  1. [Freeform] A Pokemon Misplaced

    [x] Try and talk with them via telepathy, you might be able to defuse the situation. Deescalation is better than escalation, and hey, you'll always be able to escalate later if deescalation doesn't work

  3. A New Tournament (Harry Potter & SG:SG1)

    Is the entire chapter meant to be italicised? It makes it rather hard to read.

  4. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    We can build more construction ships and send them to Wrele (+5 industrial capacity each), or we can build prefabs and send them to Wrele. Also, I agree, we do need to get on war footing. Many of those aliens will not be friendly. Of course, we're assuming that these aliens are telling the...

  5. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    [x] Perspective: Unfocused (Try all of the above, but with less resources for each) -[x] Preferably with a bit of extra focus on computational perspective We should explore all possibilities. Any one of the three options might work, and we don't want to over invest on the wrong one. But let's...

    Who do we send to establish communication? [x] Send a Skimmer with a comm hole to go talk to them; they've already seen you do this, so they should be a lot less likely to spook this time. Let's go out to meet them. No need to invite them any closer, and let's not scare them by moving the...

  9. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    Right, I think with those numbers, I'll also stick with 15 years and mothballing the Nomad Skipper (for use as a museum, possibly), leaving my vote as: [x] Journeyman's Lantern [x] 15 years (Final Industrial Capacity: 1164, Invested Output: 3,862, 10% chance of -Cohesion) [1] Wormhole...

  10. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    Oh, I like this: [x] Journeyman's Lantern For the buildup period, I'm leaning towards either 5 or 20 years. They're the ones with the most industrial capacity per chance of cohesion loss. I'm happy to hear arguments either way. However, I honestly think the 20 year option, with the huge...

  11. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    I think a yellow dwarf would be better. Certainly, it's a few billion years away from death (so we won't need to worry about that until we're in a position to colonise more star systems anyways), and it both has a good amount of energy and is possible to perform starlifting. Furthermore...

  12. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    Total cost: 2x Liners (8x$) 1x Construction Ship (4x$) 1x Nomad Skimmer (10x$) 1x Battlecruiser (5x$) 1x Freighter (3x$) For a total of 30x$ exactly. I'm going to voice my support for this plan. Having a capital ship in our flotilla will render us too dangerous for most pirates. Furthermore...

  13. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    There's already a mid billions, for 100x population and budget. Mid millions being 0.1x population and budget is consistent with that.

  14. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    Don't you mean "Mid millions"? Interesting build.

  15. Breakaway Civilization Quest

    I'm thinking that with a strong enough economy and a proper set of morals, a lack of cohesion can be overcome. I think the huge increase to our production will be worth the hit to cohesion, though it's not yet clear how that mechanic works yet.

  16. Breakaway Civilization Quest
