If you were planning on updating it at each weeks end, then that's going to be fine anyway.

Hm, but I continually produce defense platforms... Maybe if I tell you how many I produce per day then every two weeks or so you can update them, to save you updating it all every single day?

But I have like over 2000 Helios orbs around some planets, so what about them? The troop numbers are neglible compared to population, but I will sort that soon.

Hm. Do you need defensive information of each planet as well?

I can donate a mechos body husk, systems torn out and all. It's basically a shell. As well as examples of the very first ARC lasers and the original mars colony buildings.

My project has been decided. I'm going to eat parts of the other tiny planet in my system to get it done faster, and then I think you guys are in for a shock. It's going to take 50 years. All offensive ship, as well as Helios orb (My allies can still produce them) production is being halted in exchange for this grand undertaking. Just one thing though. It is not warfare based.

You still need to accept basic physics in cases like this. I can't imagine any way to create a hypercomputer other than using qubits. In other news, estimates say that Joru will be completely eaten in about 50 years, and some of the matter will fuel my ships for many, many years to come.

"Good thing I invented that infinite improbability drive earlier" I laughed pretty hard at that.

Okay, for the sake of realism, suddenly, the moons cease to exist. Wow. The chances of that were incredibly slim, weren't they? Well over 1:100 Googolplex by my estimate. There. Now we can move on and forget this ever happened. There are some times when gameplay outweighs realism.

How about we put this mess behind us, for the sake of the game?

Alright, no planets were destroyed, no planets are going to be destroyed, just as soon as I use the Naquadah enhanced Ares cannon. I thought that the Naquadah would work in the cooling systems as well?

For gods sake. How about we stop yelling at each other and settle down, I can already prevent the damage. NO PLANETS ARE BEING DESTROYED.

EDIT: Awesome, I think I'll quickly do that and attempt to knock the moons off course and harmlessly into the sun. Using that much power will cause the Ares cannon to annihilate itself though, so you guys owe me <_<

In that case, does anybody have a few hundered thousand gallons of iquid nitrogen? If not, I'm out of ideas.

I sent another one, and I never gave the command to pull out after the war ended, so I think it's still there. Does anybody have some kind of huge freeze ray which can cool the Ares cannon fast enough that it can fire 40 shots without blowing up? One that's within the Sol system?

The Ares cannon I sent to Sol a few years ago during the war is still there, I think I can stop the moon by firing it (maybe) at the request of my allies.

That doesn't make sense, but I don't think Retech being able to launch ships through a thick stormy atmosphere with ease is exactly correct, either. Hm. (Plus, 20,000 MPH wind would kill anything that wasn't a few hundered meters below ground)

I think what retech is doing is logical. I mean, it's pretty bloody hard to invade a planet which is 99% water and cause anything other than minor superficial damage and a mass suicide of your troops.

The SACs you got to use with the making of nanotubes is still incapable of arranging quarks, you have the old version capable of rearranging atoms and molecules, I would however be kind enough to offer a cheap upgrade as well as some more of them so that you can dismantle the objects quickly. Heck, I'll even throw in a modified plasma window containement field/EM-thruster hybrid system to make shure you do not implode upon storage/pulled into a star the moment you are less than one lightyear away due to your cargo's weight(quarks are some heavy [cabbage] if you try to store the ammounts you can fit into a hold bigger than a grain of dust(remember black holes, they're just compact molecules)). You think one billion's a fair price to ensure your safety and actually enable you to do what the ship is supposed to? You shure you want five thousand rings? Remember you only need a maximum of ten onboard the main ship and one on each junk carrier. I upgraded the SACs myself, hence the renaming to matter compilers, and then made them more efficient with Archi's quark generators. However, I'd be interested in buying the plasma window stuff for 100 billion. I'm still underspending and I don't store it up, so I might as well. And yes, I'm sure I want five thousand rings. I plan to make each main ship carry about 30 matter eaters, so I'll need a fair few. Plus, I may attempt to do this again in the future (After Joru, I mean) so it can't hurt to have them in storage.

I believe I can make the rings myself, to be honest, but I will probably need more than I can produce, so I'll buy a few thousand of them. Lets say 5 thousand over the next 5 years, and we can go from there. As for the SACs, I think I'm already using my own version of that, taken from the original designs of yours. As for the matter of getting onto the planet, the planet Joru has little gravity, so large heavy objects falling from orbit wont really have all that much effect. I'll use a system, the harvesters will be sent down to the planet, they'll transport matter back to the Chronos ship, which will disassemble it and store it, and then when it has a full "Tank" of quark matter, it will deposit it in a huge depot which is being built above Zypherius. Oh yeah, and I think the NWO is disbanding, so I'm establishing a formal alliance with Sere and Dungeon and requesting another with RPG..

Bleh, I'm increasing my AI research and continued development fund to 1 trillion per year, since I don't want people catching up with me in my speciality field. This allows many, many more researchers to be employed and allows more tests per day to be carried out. I'm also increasing my ARC laser funding to 700b per year, since it would appear I've actually been underspending for quite a while now. Nanotech research continues, new metal research continues, blah, blah, blah... I'm looking into creating a large matter disassembly ship which will basically take everything it finds apart and then bring them back as quarks for later use. The name of this class of ship will be Chronos, and it will have some defense, but its main purpose will be quark harvesting. I'm going to start tearing the planet Joru apart as well. I'll use all the material later, in a special project. And while we're talking about overpowered planets, I'd like to say that the planets on which I am the only inhabitant have all had most of their atmosphere taken off and are basically deadzones for anything but machines. The main cities also have radioactive metal dumped around everywhere, so good luck with that.

Check again. Your signature says that it was to be finished in 8 days. And besides, 40 years research into an AI which gives sentience without any prior research into computing and mechanics isn't right. Hell, I had to research Hypercomputers first, which took 15 years, combined with the 25 years of mechanics research at Faroe (Exosuits, computer controlled systems) I did near the start of the game, and that's 40 years already. You then add on 10-15 years for the actual research, and you have your total research time. 80b per year isn't as much as I was putting into any of the previously mentioned projects, either. Basically, Mather gets an AI which can perform at a decent level but isn't as advanced as the Germanian/Russian AI, which in turn is nowhere near as advanced as the Aetherian AI.

The cargoshis are small as well, about the space of a household garage inside the cargohold. The AI is crude, but what AIs aren't after all you have to actually reprogram the consiousness for each scenario unless you wan't to spend years educating the robot/computer. What I mean was that Hex basically designed his AI for use in a city guard machine. Besides, my AI is not crude. It is programmed to train and educate itself.

I thought we were allowed to godmod Sere's civilians to Brittanniae? My new heavy defensive platform (I think it's classed as a Battlestation, or maybe a Furlong Fortress) has been in production for the last few years, by the way (Yes I did say in PM when I was starting production) The Styx defensive platform is a large metal ring that is fitted with many, many goalkeeper railguns and ARC cannons, and carries a large amount of fighters, as well as having matter compilers which will be used to create warfare nanites once the research is finished. They use an atomic lattice armour and quark generators to power all of their weapons. Research on my new metal progresses at an average rate. Also, Rocco, I think the Sol Doctrine prevents people from attacking the Lichte homeworld.

4475 Cargo ships...? What? Unless they're like the size of a modern day plane, that's a stupid number, because most ship construction which happens at the moment produces about 10-15 ships max per year. Your paddlejumpers are tiny, so they can be excused, but 4475 cargo ships? And how do you have infinite weapons? And when did you get AI? If you mean Hex's AI, I assume it's rather crude.
