ok, i fail to understand how we have a forcefield capable of blocking bullets but cannot stop a human. it would seem like it would be the other way around. now i can understand if it can block a laser, but not solid objects... but the bullet thing just doesn't make sense....
However, the force-field can operate on the principle that th object must travel at such a velocity to puncture the sheild. I find that would work. Sorta like the Holztman Sheild in Dune. (Why they have swords in the future =P)

i just got out of the shower and was thinking of a plot for this... it may be a bit far out there, especially from anything you might have had in mind, Channler. But it would make for an interesting plot. here goes:
ok, the 501st was in the battle of the blind, right? the way i saw it is that the HDF won, but got massacred. but maybe BOB (battle o the blind) wasn't an 'accidental' run in with an enemy fleet. what if BOB was a secret HDF set up that they planned on using for wiping out the 501st and whatever other squads were there? but the plan backfired, the HDF forces won BOB and some of the 501st was left alive. so now HDF is trying to get rid of the remainder of the 501st by having them 'escort' the wildcats. only the wildcats 'accidently' have a bit of a miscommunication and 'accidently' open friendly fire on the 501st. thus, we flee and land on mars or something and hide from the HDF because they want us dead.
the only problem with this is: why did the HDF send the 501st to there doom at BOB in the first place?
just a thought....

I'm going to wait for minque and Florodine to finish their conversation so that Rann can come home and the time frame could at least be considered semi-reasonable.
Rann isn't going to take a test and walk home without another word being said away from him

The humans lost BOB. Most of their generals were killed and they lost over a hundred ships to the rykar's 24. that = not a win.
Megil Tel-Zeke
Oct 7 2005, 03:04 AM
sigh great, my life is in danger . wOOt. Rann better make his way to teh university before the spy arrives. since Edward has no weapons.
and that's 8,202ft= 1.5 miles O.o that is REALLY big. but it's space so i guess we ahve to makes stuff big.

Well, I guess soulseeker could occupy his character by having him sneak around a little, doing small things before actually showing himself. That way, Rann has some time.
The acceptance shouldn't take long; all he has to do is load that disc into his computer and apply, then he just has to fly over there.

Ok, just to post a lil ship info for the HDF (Human Defence Force). This has been roughly copied by the rest of the Milky Way inhabitants. List goes from largest to smallest.
Capital ShipsBattleship:- Largest ship in the fleet
- Size can range from 3km to 5km long.
- Weapons onboard a battleship are capable planet killers
- Admirals generally are in charge of battleships
- Battleships move SLOW.
Battlecruiser:- Second largest ship in the fleet
- Size can range from 1Km to 3km
- Generally Captains command these
- Effective for planet bombardment, also effective against other Battleships and Cruisers
- SLOW
Carrier and Random Transport Ships:- Carriers are generally smaller then Battleships yet larger then Battlecruisers. Transport ships very, but few are bigger then a 1Km.
- No weapons other then light anti-fighter guns
- Generally captains are in charge here
- Carriers hold smaller ships (IE, frigates, barges, fighters/bombers) number depending on size.
Saturn Class ShipsCruiser:- Size can range from 2/3Km 1 1/2Km
- Anti-Ship, Anti-Fighter capable
- Slow yet more manuverable then Capital Ships
- Common transport ships
Empiracle Class Ships:Corvette:- Size is anywhere from 500m to 750m
- Primarily Anti-Fighter. However in large numbers can take on cruisers
- Manuverable, medium speed.
Frigates and Blockade Runners:- Up to 500m
- Med-High Speed, manuverable
- Light cannons only effective against other frigates and fighters
- Most carry advance scout and emp systems
Fighters/Bombers:- Fast, most manuverable
- Bombers only effective against larger ships
- Piloted by 3rd through 1st Lt.
- Carried by carriers
For you Megil
Thats my chart for a rough overview of the HDF ships... This WildCat cruiser could almost be a BattleCruiser...

Just wanted to post the TAF Spacecraft Series...
TAF-1 'Sword'First craft in the Tactical Assault Fighter series. Made a huge impact when it was first set in action against Rykar Fighters while protecting the border. Is armed with general Anti-Spacecraft missiles and one Light Bomb Missile used to be set off against Rykar Cruisers and Destroyers doing a heavy amount of damage to armor and electronics.
It has also been upgraded over the years, fitted with the newest of technology of weapons and instruments. It's only problem right not is that its pretty slow compared to the newest fighters.
But from all of that, its a very cheap craft right now and easy to get to. Is still used alot in training because it needs alot of skills to handle.
TAF-1 'Sword' Picture 1TAF-1 'Sword' Picture 2TAF-1 'Sword' Picture 3TAF-2 'Flaming Dagger'It's the second fighter in the series. It's used alot now, its easy to handle, high 'agility' and still a very fast craft due to simple upgrades on its engine. It's used most for hit-and-run on the Rykar Battleships and Cruisers. It's armed with a total of 30 Anti-Armor Missiles also known as 'Flaming Dagger'. They are advanced missiles that have a very special type of missile head that's so hot that it can melt its way through the thick armor before exploding sending out fragments destroying most of the insides of the Rykar ships.
They are also fitted with one Heavy Tactical Missile, that is control by the weapon operative in the craft. They usually use this after a huge hole has been made in the armor of the ship, they then fire the missile that has been called 'Negotiator'. The weapon operative sends it right into the ship before it explode as a massive fireball, sending firewalls through the corridors of the ships destroying almost everything in its way. The missile is only used when they have a clear hole in armor to ships or bases.
The craft is also fitted with a laser shield, it can be only turned temp. on by the pilot or weapon operative while under heavy fire while doing objective.

are there any gunpowder guns, like modern day? or are they all magnetically fired?
also, wouldn't a magnetic gun be silent? and something strong enough to shoot a bullet at...well...bullet velocity then wouldn't it like move a car if you were standing next to it and fired? unless the gun had like an outter anti-magnetic shielding or the magnet was designed to be powerful but only affect a very close range to the magnet.
Megil Tel-Zeke

well gun powder won't ignite in space, since there is no oxygen available. and we will say there is an antimagnetic coating around the gun,as well as a very small field of influence.

I think Shogun was talking about smallarms.
Like handguns, rifle, etc.
I think the normal handguns are such would be normal gunpowder ones. No sense in making it magnetic if it doesn't need it.

I am not sure ont eh whole gun thing, but since the entire thing takes place in space It would make sense to have even small guns be amphibious for both atmospheric and void situations. Like fussy and lone were fighting on the surface of pluto was my understanding, a normal gun wouldn' fire becuase pluto does not have a significat atmosphere and no oxygen.

remember megil that everything takes place in domes which have working ecosystems, and therefore have 21% oxygen.
Unless you;re in a space0suit on the surface outside the dombs that is, or outside a space-ship.
Megil Tel-Zeke

You would be
royally painted if fighting in normal space. A
rock bgoing the
normal bullet speed in space would cut through a normal spacesuit like tissue paper, along with the flesh of the suit's occupant.
A guy in a armored suit, with a magnetic gun (which, essentially is a
railgun) would be even worse off. Low manuevability, with guns that'd put a round clean through you. If it didn't kill you outright, the decompression and cold of space
would. And the force would send you flying across the planet's low-gravity surface.
And if the Rikar attacked the humans would use their ships. If those were destroyed, then yes, they would have to wait.
