Forum Games and Roleplaying / Re: Arks Race - Consortium Ark (Jump 0, Revision)
« on: July 13, 2018, 10:06:15 pm »
our revision needs to go toward resource system, if we don't put it there we will be making 200 hydrogen and consuming 250 (assuming we run both the fusion plant and the stellarator right now if we just upgrade to the stellarator we would have an income of 50, not so nice)
We would also have all the power in the world if we did.

The saker is Cool, low fire rate and doesn't do good damage to unarmoured modules. Can be improved.
Another revision to consider is armour for key modules like the generator, that 150% damage after a battle is going to be murder on our repair budget.

I personally prefer the Laceration, I Just put together the holoforge plan for people who would prefer the energy weapons but agreed with the other two points.

Sounds good, I'll replace the kestral.

EDIT:We need to be very careful with advanced plastics, or do our absolute best to cut them out of our designs entirely, due to the fact that we can't make more and we need to recycle any that we use to recoup them into the resource pool. A Salvage Ship-based off the miners or A ship module for that purpose Should be something that we look at next turn.

Hmm, Not sure I like the Proposals right now.

Proposal: Heating The Forge.
-3 Dice: P-01 Stellarator
-3 Dice: FE-J0 "Extreme Excavation" Blast Mining System
-3 Dice:FE-J0 "Laceration" Shrapnel Cannon
--Save 1 Dice for Revision Phase

Proposal: Heating The HoloForge
-3 Dice: P-01 Stellarator
-3 Dice: FE-J0 "Extreme Excavation" Blast Mining System
-3 Dice:'Saker' Laser Turret
--Save 1 Dice for Revision Phase

I Like the Power system in PPP, but I don't like the lack of a mining system in the proposal. For the last design I could go either way, With Either the Laceration (which can be used as a flak cannon to kill small craft and missiles due to the fact it a giant Shaped shrapnel bomb) or the Kestrel, as both Will provide our ships protection from Missle fire from the enemy ship. Also, Plan PPP has no Dice allocation.

FE-J0 "Laceration" Shrapnel Cannon:
The Laceration is a weapon designed to damage unarmoured hull components,  Unarmoured hull and any for of launched craft that the corporate scum might create is their attempt to stop us .
The laceration Fires a reasonable large munition, the size of the average mans torso, This munition is a shaped explosive charge, designed to detonate upon impact with a target or after travelling a set distance (typically after a few kilometers of flight depending on how near the enemy target is) Upon detonation the laceration munition propels hundreds of pieces of shrapnel, with the intent to shred unarmoured targets and fliers. The charge's effect has been compared to a shotgun shell by some of the design team.
The blast is shaped so that all shrapnel that comes off of the munition has no ability to flew backward, and thus back towards the Ark.

Early design meant to mangle unarmoured Weapon systems and hulls, while later it can double as a anti fighter/drone weapon system.
I agree we need better Mining systems. We could also serve to increase the effectiveness of our life-support, shouldn't be too hard.

Considering an underground Hydroponic bunker. Try to ensure nogrania has food even in the worst case.
Or a bigger bunker complex with hydroponic included to help save civi's

OWS - Evil eye of Ba’al
(Organic weapon system)

The evil eye was created as an industrial tool, meant for cutting heavy metal and Ultra-tough organic materials in construction and manufacturing. To do this heavy cutting work the eye of Ba’al Creates a beam in order to melt and cut the material in question.

This process is focused around a large sequence of specialized Organs, each of them the size of a Liir head. These organs all contain a set of Cells, created to have powerful fluorescent proteins; these proteins all serve as a gain medium for optical amplification. These Green Fluorescent Proteins combined with emitted light create a powerful laser that is visible to the naked Liir eye even when emitted from the individual cells. These beams look green because of the protein used as the medium.

The powerful Laser that these cells emit, is then concentrated by the organ that they are mounted inside in a dizzying array of Strand weaving skill. All of this power is then emitted from the tip of the organ as an even stronger and more coherent beam. The multitude of lasers that are being emitted from these specialized organs are then concentrated together once again through a series of lenses and reflective surfaces to ensure the resulting Final beam remains cohesive even as its released from the final lens of the weapon, ensuring the beams cutting power is fully concentrated into a single powerful beam and very little is lost before striking the target. The first design implementation of these converted industrial tools are expected to be mounted on small ship-based mountings as a weapon against enemies of the Liir Biocollective.

Draft 2 for a Biolaser for next turn. We really need a weapon system. It should be scalable for infantry and ground combat.
EDIT: Draft 3 after Blood's Feedback. I would like to thank him for the feedback.

Voyeur Recon equipment:
The rhino is a poor combat platform, But it is a unique existence right now. The ability to see the enemies movements and plans with the eye of god enable unparallel levels of intelligence for Generals and planners on the ground. Any general knows the importance of intelligence, and the ability to provide that intelligence in a form that is currently uncontested is very important.
The recon kit consists of A set of maps, A camera, Binoculars, A notebook and a set of pencils.

Really basic write up for a recon kit.

Honestly, The rhino is not really something to mount a weapon on.
Actually, Since our victory isn't only determined by Victory in combat but glory, Getting camera equipment to enhance the rhinos usefulness as a recon plane might be good, That was one of the uses of early planes that cemented them for use.
If not, We should work on a new biplane, The rhino will not be viable for very long for any purpose.
