Imps with access to Trek tech.

Post by Guest »

This occurs after Mike Wong's fanfic. The imps have gained the tech from every ST species in the galaxy. Earth is made the capital of the Milky Way.
The wormhole has been reconnected. The imps are currently interested in trilithium torps, phase cloaks, replicators (for replicating bacta), transporters (for cargo/droids only), and holodecks (for training, as well as some, ummmmmm, recreation :P ). Lameway is sentenced to eternity in the eternal pit in superheated bacta. Popular recreation is slashing the skin off lameway while she moves down through the pit (read the sci fi torture thread http://bbs.stardestroyer.net/viewtopic. ... c&start=30)
then watching it heal and repeat. For those who cannot pay for this, it can be done in trek holodecks. If she dies, then she can be resurrected with trek nanoprobes for the sake of irony. Same may be done for Neelix. Everyone else is granted Imp citizenship. A year later the Vong invade, in large #s, this time both galaxies. What happens?

Well, in NJO-tratior the vong state that the empire would have utterly crushed them in the first engagement. They don't need trek tech... they kick vong ass anyway.

They wouldn't need Trek-tech. The only items the Feds have that would be of any use would probably be replicators, and a few other miscellaneous non-military items.

SW already has replicators, only they're called duplicators.

Hmm lets see...
trilithium torps
Useless, There are FIGHTER mounted multi-gigaton weaponry already, intresting the way an Flintlock rifle is intresting to a modern Gunsmith
phase cloaks
They would probably want these however its Lost Tech, Short of Section 31 having a full blueprint squirled away they can't get this
replicators (for replicating bacta)
They have replicators they are called Duplicators, however they don't have them as small and portable as ST does, though THIERS are 100% spot on while ST has 99.998% spot on

OAN-They can't dupe bacta now because it is a semi-living orignaism that still requires a Thyfeddrean Vecthc in direct superivison no matter who makes it, it still needs one of them, Considering SW Tech, one could probably safly say the making of the miarucle cure bacta has somthing VERY funky about it that they have no reped it already
transporters (for cargo/droids only)
Considering thier hulls it would taken a transport resign before you saw any of these in action,, However they would be perfect for Plantside ops and droid assult craft

and holodecks (for training, as well as some, ummmmmm, recreation)
They HAVE Holo-tech, However they don't have it in the Quality that ST does, Yes I see them being intrested in this

Trilithium isn't mega-giga-anything. Trilithium torpedoes don't go boom, they're supposed to "stop fusion" in a star. However this works, it produces some gigantic shockwave from the star blasting every planet in a system.

It's a star-killer. The one that evil dude used in Generations to get into the eternally orgasmic Nexus.

Why do they want to replicate/duplicate bacta anyway? Why not simply produce it... it's not particularly scarce, except for rebels. Or did I forget something that happened in the fanfic?

Well maybe they go boom, but that's not really their main purpose.

Imperials with Federation technology...

Imperials with access to Federation technology? You may as well imagine modern-day Americans with access to Roman Empire technology.

Mr Bean summed it up for the most part. Souped up phasers with more energy being chaneled into them would make for some interesting planetary assault weapons as well. No melting the surface, complete removal.

Would certainly lighten the power requirements for a BDZ op, thus making the minimum size of a ship that can do one smaller, etc etc.

I'm more interested in the possibilities of fusing the ability to fling a torpedo from Warp with Hyperdrive. Both are based off subspace, IIRC. A baby Galaxy Gun, on a mobile platform.

Or using a FTL drive and phase cloak on some large warhead making it the perfect anti-planetary shield weapon yet.

Specialized BDZ ships using heavy phaser weaponry and a VLS tube with phased FTL torpedoes with a cloaked observer feeding targeting data for important ground instalations. Ship nails the shield generators, then moves in to vaporize the upper crust of the planet.

a phase cloaked genesis device comes to mind why BDZ when you can reorganize the planet for a useful purpose?

Ok. Lets change the scenario to what would the empire find useful? Oh and now they can resurrect important people with the nanoprobes. Too bad palpy's body was blown to bits. But then again Solo does'nt want to do that. However they could keep him alive forever. Discuss the ramifications. The new viruses for weapons are nice, as a reversable alternative to a death star. Phased cloaked death star would be interesting, invulnerable until fires superlaser. Replicators would be useful for producing large amounts of missiles and other expensive weaponry. It would solve logistics problems. Oh and with the empire's common sense, you could rig a replicator to transmutate things by rearranging protons, electrons, and neutrons, since trekkies claim to have "quantum level accuracy". Sure, it would use a lot of power, but since massive amounts of power are available in SW, it would be cheaper to replicate rare elements then tracking them down and mining them. Looks like cloud city goes out of business. Oh and study the refugee stasis pods in that voyager episode to make a matrix-like environment to torture Janeway and Neelix and Wesley in. Also good for extracting information from captured rebels. Just say that the capture was a dream and program fake other rebel members into it. Transwarp conduits would make it less expensive to travel to other systems without requiring expensive FTL capable ships. The photon torpedoes are useless though. Warp makes a good tactical drive, but is dangerous, so scrap it



BTW, off topic, but can anyone tell me what good are starfighters against multi TT shielding?

Nanoprobes?

How do you revive someone who was disintegrated or blown to bits, or eve chopped into sushi with nanoprobes?

It should also be noted that ST replicators cannot reproduce everything, theres a compiled list of stuff they cant make somewhere.

Warp is dangerous? And what do you base that on?

That would be mater-antimater that has the problem, not the warp technology. Romulans use Warp, but power their warpcores with quantum singularities, black holes.

Yes acutal Warp is safer if slower than Hyperdrive, If one's Hyperdrive fails inflight and the Drive Field Values, According to WEG if your not thrown back into realspace(And manage to survive the Whole Ton of Bricks into Ship problem) if your NOT thrown back in your riped apart by Hyperspace as its described as a very energetic demension(Notice how things are *PUSHED to the side when they are traveling? Thats raw energy out there)

Meanwhile if Warp drive fails, sure your tossed into subspace but you will, slowly re-emerge

Well that's why I said you could'nt revive palpy, but then again, why would emperor solo want to do that?

Replicators can't reproduce everything, because their resolution "isn't high enough". Then how come we don't get this problem with transporters? It' s because of trek stupidity (actually writers who so stupid they have to make character's who are stupid).
