okay..here we go...
would have posted before, but have been busy..read the replies, and digested the info...
I don't want to incite a family row either..so lets leave that one...yes the story means a lot, because it makes people happy when reading it, and I like writing..
Yes, I should definitely have mentioned the date aspect..my bad that one...the asgard tech is necessary, but I am already working on limitations...
I can also be hypocritical myself..which is why I tend to listen to my wife more than usual..she does speak logical..and logic I can do..I just don't like presents here and there, gift wrap this..anything for a better life...
The asgard intervention is completely necessary..they are the only race (aside from the ancients) who have technology that allows them to synthesise whatever they are designing...we've seen it when the anti replicator weapon was synthesised by the transporter system (i think he used words to that effect)..asgard intervention is used not only against the wraith, but also the ori..hell, we need it badly...
I'll have to split the time up in the story..it does seem like minutes..I was thinking about 6 months between his first visit, so he wouldn't arouse any suspicions with the high council..that I think is better...
the energy weapons carter would have figured out..we all know that..thor was uncharacteristically helpful..lets leave it at that..the super armour is courtesy of the tokra..the power sources...needs thinking about..I came up with nerus being interrogated quite nicely, and he gives up all the info on goauld power generation used on there ships..which would be good..but asgard power generation is so much better..and cleaner..and really nice..besides, why go goauld when you can go grey? looks much better....I'll have to increase the time for this anyway..just need a good plot to take the time..
thor was not his usual self..like I said, he saw an opportunity and ran with it...and nobody would argue with him..I don't think approaching the IOA would be good to to reform the gate program..the countries signatory to the gate treaty would be better...why go down when you can go straight to the source? the reason it worked so well is because nobody wanted to argue with him, and they are more used to dealing with paperwork..not being beamed out into a clandestine meeting, where they can say nothing but yes to thor..I should write that in somewhere as well..
The Ori want the Asgard out of the equation because they give the SGC tech that makes them resist that much more..The Ori troops are beginning to meet real resistance on ground invasions of planet, because the SGC is getting involved...they have certain weapons and tactics that the crusaders have never really even seen before..and they are not used to being pushed back. they are used to just riding in and winning..
I am writing in some planetary assault scenarios, which I could use some help with..if anybody is interested....hint hint...
I wanted kull armour on the ships, because the daedalus always gets bashed up in it's encounters with the wraith..the plan was for them to get armoured first, to test it out before rolling it out across the fleet..the current power generation capabilities of that ship aren't very good..takes time to build up sufficient shield strength..the armour will help in that respect...the 302 craft need it badly..
Of course I'm impulsviely defending..wouldn't you if you were "Attacked first"? there is no real conclusion at the end of the story..the asgard are in a state of civil war, meaning no help indefinitely from them...so no contact for a while...all we can now do is build more ships, which we need badly..the current Daedalus class can't have ion generators..they are too small for it..so they use something else instead until they get bigger ships...which won't be for quite a while..instead of having smaller numbers of large vessels, I would rather have larger numbers of smaller vessels..and a few big ones..which will be the new fleet structure in another story I have..
The transition to the antartic base will take sometime, which I will be visiting again anyhow in the story..am adding bits here and there as I go along..am currently writing the test flights of the new 302 craft....okay so far, still needs some oomph...
The other reason thor beamed them all up, is to avoid the pitfalls of the postal system..he wanted it done there and then, they all listened and said cool..he also had the necessary stuff for them to do so..and it worked...
The synthesis part..I'm sure Thor said something about it in that episode where the replicator disruptor was made..I doubt a race as advanced as the Asgard would carry caches of materials on the ships that they currently use, as it seems they can synthesise anything materials wise anyhow..and we do know about the correlation between matter and energy...it would be a simple matter for the asgard to simply create the atomic structure when needed..
Nope, you haven't offended me..but you have given me some ideas for the story...cheers..
You never did answer the question though..what did you think about the ship sketches? That was what I was after...if anybody wants to have a go at modelling them..cool..be my guest...
cheers
