chobit-389 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Well if you base your space battleship on the Yamato, or ANY of the ships from Iron Sky. Yes, they don't work, they have artificial gravity, anti gravity, theoretical FTL, tachyons, etc. But I was designing a game/story concept that humans only use real/soon real/mathematically sound concept(warp drive) technology.Oh aye, I'm the same, I'm working on a plausible reality sci-fi novel set in 27th century. However, the BBY-1 Yamato is FAR more realistic than an orbital weapons platform that can vapourize a man with pinpoint precision. And ANY laser-based weapon requires massive amount of energy output.They apparently use a giant hammer to get energy out of (what I believe is a fusion reaction).......hammer? where.

ROFLCopter64bit Posted April 27, 2013 Author Share Posted April 27, 2013 .......hammer? where.1:05. Actually, looking at it again, it looks like one of those things that police carry to ram into doors.I like that nickname. Please continue calling me that.

LaydeeDem Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Quantum physics frown upon your railgun. The uncertainty principle it too high for your railgun to be reliable.The US Navy says otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botse Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 The US Navy says otherwise.The hells is that oh and-SNIP-The UNSC says otherwise as well (read all ship main weapons read)[RANT=1]And please don't start a flame war like on the latest thread ppl you try putting IRL thinking in shows with homing cannon shots? OK missiles can do that but a cannon that can? were in its shell is all the RCS fuel? Or LFO? For engines? but if its plasma you could say its using hi-tech mag tech to do it[/RANT] < needs to be added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) A steered shell would either use fins, or the whole thing would flex and bend on joints to maneuver through the air. It wouldn't be able to corner like a Mazda but it would have some minor control.A lot of what you see in some tv shows is plausible, but not with current technology. Then there is **** like warp drives and laser swords... no. Just no. Edited April 28, 2013 by chobit-389 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSuperintendnt Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) 1. Current railgun tech is only semi-reliable in a atmosphere that is due to the entire gun being washed in plasma!2. Yes, the Yamato is more realistic that a (insert technobable here) Satellite weapon3. Are we really getting this off topic?4. ON TOPIC: looking forward to any new art! wish I was that good....Someone say steerable bullet? Edited April 28, 2013 by TheSuperintendnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROFLCopter64bit Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 So wait, my Hyper-V is plausible? Yay.Time to start making something up for the Hyper-Z.(Z stands for the Z-Pinch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROFLCopter64bit Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 And the hyper-V? what is that?My Hyper-V (overpowered celestial orbital cannon) fires activated fusion pellets, which fuses with eveything in a 50 to 10^68km radius on impact/within a countdown with a maximum of 10^7 years (thanks to quantum slipstreaming and exponential fusion growth) for literal timebombs. Also can rip apart some of the universe if you compress the fusion pellets so much they collapse into miniature black hole.The Hyper-V does use the non-existent quantum slipstreaming, which grants access to the hyperspace which contains all the wormhole connection thingos and places a fusion pellet in that space to be retrieved at a later date/distant location. Think of it like the nether in minecraft. When you take one step in the nether, its 8 steps in the overworld. If you can abuse this (with time assumingly being frozen in this hyperspace) then you can time delay the fusion reactions and place them very far away. If you think about it, the Hyper-V is merely a teleporter with a high-power lazer array. But I can't say the same for the Hyper-Z.-Stupid 10char doesnt count quotesThis subject:-snip-DEFINED!Nuh-uh!

botse Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 OK thanks now I'm going to nuke it with a NOVA(if you have read any good halo fic you know what that can do) or just pilt it at huge range with some ODPs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I have a simple way to end this discussion. Rofl, you've given basically no information regarding your fanciful OWP, only a (very cheese) name and a minor list of capabilities which is little more than a kid in a sandbox sticking a twig into a mound of dirt and calling it a turret. Bring me some schematics and I'll be inclined to listen more intently.You have a choice: Let me work on PfL, or continue ranting and forcing me to devote all my time to intricately designing a rail-cannon weapon system simply to make a point.

ROFLCopter64bit Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 I'll begin to work on schematics and blueprints. Continue on your PfL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwolfy Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 just a rail gun that simple? what you need is my ultra dense anti exotic matter cannon or UDAEMC pronounced uder-mech capable of firing a small ultra dense exotic antimatter ball of plasma at near relative speedsit works similar to rail gun except it uses negative gravity too. causing not only high speed damage, but the shell anniallates its self in the process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdinYggd Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 From what the pictures so far are suggesting, I don't think any kind of unstoppable hyperweapon from the distant future is really relevant to this project or on topic for this thread. Looking at the images produced thus far, it suggests some type of vacation or new life on Laythe from the perspective of a young person writing to their relatives back home. Not really the kind of setting for such war-like equipment. Although no reports have been filed regarding that, if chobit-389 wants I could remove said offtopic posts. Please keep to the topic at hand, this is about the Postcards from Laythe project. You're welcome to make your own topic elsewhere on the forum (perhaps in the science section) to develop this fusion cannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait- Was That Important? Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 This pleases me greatly. Not enough anime astronauts, I tell you. Either that or I'm not looking hard enough.[sarcasm]Here, let me help you[/sarcasm].On a serious note, why impale the dead bodies of the stoats? Chances are those corpses will attract coyotes/ wolves or the like right to the coops, Chobit.And another thing, what's up with the fanfiction section of the website? It's been empty the last time I've looked, is the writer doing it all in one go or just taking a long time for the first installment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no feast, nothing else lives in that coop now, so meh, just means I'll have a wolf pelt or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
