@Nawmaing Hey! I am really interested in this rp and I was wondering if you were still open to applications?

@Infernal Flame Well one more person wouldn't hurt, just make sure that he/she/it doesnt have a similar role to what we have, to keep it diverse and what not.

Heres the Cs, just use the raw mode to get the coding!


@Cleverbird

These are basically just foot soldiers, and the only type of Buzzers they've seen from the every ten year invasions, so story wise these are the only type they are aware that exist.

@Cleverbird I mean, you can only insulate something so well without damaging its use. Anything that can transmit/receive signals will always be vulnerable to directed EMPs. Generally speaking, the only really effective counter is something that can shut off and shield itself when it detects large spikes in electromagnetic activity.

I don't wanna sound like I'm being nitpicky about your armor, but I still want to know where that three foot thick armor plate fits on that suit. I could see it if it was a separate shield on an arm or something, but no part of it really looks like it could hold a fourth of its height-thick plate of armor.

I mean, even a modern nuclear submarine's armor plating only ends up at about a foot thick...and those take multiple atmospheres of pressure at all times.

@LunarisDaFoxAh! So like the aliens from Crysis? I've always liked the Ceph as an alien race.

@NawmaingI mean, the modern US military already protects most of their equipment against EMP attacks with Farady cages and metal shielding... You're telling me that in the 4000 years that passed after that, we never perfected the technology? Granted, if we were going down that road, I doubt we'd send in soldiers of flesh (well partially in some cases) and blood, when we probably have drones that can do the exact same job, probably even better. So yeah, I'm okay with EMP attacks being dangerous.

Also, good point about the armor plating. I kinda went by the specifics of the M1 Abrams, but I guess 900mm is a little too thick (also, submarines dont need a lot of armor since technically speaking, they should never, ever get hit). I dropped it down to roughly half that, 400mm, which would be around 16 inches of freedom units, situated around the pilot.

@Cleverbird That's actually why I specified 'directed EMP'. A faraday cage definitely increases resistance to the standard EMP that's usually caused as a side effect of explosions and other radiation spikes. A directed EMP is more like aiming an insanely high powered microwave directly at a target. Naturally, just as preventative measures are created so are more effective weapons. You make something immune to a modern EMP? The modern EMP evolves to surpass that immunity (and vice versa). We're also talking alien tech...of aliens that have been invading for ~6000 years and gathering information on human technology. Unfortunately humans haven't gotten much intel on them as the only units the aliens seem to send are simple cannon fodder with basic energy weapons.

I was mostly just concerned on where that armor plate was going to fit...since it would've been up to your suit's knees in thickness. 400mm is much more understandable. Thanks for your consideration.

@vertigh0st Go ahead and start on a CS, we're still waiting on a few. You'll have to be the last unplanned applicant though.

@Infernal Flame@Cleverbird@Zoey White I should definitely mention that as this RP will be actually moving towards an ending...Characters will def be killable if you vanish without explanation. Please let me, Lun, or Caw know if you're going to be unable to post for a while. In that case we'll just drag your chars along...if you just disappear out of the blue your char may be added to the LLN's memorial board.

@Cleverbird You're good, move Red on over to that Character tab.

@Infernal Flame So long as Clever's not mad about a second (albeit lighter) exosuit I think you're pretty much good.

Also, minor heads up. There's a huge chance the Captain is way older than any of you expect.

Aww Red will have a little baby APU to care for ♥

And I dont mind at all, though I do wonder how the two suits compare in power.

@Nawmaing Awesome! Should I move him over to the Character tab?
@Cleverbird Yes! Compared to Red’s suit, Marion’s exosuit looks like a kid brother. And I had a look at your specs and even at it’s most weaponised, Marion’s suit is not as intense as Red’s. So he might just hide behind her if it gets too bad. 😂

I'll get my bio up in a bit I'm just trying to parse together the details out for my character's history. I apologize for the wait.
