Note: This is NOT an open roleplay. Only post comments here - no RPing. =P

This is pretty much a unique way of saying, that I'll try to get Spacefleet into the next guild wars once the current one is over. ^_^ As it stands, the current GW plot is too involved for any of us to jump in as a Spacefleet official.

I'll post here again if I get any updates on the status of Spacefleet in the next GW.

[zhunter]

Sounds like you definitely got a jump on me. Nice job, Strife. I look forward to the next Guild Wars because of Spacefleet.

MACROSCOPE I was talking about those in math class yesterday! I said there should be a macroscope to be the counterpart to a microscope and help you view objects that are really big! And later Allen said to Nicole, "You're so gross that if I took your grossness and put it in a box, we'd need a macroscope to see it." And I said we needed a macroscope to see his big head and we all laughed ^_^ it was fun.

Silly, macroscopic off-topicness aside, that was very... intriguing.

Completely by surprise? Got it. *leans out window* HEY GINZ GUESS WHAT WE'RE DOING *brick'd* nevermind.

I can't wait for Guild Wars v.2. It shall be most fun.

I think the next Guild Wars will be in a few months? August or September or something like that. This is going to be very interesting...

Hehehehehe! *schemes*

You do realise, all of you, that The Knights were my first guild, therefore I will not help you take 'em down...However, My spacefleet persona is seperate with my knight one.

...MWA-MWAHA-MWAHAHA!

[Amneiger]

Keng - Don't forget that we can put actual buildings on the planet as well. Say, research centers and trading posts and launch pads. And they'll all be nice and innocent buildings of course

Awesome! =3

Anyway, it seems like things are calming down in the current plot. so I do hope the next guild wars begins soon. I start college on August 26, so I don't know how that'll affect my free time online. x3

The next Guild Wars will start after July most likely. That's how it's been concluded thus far.

Hey, I've never Guild-Wars'd before (I've never been in a Guild before), so I've got a few questions/ideas.

Can you set up secret codewords and stuff in the case of an "emergency"? For example:

{The Ninjas surrounded [guildmember one], threatening him with all manner of sharp weaponry.
[guildmember one](into radio): "PARAKEET!"
[guildmember two]: Drops down in a ship, picks up [guildmember one] and flies off.}

Also, couldn't we get all of our Capital Ships in strategic positions, and bombard the planet with heavy ordnance, desolating the other guilds without even entering the atmosphere? Cause that'd be a nice strategic advantage.

But, more seriously, can we use spaceships at all, even if only for strafing runs at ground targets? It seems to me that that would even us out a little, and with the Mages' magic and Ninja superhuman skills it might not be too unfair for us (And, depending on the Pirates aim, even they could take on our fighters. I don't know about the knights, though).

You should encounter little organized resistance because the Pfhor are preoccupied.

I've been introducing them to the magic of orbital bombardment.

--Durandal, Marathon 2

LET US BOMB EVERYTHING PLZ.

But seriously, even if we don't get spaceships we can just manufacture a robot army to obliterate everything for us. And even if we don't have that, we have our high-tech armor, laser rifles, radar, infrared goggles...*babbles on and on*

Yes, the research centers where we study the possibilities of plasmo-napalm weapons, the trading posts where we smuggle weapons out of the other guilds, and the launch pads were our warships take off. All of which will be innocent. *evil grin*

Let's not make a massive army of NPCs K? We're up against a host of main characters that can't die. Every drone will be obliterated without even a minor injury to the ennemy guild members within the first 4 pages of their introduction. It'd be a waste of rescources and time. And no giant robots either. Just because it's the size of pluto dosen't mean it's going to be invincible. I suggest instead we create 3-5 small agile robots with powerful shields and precision weaponry. If we make it small enough, say... gnome size, then no one will even be able to hit it. Of course to small and we won't be able to install a powerful enough shield to withstand magical bombarbment. So I'd say we're looking at something around the size of a medium-large dog.

And I like the idea of code words

How about a few very tiny spy bots, smaller than somebody's hand? We could add cloaking fields to make them invisible and then add that stuff they use to make stealth fighters not show up on radar, then add a camera, microphone and uplink. Real-time surveillance of anywhere we manage to put them.

As for small agile robots...I could pull a few minitanks off guard duty, and then add a laser cannon.

Actually, giving them the ability to teleport at will would be pretty nasty too. Just phase in circles around everybody. Although that might be too overpowered...

[zarikrahia]

Exactly, Amnei. Too overpowered will make the other guilds annoyed. Every guild has it's weaknesses, like the knights, in the last one, trusted Shinobi too much. So we have to have a weakness...

Hmm...Prehaps, being tech based, we do not understand magic that well? That'd be a good, plausible flaw.

No worries, the secrets safe with me.
