00:01.29 | Hachiman | Cool |
00:03.01 | Wormy | Just what Tek's burns need |
00:04.06 | TekDroid | Yeah. I was going to say something but the phrasing was coming out awkward. XF |
00:04.09 | TekDroid | *XD |
00:04.34 | Wormy | pats Tek on the back. At least he can still smile |

00:19.38 | GD12 | agentsleepr who are thou |
00:20.06 | Hachiman | That's drom |
00:20.47 | GD12 | I see |
00:24.07 | TekDroid | I pulled up my Katar map on my new laptop, I can already see a significant difference between the 1080 and 767. |
00:24.11 | TekDroid | *768 |
00:29.44 | Wormy | If anyone wants to send messages, sed them to Wormy_away (desktop) |
00:33.15 | TekDroid | Alright, time to see if EA support can help me with my missing Sppre codes. I don't feel like digging through my registry. |
00:34.04 | MasterMachine | Good luck Tek... |
00:34.32 | TekDroid | Logging on IRC on PC to share any good moments. XD |
00:34.56 | *** join/#sporewiki Tek0516 (63f2fa7d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.99.242.250.125) |
00:36.15 | TekDroid | This will either work, or be hilarious and show terrible tech support. |
00:36.54 | TekDroid | Too bad it's a webchat, won't be able to tell if it's a center in Asia. :P |
00:42.35 | MasterMachine | I wonder if Asians/Indians make "This is being sold to Americans, can you believe their accent?" jokes xD |
00:45.30 | TekDroid | ...they're asking for my full name. |
00:47.19 | TekDroid | Looking at the window, this is a generic support center with EA as a client. |
00:48.22 | TekDroid | "sales.liveperson.net" |
00:49.00 | Monet_ | http://spacer176.deviantart.com/art/Concept-Body-glove-and-combat-hardsuit-477684861 drew this this morning, tomorrow I might see about making a colour version |
00:51.24 | Tek0516 | ...I think the guy only gave me Spore for Origin, nothing about the actual code. -.- |
00:52.44 | GD12 | looks good |
00:54.12 | Tek0516 | I saw that, looks good. |
00:56.41 | Monet_ | I'd say the fucntional look is either deceptively simple or a continuation of the ITN's main philosophy of keeping tp ractical designs. |
00:56.49 | Monet_ | Or both |
00:58.02 | Monet_ | Plus I wanted to strike a balance between something that is both formidable when worn and robust enough to mass-produce in huge quantities. |
00:58.28 | GD12 | makes sense |
00:58.37 | GD12 | practicality and power |
01:00.43 | Monet_ | And something that doesn't break easily. |
01:00.54 | Monet_ | Its a tricky series ot balance |
01:03.35 | Monet_ | When I showed it to a relative he suggested that there could be a built-in measure that causes the fusion core to go critical in the event of the wearer's death. |
01:04.01 | Tek0516 | After trying to figure out what the support guy was saying (basically him assuming I used Origin and planned to in the future), I figured it out on my own. XD |
01:04.02 | GD12 | that sounds very smart |
01:04.28 | GD12 | that makes melee combat for heir opponents more difficult then |
01:05.06 | Monet_ | It increases close-combat difficulty and deprives the enemy of a body and armour set to study |
01:07.38 | Monet_ | A bit like how the guns used by aliens in the Xcom series self-disassemble upon the death of their wielders. |
01:20.39 | Monet_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Draconid_Imperium/Military#Hardsuits there we go, mentioned in the fourth paragraph |
01:23.39 | MasterMachine | I just found out that SAO has season two out after an eternity of suffering and waiting. -disapears into the world of anime- |
01:23.48 | Hachiman | Ew SAO |
01:24.17 | Machine_Away | Hachi, I will start a war over SAO. It's better than 90% of anime I've watched. |
01:24.28 | Hachiman | You clearly haven't watched any good anime then |
01:24.32 | Hachiman | :p |
01:25.01 | Machine_Away | Let me guess, your idea of "good anime" is "gore, gore, gore, blood, and lots of murder" |
01:25.18 | Hachiman | Not entirely but SAO just gets so many things wrong for me, much more than other anime |
01:25.19 | Machine_Away | So basically Deadmen Wonderland |
01:25.25 | Hachiman | Ew Deadman Wonderland a shit |
01:25.26 | Monet_ | Let's keep this conversation civilised shall we? |
01:25.30 | Machine_Away | lol hachi xD |
01:25.38 | Machine_Away | Hachi, what do you like then? |
01:26.04 | Hachiman | JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Hellsing Ultimate, Shingeki no Kyojin, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Fullmetal Alchemist (Brotherhood) |
01:26.12 | Machine_Away | O.O |
01:26.13 | Hachiman | Anything that can hold a compelling story and be full of action |
01:26.35 | Machine_Away | I like every single one of those you listed that I've watched, which is everything but JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. |
01:26.47 | Machine_Away | Hellsing Ultimate is probably top 3-4 best. |
01:26.57 | Hachiman | Aye Hellsing's great |
01:26.59 | Machine_Away | FMAB is definitly a top 10ner |
01:27.09 | Monet_ | Its all sunjective really. |
01:27.13 | Hachiman | TTGL will always be #1 for me though |
01:27.30 | Machine_Away | SnK could use a better plot at this point, and TTGL is without a doubt the best for it's class. |
01:27.58 | Hachiman | I'm certain SnK is going to deliver if you read the manga |
01:28.07 | Machine_Away | Personally I'm a fan of Durarara and Bucanno. |
01:28.15 | Hachiman | Need to watch Bucanno |
01:28.19 | Machine_Away | SnK's magna has lost a decent part of it's plot tbh |
01:28.21 | Monet_ | Yes you do |
01:28.38 | Hachiman | SnK is getting hype-y the way I see it |
01:28.52 | Machine_Away | Agreed. |
01:28.54 | Hachiman | Everything's falling into place |
01:29.06 | Machine_Away | But even so, it needs a more... stable plot. |
01:29.15 | Hachiman | I like how unstable it is |
01:29.18 | Hachiman | It keeps me on edge |
01:29.21 | Machine_Away | They went from titans to kings to titans, to a psuedo civil war thing lol |
01:29.46 | Hachiman | Anywho brb |
01:30.09 | Machine_Away | As for Bucanno... that is one of the best I've seen, you will DEFINITLY want to watch it - though the plot is somewhat loose and a tad bit confusing. |
01:30.25 | Machine_Away | It's one of those anime where you're like "Holy shit so that's what this was!" near the end lol |
01:30.42 | Machine_Away | -properly vanished to SAO- |
01:38.42 | TekDroid | Ok, Spore installed and patched okay... |
01:40.21 | TekDroid | My creations and saves aren't showing up though... |
01:40.49 | TekDroid | (Yes, I copied them over) |
01:44.23 | TekDroid | Ah, cleared a new folder for saves on install... |
01:58.12 | DrodoEmpire | So that was a fun game of matchlock spamming simulator. |
01:58.15 | DrodoEmpire | :P |
01:58.33 | TekDroid | lol |
01:58.57 | TekDroid | Seeing how viable line was in Shogun 2? :P |
01:59.21 | DrodoEmpire | Nah, just playing the Otomo's primary strategy |
01:59.48 | TekDroid | I'm assuming it's heavy in European weaponry? :P |
01:59.51 | DrodoEmpire | That is early game spamming imported matchlock ashigaru and yari ashigary |
01:59.54 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
01:59.57 | DrodoEmpire | *ashigaru |
02:00.06 | TekDroid | Ah. |
02:00.13 | DrodoEmpire | As I describe them; They're Jesus-lovin', gun-totin' Japanese |
02:00.34 | DrodoEmpire | Being christian and getting matchlocks literally from day one |
02:05.25 | TekDroid | lol |
02:05.52 | TekDroid | Otomo start with a 100% Christian province, don't they? |
02:06.10 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
02:06.16 | DrodoEmpire | And a second one that's mostly christian |
02:07.12 | TekDroid | Kyushu does seem to be a good starting place overall, especially if you plan to go Christian. |
02:08.36 | DrodoEmpire | I usually make an alliance with Ito at day one, fortify Buzen (their second province that has a has a strait into Honshu) with extra troops from the capital, blockade the strait so Ouchi can't attack and let Shoni invade Buzen (you'll almost definitely win if you fortified correcrly |
02:08.56 | DrodoEmpire | It is nice; Though its distance from Kyoto can make it a challenge |
02:09.07 | DrodoEmpire | *that has a |
02:17.21 | DrodoEmpire | Making all of the different infantry denominations might be a bit daunting. :P |
02:17.29 | DrodoEmpire | For the warfare page |
02:18.36 | DrodoEmpire | Right now I'm basically thinking of boiling it down to; Light, Line, Heavy, Marine, and Mechanized. |
02:18.45 | TekDroid | Hurray! GA is working! |
02:18.48 | DrodoEmpire | :D |
02:18.54 | DrodoEmpire | throws confetti about |
02:19.31 | DrodoEmpire | But yeah, does that sound about right everyone? |
02:19.42 | DrodoEmpire | Light, Line, Heavy, Marine, and Mechanized infantry? |
02:20.23 | TekDroid | Sure |
02:20.34 | DrodoEmpire | Alright. :3 |
02:20.46 | TekDroid | Watching the Doctor Who premiere. :D |
02:20.53 | DrodoEmpire | I'll do it tomorrow though; Its late and I don'tr trust myself to write when its late |
02:20.56 | DrodoEmpire | Nice! |
02:21.08 | DrodoEmpire | I'm... I'm REALLY behind on Doctor Who. |
02:21.09 | DrodoEmpire | :L |
02:21.15 | TekDroid | lol |
02:21.23 | TekDroid | Just got caught up this week. |
02:21.32 | DrodoEmpire | Ah, |
03:23.30 | DrodoEmpire | For some reason, I feel like writing about a pre-spacefaring civilization on the fictionverse; It... Ooh, ideas. |
03:23.53 | DrodoEmpire | Hmm... |
03:26.07 | DrodoEmpire | Perhaps it is a fiction that, at least in the beginning is generally at the advancement level of the mid-late 1800s; It is contacted by perhaps several races (maybe it has a valuable resource?) and one of the larger nations attempts to modernize and play the competing nations off of eachother with their desire for this resource? |
03:26.21 | DrodoEmpire | I'll need a reason/pick the contacting fictions wisely, though |
03:26.45 | DrodoEmpire | So that they aren't just simply invaded and exterminated/enslaved so the fiction can get at the resource |
03:28.07 | DrodoEmpire | Perhaps the planet has severe Kessler Syndrome? Other anomaly? |
03:30.58 | DrodoEmpire | I like how the guy making the Celestial fiction's just chugging along without as much of a response to Jo. :P |
03:38.13 | DrodoEmpire | yells "Anybody home!?" |
03:40.06 | OfficerJackal | Hai. :3 |
03:40.17 | DrodoEmpire | Hai. :3 |
03:40.25 | DrodoEmpire | So yeah, idea is gud? |
03:40.35 | DrodoEmpire | Still needs refinement, for sure |
03:41.02 | DrodoEmpire | But I think it'd be very interesting to see a tier 6/7 actually on the map and maybe explore the challenges of modernization |
03:42.59 | OfficerJackal | Hmm, sure, it sounds good. |
03:50.20 | TekDroid | Hello. |
03:51.50 | TekDroid | Saw the new Doctor Who episode. |
03:51.57 | DrodoEmpire | Nice |
03:52.02 | DrodoEmpire | How was it? |
03:52.08 | DrodoEmpire | No spoilers, though |
03:53.45 | TekDroid | Alright. Interesting, a few references to past episodes |
03:54.25 | TekDroid | Wasn't really my favourite though. |
03:56.08 | DrodoEmpire | Ah. |
03:59.02 | DrodoEmpire | test |
03:59.45 | TekDroid | One problem with higher resolution computers is that density increases but the image dimensions remain the same. XD |

11:40.41 | Monet_ | Hello |
11:58.09 | AdmiralPanda | hi all |
12:01.44 | Monet_ | Hmm I feel inclined to write a short story revolving around what happens to civilians or outlying patols during the early stages of a DI invasion. |
12:03.49 | Monet_ | To sum up what often happens: People go missing or turn up dead and rural housing and infrastructure is sabotaged. |
12:05.12 | drom | Sounds more like of the inital wave of an invasion by alien parasites. |
12:06.45 | Monet_ | FUnnily enough that's partly the intention. |
12:08.01 | Monet_ | The perpetrators of these incidents take every measure to ensure they are not discovered. If they're lucky they can shift blame onto local terrorists or anarchists. |
12:10.02 | Monet_ | Or perhaps they lpay with local superstition |
12:15.17 | Monet_ | Perhaps a sep up from that, intraplanetary shipping and freight lines are hit |
12:15.26 | Monet_ | Ships goiing missing for instance. |
12:17.45 | drom | I have to go. |

12:33.04 | Wormy | hi |
12:33.24 | Monet_ | Hi |
12:35.09 | Sporeraptor | hi |
12:36.18 | AdmiralPanda | so I'm about to finish possibly the single most comprehensive categorisation of naval ships the wiki has ever seen, at least in terms of number of categories |
12:39.30 | Monet_ | This sounds like a very big list |
12:40.56 | AdmiralPanda | it's currently at 10, and I haven't hit flagships yet |
12:41.04 | AdmiralPanda | 11 if you count the definition of a capital ship |
12:45.31 | AdmiralPanda | I've currently got broad definitions for escort, frigate, destroyer, trawler, ship of the line, cruiser, battlecruiser, battleship, dreadnought, carrier, capital ship and flagship |
12:46.06 | AdmiralPanda | now just contemplating if a couple of escort classifications are worth mentioning |
12:48.15 | Monet_ | WHat about corvettes? |
12:49.26 | AdmiralPanda | corvettes are functionally smaller frigates |
12:49.45 | AdmiralPanda | they're one of the varieties I'm not sure if they're worth mentioning because that's basically all they are |
12:50.26 | AdmiralPanda | by today's classifications the difference is a corvette is between 500-2000 ton displacement, while a frigate is 2000+ |
12:51.22 | TekDroid | Hello |
12:51.36 | Monet_ | So these ships are classified by mass? |
12:51.53 | TekDroid | That's one classification. |
12:52.05 | AdmiralPanda | classification today works by a mix of classification, armament and deployment |
12:52.15 | AdmiralPanda | displacement, armament and deployment* |
12:52.23 | AdmiralPanda | mostly the latter two |
12:52.56 | AdmiralPanda | that's why I don't think corvettes deserve an independent mention, because two of the three classifications are exactly the same, the only difference is size |
12:53.56 | AdmiralPanda | everything else on the list is set apart primarily by armament and deployment |
12:57.03 | Monet_ | I'm assuming the wording is to be interchangeable between seagoing and spacefaring vessels? |
12:57.24 | *** join/#sporewiki drom_train (~dromlexer@c-5eeaaa05-74736162.cust.telenor.se) |
12:58.19 | AdmiralPanda | I make mention of the historical origin of the class, and where that role is obsolete I change it out for the space equivalent |
12:58.29 | AdmiralPanda | shore bombardment for surface, e.t.c. |
12:59.18 | AdmiralPanda | most of it is identical whether seagoing or spacefaring regardless |
13:00.06 | Monet_ | I was merely confused by the useage of "displacement" since there's not much to displace in a vacuum |
13:00.10 | TekDroid | Of course you don't have to stick exactly to modern definitions. |
13:00.32 | AdmiralPanda | I'm not using displacement as a categorising factor |
13:01.05 | AdmiralPanda | TekDroid: I don't, but there's no reason not to when it already provides such an effective system |
13:01.55 | TekDroid | Right. |
13:02.00 | AdmiralPanda | Monet_: Since I'm not using displacement as a categorising factor, there's no functional difference between a frigate and a corvette or sloop, so I didn't see the need to mention them |
13:02.36 | Monet_ | Fair enough. |

13:03.13 | The_Randomness | Hello everyone |
13:04.15 | AdmiralPanda | hi |
13:04.27 | AdmiralPanda | now we just need the rabbit |
13:04.47 | OluapPlayer | hai |
13:04.57 | TekDroid | pulls a rabbit out if his hat |
13:06.50 | Monet_ | AdmiralPanda: I always wondered why Muton Berserkers were always panting this reddish mist. Its a crazy thought that that's a visual image of how furious each of their pants are. |
13:07.05 | Monet_ | Adrenaline + genetic engineering = angry panting |
13:07.07 | AdmiralPanda | I figured they're on drugs |
13:07.31 | AdmiralPanda | it's not blood so it's probably vapour from whatever stimulants they're using |
13:08.31 | Monet_ | When you give a mod to an Xcom soldier that gives them an aerosol-based adrenal surge when they make a kill, they exhale a similar mist |
13:09.17 | AdmiralPanda | iirc that adrenal surge is based on the muton berserker's implants |
13:09.23 | AdmiralPanda | then again I don't really use the gene mods |
13:09.37 | Monet_ | It is |
13:10.03 | AdmiralPanda | I'm all about the MECs |
13:12.05 | The_Randomness | I have a sudden urge to play League |
13:12.11 | drom_train | Genetics are very useful. |
13:12.12 | The_Randomness | I blame Hachi for however long this takes |
13:12.17 | AdmiralPanda | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki:Fiction_Universe/Important_Topics/Warfare#Naval_Warfare_.28Space.29 there we go |
13:12.23 | Monet_ | Gene mods are more expensive |
13:12.25 | AdmiralPanda | Random: Want to call while you do? |
13:12.43 | drom_train | I had a mix of MEC, Psionic and Genetics soldiers. |
13:12.57 | AdmiralPanda | Monet_: Exactly my problem, I think I've only ever bought two gene mods, and that was for my two psionic soldiers |
13:13.01 | The_Randomness | AdmiralPanda: Sure |
13:13.02 | OluapPlayer | Hachi is online, he's just preparing himself |
13:13.04 | drom_train | Wiped out an Exalt mission without any damage. |
13:13.11 | AdmiralPanda | my main game, I fielded four MECs and two psions regularly |
13:13.47 | AdmiralPanda | gotta say, the flamethrower is a waste of time |
13:14.14 | Monet_ | Not for me. |
13:14.49 | AdmiralPanda | I've just never been in a situation where I've needed the flamethrower more than the punching module |
13:15.44 | drom_train | I usually use the Mimetic and Muscle Fiber Density for my snipers and assults. |
13:16.10 | drom_train | For the sniper, he can get behind the enemy and kill the enemy from behind. |
13:16.32 | drom_train | Same for the assults (which mains blast-based weaponry, such as shotguns). |
13:18.38 | drom_train | For heavies, I use Adaptive Bone Marrow and Bioelectric skin at first place. |
13:19.06 | drom_train | So he can Tank and Scout at the same time. |
13:19.12 | Monet_ | I find that bioelectric skin loses half its value once you get titan armour |
13:19.25 | AdmiralPanda | since you can get MEC Close Combat upgrade so early I just never saw use in the flamethrower |
13:21.19 | Monet_ | PLaying AC IV right now - there's an orange supermoon in the night sky right now |
13:21.46 | drom_train | I use the flamethrower against Chryssalids |
13:22.05 | Monet_ | A flamethrower is fun against EXALT |
13:22.24 | drom_train | I hated that mission where you had to investigate a slient town |
13:22.42 | drom_train | SO MUCH. |
13:22.56 | AdmiralPanda | I had no problem with that mission because I sent in three MECs XD |
13:23.22 | drom_train | I had fun camping outside the ship with Overwatch though. |

13:26.32 | Hachiman | drom_train: Smells so good it doesn't even need rolling |
13:27.08 | AdmiralPanda | fun fact, that new lawn smell is a chemical distress signal |
13:27.29 | Hachiman | So basically the screams of grass |
13:27.43 | AdmiralPanda | and you enjoy it |
13:27.57 | Hachiman | I don't even feel terrible |

13:28.36 | OluapPlayer | What you talking about, mowed lawn grass smells terrible |
13:28.40 | drom_train | dry grass > green grass |

13:32.08 | OluapPlayer | The_Randomness: get off El Oh El pls |
13:32.10 | Monet_ | I vote for calling it something along the lines of "psionic warfare" |
13:32.18 | Hachiman | Why |
13:32.22 | Hachiman | It's called Essence |
13:33.06 | Monet_ | Well a good degree of potential users will have ot stick with elemental energy/psychic powers. |
13:33.28 | AdmiralPanda | the only reason I don't want to go with nonconventional warfare is because conventional warfare is already defined as battle lines |
13:35.10 | Monet_ | That and most essences still see a fair degree of telekinetics/telepathy |
13:36.54 | Monet_ | That and...essence warfare can potentially be a form of combat all on its own. It can cause effects that conventional warfare can't do as well such as bodyjacking or clairvoyance. |
13:38.06 | Monet_ | I do support that essence warfare could potentially eb added, but its an iffy field when it comes ot categorisation and fitting in to current systems. |
13:38.18 | Hachiman | dum |
13:38.57 | Monet_ | Its effects are much broader than replacing guns and artillery with telekinetic blasts. |

13:41.51 | Hachiman | Could do perhaps, yeah |
13:44.20 | Monet_ | As reviled as Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was, Iriana Spalko did have a point about how much of a game-changer paranormal warfare would be. |
13:45.21 | Hachiman | If we can include specifics for naval warfare in *space* I don't see how we can't include Essence/paranormal warfare really |
13:46.34 | Monet_ | Does "paranormal warfare" satisfy you for a title? |
13:48.12 | Monet_ | I think the title is brought enough to indicate the inclusion of demons and such |

16:10.37 | MasterMachine | demands that SAO and RWBY release their next episodes this moment* |
16:10.39 | drom_train | There's reasons. |
16:10.55 | MasterMachine | Oh, Hachi, SAO 2 is actually pretty good lol |

16:11.44 | Sporeraptor | hi |
16:11.49 | drom_train | I'd love to babble about Swedish things. |
16:12.03 | MasterMachine | Hey SporreRap |
16:12.10 | MasterMachine | lol drom |
16:13.30 | drom_train | 1. The Swedish railroads are undermainteanced and are notorious for the "reparations" during the [whole !!!] summer. Leaves on the rails, no solutions against snow and ice on the tracks, despite many requests. |
16:13.57 | GD12 | I thought European Infrastructure in general was supposed to be awesome |
16:14.14 | drom_train | 2. A car ride takes alot faster than trains in this land. |
16:14.26 | drom_train | Unless it's the fucking fat Stockholm. |
16:15.24 | drom_train | 3. Delays are no surprise. They cause more problems in a chain similar to dominio bricks. |
16:16.07 | drom_train | 4. Competition makes it worser. Can the fucking capitalists fuck off? |
16:16.13 | drom_train | worse* |
16:16.46 | GD12 | AdmiralPanda and Monet_ : If you aren't working on it, I'll add a section to the Warfare page based on Fabian Strategy, Battles of Annihilation, Maneuver Warfare, and Attrition Warfare |
16:16.57 | drom_train | I guess it was all. |
16:17.33 | drom_train | May Russia's network of rails one of the worst. But I have seen worse since Sweden. |
16:17.35 | Monet_ | GD12: I'm not working on te page no |
16:18.08 | Sporeraptor | drom_train: you pretty much summed up German Trains there. Just that ours try to save money by shutting down or never including air conditioning |
16:19.00 | Sporeraptor | and a bit less of point 1. We instead rebuild railroads in the weirdest ways. |
16:19.02 | drom_train | For a reason, our goverment earns money by this competition. |
16:20.04 | drom_train | They get money as a tax from the companies, still not a single fuck given to the lack of available routes and problems. |
16:20.44 | drom_train | I'm pretty sure that Japan's railroads are the best. |
16:20.57 | drom_train | Despite the morning rushes in the subway. |
16:21.06 | Monet_ | Most of the time England's rails are okay. |
16:21.11 | GD12 | China's high speed rails are quite good as well except for the bathrooms |
16:21.52 | drom_train | Good thing that we have got AC, toliets, comfy seats (with execption of those danish trains) and bistro in all trains. |
16:22.43 | Monet_ | Most of the UK is serviced by either Firgin or First Great Western |

16:38.22 | GD12 | Like in the infrantry section proper, not as one of it's constituent subsections |
16:38.39 | GD12 | same way as we comment on differences in advancment and shenangians liek that |
16:38.49 | Xho | Agents - fuk ur shit |
16:39.08 | DrodoEmpire | Because of their expense and very limited numbers they only fill a niche role (special operations, ambush, turning a battle by arriving at the exact right time) |
16:39.23 | DrodoEmpire | And that last one is exceedingly rare. :P |
16:39.34 | AdmiralPanda | and fixing plasma cores from the inside (the original purpose of terminator armour) |
16:40.15 | GD12 | Xho : imo there should be a battle in KD where agents are used en-masse against each other |
16:40.29 | GD12 | Like in waves ofs thousands rushing against each other supported by lots of other troops and armor |
16:40.33 | Xho | There's going to be one |

16:42.27 | drom_train | Naakji - Fuck economy. Viva la Anarchy! |
16:42.37 | Monet_ | Xho: For instance, gold and platinum and diamond become as valuable as tin, copper and granite |
16:42.50 | GD12 | Heck I think the Tyranny uses its fair share of melee stuff |
16:42.59 | GD12 | blames Warhammer 40k for dis |
16:43.45 | Xho | Well the Kicath tend to extract every last piece of useful substance when they mine |
16:43.52 | DrodoEmpire | I'm sort of on the fence about melee. :P |
16:43.59 | AdmiralPanda | fun fact, unless you're playing a dedicated melee army, most 40k armies don't rely on melee |
16:44.07 | Xho | Kicath recycling programs are probably better than most thinking about it |
16:44.45 | Monet_ | As in for instance a gold and diamond bracelet might be functionally and socially the same as a glass and iron pyerite bracelet. |
16:44.58 | drom_train | Think about replicators too. |
16:45.03 | AdmiralPanda | to be fair my Dark Eldar army is 50% melee, but my eldar don't have any melee units at all |
16:45.06 | DrodoEmpire | Drodo cavalry always carry sabres as at least a secondary weapon (or for cuirassiers especially a primary weapon), and many Drodo officers carry swords into battle |
16:45.32 | GD12 | AdmiralPanda : I was talking about the fluff mostly |
16:45.37 | Xho | Agents tend to wield their good ol' blades |
16:45.54 | AdmiralPanda | GD12: Even in the fluff, close combat isn't as common as the fanship would make you think |
16:45.56 | drom_train | Naakji have no problem using melee to combat. |
16:46.13 | DrodoEmpire | Hussars usually fire off the ammo in their pistols first with point-blank shots to the face. :P |
16:46.18 | Monet_ | The main problem I see with melee oriented troops is getting them into range. |
16:46.23 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
16:46.23 | GD12 | GD12 : Thats true, but the parts that did have melee combat did leave that impression on me and melee |
16:46.39 | DrodoEmpire | Which makes most melee infantry impractical |
16:46.39 | Monet_ | There's a reason hussars and pikemen are no longer in fashion |
16:46.49 | Xho | Agents could technically just use an armoured vehicle to batter people with but it's a little clumsy |
16:46.56 | DrodoEmpire | Cav its a whole different story, Monet |
16:46.58 | DrodoEmpire | *is |
16:47.07 | AdmiralPanda | Monet_: Dark Eldar use flying pirate ships |
16:47.11 | GD12 | Xho : dis tank is my bat |
16:47.25 | DrodoEmpire | Melee infantry are inefficient; Cav, especially heavy cav use melee to disorient and terrify their opponents |
16:48.05 | Xho | There is a story somewhere on the wiki where an Agent IV uses a slab of metal (used as a table) to batter a Murgur black-marketeer which was heavy enough so that not even two Murgur could lift it at the same time |
16:48.05 | Monet_ | Okay so maybe mentioning cavalry was a bad idea |
16:48.05 | GD12 | Actually according to this "1: Agent Alpha - Maximum shift of 57,320 lbs (26000 kg)" depending on what you mean by a shift, agents would only be able to use lighter armored vehciles as bats |
16:48.14 | DrodoEmpire | It makes sense there because they have armour, speed, and melee would possibly be the more efficient option for them (even well-drilled and trained soldiers broke and ran from a incoming cav charge) |
16:48.27 | Xho | GD12: Yeah lighter vehicles |
16:48.33 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: Probably. :P Though melee infantry have no excuse really |
16:48.41 | Xho | Not even Agents could lift a heavy armoured vehicle up |
16:48.51 | Xho | Though the Kicath do have the technological capabilities to do so |

16:49.51 | DrodoEmpire | If something is "cool" it has a get of of jail free-card for making no sense whatsoever. :P |
16:50.03 | Monet_ | More powerful leg muscles for instance allow them to run faster and longer and jump higher. |
16:50.10 | DrodoEmpire | I try and balance the "Rule of Cool" with practicality; I REALLY wanted Napoleonic cav for the Drodo so I first found a way to make it work |
16:50.38 | GD12 | iirc me and wormy have straight up cavalry cahrges against each other |
16:50.38 | Monet_ | DrodoEmpire: COnveniently cyborg horses are both cool and practical |
16:50.39 | Imperios | Drodo is right |
16:50.45 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: Yep. :3 |
16:50.49 | GD12 | Thats true |
16:50.52 | drom_train | I see. |
16:50.55 | GD12 | Its basically like riding an armored bike on 4 legs |
16:51.00 | DrodoEmpire | Yah |
16:51.02 | DrodoEmpire | *yeah |
16:51.06 | Imperios | Fictionwriters need only that their work be *plausible* |
16:51.11 | Imperios | Realistic, perhaps not |
16:51.32 | Monet_ | Plausability can help with the suspension of disbelief |
16:51.34 | DrodoEmpire | Though bikes (hoverbikes and wheeled) would be terrible for cavalry use. :P |
16:52.02 | Xho | Like I always say, realism is a bastard |
16:52.22 | Xho | I wonder what kind of cavalry Kicath Agents would use |
16:52.29 | Xho | If cavalry was such a concept |
16:52.39 | Xho | Usually Kicath Agents *are* the cavalry |
16:52.46 | drom_train | I wonder too for mine, Naakji. |
16:52.47 | DrodoEmpire | Well they'd probably need a MASSIVE mount. :P |
16:52.56 | GD12 | Xho : they could ride each other |
16:53.06 | GD12 | aka Nu giving Alpha a piggyback ride |
16:53.14 | GD12 | and rushing across the field at 100 kmph |
16:53.15 | Xho | Nu - ONWARD MUSH MARCH Mu - fuk u |
16:53.29 | DrodoEmpire | Huh... |
16:53.45 | Xho | Agents don't tend to use their speed much in battle |
16:53.55 | Monet_ | Human minds always want to innately make sense of the world. We want to understand it, if the mind sees something incredible it also partially questions if it is really happen. And plausability is the best tool to reinforce something's believability |
16:54.01 | DrodoEmpire | I wonder if it'd be possible for the Drodo to send out officers/independant former officers could train other fictions' cavalry corps. :P |
16:54.23 | drom_train | Does bikes count for cavalry? |
16:54.34 | DrodoEmpire | No; Using bikes is an awful idea. :P |
16:54.38 | DrodoEmpire | Imo |
16:54.47 | DrodoEmpire | They have no height and no weight |
16:54.49 | Xho | They've been designed to run at speeds of 110 - 220 mph but I've never really used their speed in a story |
16:55.01 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: You clearly haven't seen a combat bike |
16:55.02 | Xho | Nu running at 110 mph is never a good thing |
16:55.06 | DrodoEmpire | Two essential things for a cavalryman to have |
16:55.23 | DrodoEmpire | Plus if you poked someone with a lance you'd go head-over-heels |
16:55.26 | drom_train | "Attaaaaaaaack!" <sic> *grating sounds* |
16:55.35 | DrodoEmpire | Panda: I beg your pardon? |
16:56.02 | Xho | I may have used Tau running at top speed in some instances but never in combat situation |
16:56.11 | drom_train | Motorcycles? |
16:56.13 | Xho | More of a fleeing from a Xhodocto situation |
16:56.24 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: bikes designed for combat are /meant/ to have a low centre of gravity, and they typically weigh a lot more than civilian bikes due to metallic construction |
16:56.27 | DrodoEmpire | Motorcycles are what I meant by bikes. :P |
16:56.47 | *** join/#sporewiki Tek0516 (~TekDroid@24.114.52.119) |
16:56.52 | drom_train | Bicycles. |
16:57.12 | DrodoEmpire | They'd still be too short. And probably wouldn't weigh close to a ton like heavy Cuirassier horses did. :P |
16:57.12 | drom_train | Hohohoh. I can imagine. |
16:57.28 | AdmiralPanda | I'm talking about motorcycles too, military motorcycles are meant to have a lower centre of gravity for stability's sake, and speed makes up for lack of mass |
16:57.41 | drom_train | Well. Naakji's physical speed have yet never seen use in stories. But I'm considering to use it for evasion. |
16:57.41 | Xho | The only thing I can imagine Kicath Agents using are like mechs |
16:57.46 | DrodoEmpire | No it doesn't; You'd likely go flying. :P |
16:57.58 | Xho | Agent Mechs |
16:58.03 | Xho | Now that's an idea that shouldn't happen |
16:58.08 | Monet_ | Because Draconis are so big already I gave them these for mounts http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140511234700/spore/images/6/63/Sarshan.png |
16:58.18 | GD12 | Kicathian agents could hijack the horses that Dominatus Human Overseers use given that those horses can fit 3.4-4 meter tall people |
16:58.21 | DrodoEmpire | Going too fast and then abruptly stopping when you hit a formation's no good; You'd run over a few people and land face-first on the ground |
16:58.35 | drom_train | Nu - "Beep. Beep. Boop. Muggots!" Mu - "Fuck" |
16:58.36 | AdmiralPanda | if you're abruptly stopping then you're doing bike combat wrong |
16:58.42 | Xho | Nu - need dis ride Overseer - fuk off Nu - 2bad |
16:58.43 | AdmiralPanda | that or you're not a space marine |
16:58.54 | DrodoEmpire | "when you hit a formation" |
16:59.10 | DrodoEmpire | At any rate; I still think cavalry bikes are a silly idea. : |
16:59.10 | Xho | Well Kicath Agents are generally taller than normal Kicath as an aesthetic tactic for intimidation |
16:59.12 | DrodoEmpire | *:P |
16:59.17 | GD12 | This horse http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130120085958/spore/images/5/57/HorsemanOfDestinyPortrait.png |
16:59.21 | AdmiralPanda | now that I think of it, if you're abruptly stopping that means your charge has been halted |
16:59.25 | GD12 | Well the horse below the dood |
16:59.27 | Xho | Generally they range between 3.7 - 4.2m |
16:59.30 | DrodoEmpire | Too short. |
16:59.37 | DrodoEmpire | "When you hit a formation" |
16:59.45 | AdmiralPanda | as I said |
16:59.45 | DrodoEmpire | YOu'd slow down for sure |
16:59.55 | AdmiralPanda | you slow down, sure, but not an abrupt stop |
17:00.02 | AdmiralPanda | if you stop cold then your charge has been fully halted |
17:00.05 | drom_train | So. We have to use those walkers from Star Wars? |
17:00.07 | AdmiralPanda | which is seriously bad news for you |
17:00.16 | DrodoEmpire | Whoops, wrong wording/ |
17:00.18 | DrodoEmpire | :P |
17:00.26 | DrodoEmpire | Now. Are we done here? |
17:00.38 | AdmiralPanda | I've been done for ages, you were the one keeping it going |
17:00.58 | DrodoEmpire | Not really. |
17:01.04 | Xho | Return of the ups |
17:01.36 | drom_train | Naakji using creatures for cavalry is hardly accepted by me. So I'd prefer hoverbikes instad. |
17:01.36 | GD12 | Xho : perhaps agents could also ride this http://www.jeditemplearchives.com/galleries/2011/Review_DeluxeGrievousWheel/Review_DeluxeGrievousWheel_stillA.JPG |
17:01.37 | DrodoEmpire | I challenged your claim. |
17:01.47 | Xho | So what supersoldiers do we have in the Fiction Universe aside from Kicath Agents, Wraith Legion and Overseers |
17:02.11 | Xho | GD12: Reminds me of that Dark Souls wheel skeleton video |
17:02.26 | DrodoEmpire | Drom: I personally still feel its not a great idea; You'd need a VERY specialized hoverbike |
17:02.32 | MasterMachine | Xho: Which fiction universe? Fantasy of Giga? |
17:02.35 | MasterMachine | *or |
17:02.36 | MasterMachine | lol |
17:02.41 | GD12 | Dominatus |
17:02.43 | drom_train | How specialized? |
17:02.44 | Xho | Giga of course |
17:02.44 | AdmiralPanda | Xho: Assuming by supersoldiers we mean augmented troops |
17:02.46 | Monet_ | Xho: I suppose technically the Blood Dragons count given their training. |
17:02.57 | GD12 | Blood Dragons probably count |
17:03.07 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: hoverbike cavalry don't work the way horse cavalry do |
17:03.10 | Xho | AdmiralPanda: Well anything that comes above the standard |
17:03.16 | MasterMachine | Giga wise I guess most of the Union of Mecholife's military could beconsidered "supersoldiers" from a biological standpoint. |
17:03.18 | AdmiralPanda | well, they work more in a sense of outriders than heavy cav |
17:03.31 | Xho | As an example Agents would curbstomp a normal Kicath trooper |
17:03.37 | AdmiralPanda | Xho: In that case, Fordan Praetoria |
17:03.45 | Monet_ | There's the Theian Technocracy's adepts given their psychic training. |
17:04.06 | Sporeraptor | I guess Troodontid Super Warriors and Hyper Battle androids could count as super warriors. |
17:04.19 | drom_train | So. Hoverbikes = Outriders. You say? |
17:04.25 | GD12 | Zazane Niddan Ho |
17:04.28 | MasterMachine | Xho: With regards to above average within the civ than the Mecho's with stronger wills, since they can effectively control weaker mecholife. |
17:04.29 | AdmiralPanda | in a way |
17:04.31 | Xho | I wonder whether it is possible for supersoldiers to manipulate hyperspace to their advantage |
17:04.36 | GD12 | Ahh |
17:04.39 | GD12 | The DCP does that |
17:04.42 | Hachiman | Xho: DCP supersoldiers do |
17:04.49 | MasterMachine | #DCPisAwesome |
17:04.49 | Xho | Right so it's not an idea the Agents can have |
17:04.52 | Xho | bahdammit |
17:04.57 | Xho | dammitdagitnabitdammit |
17:05.02 | MasterMachine | lol |
17:05.03 | Sporeraptor | But they have no ability to manipulate essences, so I am not sure. |
17:05.03 | GD12 | I think i included that in a battle between the DT and the DCP |
17:05.09 | GD12 | where the DCP did hyperspatial maneuvers |
17:05.30 | AdmiralPanda | eldar jetbikers use hit-and-run tactics rather than direct confrontation, and their equivalent of heavy cavalry (the Shining Spears) use short-range laser lances instead of actual impact weaponry |
17:05.44 | AdmiralPanda | which is another thing DrodoEmpire never considered (not trying to be snarky, just pointing it out) |
17:05.52 | drom_train | My idea of Naakji supersoldiers are elite soldiers with high values of essence and has a suit for superior mobility. |
17:05.53 | Xho | That being said the Kicath do have devices which allow manoeuvres like teleportation |
17:06.02 | Xho | Though I dunno how teleportation works on the wiki |
17:06.18 | Monet_ | Xho: There are a couple of methods |
17:06.25 | Xho | Kithworto (before his god-mode) and Kilchárunya have done it before |
17:07.03 | Monet_ | Essence-based teleportation probably involves projection, something like engulfing yourself in a tunnel though spacetime |
17:07.26 | Xho | Well, it isn't essence based teleportation though the Kicath have the means to harness that kind of method |
17:07.33 | drom_train | So it's possible to use essence for sake of mobility, evasion and weaponry? |
17:07.47 | Xho | Since Kilchárunya is able to do it without having any significant essence powers |
17:08.28 | Monet_ | Personally I've theorised that remote teleportation coudl work by temporarily immersing yourself in hyperspace. Although something like that would kill someone without adequate protection |
17:08.38 | Xho | Right |
17:08.49 | Xho | Might explain why Kilchárunya wears that suit of armour |
17:09.09 | Xho | Hell I dunno |
17:09.15 | Monet_ | The hazard if unbreathable environment + hypermatter |
17:09.16 | drom_train | I should make a sketch of Naakji armors someday. |
17:09.21 | Monet_ | is* |
17:09.27 | Xho | Kicath run on whimsical godtech half the time |
17:09.38 | Monet_ | So containment field of sorts could wrok. |
17:10.04 | Xho | That being said, if Kilchárunya has access to such technology then Agents do as well |
17:10.36 | Xho | Though I've never been able to actually use Agents to their full abilities generally because of Nu and then how much the Agents don't appear without Nu |
17:10.40 | GD12 | id imagine teleportation would require a massive amount odf energy |
17:10.50 | GD12 | and would generally be one use for a given battle |
17:10.55 | DrodoEmpire | Back. |
17:11.15 | Xho | General explanation is that Nu's behaviour makes it dangerous for other Agents to be equipped with the pseudo-godtech that Agents are usually equipped with |
17:11.20 | Monet_ | One way teleporter nodes could work is digitising the body to teleport and then transmitting it though communication systems |
17:11.24 | drom_train | I wonder what kind of cavalry would fit for Naakji. Can I may ask you guys? |
17:11.48 | Xho | Monet_: Like reconstructing? |
17:11.55 | Monet_ | Xho: Yeah |
17:12.04 | Xho | Well that would suit the Kicath since they like digital construction hur |
17:12.11 | Monet_ | Although something like that might not be very doable for remote teleportation |
17:12.27 | GD12 | Yeah that seems pretty hard to do unless you have established teleportation hubs |
17:12.29 | Monet_ | SInce ou need *something* to buidl you at the other end |
17:12.36 | Xho | Hm |
17:12.42 | Xho | Right that might work for long distance then hur |
17:12.55 | Xho | Examples I've done are like 40 metres at the furthest |
17:13.14 | GD12 | If its 40 meters then just attach a jet turbine to their back? |
17:13.29 | Xho | Well when you're being fired at with weaponry going at the speed of light |
17:13.41 | Monet_ | Perhaps some kind of constructor nanites could be used? |
17:13.48 | Xho | A jet turbine might not cut it for that situation |
17:13.53 | GD12 | Thats true |
17:14.10 | Xho | Especially if Kicath are firing at each other and the Kicath's love for particle beam weapons |
17:14.24 | Monet_ | Well one problem with dodging lightspeed weapons is once you se it you've been hit already |
17:14.31 | Xho | Pretty much |
17:14.38 | GD12 | bbl |
17:14.48 | Xho | Good thing ablative armour and non-phasic shielding comes into practice |
17:14.50 | Monet_ | So "dodging" requires anticipation |
17:15.21 | Ghel | Hello. |
17:15.33 | DrodoEmpire | AdmiralPanda: I suppose I "never considered" a few things, yes; But I stand by that at the very least horse and hoverbike cavalry have very different uses. |
17:15.55 | AdmiralPanda | well yeah, we agree completely on that |
17:16.03 | AdmiralPanda | you were saying the latter was useless |
17:16.12 | AdmiralPanda | wait you were talking about ground bikes |
17:16.14 | DrodoEmpire | I said it was impractical |
17:16.17 | DrodoEmpire | Mostly |
17:16.20 | Xho | Though that being said I don't think Agents need mechs really |
17:16.27 | DrodoEmpire | Though I did mention hoverbikes where a bit silly |
17:16.38 | DrodoEmpire | Which I take back; Though I'd never use them personally |
17:19.27 | Monet_ | That's the thing about particle and laser weapons; they rtavel at such velocities that if you want to dodge the shot you have to move *before* the shot is fired |
17:19.52 | AdmiralPanda | that's the case with most firearms really |
17:20.04 | Xho | I wonder how Han Solo dodged |
17:20.16 | Ghel | Blaster bolts are slow. |
17:20.34 | Monet_ | Yeah |
17:20.34 | Tek0516 | Yeah. |
17:20.35 | Xho | Right so they're not lasers then |
17:20.36 | DrodoEmpire | Well they aren't lasers but I'd never say they're "slow". :P |
17:20.45 | Xho | Well I didn't know that |
17:20.45 | drom_train | Welp. I'm having a headache. |
17:20.48 | Xho | The more you know |
17:20.49 | Tek0516 | Blaster bolts are slower than bullets. XD |
17:20.59 | Monet_ | They're supposed to be lasers but...Star Wars isn't exactly scientific. |
17:21.00 | DrodoEmpire | Are they? |
17:21.16 | Hachiman | I've seen people try to argue that Star Wars is hard sci-fi |
17:21.20 | Xho | Well yeah, lightsabres |
17:21.27 | Tek0516 | DrodoEmpire: I thought ot was evident from the visuals. XF |
17:21.30 | Tek0516 | XD |
17:21.41 | Hachiman | Needs less inbreeding in the science fiction community |
17:21.45 | Xho | I imagine if that lightsabres were made of light it would have a virtually infinite length |
17:22.02 | AdmiralPanda | Xho: Greedo just missed, Han didn't even move his upper body |
17:22.11 | Xho | but |
17:22.14 | Hachiman | Xho: Flashlights only go so far in the dark |
17:22.17 | Xho | how do you miss with a weapon like that |
17:22.23 | Xho | Hachiman: Theoretically infinite then |
17:22.24 | *** join/#sporewiki TekDroid (~TekDroid@CPEbc1401540283-CMbc1401540280.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) |
17:22.25 | AdmiralPanda | who knows, but he did |
17:22.40 | Monet_ | Xho: Greedo was a N00b |
17:22.43 | Ghel | So less lightsaber, more laser. |
17:22.51 | AdmiralPanda | actually, I know exactly why |
17:22.56 | AdmiralPanda | Han has plot armour, remember |
17:23.01 | Xho | da powa of da plot |
17:23.13 | DrodoEmpire | The same way you miss with a gun at that range. :P Even a weapon with 100% accuracy (which blasters do not have), wielded by a novice can miss because their aiming was off |
17:23.23 | Xho | I'm just reminded of the fact that Kicath Agents have emulated voices |
17:23.35 | AdmiralPanda | plot is the difference between stormtroopers shooting at rebels and stormtroopers shooting at people with names |
17:23.36 | DrodoEmpire | Which I doubt at that range but its still possible |
17:23.40 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
17:23.56 | Xho | I think in Nu's holiday fiction that his voice changes |
17:24.01 | Monet_ | I think he was a Noob because he pointed a gun at Han over the table in a cantina full of people |
17:24.04 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: Greedo wasn't looking down the sights (neither was Han but still), so he might have missed horribly |
17:25.53 | Monet_ | I still like how Star wars is more stereotypical with aliens than Star Trek |
17:26.07 | AdmiralPanda | you like that? |
17:26.13 | Monet_ | Its hilarious |
17:27.09 | Monet_ | People bash on about Star Trek's aliens being unrealistic when in Star Wars every Hutt is a crime lord and every Trandoshan is in some line of hunting or slaving work because religion. |
17:27.10 | drom_train | I like Star Wars' vision on aliens more. |
17:27.54 | Monet_ | And every female Twi'lek dresses like a prostitute. |
17:27.59 | Monet_ | In the films at least |
17:28.18 | AdmiralPanda | that's because every female Twi'lek in the films IS a prostitute :P |
17:28.26 | AdmiralPanda | except that one jedi |
17:28.32 | Monet_ | Who still dressed like onw |
17:28.33 | AdmiralPanda | she wasn't dressed like a prostitute |
17:29.51 | Monet_ | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120815094201/starwars/images/f/f9/Aayla.jpg even if she wasn't, that is definitely not regulation Jedia attire |
17:30.26 | AdmiralPanda | eh, she took her coat off |
17:31.34 | AdmiralPanda | one of the best statements involving gender equality: "Women want to be equal. Ok, it's socially acceptable for a man to walk around with no shirt without shame, so it should be socially acceptable for a woman to do so without shame too. |
17:31.35 | Monet_ | My int still stands. All female twi'lek in the filsm dress sluttily |
17:32.03 | Monet_ | point* |
17:32.46 | drom_train | I guess when women wears no shirt, it means that men should also wear bra. |
17:32.49 | AdmiralPanda | this just reminds me of how it's quite normal for Fordanta to walk around naked |
17:34.54 | Monet_ | I'm surprised that Trandoshan society managed to remain stable when apparently living your life without engaging in the hunt is damning for your soul. |
17:35.34 | AdmiralPanda | Fordanta handle that quite nicely by having hunting reserves |
17:39.06 | Monet_ | Makes sense |
17:39.31 | Monet_ | Although Trandos appear to prefer hunting animals more...self-aware than most megafauna. |
17:39.55 | Monet_ | They don't have to but apparently they get more points tallied by their goddess |
17:44.17 | Monet_ | That's an interesting image |
17:44.52 | Monet_ | The Trando god is essentially Santa. Only instead of giving you presents every year, she decides how you spend your afterlife. |

22:01.37 | Xho | Now that's just being rude |
22:02.14 | agentsleeper | Ack. My bad. |
22:02.20 | agentsleeper | I have to go anyway. |
22:02.24 | Xho | Good idea |

22:04.14 | OluapPlayer | I added the sectors to that Borealis map, now waiting for it to be uploaded |
22:04.18 | OluapPlayer | It's pretty ugly but it's better than nothing |
22:04.50 | GD12 | Hey evetyone |
22:05.43 | Monet_ | Hello |
22:07.35 | OluapPlayer | "The file you tried to upload is not an image" |
22:07.38 | OluapPlayer | well fuck you too |
22:08.00 | Xho | hoh |
22:08.32 | OluapPlayer | I might need someone else to create the map page |
22:11.40 | GD12 | y'all look at the final battle in the Tyranny-ATR arc http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Attero_Dominatus/Milky_Way_Campaign#The_Battle_of_Chalcedon and one of the penultimate battles in the entire mW campaign |
22:13.07 | Cyrannian | Aye, c dis |
22:15.40 | Cyrannian | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140814192038/spore/images/3/38/Battle_of_Chalcedon.png - This is the picture of it. |
22:23.43 | OluapPlayer | I realized I forgot one sector in this picture |
22:23.56 | OluapPlayer | Fuck it hur |
22:26.35 | OluapPlayer | Oh wait I didn't |
22:26.41 | OluapPlayer | I'm confusing myself |
22:27.31 | Cyrannian | http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140823011848/spore/images/1/19/Carandial.png - I made a new Basileus model if you haven't seen |
22:28.49 | OluapPlayer | I noticed |
22:28.52 | OluapPlayer | It's a good model |
22:29.03 | Hachiman | Ooh nice model |
22:31.15 | Cyrannian | danke |
22:35.38 | Monet_ | Cyrannian: Will the ATR or New Cyrannian Republic be joining the anti-Dominatus coalition against the Tyranny in Mirus? |
22:36.35 | GD12 | Methinks its easier to count the major powers who aren't part of the Anti-Dominatus Coalition |
22:36.56 | Cyrannian | Monet_: Indeed |
22:37.51 | Cyrannian | GD12: Empire - *hipsterfaic* |
22:38.11 | GD12 | The ADC is essentially the Gigaquadrant minus Cyrannian Fictions with the exception of the ATR and NCR , Kicath, USO, and Dominion of Xhodocto |
22:38.39 | Cyrannian | And the Rambo, I believe |
22:38.55 | GD12 | also minus Zazane, Rambo and AI Netspace. Me and Catface will keep the ULE's involvement secret till its time |
22:39.05 | GD12 | *whatever their involvement in AD is |
22:39.15 | GD12 | No spoilers for that |
22:39.41 | GD12 | The only parts needed till Mirus Campaign now are Tybusen's TIAF part and Angrybirds OL part |
22:40.58 | Cyrannian | Nightie night |
22:41.12 | GD12 | Good night |
22:42.47 | GD12 | I should probably end up making a page for the ADC some time |
22:46.01 | DrodoEmpire | Back |
22:47.35 | GD12 | Hello |
22:47.43 | DrodoEmpire | Hai. :3 |
22:57.53 | GD12 | draft stuff http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:GreatDestroyer12/Anti-Dominatus_Coalition |
23:00.54 | OluapPlayer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Maps/2550 well here it is |
23:02.04 | Xho | sehr gut |
23:02.07 | Xho | well done ups |
23:02.30 | OluapPlayer | add ur shi |
23:02.55 | Xho | Which sector is Mirianis again |
23:02.59 | Xho | Or however you spell it |
23:03.00 | Xho | My head |
23:03.13 | OluapPlayer | Same as Viniaris |
23:03.20 | Xho | Ah yeah |
23:04.16 | OluapPlayer | Afiloxenos would be in the same sector as Soltako in case you're planning to add that |
23:04.20 | Xho | rite |
23:07.01 | Monet_ | I am noticing that our site's symbol pool isn't universal. |
23:08.00 | Monet_ | It's not a requirement but it makes looking at maps easier if say all the scifi maps shared the same set of map merkers |
23:08.52 | Xho | merkers |
23:08.54 | Xho | heh |
23:09.01 | Monet_ | markers. |
23:09.46 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Would Afiloxenos count as a capital or a planet |
23:09.58 | OluapPlayer | Planet |
23:16.09 | DrodoEmpire | I agree with Monet; This inconsistency, while not crippling isn't really a good thing either |
23:17.24 | Hachiman | Oh well |
23:17.26 | Hachiman | :p |
23:18.03 | Monet_ | "oh well"? |
23:18.19 | Hachiman | Yeah, oh well |
23:18.24 | Hachiman | It's not really that much of an issue |
23:18.28 | Hachiman | It's user preference |
23:19.14 | Xho | Well I've added Anatezc-ji 0, Afiloxenos, Levetaramaz Space Station and Dzaranäo -2 |
23:19.25 | Xho | Oh and the Kicath's Plazith Wormhole |
23:19.33 | OluapPlayer | gud |
23:20.55 | Hachiman | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:188833 For anybody who cares before this guy starts whining again :[ |
23:20.58 | Hachiman | :p* |
23:21.22 | Monet_ | I'm a bit worried that considering that Cyrannus and Borealis use a different icon system to the Milky Way, Andromeda and Katar it could be an indicator of community divide. It's user preference I guess, but so far its preference between one of two sets |
23:21.31 | DrodoEmpire | He whined? |
23:21.41 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: Perhaps you're overthinking it. |
23:21.52 | Xho | Yeah I wouldn't bring up that debate in public ever again |
23:22.05 | DrodoEmpire | Though I do agree that a standardized template would look far nicer |
23:22.15 | Monet_ | Fine I'll shut up then |
23:22.16 | Xho | Holy shit the Cyrannus map is just caked with locations |
23:22.27 | OluapPlayer | I used Cyrannian's icons because Cyrannian provided them to me |
23:23.01 | Hachiman | Oh well, it's icons, not a big deal |
23:23.15 | Xho | We need one of those battle filters for the Milky Way |
23:23.15 | Hachiman | I don't see how bloody pictures can symbolize community divide |
23:23.35 | DrodoEmpire | Hachi, I think that may be enough. |
23:24.05 | Hachiman | Alright, I don't want to start an argument tonight anyway |
23:24.14 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
23:24.17 | Hachiman | I just think it's silly to cause an issue over icons |
23:24.30 | Xho | OluapPlayer: BOREALIS NEEDS MORE DOMINION SHIT PRONTO HUR HUR HUR |
23:24.34 | OluapPlayer | shup |
23:24.38 | Xho | ;-; |
23:24.39 | DrodoEmpire | Its a matter of standardization; I think it'd look nice to have one set |
23:24.50 | DrodoEmpire | Though its not a major issue |
23:26.56 | Xho | Imagine how many battle icons would be around Hyperborea hur |
23:27.43 | Monet_ | I dropped my point, issue over. |
