Sep — Roleplayer Guild

For anyone who cares... that's what I'm applying as.

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Yeah. Anyway, I've put the history of the ship/ships from the wiki in a separate hider from the custom history I'm still writing. The custom one will detail the events leading up to Valtrix's arrival in the Star Wars verse, while the original will simply be a record of the Aurora-class battleships in general.@ZAVAZggg

Meanwhile, my ship is up.

- More Passengers aboard, these are notables after having been sent back to Earth they were on their way back to the Pegasus Galaxy.

The BC-304 Daedalus is the first of it's kind. Designed to be the replacement main ship of the line rather than the ageing BC-304. The Daedalus, unlike its predecessor, is built with many of the alien subsystems ingrained into the ship's systems. Rather than the more advanced systems being tacked on after the fact. Designed to lead the USAFs Fast Attack Wing her standing orders are to ferry personnel and equipment between Earth and Atlantis, with the people of Earth only having one functional ZPM. Deploying that ZPM to Atlantis during the siege the Daedalus proved itself a capable warship in battle. Taking out multiple Wraith hive ships before being overwhelmed by superior numbers, as well as their enemy somehow learning how to block the Asgard Transport Beams.

Its next challenge came when on the return from Earth a Wraith Virus took hold of the ship's systems. Almost killing the entire crew in order to deliver the ship into the hands of the Wraith. The ship was damaged in order to prevent this outcome, repaired at Atlantis before it continued on its standing orders. 

It was later discovered that Colonel Caldwell was a Goa'uld infiltrator on behalf of the Trust, after having the symbiote removed the Daedalus continued to support Atlantis through multiple combat and non-combat scenarios. Most recently it engaged two Wraith ships bound for Earth in the space between Galaxies with the help of the Lantean Warship 'Orion'. While the Orion was destroyed the Daedalus survived, having been sent back to Earth for full repairs it is now on its way back to the Pegasus Galaxy.


Note: For the interest of my state of mind, as far as I'm concerned the universe in which this Daedalus comes from is identical to that of the show in all but one way... Star Wars does not exist as a movie franchise. I feel like it'd just be confusing.

Well, I might be mistaken given how it's been awhile since I've seen the show, but I could have sworn that the drones returned to the ships that fired them. Though looking back, I probably got it mixed up. As a matter of fact, if I'm starting to recall episodes of Atlantis correctly, the drones just flew off somewhere or exploded like in that video above.@ZAVAZggg

Yeaaaaah the drones don't return to ship. They're either destroyed or run out of energy.

<Snipped quote by Sep>

I see. Explains why some of them explode upon impact before the other's tear through to the other side. Though I have to wonder why the Lanteans would seemingly make the drones return to the thing that fired them if they can't be reactivated or recharged. Either way, I'll make them like they are here for the roleplay.@ZAVAZggg

Example of them returning to sender? I don't recall ever seeing them return to where they were fired from.

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Ah, okay.@ZAVAZggg

You'll see that some of them continue onward, still having energy. I always figured it was a kind of 'kamikazee'. They're explosive on impact, but the sheer volume of them some tear through the hull, the ones behind it continue the path and so on and so forth until they carve their way through the ship. Once through the other side they loop around and go again.

I do have one question. Should I have the drones aboard the Renatus explode on impact with a ship, or have them survive the impact and return to the ship like in the show?

(I could compromise and have some get destroyed while others don't)@ZAVAZggg

The show also has some of them destroyed. Though the reason why is never properly explained. Though like the show we can assume that drones are single use. Once they've been fired, they can't be reactivated even if they do survive as their power source runs out (See Atlantis S01E01).

Haha I watched all those fun little ship videos! (For the expanse)@Mataus

I really like that the actual Expanse team helped make the Expanse related videos. Fun fact I was tempted to go a Battlestar, and checking dimensions the Donnager could have fit (uncomfortably) into one of it's hangars for FTL. Though I decided with an Aurora class which will probably be our biggest ship/possible flagship to go with something else.

In regards to the comment about Asgard Beam Weapons those ships had just dropped from hyperspace and as you recall in the episode comment is passed about the ships just leaving hyperspace and not having their shields up yet.

I still need to finish season3....

@ZAVAZggg basically when it comes to the sheet the more details the better that's the best way to put it. @Mataus sheet is a good example. 

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Oof. That's alright. My brain automatically corrects it when I read it. Also, would hyperdrives count as unique? Or should I just move them into the Navigation System section I have? Kind of a silly question I know, but I want to be sure the hyperdrives the Ancients use don't count as unique before I make a change.@ZAVAZggg

Depends on what class as Lanteans have two. They've got the Intergalactic and the weaker Intragalactic. 

Also the reason I'm specifically saying Lantean rather than ancients is just to be specific. Ancients have a long obscure history, I feel like it's important to be specific in this case.
