They are really small. I meant for them to be smaller than everyone, but then it's like everyone jumped forward. Instead of everyone having a hundred or two ships, max, it all jumped into the thousands.

I'm going to post them going into military production, and quickly expand so they can get everything they need from neighboring systems.

Valkians could use more plot involvement. All they've interacted with is with the Nouvellians; not enough trust of those around them in orbit around Nouvelle.

Gods of Greece - What happens when Gods go to war

Gods of Greece is based off of a roleplay that was first in the Forum Roleplaying section of the Minecraft Forums, and later went to a now-closed roleplay website, RpSpectrum.com. Both times, it was a well-liked roleplay. However, the plot isn't that the minor gods and goddesses are doing wahtever they want- even though they'll be doing it, more or less- but rather, several of the major gods took the minor gods, essentially, and put them on the island to try and get them to get them to work together. More powerful fighters working together is good for battle, and generally, they're just going to see if a leader emerges and whips them all up into shape. Everyone is aware of the war, unless they're a bit iffy in the head. Generally, the major gods are too busy fighting against other demons and such to take note of the minor gods.

Be aware though, this is a HUGE explosion, the radius would engulf the whole ship, just the reaction fueling it would be confined to the front quarter.So realistically you would just see a giant explosion, nothing beyond that.

No, not a "HUGE" explosion. That'd be unfair- attaching FTL drives to a simple drone, and then warping it into coordinates near an enemy ship would do far too much damage. I think Monkeypants has a better idea- the result of that woul be debris flying off at high speeds in a single general direction, from what's essentially directional instant compression and implosion, which will then react to the force hitting the front stuff, and essentially just turning into debris.

KeyGuy's FTL, if fired correctly, or rather, incorrectly enough, could destory the system behind it. Obviously, this is very unfair. I believe he edited that bit out.

Perhaps to even it out is that the device has a great deal of heat output, radiation output, something, that forces it to have it's own 'blister' on the hull so that it can efficiently remove heat from the vessel, and in the case of overheat, it won't seriously damage the ship. This way, if you trap an enemy ship, they can target that device and destroy it, without having to just blow up your ship. Then they can flee.

Um. If three+ people show interest by responding shortly after this, then if someone would like to put up an OOC, that'd be cool. Honestly, I feel like I'm crap at being OP.

Ok, instead of having a big long debate, let's just go with-

This breaks FTL- no worky in zone around it when the switch points at ON, nor can anything else that moves at slightly below lightspeed or more.

The Last of Us

You're REALLY underestimating Shax. That's not a clever thing to do.And Drake... Hell if I know. just a random direction that nobody else went in.

You just said the stupidest thing. A dragon the size of a town...

And you say the tall human-sized demon is being underestimated.

The dragon who has fought armies...
against an unhumanly powerful demon. A swipe of a foot larger than a tree is tall, or a swing by a tail that is too heavily armored to be cut through or hit. Don't pick a fight with this dragon. He is meant to be more NPC than player character, but he will kill any of the characters on the island. The picture wasn't just how he looked- that's his size. And unless this is anime, you won't be able to beat the crap out of him.

And if either of you even think it's remotely possible that there may be a small battle between yours and the Valkian, then do explain how it would appear- would it just be torn apart from the inside out, would it appear to be some kind of shockwave that erupts in front of it, and strikes it, or what?

Because, one of the tactics I may use against enemy ships is short-range FTL. Where, essentially the ship FTLs forward by predicting exact coordinates- and I mean EXACT- and then coming out close and behind. A viable tactic for the Explorer, since it uses short range swarming missiles, which can be countered as the range lengthens, and particle cannons that get weaker the farther they travel. If an Explorer were to engage one of your ships with its FTL-blocked, then it may try this new tactic and be utterly torn apart.

And more than that, anyone watching would see only a ship FTLing very close, and then being utterly and instantly destroyed by a massive surge of energy. That would be a GREAT factor in deciding treaties and the like- all I would know is that a ship got in close, and was instantly destroyed. That would be pretty intimidating.
