Archimage A's Alpha Centuri!

So the water basically spreads out across the entire floor. To Ross, I will say your drones never came in, because you didn't know what happened with the water, and it would be unfair if your drones just died there. The lift still works, but it isn't really a good idea to move my people out anyways. :thumbsup:

 

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

 

Your people can still invade. The water is only waist high.

[Seraphi]

To be honest, the whole flooding of rooms is overpowered anyway.

There is only one entrance to that Area of floor C, and apparently, it cannot be invaded because nothing else can live underwater and we don't have any underwater tech.

Hurrr.

[Retech]

Read above please.

 

Anyways, it's not overpowered in this case because I control that section of Deck C, so it makes logical sense that I would also flood the part surrounding the rooms. I can't flood any other deck, namely because I don't control it.

[The_Mather1]

How about that, for 6 turns, the south west turbolift of deck C is out of action, it is clogged with water and the unfortunate Lichtes who were sucked out with it.

 

Sure, it means I can't move troops in, but it also means there is no way out for his troops.

Lift is down, but the Lichtes only felt a small "breeze" in the water, it's like when you open a bottle of soda, unless you shake it first the soda won't be blasted out with the small ammount of excess CO₂.

[Seraphi]

Disregard.

Oh wait, I read above. Stupid non-telling-you-when-a-new-post-has-been-made forums.

Instead, I'll just open the lift, fire a few shots while hiding behind the shields, and then run away again.

[Retech]

The flooding also means that I cannot use drones, because my rooms are all flooded. I have to rely on my biological soldiers.

 

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

 

Did you read, you can invade with biological soldiers? I'm going to include mechos as biological because it would unfair if they couldn't invade.

[Retech]

I was thinking more like eating potato chips in space. The potato chips fly out and start clogging the machines.

[Seraphi]

Retech, once again you give yourself an unfair advantage, since you can use plenty of biosoldiers since your species reproduces in 5 months at no disadvantage whatsoever. You don't even need drones.

[archimage_a]

Well the bio-soliders are 3 times weaker than the drones...Plus his water attacks can be defeated by forcefields.....

[Retech]

No cost? I have to pay upkeep, don't I?

 

Everyone saw the advantages and disadvantages, as well as my technologies at the beginning of the game. You didn't say "Nope, that's overpowered" until I started fighting Archi. If you had said it before, then I would've listened, but I guess I can understand why you're trying to remove that.

 

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

 

Correct. Also water isn't used as an attack. It is a defence.

[The_Mather1]

There's one, they are not as accustomed to air as we are, basicly all his people have asthma.

[archimage_a]

Yeah, alright Retech, you win....In the future disagree with everything Retech says because he will blackmail you later, got it.

 

Anyway.

[Retech]

The "inhaler" for them is water. Did I mention they die from obesity?

[Seraphi]

Alright then. my attack will continue as planned.

Both barriers have already been taken down using Archi's orange room.

[Retech]

Great sarcasm Archi. Or was it sarcasm? :unsure:

 

 

Anyways, the elements of my strategy only come together in a defence. Which is why I haven't tried to attack anyone yet, my people are rather poor at attacking in this kind of enviroment. Ross, I'm assuming that you don't mean that you are sending drones in to a room which kills drones.

 

------

 

There was only one barrier.

[Seraphi]

No, I'm sending Mechos. Which are stronger. So yeah.

 

The plan is this

 

The three forward mechos are staying behind their shields, while the back one uses the sonic cannon to fire into the centre of the room.

It's more harrasment than a full attack, but that comes later.

 

The three unarmed drones which had their equipment taken are sent back to guard the rest of deck C.

[Retech]

Mechos have a base stat of 1/1/0. Wouldn't they be weaker than drones with the same equipment?

 

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

 

Also, for the calculation, how many rounds of ranged combat would you like before the main combat begins?

[Seraphi]

I thought the weakened biosoldier rule only applied to non-mechanical races, since our replication is expensive as hell anyway. Bah.

 

Well, whatever then. There would probably be like 3 rounds of ranged combat before you got to me.

[Retech]

Sounds fair. Can you tell me what the stats of each of your mechos are?

 

First Round of Combat:

 

20 coilgun soldiers

20 bayonet soldiers

2 maser knife thingy soldiers

 

vs

 

3 Mechos with Riot Shields and Plasma Cutters

1 Mechos with Sonic Cannon

 

Casualties:

2 maser knife thingy soldiers

3 bayonet soldiers

 

3 Mechos with Riot Shields

1 Mechos with Sonic Cannon

 

This is assuming your Mechos all have Riot shields

[Seraphi]

I assume 3/3/0 or 2/2/0. I think I'll wait for confirmation from Archi though.

[archimage_a]

I would have said 1/1/0 so it really matters what you agree on. I recommend you play some sort of online game, like tic tac toe(noughts and crosses) to decide who gets deciding vote.

[Retech]

I'll play ya on funorb chess.

 

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

 

I believe all civilians are automatically 1/1/0. The reproduction cost for Mechos should be lowered though.

[Seraphi]

Tommorow, my brain isn't working at the moment.

[Retech]

Sure. What's your username? Anyways Ross, I didn't really want to be mean or stubborn towards you, that's just a result of my condition. ToinvolvedinRpggamingonafansiteofRunescapinitis.

[Retech]

How did you know? :thumbsup:

Well, it's Saint Retech now.
