Beyond Alpha Centauri:::: Discussion Thread 4

[Kassiopeia]

Randius: I like the idea. Just remember to keep the two threads strictly apart (same applies to people reading it).

[History Guy]

Well...I guess I've got a post coming now, then. The Pirates may have won this fight, but they neglected to mention the nearby fighter transport convoy, which has a lot of fighters and has not come in contact with the Pirates, and so it can't be that the algorithim has rendered them useless. I guess my next post will deal with them. What should I do, Mellian? Either I can drive off the Pirates, who will leave for Terran land, or the Pirates can hold.

BTW, on Sym, I seem to have made a monster...

[Kassiopeia]

Oh yes, Sym! Egads! I discussed with Franky here about what would his predicament be. Are we sticking to the plan, my dear chap?

[History Guy]

Kass- Guess so. I give you carte blanche on whatever you decide for Mr. Sym, as long as my guy gets to the Hive, and becomes a more interesting figure!

LMP- OK, here's what I'll do. The Pirates have sent a portion of the fleet to go secure a nearby station, which they take to be unguarded. However, it is far from unguarded now, as a transport of fighters has come in, and knows of the Pirate attack, and blunts the assault. However, before a second Pirate attack can be launched, the cease-fire orders are given by the Terrans and the Morgans. How's that?

[Frankychan]

Dang, I seem to miss everyone when the conversations get going...

Kass-Sounds good. The plans for Mr. Sym should remain the same. I have an idea *CENSORED* safety of *CENSORED* Hive---until Mr. Ku (those damn Morgan's!) get him!

Mr. President-so you noticed my demotion, huh? Well....lets just say that when you're on top, you tend to attract unwanted attention. I like to sit back and watch stuff happen...then launch my coup!

Thanks for the compliment.

Well, it looks like its almost crunch time. Next week is the official start of "hell week" for me so if you see me here, it'll be somethin'!

[History Guy]

Bully for Mr. Ku! Bully for Morgan!

[Frankychan]

Bah! If you ask me, it's Nwabudike Morgan who is the real despot here.

I just noticed now that if it's true in the profiles, General Tacticus is the first of us to be on Apolyton and frankychan is the last. (looking at the time zone difference). So if he's in Australia, he's the first. Since I'm in Hawaii, I'm the last.....that sucks!

Anyway, I'm just babblin. Go YANG!

[Mr. President]

Funny, the General officially lives in the same town as me and he gets on earlier. I'll blame it on my university classes.

[Kassiopeia]

FRAAANKYY! It was supposed to be a surprise! :sulks:
Okay, it's fine...

*Ugh!*

Whoops! Sorry, I'll go and edit it right now!

[Mellian]

History... okay, but if that happens in Cyclanid, that is where the Escort Carrier of Pirate fighters are..and they are adept with fighters. where would the station be in the system as well?

-Mellian

[Mellian]

Sovereign... what your describing is pretty much Phase Cloak... where the ship phases toanother plane, yet still there... also able to go through other ships and so on. That doesn't involve Quantum i think

-Mellian

[GeneralTacticus]

Talking about Cloaking, what kind of technology would that require? My guess would be Photon/Wave Mechanics, or whatever it is, letting you manipulate the light to go around instead of bouncing off.

[Kassiopeia]

Franky, thanks

I'm really talented at getting a ****load of stuff on my back. Making up a totally illogical and inane plot to a pal's QBasic game; writing BAC; sharing the world to posters of Apolyton and redrawing the world map (Franky, Hawaii's already gone, sorry )

But... no school today!

[Frankychan]

i was under the impression that Hive cloaking technology actually did allow the object to "disappear" visually....maybe I was wrong?
