Weapons for the 303's and Daedulus

[Col. Newman]

but from a marketing point of view I think it would be a mistake for TPTB to "borrow" more ideas from Star Trek. I want Stargate to retain it's uniqueness. I always felt that the replicators in Star Trek were such a copout.

why does every one think that the TPTB copyed the replicators from the Borg god it is so annoying they might have got the idea from that but hey the reppys are totally different from the borg

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by "always." I simply said that, in theory it could be done, you just simulate the actual matter going through the gate. You deactivate either the event horizon or scanning properties of it. Then you transfer the information that would normaly be transfered to the recieveing gate detailing the matter that has entered as well as sufficient energy to complete the structure.

I was referring to this quote...

Now if we discovered some nice matter replication technology, we could have as many drones as we want. However we could always reconfigure the stargate to create matter.

The way this is phrased made it sound like what you are proposing is easy and almost commonplace at the SGC. You can understand why I was perplexed because, having seen every single episode to date of both Stargate series, I have never heard anyone once even mention the possibility of using the Stargate to "create matter."

[_Owen_]

Oh, ok, no I just meant always in the context of, if worst comes to worst we could use the Stargate because it is possible, not they allways do it at the SGC. Sorry about that.

Okay, I got ya. I've said it many times...text-only communication is very imprecise.

Ya, now if someone could create a speech forum where you can leave audio posts, that would be cool I would join in no time!

ive got an idea for a weapon the ags drone as the omnipedia calls it. if you had 20 at the front that would be scary.Bye bye wraith.

[valha'lla]

U mean the AG-3 drone the statilet weapon that danille sees in that episod when shifu is trying to teach him a lesson if so no one knows whether that tech can be created or if it was just to prove shifus point.

[_Owen_]

Lol, that network was pretty cool, but don't forget to phase shift your drones, as well as install multiple redundant shield systems, and flawless inertial dampners, even though there is no one inside, you wouldn't want the liquified naquadah to be shaken around. lol.

On aphophis supership they had the ag-3 drone.Why do you need to phase shift them just give them a cloak.

[valha'lla]

Really where did u read that?

[nimitz]

If you watch it when the weapon powers up it looks suspicously similiar and all the beams combine to form a superbolt like in the dream and finnaly the bolt is increadily powerful the same type of powerful you would expect from the ags.

A cloak can shield them from most eyesight, and from some sensors, but it will not protect, or stop weapons fire, phase-shifting would.

[nimitz]

So would a shield but good point Owen i didnt think of that.

[_Owen_]

Well, yes, a shield would always be a good back up, but if it ever failed it would leave you completley open, however, all systems have thier bugs but if they are combined the chance of failure is much, MUCH smaller.
