Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
I honestly don't think he care (besides this D-jump is only about a couple of months after FFF I don't think the resistance is created yet and even if it is, Keveak doesn't join it before fourteen years after FFF)
EDIT:
Both Moss and White are the mercenary kind to an extent and aren't sided with either (mostly because they don't know aything about Avbaroy politics, if they did they would likely sidse with the UNA though)Last edited by Mina Kobold; 2009-07-23 at 11:00 AM.

The comic explaining what Squark Iota did during those two and a half hours is up.
Drat. I forgot to properly discuss the celestial Megalodon (60 foot long Shark. They really existed!) that Squark summoned to get the Sovereign to fire its torpedoes.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
Actually, Tajirans ships do not have energy shields, since they use technology, not magic. Their hulls are simply reinforced with borgonite (a super-hard material) and Sovice nanites who can repair damage.
And the Sovereign would never fire its torpedoes at a shark, especially since they have a limited supply and a shark could never harm their hull. But, still, I'll suspend my disbelief and say the commodore was very stressed...Last edited by Mad Mask; 2009-07-23 at 12:23 PM.

Science fiction ABOUNDS with energy shields from technology, MM...
And, to be fair, a Sixty Foot long shark might be able to do some damage.
Especially considering it was a celestial Megalodon, so the smite evil on the sovice ship might do some damage, not that the commodore would no that.Steam ID: The Great Squark

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
I thought it was made of Sovice nanites...
Anyway..
Irregardless, 70 Metric tons of shark charging you will do damage even if it did break its teeth
EDIT: After a little more research on the subject, a megalodon's teeth were strong enough to cut through whale ribs without cracking, so they might do some actually do some damage.
For the record, bone, at least of the human variety, is, pound-for-pound, much stronger than concrete.Last edited by Squark; 2009-07-23 at 12:34 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
For the record, in my mind, the weapon's officer only fired a single torpedo at the megalodon, since he probably decided one torpedo would probably be sufficient in driving most predators off (those torpedoes did lay waste to an entire fleet). What blew the sovereign up was that the torpedo tubes were close enough together that they set off a chain reaction when one of them exploded inside the tubes.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
But does the Weapons Officer know that. Maybe he panicked.
Also, I thought only the Tarjians had submarines, so if another sub showed up on the sonar, why would he shoot at it?
Also, If these operate like most subs, and detect things with Sonar, an illusory sub wouldn't show up, because it doesn't actually make any noise.Last edited by BRC; 2009-07-23 at 12:42 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
I think we're just going to have to disagree about the shark, here.
A 60-FOOT LONG shark with a bite force of about 2600 atm, charging at one of the transports, could probabl capsize one of them.
Doesn't have any substance for the sound to bounce off, you mean. But the point is valid.Last edited by Squark; 2009-07-23 at 12:45 PM.

Even ignoring the facts...
Rule of Cool. 60 Foot long charging shark= Sunken boat. Because its cool.
So yeah, I think a torpedo was warranted.Steam ID: The Great Squark

Also, Torpedos are only any good against water-based targets. The entire Alphantican navy just got Kablooied. The Only other navy above Wooden Ships tech level is the Schitzians, and they're nowhere around. What exactly are they conserving their torpedoes for if not to handle last-ditch efforts by the Alphanticans to take them down by, say, summoning giant sharks.
And if they were using Sonar, they probably couldn't tell exactly what it was anyway, it could be some summoned supernarwhal with an Adamite Horn that will drill through their ship and deposit a boarding party of elite Alphantican Duskblades.
Also, How's your Guest Comic coming along Mask. Just asking because there's a 20% Chance you have me.

Just to break the conversation at hand, I thought Shades of Gray would be happy to know that while my power went out for 6 hours yesterday I drew in Deb's tail at least on the original picture.
Also, I'm working on the idea that Katya has a different outfit every episode, because I'm lame like that and I thought one I drew recently at school looked cool.Last edited by Darklord Bright; 2009-07-23 at 01:18 PM.

Anyway...
I wonder were MM got off to.
Out of curiosity, do any of you guys play the Star Wars Roleplaying Game (specifically Saga Edition) If so, would anyone be interested in doing a Dawn of Defiance game with me (unfortunately, I've already read some of the adventures for times when I've tried to set up a game at home, so I'd need to be the GM. Which is a pity, because I really want to play this character I created a while ago)Steam ID: The Great Squark

Xarty likely were protected against the spell (or it started a bit away from him like a bubble) And since we don't know much about the spell Xavik could have been thrown away instead of being vaporised.
Though I think both Falgorn and Crimson's character was unhurt enough to survive a lot more than that.Treasured Quotes
