(slightly singed? you'd think he would've fixed that before coming on the mission) *alex appears a moment later in a swirl of golden lightstreaks* (KT starfleet transporter effect, in case anyone forgot; just gold instead of white)
-
alex: you really think it's going to be that straightforward? i don't know if you know of our reputation or not, but...
-
(*sprays thread*)
-
they HAD been using them for years - constitution class ships were already decades old by the time discovery started
-
and retconned out after TNG
-
yeah, they could've just set up orbital arcologies, like stellaris
-
everything dwemer and clockwork is basically steampunk, and steampunk generally falls on the sci-fi side of speculative fiction depending on who you talk to...so i'd say it qualifies
-
(come on, someone DO SOMETHING!)
-
who wouldn't want to retire to a planet where you literally CANNOT DIE?
-
one portion of early elder scrolls - which admittedly, is currently dubious canon because it's never been mentioned past that point...of course, neither has the deity ebonarm, but i assume THAT is still canon - had mentions of both the imperial legion and altmer having something akin to space travel, and even having moon…
-
yeah, i think CBS has totally given up on making their own maps at this point and are just using star chart's stuff, then modifying as appropriate...which is nice, because it means systems and sectors now have CONSISTENT locations
-
(*continues jiggling thread*)
-
yeah, that pretty much describes might and magic - if you don't know the overarching lore of the series, you would easily be fooled into thinking the game series is pure fantasy...like i was with M&M6 - right up until i got access to the 'oracle' under free haven
-
they ALREADY have no value - check the market; you can buy entire stacks of most purples for pennies
-
(*jiggles thread with stick*)
-
(kind of hard to know when one doesn't even bother answering messages for weeks at a time)
-
(close enough - we only need a snip 'n tuck anyway)
-
(yes; one of the ones who start with A)
-
(it was a joke...hopefully oh rattler, you know you're the one with the xenobiologist character - while we're all waiting on west, hows about we snippety-do-dah that tribble?)
-
(either in the hospital or, given how often he ends up there, dead)
-
rakesh: *interjecting on the conversation for the first time since arriving* if the hur'q show up here, they will regret having done so
-
alex: are you expecting problems? i'm not detecting any hur'q on long-range sensors
-
also, you can cure the dependency on white entirely by finishing Home
-
alex: resources are self-sustaining once the initial field has been built, because every ship destroyed can provide raw material for dozens, hundreds or even thousands of new mines depending on the size of the ship
-
well, evade target lock doesn't seem to be classed as a control power despite having a disable as part of its effects...but IT definitely SHOULD be proccing it
-
alex: only problem with that...the citizens of the federation barely know about most of the stuff starfleet's faced in the past few years, klingons, undine and iconians notwithstanding - they start seeing minefields go up around major planets, they're going to know something's up, and they'll start panicking
-
(i mean...seriously - this is the 25th century; smart mines are a thing you notice the ones you deploy in STO never go after allied ships?)
-
alex: good question...i could understand them not using planetary shields before now because i only just provided the tech, along with the means to construct zero-point modules to power them, during the iconian war, but self-replication tech has been around for decades now and mines can be made to discriminate - they have…
-
alex: well...i'm actually already using the technology - all my major worlds are protected by self-replicating, cloaked minefields like the one deployed by DS9 during the war
-
alex: i hope the ships sent in for those probing raids were unmanned...
