Hegemony-V2 begins page 302

Obviously. Moving on to someone who wants to prove wormholes do not exist rather than speculate as to why they probably don't exist.

 

There is no observational evidence for wormholes, and although wormholes are valid solutions in general relativity, this is only true if exotic matter can be used to stabilize them. Even if the wormhole is stabilized even a slight fluctuation in space would cause it to collapse. If such exotic matter--that is, matter with negative mass--does not exist, all wormhole-containing solutions to Einstein's field equations are vacuum solutions, which require an impossible vacuum free of all matter and energy.

 

I think that, given the complexity of space, exotic matter can be said to have coalesced occasional to form a wormhole. As for size and stability, well that really depends on the situation doesn't it...

[Retech]

I actually like most of the random events that you put. Just not the evil space invader ones. :)

 

That picture was hilarious though.

[archimage_a]

I do concede that it was a pretty good put down.

[Retech]

What about my previous questions Arch? :)

[archimage_a]

Which ones?

[Retech]

Oh yes, does Troll slayer play anymore and if not, could we remove his name off those planets?

 

If you can't remove them, would it be "easy" capture for me to invade and take those planets?

 

Also, does he have any allies?

[archimage_a]

No, Yes

No

No idea

I do actually want wormholes, but putting them as random events throughout space is quite frankly like raping the laws of space-timed physics. They need FTL energy to exist and exotic matter to keep stable, taking energy out of the equation is like claiming you can run a gasoline engine without fuel and sparkplugs. I am aware that exotic matter exists as well, as half a year or so ago I researched all thing neccesary for wormholes in the hope of implementing Stargates into this game, after just a little research I found out whate they required, FTL electrons and exotic matter stabilizers, and not long after I stumbled upon a real reaserch note that actually descibed a found strange matter(still wasn't allowed to make them however :-( ).

 

The stability of the wormhole is not the reason I said it would be impossible, as they could be created at the location of free flowing orbs of exotic matter, but that the actuall "fuel" for it must be present no matter what.

[archimage_a]

The wormhole is solar powered. =)

 

Stuff it, I activate the SEP field.

[Retech]

So I can go colonize Troll's planets? :)

[archimage_a]

Only after the 2nd of December.

[Retech]

Alright.

 

*Prepares transports with 1,000,000 people total for each planet*

[archimage_a]

Ok I have an update for the star map.

http://www.esnips.com/doc/328e3f98-d0c8-4ddf-8d6f-eae8cfad7da3/Hegemony2

 

It is zipped because it might(might not) need the images too.

Anyway I have only done myself and Ross thus far.

 

If you want to name any of your fleets also, or assign them commanders then you can, otherwise it is not important. I do need your fleet sizes though.

[Retech]

Downloading a program to open it. Will update fleet size shortly.

[archimage_a]

Darn, I thought it was in self extractor....Ruddy windows!! :thumbsup: <_<

[Retech]

It would be easier for you if I was allowed to colonize Troll Slayer's planets by now. :)

[Aeon_]

Alright.

 

*Prepares transports with 1,000,000 people total for each planet*

 

 

*Prepares heavily armed warships with heavily armed soldiers on each to send to the planet and kick you off if you get on it*

 

Could you guys not, you know, try and stop me? I haven't had a chance to use my troops or ships at all. My ships would smash his up in space, maybe. But what about the ground? I have better trained soldiers, but he has the advantage of numbers. I don't really want to have my time used wasted.

 

Flaslight production-8/17 the extra 2 years is because I am having 2 or 3 ODC mounted on it to boost it's offensive power.

 

Shipyards-5(?)/10

 

Yes Retech, I want those planets. Resistance is futile. :twisted:

[Retech]

Yet they have no use to you whatsoever. You couldn't farm anything, or really build any buildings. All you could really do is float a space station around it like a gas giant.

 

Or I could use them to make a nice colony, and all can be well.

 

Besides, I don't wish to fight you. Instead, you could send probes into space and find other empires to explode. :)

[archimage_a]

I don't know, Killerwatt has a point, he could easily wipe out your fleet...

[Retech]

*prays that Dusty comes in the nick of time to save me from another threat from space*

[Seraphi]

Alrighty, lets just assume that I chopped all my ships up into more quark matter.

I don't need them anymore, and my allies can't use them, so that should work.

[Retech]

You could help me kill Killerwatt's fleet. :)

[hide=Capiahs]

 

System: Capiah

-

Planet: Capiah 1 and 2 (same stats)

Distance: 175,000,000 km

Radius: 8,000

Gravity: 1.3 G

Orbit Period: 390 days

Rotation: 22.8 hrs

Mean Temp: 18 C

Atmosphere: 1.2 ATM (N2 73%, O2 26%, Ar 1%,)

Hospitable

Population: 1,200,000

Moons: None

 

About it: Capiah is the most established colony besides that of Japan on Earth. With a quickly expanding population and abundant species of kelp, the settlers are thriving. The relatively large amount of land is still mostly unused, aside from defences, but future uses could be found.

 

Military:

Regulars: 100,000

Battleships: 2 (1 a day)

Fighters: 10 (10 a day)

Rotation: 18 hrs

Mean Temp: 20 C (really hot on the surface, cool in the oceans)

Atmosphere: 2 atm (N 58 %, O2 28%, Ar 2%, Carbon Dioxide 12%)

Hospitable

Population: 180,000,000

Moons: None

 

Erikio is the seat of the Lichtes government and homeworld to most of its people. Skyscrapers exist that are taller than almost any structure on Earth, mainly because the buoyancy that the water provides. It is covered by 99% water, with the land harnessed to grow luxury food crops, meat, and defensive installations.

 

Military:

Regulars: 25,000,000

Heavy Battleships: LDS Sturgeon, LDS Sea king (1 per turn)

Battleships: 10 (5 a turn)

Fighters: 100 (50 a turn)

New Erikio is much like Erikio, though it has just started developing. Kelp farms have just been planted, and settlers are unpacking their posessions. Winds are almost as harsh as Erikio, making any land base temporary at best.

 

Military:

Regulars: 100,000

Heavy battleships:

Battleships: 1 (1 per turn)

Fighters: 20 (10 per turn)

Yet they have no use to you whatsoever. You couldn't farm anything, or really build any buildings. All you could really do is float a space station around it like a gas giant.

Or, I could create tech so I can live under the sea with my lizards (they are reptiles after all). :P

[Retech]

Wait, I thought you had a human race?

 

Anyways, with any tech, it wouldn't match the evolutionary capabilities of my species for living under water.

 

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

 

I propose that each of us gets one of the two aquatic planets. I will provide you with things that can help you survive on your aquatic planet, such as genetically enhanced kelp, processing for kelp, subs, and building techniques for aquatic planets. Think that's a plan? :)

[Aeon_]

Sure. :)

 

Yeah, my Veroxians are a lizard species that have gained sentience.

 

And Archi, I have a couple of colonies, they are earthlike. If you want to include my ODC, then here are the stats:

 

 

Name-Orbital defence cannon (ODC)

Capabilities-Can shoot down a medium sized ship in 1 shot.

Size-

Height:1.5km

Length:3km

Width:500m
