Depending on how many solar systems along it is, estimate they've got about 15 minutes for every solar system traveled. So 15 minutes if they stopped at the first one, 30 if they stopped at the second, etc. Although I'm not sure why they'd skip over solar systems in the first place.


Because Goa'uld star charts are kinda spotty outside of the Stargate network, sine the network is where all the important stuff is. Unless youre trying to make a secret facility that you don't want anyone to find. So the Goa'uld are assuming that this universe is the same as theirs, and going to a planet that they know his habitable in their universe. Which means, skipping over solar systems.

Also I thought 40k Warp didn't do 'straight lines' very well.
Ah, I see. So it's less a case of 'The Devastation shows up a few minutes later' and more, 'the Devastation shows up in a few hours, if not days.' Glad we could clarify that, I was worried for a bit.
Seems like a thought out setting. I'd be interested in taking part.

Well, there was kind of an agreement. And making expansionist efforts in the middle of a global crisis is doomed to attract unwanted attention. But if the Goa'Uld are diplomatic, conflict might be avoided.


I mean, I could just run away. Or hide until you leave. Cloaking is useful like that.

Coincidentally, how are you tracking my guys anyway? They're moving in another dimension right now and it's not exactly a pint to point jump system like nBSG. How is the Devastation supposed to see where they leave FTL?
Reminder that the Imperium are the 'no fun allowed' faction. :V
It didn't take long for the Goa'uld to temporarily deal with the Tyranid threat in the nearby area, even if the meeting spot that had been set up was basically obliterated from the face of the earth at the same time. Once Qetesh was satisfied she had the Ha'taks leave, unmolested by any attackers since those who had survived were too busy hiding beneath the ocean from the practical tempest of radioactive rain that had been unleashed in that particular area.

It was an otherwise peaceful trip though, and soon enough they arrived back at the edges of the Goa'uld's territory on this particular planet. She thought it should encompass the entire planet, but Ba'al wasn't too keen on fighting everyone just yet, not with logistics still the way they were. But at the moment she was a bit distracted from the idea of global conquest to focus more on the events that had just taken place.

As the Ha'taks headed in for their landing fields, Qetesh found herself contacted by Ba'al, fortunately over the radio so she didn't ave to endure any smug looks he might give her. 'Welcome back.I trust you amused yourself?'

"Hardly," Qetesh replied in a huff as she sat down on the throne inside her Ha'tak. "Those....things were like nothing I have seen before. They appeared to use some sort of organic technology, to the point where they might have even been a threat to our Ha'taks. I even had reports of crewmembers going mad, like they had voices in their head driving them to insanity. Fortunately we only lost assets that can be replaced, and for all their advantage they are no less immune to naquadria bombs as any other being."

'I see, Ba'al replied with a curious hum. 'I suppose it supports what we were told by that member of the Imperium. Not that such a thing should be a deterrent to us. We have faced worse before'

As the Ha'tak settled down on the ground, to be tended to by waiting Jaffa and humans, Qetesh nodded as she looked towards the viewscreen. "We will need more soldiers, and ships. I am going to return to that place and wipe any presence of those beasts from this planet, no matter the cost."

Ba'al chuckled aloud, not exactly helping his wife's mood in the process. 'I knew there was a reason I made you my Queen,' he remarked with obvious anticipation. 'I've already issued by orders, and we should be receiving reinforcements soon. In the meanwhile I have a few other ventures that should help us shore up our defenses and expand our available assets. Take as long as you need.' With that he cut off the connection, leaving Qetesh to herself.

She frowned as she thought, rising once more as she recalled what had happened. No, she would not stand for this, that much was obvious. "Jaffa, kree," she snapped as she headed off the bridge, soldiers vanishing afterwards. The Goa'uld were going to be very busy....




In one of the Goa'uld shipyards on the planet of Arcadia, a small affair took place, a hangar opened and closed to allow a patrolling squadron of Death Gliders out so they could ensure that Goa'uld territory was secure and had not been infringed upon by anyone. but it was what was not seen that was the most important.

A Tel'tak had also flown out of the hangar with a cloaking device activated, allowing it to hie from visible sight as well as sensors that were not powerful enough. While initial Goa'uld cloaks had problem with heat dissipation while passing through a planets atmosphere, Ba'al had long ago solved that issue. This ship was crewed with a complement of Jaffa, beaming technology, plasma cannons, and a Stargate stored in the hold. All according to plan.

Once clear of the flight of Death Gliders, the cloaked vessel took off for orbit, rising for a point about Goa'uld territory that was outside the planets atmosphere. Once it was there it would activate the hyperdrive, opening up a window into hyperspace and setting course for the nearest known habitable planet. The Goa'uld planned to explore, and they were not going to let anyone tell them otherwise.

All in all it was a fairly simple operation. Once they had arrived at their destination they would set up the Stargate and dial back to Arcadia, allowing the Goa'uld to begin the subjugation of an entire world for themselves. Ba'al was definitely looking forward to seeing what they found as they embarked on their mission.
Alex's blood froze as the girl revealed that he had said the wrong phrase, fair in the fact that he had no idea what it was but unfair in the fact that he probably wouldn't survive that failure. So he was pleasantly surprised to hear that he was not, in fact, going to die, but merely that some sort of weapons system had shut down. Which was weird if you failed to put in the proper command code, since theoretically that should have preceded activation in the first. But he was getting off track.

More worrying was the mention of 'primary target', and the arrival of a map to reveal where they were going. He wasn't some sort of die hard fanatic, but even he was more than a bit taken off guard when it revealed that it was headed for the capital of the Imperium. Needless to say that was a bad thing, since it meant approximately everyone would be shooting at them, something he didn't want as a man who preferred stealth rather than force, and because he wanted to enjoy a decent life span that went past this point.

The twins weren't proving to be of much help at the moment, so Alex was once again left to fumble and try to handle things as best he could. "Well.....stop, desist, deactivate, retarget?" Hopefully one of those would work, though he didn't have high hopes without having the passcode to make this thing listen to him. But he had to try, and so he did.

Well, rip everything. GG, war's over, Graf's the end all be all now.


Nah. Graf wins the battle but loses the war. :V
Sure, why not. Read some of the books (Ghosts of Onyx, Flood, that sort of thing), played the games. I'd like to think I know a thing or two.
