need 2. This is capable of propelling itself and has limited hyperspace technology that allows it to travel relatively short distances quicker.

No. Just no. If you want to bring bullshit power levels like this in to play, the only nations you’re ever RPing with are F7ers. Stop trying to make yourself undefeatable, and try to do some sensible worldbuilding. Remember, for RPing to be fun, you need to be able to fold.

How the hell can you fine tune a laser from destroying a city to multiple galaxies? And if im not wrong (i probably am), concentrating that much energy into a straight line would probably create a massive black hole.

please use them so we have an excuse to invade you

more seriously, nations do not usually just jump straight to blowing up planets. nobody wants to escalate that far. you end up creating many enemies and justifying retaliation. war is bad.

When did I make myself undefeatable? These weapons are expensive and rare. We're still perfectly defeatable and these weapons will most likely never be used anyways unless abolsutely required. It's simply not the style of leadership my leader has

You have 2 multi-Galaxy destroying bombs. These will destroy almost every other FT, fuck it, FFT nation in existence. This is chronic godmodding of the highest order. Take our advice; and slim down your ego enough to not try and make yourself undefeatable. This is “over a number” all over again

You probably should explain it. Also don’t call it a laser if it isn’t, im not gonna call a nuke a grenade because i dont know how a nuke works.

Ah, so it’s bullshit. It’s literally just bullshit. You cannot just “ha lol, I have dumb stupid big weapon with funny science word”. If I can do it (and I’m the same age as you), you can too. At least try and nick something from Star Wars.

I would rather have him copy the Death Star atom by atom than whatever this thing is.

Plus it would be cool to say you have a Death Star :D

Look, I’m not telling you that you can’t do anything, I’m saying you can’t do the ridiculous “I have a multiverse plus Galaxy killers”. A death star is something most FT nations possess. As I say, ask someone more experienced like Kyrusia for help on worldbuilding, I just don’t want to have to deal with the few FR RPs there are having blatant OP stuff.

Could I make something like a mega-death star that like no one actually possesses yet, it'll be like the thing that destroyed the New Republic in the sequels, whatever its called.

I'm asking you to see if it's too powerful. You've helped me a lot.

Again, i don’t understand how you can fine tune a weapon from barely destroying a building to destroying an entire planetary body and its satellites. Also the bomb escalates really quickly, it goes from destroying a city to destroying a lot of the planet in only one level.

Yes, a star killer base would be perfectly plausible, as long as you don’t constantly use it in RPs. Most FT RPers are fine with a planet devastated here or there, but destroying a system is usually a show of force of some kind. If I were to make recommendations, I’d suggest you snatch a few bits from Star Wars, ships and all.

Something like a handful of death stars (which can all destroy anything from a city to a planet anyways), and 1 or 2 star killers.

eehh maybe if you’re doing soft sci fi? but we’re talking further future than what most nations roleplay as. and it wouldn’t function anything like in the movies. you’d fire and then you’d have to wait hundreds of years and hope you don’t change your mind and you got your measurements down perfectly.
