Hegemony-V2 begins page 302

[Aeon_]

Sorry Retech, my troops are already in orbit, so I am not calling off the assault. I've PM'd Archi the details. If I take it I will not attack you again. :smile: Well, unless you try to take it back.

[The_Mather1]

it was a fourty year research project so its not crude at all.

I think I funded 80b per year into it.

 

It gives sentientence.

Check again. Your signature says that it was to be finished in 8 days.

His siggy says it was finished 26 days ago, we're in November now, not October

[The_Mather1]

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 when did you get AI? If you mean Hex's AI, I assume it's rather crude.

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.

 

Small cargo ships aren't a bad idea. That would save me unused space when delivering goods to other planets.

 

Thanks for the idea!

You're welcome.

 

Wait, you want to buy some? They're only $5 b each.

It says 30th November.

And I will end up probably losing my 60-80M Japanese civilians due to your assault on the Lichtens. If you want to fight Retech, fine, but at least wait for his 25 million troops to get there first. Then, I can get my civilians.

 

@Archi:

 

Your offer sounds good, but I have no idea how valuable strange matter is. If you could, how much money would every .5 gram of strange matter be equivalent to?

 

@Mather:

 

Probably not. My ships will most likely have a different design and stuff.

 

@Archi:

 

Also keep in mind that Yexenus is transporting me as well. I'm fairly sure that I'd get pretty much all of my population to Britanniae safely.

Dammit, I looked at nanotech. Anyways, it's not like it is that long. I probably won't even figgure out what to use it in before I can.

[archimage_a]

Considering that it usually costs something like 600 B for a ship, I would say that my Caravels would cost 700 B, and would weigh in at around 700,000 metric tonnes(since it is kind of based of the Star Trek Ship Intrepid(aka voyager).

thus it costs 100 b per 100,000 tonnes. Then, depending on which system you are using then....:

1e15/1e9=1000000. So 1 gram is worth $1,000,000(1m)

I think.

[Retech]

Sere, my troops arrive when the round has been computed. If it has already been computed, they are here. I wish you'd try to do more to stop his assualt of Japan though. Just because your civilians won't die doesn't mean that I should be a free target.

 

As the decision seems to rest on Sere's civilians, I will release 50 million of the civilians and keep the last 10 million until Killer calls off his attack.

Sounds fair, but wouldn't you be releasing like 70 million civilians (you said about 80M humans were left on Japan yesterday)?

 

As I'm no longer in the NWO (complying to Archi's terms), there is probably little that I can do as a peaceful nation. I will, however, do my best to convince him to halt the attack. There are no guarantees, though.

 

@Archi:

 

$500,000 per sample sounds like a great price, but I have little use for Strange matter at the moment. Is it possible to convert the amount that you would pay (no clue on the total money that you would be paying) into precious metals such as gold?

[Retech]

Oh right, I had forgotten the exact number today. Yes, your numbers are correct.

 

Thank you for your help.

[The Dark Lord]

[hide=Map][/hide]

 

This is a map that I created during the down-time of some of the major cities of Britanniae.

[archimage_a]

Prefer not to, since I produce such a large amount of strange matter(its kind of like CO2 in its proliferance.) but I suppose I could buy samples at 100,000(Gold $s) per sample(So a fifth of the Strange Matter.)

 

Dependent on how many samples we are talking it should take 5 years or so.

Sounds good. We look forward to your continued service. :)

 

(Needs a guestimate for how many samples I just sold. :P)

Indigenous species from Japan will be introduced to New Japan in the next 3-4 years. Indigenous species from New Zealand will be introduced to Oceania in the same time frame. Royalties will be paid to Rpg for allowing me to clone animals. Once these animals have been introduced, they will breed on their own, leading to a population boom.

 

A peculiar palm tree species has been discovered along the western coastal areas on the large Britannian continent. There seem to be no medicinal uses from the coconut milk, however, it has a sweeter taste than coconuts found on Earth.

Britannia has officially announced that it has pulled out of the War, though the signing of the Sol Doctrine should have been official enough.

[Retech]

Arch, we should decide the modifiers for an attack on my planet, as it is different from Earth:

 

Let's see...

 

-1000% for non-aquatic races

 

 

Yep, that sounds about right. :)

 

 

 

The logistics of invading an aquatic planet with a fleet of soldiers dropped from gliders are mind boggling. Imagine the best possible scenario:

 

Glider forces land onto the 5% of surface that is actually land without being ripped to shreds by the continuous storms. They build up and fortify, while defeating 10 million Lichten soldiers. Then the remaining civilians in arms tear the humans to shreds.

 

Or the worst possible and likely scenario:

 

Glider forces are torn to pieces by the constant storms and wind buffeting the surface (think of neptune). Most of the remaining gliders are blown into the sea, where they are eaten by the waves. The few that make it onto land are mercilessly tortured eternally by the Lichtes prison system.

 

It's impossible to conquer my planet like that without vast resources. It's like killing all the fish in the sea with a harpoon.

 

------------------------------

 

Also, when is the next round ending?

[Grim_]

ehh well I am signing the sol doctrine and getting out of said war.

[Retech]

Grim, I assume you have underground bunkers ready to try to withstand the destruction of the world's ecosystem by the moon?

 

If not, you can hide out in mine. They're a bit wet, but that's alright if you have exosuits.

Yes the underground facilities made for ARCHIVE C have been outfitted with fusion reactors massive hydroponic farms and living quarters as well as several industrial complex's per compound. In short I created close to enough to house my population in relative comfort (think relative)

[Retech]

Flatscreen TVs and Friday nights at the movies?

[Grim_]

Flatscreen TVs and Friday nights at the movies?

The people can bring those things in with them. However I am supplying them with entertainment centers...

Hmm....

 

How much would it cost to create planet-wide, free wi-fi?

[Retech]

All my people need are playgrounds made of kelp!

 

On another note, requesting help in stopping Rocco and Killer from attacking me. Rocco is attempting to attack my home planet and Killer is attacking Japan. I don't see how Rocco could do any damage to my home planet, but I'm worried about the dice rolls.

[Grim_]

Err I dont think rocco has anything that would do that much now that we cant ram ships into each others planets. The only two weapons that would work would be large scale cpc's or fusion nukes neither of which rocco has.

EDIT: @ mather your shield emitters would be wrecked by the ion cannons that rocco has.

Archi can't just roll a dice for the attack on your homeworld considering I've sent nine shield emmiters there.

You can't use any nukes or ships against the planet simply because it would just create large splashes and maybe flood some land, but that's it.

[Retech]

I thought the shields were just for climate control?
