Contruum: Objective C (Taking the Garrison)

That is an excellent point. it does quickly turn into a mess at that scale. Do we know who is taking point on their end for this? Probably best to start communicating now.

Snazzy. Kiyron probably won't use them, but I can see how they would be useful.

Vrag started their planning thread, but I don't know if they're actually involved with that objective too much. Isamu Baelor seems to be doing the majority of the planning on their side. He's also the one with the 70,000 troops. Would probably be best to get into contact with him.

Roger that. I'll see if I can't get in touch.

 

[Onrai]

The Rad-Pistol and Rad-Rifle have both been approved. All that's left now is to get the atomic demolitions munition approved, and we'll have a basic amount of weapons to use.

Excellent! Thanks for those! [member="Vitor Imperieuse"]

Aren't proton torpedoes miniature nuclear weapons?

70,000 troops isn't that bad. Just a handful of regiments. Pretty sure I've managed about half of that number before.

And what are these radiation weapons I keep hearing about?

[member="Jaccer Ramirez"]

70,000 troops for a single battle is unmanageable at best and absurd at worst. It doesn't even make logistical sense. And it diminishes writing quality because you simply have too much going on. It becomes a dick measuring contest that leads no where. The only value in this is tactical, and you can't exemplify tactics if you've crammed soldiers into every orifice you can find.

Wait, does the invasion start now?

It should be up today. The exact time depends on when the One Sith decide to post the thread.

 

[Ali Hadrix]

[member=Kiyron]: I am in discussion with Baelor already about force composition.

 

[Kiyron]

Okay, cool. Sounds good.

 

[Onrai]

Oh, good news. On top of the rad-exoskeletons, the rad-rifles, and the jezzail pistol, you also have man-portable tactical nukes. Enjoy.

Those nukes need to be at least 500x bigger.

I want petatons, not tons!

You do know that a nuclear weapon with the power of Tsar Bomba would be able to engulf three Star Destroyers parked bow to stern with the fireball alone, right? Tl;dr would wreck anything 10/10

 

[Jaccer Ramirez]

And that's considered a superweapon? Pitiful.

I read somewhere that a petaton bomb could shatter a planet. Big bombs are pretty neat stuff.

[Onrai]

It's considered a WMD in our world. In Star Wars, not so much.

I want petatons, not tons!

A petaton nuclear bomb would completely envelope the entirety of the country of Japan by several times, with just the fireball alone. It would split apart the crust of the planet, much like one of the superlaser-carrying SSDs of the Galactic Empire did, and kill all life on a planet due to radiation bubbling, a 1000 REM zone that would at least cover a good percentage of an earth-sized planet.

In layman's terms, that is a superweapon.

Kiloton = 1000 Tons

Megaton = 1000 Kilotons

A megaton bomb is literally a 1,000,000 ton bomb, only due to the magnitude of it the damage from a megaton bomb is exponentially larger than 1,000,000 one-ton bombs.

Now if we venture to Petatons....


1,000,000,000 Megatons.

That is 1 billion times one million times the size of a normal bomb.

 

[Jaccer Ramirez]

That's not a superweapon. That's a fun weapon!

I'll join in Objective C as soon as I manage to summarize what's happening.

 

[Kiyron]

Wonderful! [member="Jalek Arkada"]

Yup I'll have my first post after the year I spend trying to summarize what's going on what's happening. So much too red :|

Though the grid is nice and helpful
