Retech Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Hey, I was desperate. :thumbsup: Anyways, it turns out that by calling myself a *camper*, I inadvertantly made them come to attack me first.

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Commonsense really...'Big death dealing alien, or so all the known races think, the obvious solution would be to try not to offend the race while also not giving up anything that belonged to you....' Should give me plenty of time to construct a second and third Kent, which will make my system neigh unassailable.

Retech Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Two things: 1. You said Kent was a one off thing. Now you're constructing two more? :unsure: 2. I never did anything to offend them.

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I would have to say not trying to outsmart them or lie to them seemed pretty sensible. Also Kent was there to deal with the threat of a total invasion from all the systems in the known universe....Now I need a slightly more powerful system. http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree.

Retech Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Calling myself a *camper* was pretty sensible. Anyways, Ross was jumping on me about my mediocre fleet, I think that your Kents are far stronger. I'll be bringing my fleet back to where it was. ------------- I think your Kents are fair, but not when I'm being jumped on by Ross about how my fleet is too powerful. :unsure: Master of your domain?

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Hardly, I spent 30 years on Kent, which was more than enough time considering that I was devouring a planet to do it...

Retech Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Like I said above, I think Kent is fair, but judged comparitively I shouldn't have to reduce my fleet numbers simply because Ross doesn't agree with them. The total point value of my fleet is probaly 100,000? Master of your domain? I am Lord of the manor, Queen of the castle, King of the county!

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 100,000 is fairly sizable. I think 10,000 would be more reasonable for an offensively powered fleet... especially considering they need to be watertight and you haven't said how you are powering your ships....Nuclear? http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree.

Retech Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I did spend time and money, though nowhere near that of Archi. However, as a comparison, his point value will be upwards of 3 million? I'm not reducing my fleet numbers unless Archi tells me to. ----------------------------------------- The whole point of the fleet is defence. The ships are watertight, but that is the same as making it airtight (you can't have holes in your spaceship can you!). Besides, my fleet works better as a defence, as it can be reinforced and supplied by the battlestation/earth to space refueling dock. Master of your domain?

Wisp Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 So, judging on what you've said before.Their fleet would have a volume of around... 10,250,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 km^3If it's similar density to the earth we have a fleet with a mass of 5,655,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 metric tons. I don't think 3 space stations will stop that. Archi, can you assign a point value to the enemy fleet? Hegemony-Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 I think the density would be just slightly higher at 16.9 g/cm3....So about 3 times that... My main concern is stopping them from pounding my cities into dust from orbit(This might not be what they will do but normative judgement by my player). If they land then I can deal with them.

archimage_a Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Archi, can you assign a point value to the enemy fleet? I will assign a point value when they get closer, at the moment they just look like a giant blob. I would recommend asking Grim about it though, since he has some experience with them. http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

I don't think 3 space stations will stop that. Archi, can you assign a point value to the enemy fleet?Where do you find the time to do such math?All I had to do is1 AU * 4/3*π*radius^3 for the volume. Then I found the density of earth, (5.5 g/cm^3) and converted that to grams per km^3 (550,000 grams per km^3), then that to tons per km^3 (0.55 tonnes per) then multiplied that by the volume. Come to think of it, my math was probably off a bit. I think the real mass of the fleet would be around:680,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Tonnes. Not a big difference really. EDIT: With the higher density it's about 3 times more. But still. Hegemony-Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
