Rapora War (OOC Discussion)

[BadSamaritan]

That was actually the first thing that crossed my mind. Becuase no matter how much that series sucked, that ship was awesome. Self-regeneration, a passive-reactive defence system, and those wicked weapons.

 

Come to think of it, I wonder if that race is ready to help fight a war?

 

EDIT: Oh yes, and would someone with access to the Hand of Thrawn Duology and the Lando Calrissian trilogy please PM me? I need soem info from those books for reference, and all my books are in storage.

[BadSamaritan]

Well, Hirotek and Athien are at Kuat now, along with the Fourth fleet, Seryk is on his way to Ord Mantell with a LOT of help, who am I forgetting???

[ADarkJedi44]

Evahe's at Kuat then? Alright, I'll go get one of the drinks with the little umbrelas in it....

[BadSamaritan]

Eveha has the fourth fleet? I though he had the third?!?! Who has the third? And second?

 

bah, Ill change it to the.... ummmm..... Sixth fleet then.

[Stellar_Magic]

Well it's time for the battle for Ord Mantell to move from the skies to the surface.

 

And it seems the Rapora have found and battered Zonoma Sekot. and the Mandalorian Fleet is about to arrive at Ord Mantell, alas the space battle has ended.

 

It seems the situation can only worsen for the GFFA from here on out. Wait a minute, where did we leave Anakin?

[BadSamaritan]

and the Mandalorian Fleet is about to arrive at Ord Mantell, alas the space battle has ended.

 

Not the whole fleet, just one warship. And trust me, one warship can be more than enough to mess up your plans.

 

A.M.W. missiles for the win, baby.

[Stellar_Magic]

What does A.M.W. stand for?

 

Antimatter Missile Warhead? Run away!!!

[BadSamaritan]

What does A.M.W. stand for?

 

Antimatter Missile Warhead? Run away!!!

 

Anti Matter Warhead. it can be mounted on any form of rocket, missile, or torpedo.

 

And yes, running might be a good idea. Like I said, Mandalorians dont play fair.

 

EDIT: And for those of you who dont remember where I could have gotten this idea from, cross reference Mako Spince and Moon of Carida. A single gram was used in that scenario. And a single gram can fit into a standard warhead.

[ADarkJedi44]

Evahe has the Fourth, yes. The third was consolidated with it. I'll consolidate a few more fleets and manuver a few things around after this, getting together a solid four.

[Stellar_Magic]

Waiting for posts...

 

Antimatter, ha! I've already got a counter for your new warheads!!! Actually I've got two! The first is that the anti-starfighter defense cannons on Raporan ships are just as effective as missile-interception batteries, by by warheads. The second are the Aklasp ships which use a graviton shield, which is the same type of shield used by everyone in Star Trek, it's the one thing that will deflect the blast without being eaten away!

 

Oh, and Aklasp and Raporan engineers are begining work on a new class of vessel, a hybrid that will certainly give you major headaches!

[ADarkJedi44]

I'm begining to wonder how I'll do anything in this RPG without losing my entire fleet, lol.

 

Evahe and friends are busy preparing the GFFA's defenses and repairing the fleets.

Not much to post about.

[BadSamaritan]

Yah there is. Launch a suprise attack somewhere. Start raiding any re-inforcements they are receiving. Harass their rear line swith hit-and-hype raids.

 

Lots of work to be done.

[ADarkJedi44]

Attacking them Rebel Alliance style would be nice, but then I might not be around to defend as they take over the Hydian Way and the entire core with a quick series of attacks.

[BadSamaritan]

With the way thigns are going, attacking alliance style is going to be our only option, becuase we wont have any bases left.

[Stellar_Magic]

Actually you've got lots of bases, just very few shipyards. The Rapora still have to secure Ord Mantell before moving on, with Han in charge of ground forces, that may take awhile. Striking at convoys and reinforcements before they arrive are the best things available to you right now.

 

BTW what do you think of my new signature?

[BadSamaritan]

The first is that the anti-starfighter defense cannons on Raporan ships are just as effective as missile-interception batteries, by by warheads.

 

It only takes one missile to wreck yur day, and your Veremere. Fire off enough of them, and they cant pick them all off.

 

The second are the Aklasp ships which use a graviton shield, which is the same type of shield used by everyone in Star Trek, it's the one thing that will deflect the blast without being eaten away!

 

Actually, those sheilds dont deflect anything, they absorb the damage, same as any other shield. But I may be wrong on that point.

 

And I could leson the aixe of the warhead, and use them on ground troops as well. But that might take 'not fair' to a whole new extreme.

[Stellar_Magic]

True, but having a couple of your own warheads blow up just a few meters out from your launch tubes is even worse.

 

Graviton shields are the one thing I've ever read that would adequeately protect a ship from your weapons. It's what trekkies have because the torps in Star Trek use antimatter in the warhead The graviton shields both deflect, reflect, and abosrb energy thrown at them. It's basically a web of shields made out of microscopic gravitic distortions.

[BadSamaritan]

True, but having a couple of your own warheads blow up just a few meters out from your launch tubes is even worse.

 

True, which is why the warheads wont activate until they are near the target. Im crazy, not stupid.

Very true. But still, they are by far the most destoructive weapon in anyones aresonal, due to the fact that they can be produced faster than any of the others. And they are exceptionally versatile.

 

And as for your sig, I like it. But what is that starfighter? A preybird?

[Trejiuvanat]

... microscopic gravitic distortions.

 

Did I hear dovin basal somewhere? Wait... That'd help the Rapora... I don't want ot help them... Forget what I said, these aren't the shields you are looking for. Move along.

[BadSamaritan]

Well, now we know what the smugglers are up to. Their old tricks for the most part.

[BadSamaritan]

OOC: No, oh no you don't, I'm not going to let you bring them into this!!!

 

What is that? Do I hear the signs of fear in the voice of the almighty Stellar Magic? Does he fear that I may have stumbled across the final downfall of the Repora? MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[Stellar_Magic]

No, I'm just afraid of having too many alien species in the RPG to keep track of.

[BadSamaritan]

Well, the odds of Lando getting ahold of Vuffi are about the same odds of Seryk beating Thrawn in a game of chess. As for Lobot, he is to get ahold of the race that built the Vegabond, but more than likely they arent ready to be involved in a full scale war. They may not have even been awakened fully yet.

 

I just wanted to remind you that I know enough about Star Wars to mess with your plans if need be. Someone has to keep you in line.

[Stellar_Magic]

Some new Rapora Warriors for the TC.

At the top is Raporan Councilor Revak Valar, head of the Raporan Diplomatic Core.

 

On the bottom is Captain Kask Clawdar, commander of the Timeless One's personal bodyguard. Many of his subordinates believe him to be insane.

[BadSamaritan]

If it wouldnt be to much trouble, what is the location of Eveha right now? He and Hirotek need to have a talk.

 

Also, I need to know of an experienced fighter squadron which can be spared. Obviously, Rouge is out of the question, but perhaps Jansons and his Yellow Aces are available, or the Twin Suns? Or even High Flight, if they still exist. I want veterns for my newest plan, not rookies.
