@boomlover

xD Check the IC.

It's been marked as coming in "24 hours", from the time I edited that post, which was 20 hours ago.

In other words, it'll start tonight.

But why are you asking? Your sheet isn't finished, and therefore you could not post regardless. Nobody is allowed to post until they're done with the NS.

Guh, so weapons are easy enough to replace, I've been replacing positron beams with gamma lasers which are still plenty fun. The railguns don't need much changing, just a little tweaking to power them with good old fashioned electromagnets instead of sophisticated gravitics. Missiles are missiles, don't need any changing.

Power generation can be a matter-antimatter reaction or miniaturized fusion, don't really care, I'll decide on it later.

Where I'm having trouble is the drive technology. My ships all have these giant engines, now what are they...

Any suggestions?

@Hael Or anybody.

They are imperfect, but they are also the only thing between you and the Federation. That makes them an object of some respect.

@Hael

What do you mean the only thing between me and the federation?

@rush99999

Wait... when I said "you", I was talking from a Xim perspective- as in, it is the only thing between the Xim and the Federation. I didn't mean to reference MONARCH.

@Ozerath

Big engines?

Perhaps they just have really inefficient warp drives

@Hael

Now only taking useful suggestions :3

[Sigma]

@Ozerath Perhaps sightly faster warp drives?

@Ozerath

Well, to be honest, I'm not sure what you're asking for. You want to know what your engines are, right?

Well, I've already said that warp is the general way of getting around, so that should probably be the form of engine you use. I... don't know what more you're looking for, exactly. I'm sorry :'(

@Ozerath

Ion? They're weak but stupidly fuel efficient. I could see them working as pretty good Sublights if you had a fairly large amount to offset their weak thrust. If you're talking about FTL specifically... Dunno.

@darkandstar

Ohey there's a thought, thanks bud.

I'm gonna assume inertial dampeners are a generally accepted technology so our crews don't all become pink paste?

[darkandstar]

@Ozerath Np. Glad i could help. xD

@Ozerath

Naturally

And I'm glad you found what you were looking for! Sorry I was unable to help.

This is true, and they are trying to fix it, but that doesn't change the fact that Crushers are their first line of defense.

They are imperfect, but they are also the only thing between you and the Federation. That makes them an object of some respect.

However, it is considered a disgrace for a Crusher to die from seizures (as the majority do), and a large part of their military funding is spent trying to fix this flaw.

@Hael

A disgrace for the Crusher or Xim science?

@Mardox

Yes?

[Ozerath]

Got my Nation sheet posted in the characters tab, working on my explorer.

[Sigma]

The Commonwealth has potential to be a possible ally or rival for the Federation :D

@Hael

I wouldn't be surprised if Crushers have developed a Valhalla complex because of this.
