[quote=ASTA] [quote=WilsonTurner] [quote=ASTA] What is the point of including an antimatter warhead on your missiles if they have such absurd performance? I mean really, 20 percent the speed of light? That's 59,958,491 meters-per-second, or roughly [i]134 million miles-per-hour[/i]. Any missile traveling with that degree of tempo is going to utterly obliterate any starship that it impacts regardless of the ship's composition or magical power field that protects it. [/quote] A) 20% sublight is the cruising speed for Draconian warships, which should get them to where they wanna go within a system within a decent timeframe without using FTL. B) You're not even in the roleplays- you left MWG, and you keep commenting in each. Perhaps if you're not going to participate, you should not. C) This is a roleplay. Realism is most certainly not the main thing. Oh, some things, yeah, but here, a railgun firing FTL-speed rounds would be more of a oh-crap-shield-dead-now, not a oh-crap-we-lost-thirty-ships. Summary: We are not that realistic. You need to stop talking where you won't join. That is an example. Good? Good. [/quote] It's not about being realistic, it's about you having a 0 sense of scale. [/quote] Actually, my scale extends as far as I can count- from potato to firetruck.
