But I stand by my point that it's quick enough that while you could scramble defences, you don't have the time to get a full battlegroup in position.

Nope, sorry, FTL can only go so fast, and I'm outside of known space, meaning it will take you days to get to me. Meaning your wormhole is going to appear long before you can get to me.

Here's the deal. Either it's the battlegroup, and your people can get the chance make it out of here alive, or it's planetary defenses, which are not so inclined to ask you nicely to go away before blowing the crap out of you. I was feeling generous, so you got Clay.

And the wormhole would appear just as the ship does, not in advance.

Also, I have recieved a massive downgrade in ships and planets. Not a downgrade in tech.

I'M beyond known space, so that's a non-issue. And the wormhole would appear just as the ship does, not in advance.

Unless you're right next to me, which you aren't, then you have to go even farther to get to me.

My head hurts when you try to justify this. Wormholes are point to point. You need both ends active for there to be a middle.

You just gave me a week or more of prep time. Thanks.

'It wasn't specifically forbidden, therefore I get whatever I want!'

None of your stuff is DS9 level. Your speed is too high.

Allright, by that logic, a wormhole is the same length no matter how long the trip is in realspace.

So it take my ships exactly 5 min to reach a location, weather it's the star next door or the other side of the galaxy? Is THAT what your saying?

What is the problem you have with somthing that HAS NO MILITARY APPLICATON.

Because I have experience with you and how you twist stuff to your advantage no matter what. But hey, since it has no military application, the Overseer out in the Badlands with you will eat you up without slowing down.

Nope, it's just stating a fact that a wormhole needs two points to have a middle. Do I need to teach you basic geometry to get the point across?

Do I need to teach you basic relitivy? Take a piece of paper, put two dots on it, fold the paper between the dots. The dots touch.

THIS IS TRUE NO MATTER HOW FAR APART THE DOTS ARE.

Foldspace technology is endlessly ahead of DS9 technology. Therefore you cannot have it. So kiss my ass.

Wormhole technology isn't that far ahead of DS9, we've seen some other races use it.

Except that you don't get to make the pieces touch, you just get to decrease the distance, dumbass. You're making a tunnel which has to be kept open on both ends in order to work. You sure as hell don't get INSTANT point to point tech.

And I dare say I have a much better grasp of relativity theory and quantum physics than you do.

It is ahead of DS9 technology. Therefore you cannot use it.

The STGOD has things called 'Rules'. You are required to follow them.

Point to where in DS9 it has magic, if you can't, point to where you massivy objected to aly's empire.

And even if it's not instant, the point is it dosn't depend on the distance between the two poitns if you use the strictest definition of a "wormhole".

So fine, you can detect it, but it's really fuggin fast. See new IC post.

Probability control device.

Of course, since you're a retard, you can't fathom that that defines the effects possible, not the method to get there.

Once again. What you want is above the tech level for the STGOD. Therefore, you cannot have it, you powergaming peice of whiny shit.

NEWSFLASH!

You're a Dumbass!

Maybe you missed the MASSIVE FUCKING POSTS about three or four members posted, yelling at Alyrium for breaking DS9 techlevel with his magic?

It's capability, not method, that's important.

Seriously, I'm playing Crobuzon next STGOD just to how that a magic-based empire can be done right.

Somehow I doubt you're even out of high school.

It does here, and it does if you consider the massive amounts of power required to artificially shorten the distances involved.

So fine, you can detect it, but it's really fuggin fast. See new IC post.

Pity for you, you lose the ship before you get to say a damn thing. I told you I was being generous before. You just threw that away. Goodbye.

Oh, and there is a battlegroup there. Get over it.

Look, take Polymorph Other for example. No tek race can instantly morph you into another form. Can't be done.

But none of you objected to that BECAUSE IT'S FUCKING USELESS! The fact that you can't do it does NOT make it broken!
