Sounds good, what kind of research base, a major complex would need to have a purpose otherwise it would be public. I think we could use tokra technology to seriously increase our manufacturing capacity offworld. Underground drydocks created by new versions of the crystel technology could create large voids rapidly which could be filled with prefab dry dock facilities, on planets with Naquadah and Trinium in large volumes, taking production to the source without too much cost.

The base would be to work on a reverse engineered Cloak or something like that. perhaps even a ship. A new type of directed energy weapon, a rework of the Anti Replicator weapon to work like the Breen energy dampening weapon

Ok fella's let's not get carried away. We're trying to build a fleet first. Let's keep the stroyline chatter for another time and finish one task at a time, otherwise we'll still be discussing things in December.
Tep, we did agree earlier that yes a battle-carrier would be needed. We have set maximum sizes for each class and the BB-BBC's are set at 600mtrs. They will be the last on the list.
BC's are set at 350mtrs max
Cruiser/Escorts at 150 mtrs, which by the way is the next ship for the voting.
Dropship/Gunships at 50 mtr max, though 30 seems to be an ideal size.
The fighters have been done and finished, so can we complete the tasks at hand and then discuss other issues later. I have already posted my Cruiser/Escort some five pages back.My FF.netStories -Stargate Atlantis Allies-Colonel Ted Hasluck Bio

Not sure what that is, but a reworked version of the anti replicator weapon has been dubbed matter disruptors on GW and has been toyed about in the fleets many times. While completely plausable in the stargate universe, and pretty easy to convert, they have been deemed utterly Uber, in fact they were the only counter weapon we could think of when confronted with the utter uberness of the Swarm. A Wave weapon capable of bypassing all shields and disintegrating Matter at the subatomic level. How the ancients lost the war with the wraith with that kind of knowledge up thier sleaves is beyond me but in terms of that being the secret weapon being developed I would say a complete No, and its purely to preserve the fleets, not against the concept or weapon design because like i said its perfectly valid just beyond pointless in terms of storytelling. There is simply No defence, mount this on a cargo ship and power it by ZPM and even that ship alone would take over the universe.sigpic

Would you guys consider the Typhon as an entry for Battle Carrier? Or is it not 'Battle' enough?sigpic

Hang on a minute, can we not have posts with various classes in, let's worry about the gunships/battlecarriers or cruisers when we get to them. We are doing cruisers now, can we set a deadline for submitting cruisers, you can get as many critiques before the vote, but once the vote starts there aren't to be any other modifications.

And as I said, I was toying with the idea, which may not even turn into something viable/usable. But a more important thing is, that once it is discovered because of those 'spies' it would create an interstellar arms race just to counter the tech and make their own.

Well if there isnt Battle CRUISER option i will make Agean a Cruiser instead.
I know the idea is über, but working on something is not going to have to work out. Besides it could be nerfed in such a way that it at first really does give Earth that edge, but then their effect will deminish since counter measures are being created. So like done in Trek it at first is a real danger and then when their effect becomes less and less, it becomes just another weapon in ones arsenal.

Dave, 600mtrs was the agreed maximum size for the BB/BBC class, so anything from 450 to 600 would be ok.

that was an idea of mine too, I actually am thinking of making that base a secret shipyard and staging area for the inevitable attack by an enemy force
Surely because thanks to the UNE, any new advancements should be shared between Earth nations and their respective colonies. And with your new secret offworld bases, it's like some people just want to keep screwing everyone else.
Soon someone will have a fortress where a wannabe psycho has antigravity cells and torture aliens (Jaffa, Tok'ra or Hebridan) for informations. Just like Baal did to O'Neill the first time ...but without Daniel to help.
Hum... Maybe that should be me
And about the Tok'ra crystals, I think you have to buy them from the said Tok'ra. How are you going to explain those additional expenses to the UNE without telling them about that secret base that no one should know about?
Just KISS (Keep It Simple and Stupid) : pick an abandonned naquadah mine on a totally uninteresting planet and import some materials from Earth using a stolen Tel'tak. Between 2013 (when the gate program was revealed) and 2025, you've had enough time to build a reasonable bat-cave with all the tech stuff and the people to make it worth the trouble.La vie est une tragédie - Tout le monde meurt à la fin.
