Fine, let his admiral think whatever the hell he wants to.

Darksider · Post by **Darksider** » 2004-09-16 03:54pm

Ok, it's one hour there and one hour back to the dead system from the edge of UP space.

Plus, The Task force was reinforced, so they needed to wait for them to arrive.

What makes you think his probes would be anywhere near my fleet while their engines were still active?

Do you think the reaction mass is going to magically vanish? Even the bumblers of Trek(whose tech level we are on) can track an old particle trail.

God, I can't read STGOD1. I played it depressingly stupidly.

I'm back, what did I miss?

No you didn't. It as a n00b game for all of us but you played pretty darn good.

I've just updated my OOB to include the empire's static defenses

Also, the Cannons on the battlestations are capital scale, so they can one-hit cruisers

Post by **Alyrium Denryle** » 2004-09-16 05:52pm

How about... NO darksider. NOONE has that much firepower over their worlds. I only have 6 actual battlestations around my homeworld. ANd each of those is destroyer MAYBE frigate power(they should be DN, but game mechanics doesnt permit it)

Agent Fisher · Post by **Agent Fisher** » 2004-09-16 05:54pm

I added in my main military base into my OOB.

before you tell me it is too powerful or needs to be scaled back remember, it is the only thing there, except for ships.

Fine, count the cannons as cruiser level. (Roughly one-fourth as powerful)

Unless you're devoting part of your fleet strength to static defenses, the losses taken when invading will be minimal. I don't care if you post the guns being Dreadnought level or Death Star level. If no fleet is there, it will be overrun without reinforcement.

I remember a certain someone performing a Spec Ops raid on a police station to capture supposed criminals. Boy golly gee whiz was he an idiot!

I know.
The damnd things aren't designed to single handedly hold of a fleet, just work with mobile defenders and do as much damage as possible

Darksider · Post by **Darksider** » 2004-09-16 07:32pm

Um, Tycho?

About those reinforcements you sent to back me up.

Exactly where the hell are they?

Agent Fisher · Post by **Agent Fisher** » 2004-09-16 08:46pm

Just posted my first contact post, not with anyone yet but it set the stage.

oh, and I knew where people are from a NAV database that my forces got from the pirates

fair enough. I will see if I can give you some attention, since my nation is not currently involved in hostilities.

it may take awhile for me to begin contact.

the intel part of my government sent out prowlers first to prowl

frigidmagi · Post by **frigidmagi** » 2004-09-16 09:13pm

Before anyone gets touchy I cleared the post with Marcoa first, I went far enough to PM him a copy of the post.

It is my full intention to check with 2nd parties before I make such moves to avoid any wankery.

Agent Fisher · Post by **Agent Fisher** » 2004-09-16 09:15pm

just had an idea of how to introduce my people, one of my FireGroups( four STACKER destroyers) might just stumble onto UNITY station

probably unlikely gven the way the map looks right now. The only large open spot in Known space at the moment where it might be reasonable for your power to sit undiscovered is the upper left section of the circle.

Agent Fisher · Post by **Agent Fisher** » 2004-09-16 09:37pm

well, where is unity station

Straha · Post by **Straha** » 2004-09-16 10:21pm

Roughly on the Border of the Draconis republic.

Also showing up there will be very... unwise considering there's a major war being fought across this very border, and this planet's history of conflict.

Agent Fisher · Post by **Agent Fisher** » 2004-09-16 11:39pm

who owns earth and how would they react to four of my warships showing up?

That'd be Straha, and since he's an ass, he'd likely shoot them out of the void.
