Gateworld Virtual Fleet 4.0 - Discussion thread

[Major Mike David]

So kind of like the Aschen, Tollan and Hebridian but more bad ass? How is that possible? (Well other then the Tollan, they were kind of anti-bad ass )

In a sense yes, haha. Oh its possible. Lol right.

I'm working on trying to get some good images for these guys for their ships and so forth. I'm happy that I have tons of albums of crazy art to choose from. I know a lot of people on deviant and what not so a lot of these guys don't care I use their art, lol. They know that I always distribute out their name and credited them when I share their art, lol.

It's a toss up between the Tka and the Afar right now, through neither is very involved on an overt level, they're acting more like the what you would expect from the First One in B5.

Oh okay. Who are the Afar? And the Tka, is that their legit name or are you using an acronym? These guys sound very interesting. I got to read more up on them. lolz

technically if you start them at the Roman period with all that knowledge they're advanced enough... that is, 2000 years from the roman period with a roman-inspired theological system. or roman-era egyptians. or a mix of them all. greek work too. perhaps constantinople people work too. they were sufficiently advanced.

Don't worry braski. I've got it taken care of, lolz.

i refurbished the LA on the idea that, basically the people at power were too stupid and more intelligent, more competent beings would have little trouble replacing them.

Lol, niceee. I always wondered why weren't the LA more badass, lol.

Well I wouldn't say they are the most powerful but they are some of the most powerful in the milky way. That's why I like this fleet though everyone has strengths and weaknesses that make them almost equal because of different abilities, size, and technology to make so everyone still can be powerful

True that, true that.


EDIT: Screw that image. Good'ol Tom noticed something that I didn't, haha.

Come on Killman, let's not kid ourselves, the only other party that comes close to the Afar and Tka are the Wraith with their biotech construction. In terms of the matter, energy and information available to each race, there's no comparison (yet, the rest of the galaxy should start catching up now that the galaxy is a bit less hectic.

Short for Tka-Tko-Tka, basically the closest approximation of their name that I figure somebody with a larynx instead of mandibles can make. Tka, does anyone remember where... what's his name put the Afar stuff?

Oh yeah Mike, please contribute to the wiki magic.

P.S. Here is a little spoiler of what the Stars Ascendancy fleet looks like when in space combat:

[Lt. Col. Mcoy]

Haha, indeed. So what is the most powerful race in this fleet?

Depends on how you measure power. Alfar in terms of brute force, Tka-tko-tka in terms of intelligence, but neither really use them to create areas of influence, so they may have very little actual "power". The Jaffa have large territory, but can they hold it? Maybe, maybe not. Earth has advanced tech, but very few ships -- however, our influence is huge due to our fight against the Goa'uld and Ori. The Ori followers have the most advanced tech, but they don't really understand most of it and aren't doing much. The Wraith and Jotnar have the best war machines, I'd say, but they're locked in a cold war so they can't affect much now. Oh, and there's also the Shrin'yar, but who knows what they're doing ... (Well, other than myself. )

So really, it depends on what you mean by "power".


As for the time-line, I find searching for "time-line" works wonders.


And I can't even make heads or tails of that picture, so I can't really say whether it violates natural physics ... to complicated.

Ah okay. Cool. Good choice in name. It aint bad. I'll check out the link now...

Oh yeah Mike, please contribute to the wiki magic.

Lol, what the? What is this website? haha. Its cool but what is it?

Oh quit being so stingy. lol jk

Oh hell no they aint Germans. No. lol

Oh okay that makes a lot of sense. Thanks.

Smart a$$. Of course you're going to put "timeline" in the search, lol

Dadgummit, you guys are going to hurt my head someday, lol... WAIT... I think yall already have.

Here, this is a better image of what their ships look like. These are the Dauntless-class Battlecruisers soaring past the planet Seresia.

An endless source of pop culture entertainment my friend, look up Standard Sci Fi Setting.

Oh quit being so stingy. lol jk

Oh hell no they aint Germans. No. lol

Really? 'Cuz those look a lot like Luftwaffe insignia on the wings.

They're doing something a bit more energetic that "soaring" judging from those missile trails.

Lol, kk give me a minute, haha.

Haha, holy crap you're right. I never even noticed that they were Luftwaffe insignias. I saw the insignia but I never once thought much about what they were at the time. That sir is something to pay attention to in the future! lol Thanks for noticing that. I guess that pic is a *scratch off my list of images* lol.

Haha, no those aren't missile trails, those are Fighters flying with their engines burning an exhaust trail that of course dissipates immediately in space. The artist didn't give to much emphasis on the fighter design for this image because he was focusing on the main capital ships shown in this image. lol

[Lt. Col. Mcoy]

In honor of Mike's return, I have (finally) posted a new chapter of A Shattered Visage!

[fugiman]

It's great to see the activity of the fleet pick up again and it's really great to see an old friend and its even better to read Mcoy's new story.

I have been waiting so long Mcoy

[fugiman]

Mike maybe the Nazi found some old goa'uld or ancient tech (they did find the stargate)

Then somehow a group of Nazi and soldiers were transported to a different planet (maybe the stargate) where a civilization was already in place. The Nazi sent some of their top leaders, a battalion of soldiers, and some of their top scientists in hopes of finding new tech. When the Nazi arrive they found a world once ruled by the goa'uld and there is plenty of goa'uld tech lying around. The Nazi enslave the current humans on the planet and using the new technology progressed themselves further then before. This was they have about a 60+ year head start on trying to figure out stargate related tech.

I mean you don't have to do this but I thought that would be a cool way to keep the Luftwaffe insignias but really do whatever you want. When you only have 3 hours of sleep in your system you get crazy ideas

Oh thanks bro. I appreciate it.

TIME FOR SOME READING! YEAH! lolz

Indeed, I agree.

Haha, no thank you. Rather not. LOLZ. But great idea though. Btw, that reminds me of Iron Sky... lol
EDIT: I'm going with that idea, lolz

But to everyone though, check out these flags for the Ascendancy.

Spoiler:

Stars Ascendancy Banner


Stars Ascendancy Naval Banner


Stars Ascendancy Starfighter Corps Banner


I'm currently working on the Ascendancy Guard and Army banners. Tell me what you guys think of these so far. P.S. I didn't make the first banner, that is made by a guy I know on deviant. He makes fractals and weird crap. So I'm using one of his made up banners that he made for fun, which is what I'm using as the official flag of the Stars Ascendancy.

Sh!t! You know what bro. I love you right now. I'm going with that idea. Except their going to be another faction of mine. Thanks for the idea. The credit goes to you! haha

As I posted the link to the Iron Sky trailer, I'll do so again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KEueJnsu80
And here is trailer two link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeAfoiN5SDw

TIME FOR SOME SPACE NAZI WRITING TOO! WOOT WOOT! FUGI I'm a machine spurting with ideas right now! Dude, you and I can make collaborate on creating this race! OMG IDEAS!

[Major Mike David]

Just finished reading A Shattered Visage. It was good. I enjoyed it. Nice job Mcoy.

[fugiman]

Hey man its all yours so do whatever you want. So do the Nazis or don't but either way if you need any help let me know, I would gladly help out where I can and with just about anything. So I would be glad to help in anyway you want buddy

[Major Mike David]

Hey man its all yours so do whatever you want. So do the Nazis or don't but either way if you need any help let me know. I would be glad to help
