Re: [RP] Operation: Deep Strike (OOC)

lol, don't push yourself too hard icekatze, I'm eager to get going but there's no need for you to burn yourself out. I'm happy to wait a while longer.

Not too long though :twisted: :lol:

Nice NPC's btw...

Also: Hooray, I'm the supply clerk! Double rum rations for all! ;)

Re: [RP] Operation: Deep Strike (OOC)

To quote the FTL Tech & Tactics page: There is a flash of light that is proportional to the mass of the ship. It also says you exit hyperspace at the same velocity you entered it. It does not say that velocity alters the intensity of the flash of light, however. It seems to me that as long as there'...

Re: [RP] Operation: Deep Strike (OOC)

Ok, I did some (potentially very bad) maths about this... 1 day's accel at 6.5G (ie. 63.7m/s per second for 86,399.999999931 seconds...I used 86,400 for simplicity's sake ;) ) Will get you up to roughly 0.01835% of light speed. Or 5,503,679.99 m/s. During the day of acceleration you will have travel...

Edited Donna's profile a little. Just some tweaks to her Gear + a few new questions/notes at the bottom of the post.

Re: page 83

but I'm wondering about the Umiak plan, their right in position to get the Bell ( little red spot). so is stillstorm right and their going to tow the bell away. I'm asking because tactics aren't be forte. I figured the only reason to break the line is to A) lure the loroi into another ambush or B) ...

Re: Concept Fanart of Future Terran Ship Designs

If I remember right, there has been real life test for use electricity to repulse small particles. A powerful electromagnetic field could repel charged particles from the sun and other stars etc, just like the Earth's field does. I don't know if this would be very effective in repelling other stuff...

Re: page 83

Looks like the Umiak ship was firing it's main weapons until the end. Is it using its primaries as last-ditch PD or trying to get a last few hits on the Loroi?

Re: [RP] Tempest Expedition (OOC)

Right, Major Wolfe is more or less complete...while I might be adding greater detail as time and inspiration permit, there won't be any significant alterations. I don't know if I should have him involved in the current IC scene, he certainly wouldn't have anything meaningful to add to it. A sarcasti...

Re: [RP] Tempest Expedition (OOC)

Your new skills are small craft operation and maintenance? Though I guess one could consider Aerospace tactics a new skill too :P I have no problem with your skill set, they're very reasonable and something one would expect to find aboard the Tempest . Your secret is a tad bit wussy though :P I did...

Hi, TU here. With some (much appreciated :) ) help from Sunphoenix and Martenzo I've finished creating my first character. Since this is my first RP in this style it'll probably be my only character...for now. As you will probably notice I created two skills of my own, if anybody does not want me to...

Re: Concept Fanart of Future Terran Ship Designs

the only 'part of the war effort' humans would bring, would either be as prostitutes or ground pounders, the one most certainly not excluding the other. oh, and a supply base on the flank. I have to disagree there. My knowedge of this comic's universe may be far from complete but from what I've see...

Re: Speculative Science Fiction on the Web

I've read a lot of the books listed already...I've read Elizabeth Moon, Iain M Banks, and Alistair Reynold's series multiple times. If for no other reason I'd love The Culture just for their ship names ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ships_(The_Culture) I also read the Honor Harrington novel...
