over lode
for the breen i whood like to see a wepond that whood use all thare speshal enargy that whood parilise a ship as seen in a episode of ds9 whare the defint was distroyed.

anit terits
a nuther idea is giving a dom ship a wepond that whood fier: a beem, a lard pulls berst, and a torpedo one after the uther very qicky. as a spethal atack. that whood be most efetive aginsted stations / terits.

anti clock
a nuther wepond that when used whood cose all cloked ships neer by to resive damge and declock. with wepond whood work by relising an lite blast that whood whood over lode cloking deives. clocking devises work on binding lite the idea here whood be what haponds if thare is to much lite. the wepond whood look like a flash from a camra.

If someone would be kind enough to translate this into coherent english. I dont want to keep being a dick about this but I would like to know what is being proposed without taking some advil to get through it.

The three weapons ewm described were:

1 - Overload: The energy dampning weapon the Breen used in DS9.
I've already been talking to Optec about this. I even had a shot at making it myself. He said he'd look into it.

2 - Anti turret: A special attack that fires a repeating sequence of phaser, pulse cannon and torpedo in sucession. Designed to be used against turrets and stations
Certainly a new idea. Not really sure about this one.

3 - Anti-Cloak A weapon that fires a burst of light around the ship, overloading the cloaking devices on enemy ships and causing them to decloak.
The concept is good. Its true cloak works by bending light, but i'm not sure if there can actually be too much light. I'll have to check the theory.

why 3 we all have takeyon defence?

First 2 are nice, third as eufnoc said we already have tachion scane

but this one is loched by a ship and coses damge to clocked vesals.

how does light cause the damage? would have to be some other sort of energy to be believeable, no? anyway during the dominion war i don't ever recall anyone using tachyon scans at all let alone one that will do damage, for that one i think what we have is ok. they already have a weapon that will do damage based on how many special weapons a ship has, thats gonna be a monster weapon as it is, what with the different special stages

well sins clocking devises bend like to make tham selfs invisabule what haponds if thare is to much lite to fast it mite dameg the clocking devises.

a sun emits the most light and not even that overloads a cloaking device and the dominion uses proton particles to detect cloak.

the other 2 are good, but the second one sounds just like an alpha strike where you hold your fire till all weapons are available and then shoot them all at once

The anti-turret thing doesn't make any sense ... a pulse would be wasted on a station. Torpedo burst (go Feds!) is the best anti-turret and anti-station weapon out there.

I really like the "camera flash" idea though.

well an "overloaded lightsource" basically is a laser and a laser does exactly zero damage to a modern starship armor (remember voyager touching suns, fed vessels observing super novae and the like). the only known way to identifiy and interact with a cloaked starship are giant graviton sources (seen in some star trek books were the hero identifies the presence of a warbird nearby a large planet by its gravitation field) and tachyon particles. Sadly we don't know all de detials about cloaking technology but i think they wouldn't have dispatched a whole fleet to establish a tachyon detection between the rommi and klingon border if a simple laser would have done it.

I like the anti turret weapon and will have a closer look on it

the breen battleship will have a dampaning torpedo that disables systems. i want to improve it with later added features so maybe its purpose and exspecially the graphical effects may be enhanced in post-v3 release

its just an idea what abote in seted of like we make it a radeaton berst that shelds pertect aginsted along with uther ship futions that are terned off for clocke that looks like a lite berst that sawnd beter.

thanks Optec, I think we're all waiting on tiptoe for the dominion/breen!

Good news and bad news


Bad news first: I cant' tell you anything further on the dominion, so the best is yet to come

Good news: I'm working on the track for the Dominion, and I should have most of it done by the end of the weekend. I may upload a teaser of the song soon.

Peace,
