Well, which one would you rather have a fruitumor launched at?

Erm, how much infrastructure would it destroy?

It's maybe .5 kilos across, so it would probably destroy a small city minimum.

Hmmm. Toss it at the Kelrthrad System, Asiago planet, Latitude: -41.18864, Longitude: -49.20909

I'll order another capital ship built along with another planet-buster missile in case you need more containment after that- I need to replentish my fleet anyways.

Okay guys I accidentally awakened Rly'rethazur, The Demon of The Black Hole, while I was firing my cannons at a hostile scouting ship in the Kerthin System. I'm trying to escape but fuel is low and all I have is an energy bomb, any advice on how to defeat this thing?

[Greiger]

That was in the game way back when.  Back before you could properly fire at what is now long range missile range.  I hear it's AI was not updated to compensate so if you have some way to hit it from that range you may be good.

Failing that max tech levels weren't as high then either, if you have any teir 6 or better armor plates in cargo and you have the ability to do a mid flight armor replacement that might buy you a bit of time, but I can't guarantee how much.  I think teir 4 was the best you could get back then, and it tore through that pretty fast, so even with modern armor I would avoid getting hit when possible.  If you have shield generators keep them down and redirect power elsewhere, completely ignores shields not tuned in a particular way, and nobody really stocks the ones with the capability anymore.  Also if you have one, set your CIWS system to offensive.  Hardwire it if you have to, the loot will make up for buying a replacement.  It shoots no missiles, and even remotely modern CIWS systems have the DPS to overcome it's armor rating long as you can keep alive long enough to whittle it down..

Thats all the advice I have though I'm afraid, I'm nowhere near there or I would swing by to help out.  If you have none of that, yer probably SOL.  It's an old boss, but still a boss.

Geez, I haven't even made it to space yet. Can someone help me get to that part of the questlines?

Spoiler: OOC (click to show/hide)

Also, would you mind if I used this idea for another forum, as well? I think they would like it..

Well, there are multiple quests for space access. Other players can fill you in about their favorites and how to start them, but I want to warn you about the one that is actually a trap and will get you permanently barred from obtaining a space visa. You can still fly without one, but you can't take off from legitimate spaceports, and, if the space police catch you, you'll be immediately deported to your planet of origin (which has some uses in certain exploits, but generally it's not worth it).

So, the quest I'm talking about is the one where you deliver a "container of unknown contents" that you receive from Skeevy Steve to his contact on Vega V.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It turns out that the contact is in fact his girlfriend, and the "container of unknown contents" contains some candy and a letter. A problem occurs in the fact that the letter contains the name of another girl. In the ensuing quest, you will perform various and sundry tasks in the attempt to get Steve back together with his girl, and the entire chain is too long for me to recount here. I will make mention, however, of a crucial point in the quest, when you have in your possession, a marmoset. If you click on the marmoset, you will notice that there is a certain option available. You'll know what it is when you see it. Taking this option is what will permanently bar you from a space visa, as well as place you on certain lists.

Spoiler: OOC (click to show/hide)

Sure, that's no problem at all. What forum is it, by the way?

[Powder Miner]

Dude, I think your Demon think suicided itself on my empire. And destroyed it.
...Guess I better make a new character.
How about a Duality Master? Make an interesting Mercenary. I think I'll do that...

Oh darn, I really want a space visa! On the other hand, being a sneaky pirate ninja space-pirate would be pretty cool...thanks!

The forums at GameOgre.com, it's a portal for MMO games, long story short.

Well, you only lose the ability to gain a space visa by

doing the thing with the marmoset.

If you don't do that, you'll be fine. And the option to do so only comes up if you also have a rubber band, a jar of melange, at least three swim fins, and an electric spork in your inventory at the time.

Plus, I've heard that you can still be teleported if you have a space visa if it's in your bank at the time. I don't know whether this is true or not, because I don't possess one, but that would make sense, so it probably isn't.

[ggamer]

Okay, so I got this game about three days ago, and... I think I might have broken the game.

So!

I was a level 23 Earth mage, just got done with the sector 27 brood mare, and was pretty excited. I was kind of ready to get into the space quests and... uh... I didn't read the wiki, and since I built my base on shattered heights (Don't ask, I didn't start the base building phase until around level 15), I figured I could... build my way up, I guess? Sort of homestuck style, I don't know, I was rather tired and I wasn't thinking straight. So... I got up pretty high, building sensor beacons every six or so stories so that the various flying objects wouldn't crash into my tower.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Then I got a message from the game saying that my sensors were picking up screeches from the heights above.

At that point I had recruited a few frost giants (Don't ask how, it was dirty and involved fire giant murder) and had two squads of Carpathian mercenaries, kitted out in kimberlin gear with assault rifles.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I got another message that said I had reached too high, and that the dregs of the heavens were coming to end me. All I could see was a single enemy, whose name was *Retribution* and description only had one character.

&

Safe to say I was losing. My first frost giant and three of the carpathians pulled aggro, while my remaining squad laid down cover fire. My aggro frost giant was gutted almost immediately. However, while it was murdering my poor FG my mechanic was able to bring online a few hellfire turrets I had set up on the roof *just in case*, so the & was immediately fucked up. I had thought it was over, but then the skybox started changing colors (a feature I was not aware it had) and multiple &'s with the same features as the first started descending from the sky. My mechanic was able to bring up a couple more warp and earth turrets, but I told him and a few other houskeeping staff I had to evacuate the base. My carpathians took the brunt of the assault, poor bastards never stood a chance. It seemed like whenever a & was taken down, six more took it's place. I dipped into my backpack emergency pinecone/obsidian supply, using my strongest technique (E-magetech level 21-N: pinecones of the ancestor), which had to have killed over three hundred of the bastards. Unfortunately, as I was mage-ing around thousands of g worth of obsidian and pinecones, my second frost giant took a flame bolt to the face, dying in seconds.

It was clear at this point that the situation was hopeless. I told my last frost giant to evacuate, and he got out with several pretty bad wounds, but it's better than a melted face. I was mulling over the spell list, and a new one opened up that I've never seen before (Endtech level 9001: I'll take all you son's a bitches when I go). I activated it, and HOLY SHIT, it was the most epic thing i've seen. The very earth itself began swallowing up the tower, and, I shit you not, the ACTUAL demons (the ones that came from the more common dug too deep message) came up to battle the &'s, in the most insane graphical display I've ever seen. It ended with my mage entombed in the deepest corners of the circus (little Dwarf fortress reference there, sorry), and I think a few of the quest parameters on world #5986 have changed.

[Putnam]

Don't fuck with the forces of supernature.

[Powder Miner]

5986?! My Human Duality Master's on 5986!! Was doing some mercenary work, but OH GOD I'M ON THAT CONTINENT TOO!
Wanna team up to take care of this? I can get you into space afterwards. I'll be two humans in light cloak armor with sniper gear/heavy armor and a rip-sword. Quick, too, please!
