IO, outside of Adivan, his muscle and Prius, the boarding party is yours. Have fun!

Four daemons from the walls, IO. Make it colorful.

Quick question... 'there is no fate but what we make' and all, but should either or both vessels smack into the star fort at high speed, what do ya'll think will happen? Anything that hits that monstrosity will be a write-off, of course, but the station itself... think it could survive that kind of impact?

The Ramiles class dwarfs a battleship. It counts as five seperate sections in BFG(all other ships and stations count as just one AFAIK). Getting rammed by an escort class vessel will damage one section.

Okay, cool.

I had planned on the cultists just petering out, but a daemon charge is cool.

YB, PM.

Gotta go for a bit or longer, IO, PM.

Hopefully back soon.

And very lightly at that. This may be an archaeotech escort, but all that means is that it has an outside chance of damaging the fort due to a higher speed and possibly a reactor overload. A standard escort ramming that station would do precisely fuck all, even with the station powered down.

Since its fighting to get out of orbit and dragging Pater's ship as well, it is going to do even less damage, even if it has an armoured prow. It might breach the hull and kill hundreds, but compared to how massive the Ramiles is, it won't do much.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 12:37am

Okay, back.

Well damn, the menace is much less menacing than I hoped. I had figured on the lack of velocity due to escaping the gravity well, but I had assumed that a high speed collision would be a highly unpleasant and/or threatening event for the station.

More threatening that 'Oops, five hundred dead in G-ring.' anyway.

Oh well, live and learn.

I suspect that both me and the Tacticus have the advantage of being familiar with BFG. To Pcm the station might seem merely large, but to someone familiar with BFG knows the station to be a gigantic powerhouse. The sheer size is awesome.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 12:56am

Yeah, my experience with BFG is limited to reading the online content and the two Rennie novels.

Had a minor family crisis, missing family member that I had to go hunt down. But I'm in rocking form again.

It was either help save Gix or help kill the Psy king

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 02:02am

At some point the arbites will report discovering a helm and a sword in amidst the wreckage, extremely potent artefacts of some sort.

Sister Lillith is read y to be used in the space battle.

The finate power of LEGION, means that one way or another after fighting the psi-king, he's dead.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-22 02:07am

Wrong thread YB.

Typhonis 1 · Post by **Typhonis 1** » 2004-12-22 02:21am

you don`t need energy to launch torpedoes......

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 02:22am

Uh guys, there's a smoking crater where LEGION and the PsyKing used to be.

Typhonis 1 · Post by **Typhonis 1** » 2004-12-22 02:24am

All the easier to find them .By the way Nathan will be going over Prius,s notes on the Arbites

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-22 02:31am

Yes, there's damage but we don't know that either one is dead. The PsyKing is damn strong. Gix wants to make sure he's dead.

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 02:44am

Esarharden... what a thought.

*tosses copy of Malleus over shoulder*

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Imperial Overlord · Post by **Imperial Overlord** » 2004-12-22 02:45am

I just happen to be rereading that part earlier today. Coincidence?

Petrosjko · Post by **Petrosjko** » 2004-12-22 02:48am

There are no such thing as coincidences, Inquisitor. Didn't Kyra teach you better than that?
