Alex is on the short side but let's face it she just likes to be above everyone else. She really likes heights.
Just to be clear when people have been saying "Asgard Core" They're talking about the standard tech aboard sips like the Daedalus, Apollo, Odyssey, and Sun Tzu that allow operations of the Asgard beam weapon, beaming technology and hyperdrive?

Okay when I've been saying it I meant a human made version of the knowledge bank given to the Odyssey. Nothing that powerful of course but an interface of that style that regulates the ships systems.

Before this gets out of hand, we are not having a ZPM onboard and we are not likely to have one at any point in the RP.

Be happy we have Asgard beams and an Asgard core. Those are hard enough to balance as it is.


I brought it up before we started talking about the ZPM and Sep said that the ship didn't havd an Asgard Core.

So this is confirmation, we have a human made recreation of the Asgard systems installed in the last episode of SG-1
Why would we have to keep it away from your character?

Anyways the ZPM is strictly a power source. It increases the efficency of the ships systems most notable the hyper drive and shields but it doesn't make the ship invulnerable. In 'Unending' the very last SG-1 episode the ZPM powered Odyssey was on the verge of being destroyed ZPM or no and was saved by Asgard systems.

A Zero Point Module would only increase ability to run and perhaps grant a slight advantage in combat but it doesn't make the ship immune to damage. You're blowings power a bit out of proportion because of the fact that it is Ancient tech and the things it is able to do when it is powering the right devices. A ZPMs effectiveness is limited by what it is powering, on Earth the weapons platform was able to destroy Anubis's entire fleet but this was the result of the Drone Chair and platform design. The ZPM is simply a power source and if a story comes up where we need to be short on power several I replicable relays between the ZPM and the ship could get damaged.
No they excavated the entire weapons platform and moved to Area 51. The whole system was in violation of the Antarctic Non-Proliferation Treaty. Just moving the chair wouldn't solve this problem. The chair is mearly the control interface. Just moving it would be like if you're mother told you to move your computer so you move the monitor and keyboard leaving the computer behind.

It would require much work but that us what theh did.

Anyway, that wasn't my point. My point was that we have a ZPM lying around and no weapons platform for it to power therefore it would most likely be installed in Earth's most advanced ship, The Langford.
The Odyssey had a ZPM installed it didn't stop the, from almost getting blown up... a lot.

The shield weapons and hypr drive were all capable of being set offline by attack even with a ZPM.

No, the chair was destroyed. The platform itself is still operational.


That is exactly what I mean. Without the drone chair the weapons platform doesn't have a control base for any of its systems. That being said the ZPM previously powering the drone chair would effectively have no purpose so why would it not be installed on the SGC'S newest and most advanced ship.

Sep said
Besides the chair is made of metals and such, as McKay so delicately puts in the episode where they are at the fake SGC ZPMS can't be broken easily, without some kind of mega explosion. The ZPM likely would of survived the Kamikazee.


That was never in dispute, though it was in Area 51 at the time to poeer the chair for the oncoming wraith attack it would no doubt survive the destruction from the darts. Since it likely survived and thd chair is no more they don't really have a better place for it.
If Dingo is around I started the collab.
Sep said
Nope, the Oddyssey still has hers, as does Area 51. The rest are back with Atlantis.


But the ancient weapons platform was destroyed. What happened to the ZPM previously powering the drone chair?
I'll drop in on you two kids once you've had a good chat.
