And the spray paint.
Sure, go with the same general shape of the Occulus, I like that idea better.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

I think everyone agrees on continuing Valhalla research without any changes?
I am starting to do the first part of turn while you discuss Bїfrost or whatever you plan to design as the second project

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

I agree with continuing research on Valhalla. It could hold some Bïfrost-I's, right?

The Bifrost is 460 m3. The Valhalla is a cargo ship, hence probably quite large for it's class. Maybe around 10.000 m3 Let's assume that size inefficiencies and non cargo area uses up to 25% of that. Leaves us with enough space for 16 drones.

Nine times five times two is 90. More like 80, in an ideal world. 50, certainly, if it wasn't holding other stuff.

the only thing we discussed for changing the valhalla was going to a conventional jet engine, and that went nowhere, so yeah, go ahead and do the first part while we decide on the next project


Just to be clear, what were the ships seriously proposed for this turn?

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Sorry for double post, but I'm just gonna make a list of what we want for this turn.

So far, it seems the serious designs for this turn are RAM's transforming laser drone, GWG's Bifrost rainbow-shaped laser drone, and my Voror(no idea how to do umlauts) twin laser fighter. Am I missing anything?

And maybe drop a hint that a space elevator would really speed things up.

I dropped the rainbow-shaped idea. Now it's supposed to be Occulus-shaped. I should probably change that...

You could add some aditionall lenses in the design, allowing for the drone to recieve incoming lasers from it's friends and add their strength to it's own. Then it would really be a bridge of light.
