[OOC] Souls of Steel: A Giant Mecha RP

Moving my post to here:

@Ariamis

BAD

AIM

[Ariamis]

Accidents happen. Besides, I'll have it replaced with the actual post, so IC will remain clean.

[Dragoknighte]

No matter how much you scrub, the marks of your bad aim remain stained in history

[Ammokkx]

@Ariamis You should apply to become a stormtrooper.

*With a calm narrator voice*

On tonight's showing of Souls of Steel: Imminent explosions, determination, and bad aim.

[JessieTargaryen]

Oh boy oh boy. It's time to utterly demolish some Cruxi. Let's hope I hit something critical and cause a self destruct >.>

[Mr Rage]

A chain reaction would be nice! ;)

[Mr Rage]

@Jasonhero I just had a terrible thought, Please correct me if I am misunderstanding... Jason said that because we are in space that the weight of the tungsten doesn't matter (never mind the pun, move along...), but you are slingshotting them around a planet, right? the gravity of the planet adds weight back into the rounds, so at best the tungsten slugs burn up in the atmosphere. At worst they don't and make it all away around and Strike NOAH, killing everyone onboard, and stranding everyone who isn't on board to become POWs or be outright destroyed.

Things I think about when I am at work, not thinking about work.

@Mr Rage

Sounds rad. Let's do it.

@Mr Rage

He mentioned factoring the gravity of the planetoid back in. The weight he was given, I would assume is Earth-Weight. Chances are that whatever we orbit has different gravitational force. Dun worry, we all good :3

[Apollosarcher]

@Mr Rage @Jasonhero Tungsten is a hell of metal.

It wouldn't burn up as we're talking massive shells of the stuff fired and one-inch six-foot rod can impact the Earth with force equal to a nuke.

That's why Ariin wanted to be very sure Jason had the right targeting four shells of this size fired through orbit building additional speed would be enough to split the fucking moon.

This is why the gun is called Pompey, it can level cities from orbit.

Well at least in theory... The power of the GM is greater than any canon.

[JessieTargaryen]

@Apollosarcher I'm aware, but you gave weight. Which was why he was calculating using mass and gravity of the planet. Weight likely was calculated in earth-gravity.

And good, more impact=more death to station!

Ribasu's cannon is probably a bit heftier on a full charge. Only because it earned the Moonbreaker thing by doing that. Though it fires one shot as opposed to multiple volleys of 'FUCK YOU, YOU'RE DYING'.

Tl:dr, this station is fucked. Hopefully.

We could've solved season 2 of Gurren Laggen ez.

[Dragoknighte]

Fire the Tungsten rounds around several suns to slingshot them right into the heart of the Anti Spiral. Universe is saved without needing Spiral Power.

[JessieTargaryen]

@Dragoknighte As long as we become as swol and bigger than galaxies

[Apollosarcher]

@Jasonhero What I'm sensing here is that our artillery squad needs to happen with one of us leading the team. One is a prodigy and well establish team player. The other more emotional but has held command before granted this would problem be a team decision rather than official promotion. Thus I have the feeling either Arrin and Jason are going to be friend or rivals.

@Dragoknighte MY MAGNETS SHALL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!

[JessieTargaryen]

@Apollosarcher Jason would likely pursue friends. He'll accept either command, whoever is best for the squad. So we will be destruction buddies and pierce the heavens with our magnets.

[PandaBrady]

This seems like a fun RP, but Im already committed to too many RPs.

[Mr Rage]

@PandaBrady This is a very fun role play.... though to be extremely honest and fair, sometimes the pace is super slow. But that works out when you have a crazy busy life and everything is happening at once. But in the end, it doesn't matter, as the status is currently set to full.

@Jasonhero@Apollosarcher@Dragoknighte "Don't believe in yourself. Believe in the me that believes in the magnets!"

[Ammokkx]

Surprise I'm still alive.

Got a Devors post out, and I'm 50/50 about making one for Serah. With the fact Atty's repaired, it'd be logical that she'd wake up and take advantage of it, but waking her up still feels premature and with the fact she'd need to gather her thoughts I don't think she'd be able to react fast enough to run on her own.

[Dragoknighte]

Her waking up would be more likely to get herself killed considering the current situation.
