Kashyyyk/Prakith Intel Reports

Carpet bombing? Not as good as a viral or pollen agent.

We have to live with what we've got until the bio agents are developed, though.

 

[Mr. OOC]

What we have are YVH-1 and EMBU droids that should be able to take on the Vong. We also have LOBO Units which Sochi and I just got approved today.

Bombing the crap out of them can work. Either way we need to work on the bio weapon angle quickly if we want to stop the Vong.

True. Though Napalm is messy and has a tendency to hit friendlies and destroy half the battlefield.

I'm pretty sure the Confederacy had an acid bomb we could just reverse engineer. It was a low atmospheric burst that pretty much made it rain highly volatile acid for an amount of time.

There was this one idea i had about diatomaceous earth.


Cause you know, they kill bugs --- figured they work for thud bugs too. It was just a random idea.

Do tell? Do you have more details?

It probablly sounds really lame.

But this was my idea. Get it into a powder form of dispensing to perhaps attack the more "buglike" critters?

I don't know if it would work -- but if it works for bugs *shrugs*

Pest control

Diatomite is used as an insecticide, due to its abrasive and physico-sorptive properties.[8] The fine powder absorbs lipids from the waxy outer layer of insects' exoskeletons, causing them to dehydrate. Arthropods die as a result of the water pressure deficiency, based on Fick's law of diffusion. This also works against gastropods and is commonly employed in gardening to defeat slugs. However, since slugs inhabit humid environments, efficacy is very low. It is sometimes mixed with an attractant or other additives to increase its effectiveness. Medical-grade diatomite is sometimes used to de-worm both animals and humans.[9][10] It is commonly used in lieu of boric acid, and can be used to help control and possibly eliminate bed bug, house dust mite, cockroach, ant and flea infestations.[11] This material has wide application for insect control in grain storage.

In order to be effective as an insecticide, diatomaceous earth must be uncalcinated (i.e., it must not be heat-treated prior to application)[13] and have a mean particle size below about 12 µm (i.e., food-grade – see below).

Although considered to be relatively low-risk, pesticides containing diatomaceous earth are not exempt from regulation in the United States under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act and must be registered with the Environmental Protection Agency.

 

[Mr. OOC]

Actually I think that's quite relevant. Would seriously harm thud bugs at least. Lace the air with that stuff. The same basic.principle could be applied to tech to go after the rest of their gear as well.

 

[Mother Askani]

Bug spray!

 

[Mr. OOC]

I have a way to counter them hacking our comms. I will work on it tonight.

Reverance just had NPCs drop mines from above into the stronghold at Obj. B. Would anyone mind NPC'ing their removal/destruction?

As my witch char i've done other ic testing and analzying to go against yuuzhan vong tech.

But my ideas tend to be kinda silly -- tho my excuse is that they are low tech and just... well practical xD

ATC is working against anti-vong bullets to tear through that vong crab armor. They've been testing it and going about new ways to cut through them.

*shrugs*

just silly ideas xD

No idea is too silly.

ive got an alt who can do that. he specializes in eod

 

[Mr. OOC]

I've submitted a way to counter the loss of our comms to slicers.

M.I.T.E.s
