ZendikaroftheWest "I seriously doubt it could, and even if it could, the railgun would only have an effective range within the system. And because this star system is going to be Federation territory after the gate is built, I don't see any problems with a defensive railgun if it were to be built.

But you said it had the power to shoot ships through ftl to here, and you could create another one here, and shoot through most of the galaxy

The_Devil_Incarnate

ZendikaroftheWest (this is also out of rp) I said it created an artificial FTL Route, the ship still needs an FTL drive to travel through it.

ah

The_Devil_Incarnate

@ZendikaroftheWest @Hannizio The construction ships would finish repairing the frame of the warp gate, and soon after that, start attaching finished pieces to the frame, only an hour after the ship began to attach the pieces the warp gate was completed, it was fired up, and the freighters and construction ships left. The Quasar would receive a message, and then it would send out a broadcast to the nonrevian ships, "As of the completion of the gate, this is now Revian territory, I must ask for you to leave the system if you refuse to comply you will be fired upon."

We will leave a liason for future diplomacy.
The ships turn, and begin warping out, leaving a small transport, in purple and white colors.

The_Devil_Incarnate "I dont intend to leave yet. I have a last thing to bring up..." The Captain of the HDC Halberd speaks in a very confident voice "I dont know much about your culture... But in my culture, a crown is a sign of the highest. Only a handful of individuals are allowed to wear one. I suppose people with crowns on their head should work on keeping their heads. Anyways, I wont talk around it, I am very interested in your warp gate technology. It could finally open the doors of the galaxy to our fleets without risking them. Just on the way out of our part we lost 2 frigates and 1 cruiser. Would you be so kind and give us some basic plans?"

Hannizio

The_Devil_Incarnate also sorry for the late reply, I was on vacation

The_Devil_Incarnate the crystal empire attack using the mothership of the crystal empire "we will not allow others interfering with our reasearch"

What

The_Devil_Incarnate

S20hudson06 hey the event is over, the warpgate was completed, did you not read the end conditions?

The_Devil_Incarnate

Hannizio "That is not for me to decide, I'll relay your words to our parliament. But I'm willing to bet the plans won't come without a cost if they're willing to give them up that is." "We also lost some good men in the battle, I'm counting 2 squadrons of fighters, 3 corvettes, and quite heavily damaged vessels."

Hannizio

The_Devil_Incarnate "We also had causalities. We will wait here until you can give us a good answer. We wont shoot you again, you don't have to worry, but we wont give up this position so easy. We have nothing to lose, and we will fight like it." All weapons are on standby, the hangar bays open and a few drones fly out together with some cargo vessels. Some do FTL jumps, other start mining surrounding asteroids and bring the mined materials on board of the HDC Halberd

The_Devil_Incarnate

One of the corvettes departs from the fleet formation a minute later, it travels through the warp gate and into the other side........A few hours later, a small luxury corvette enters through the gate and hails the Halberd "The Revian Parliament has made their decision, we will not give you the plans at this time due to the battle, but if our FTL technology works differently than yours, we will be willing to make a sort of exchange. Hopefully, that will benefit us both."

Hannizio

The_Devil_Incarnate "We use Hyperspace based FTL technology"

The_Devil_Incarnate

Hannizio "As in you use hyperlanes?"

Hannizio

"We normally use many short jumps in a very quick succession, so we don't have any big routes. we have some highway like longer routes. In general, we aren't bound to specific routes, but asteroids and dark matter are a big problem and a reason we can't leave into the galaxy without risk"

The_Devil_Incarnate

Hannizio "Ah I see, well we might be able to discover a few lanes that circumvent the asteroids and dark matter, tell you what, we'll give you some hyperlane probes, if any safe hyperlanes show up, then we will give you plans to build Revian hyperdrives in exchange for the rights to harvest all the dark matter in and around HDC space."

Hannizio

The_Devil_Incarnate "If you want to harvest dark matter, why dont you just do it? there is 4 times more dark matter than normal matter in the universe you know?"

The_Devil_Incarnate

Hannizio "Yes, I've heard some theories about that, but the amount of practically accessible dark matter, in our star cluster at least, is much rarer. Things may be different here though."

The_Devil_Incarnate

Hannizio "We get most of the dark matter we use from the black hole holding our star cluster together. Interesting thing about it though is that out of the 4 or 5 black holes accessible to us, only that central one has any dark matter."
