Shing!, but what about NPCs & plots? Or trolls? All of those justify making interesting weaponry... Plus, it is an interesting mental exercise to try to either go bigger & better, or to make something new & esoteric.

OOG @Magery:

I'm thinking MUCH bigger & more grandiose... But it (Both parts, which will yield insane amounts of energy) will not be revealed until I actually make the project, which will put a similar system on the R.S.V. 'Phoenix' first & foremost; then the planetary mountings. (Not predictable in the slightest... *End fatal doses of sarcasm...*)

"Or trolls?"

Yet when I try to wipe out a troll you guys give him a chunk of California.


I presume you mean Itblobboy, I didn't give him part of California. I just let his colonists camp out in the desert of California until they could get a permanent place to stay. I don't see how he is a troll, what has he done to be called that?

I'm more referring to Darknis & his ilk. Itblobboy is not truly meeting the criteria of 'troll'...

Edit:

Slightly rephrasing it then... 'Darknis & his ilk, behaving as such.'

However, I have absolutely no idea how much energy that is; I could probably make ballpark estimates based on the what-if xkcd pages and on how much energy is released in fusion reactions (multiplied by a ridiculous number given every single atom is undergoing fusion, not unlike the core of a star) if I really wanted to, but I don't as of yet. Suffice to say it'd be quite a lot.


Fusion in the sun generates as much as 100,000 nuclear bombs going off at the same time....in one second. That's how powerful fusion is. The largest nuclear bombs use fusion ideas to create massive energy outputs. However for civil purposes, fusion would usually be using hydrogen fusion technology (What the sun does). In today's standard, we're '30 year' away from fusion tech (been that way for about 40 years.)

Essentially, fusion can create enough energy to devasate the oil sector of any economy. Its unlimited clean energy. That's only if you can start the chain reaction and sustain said reaction and maintain a generation of power instead of using it. (At this point in time in game, we pretty much have fusion tech).

Sith, I feel obligated to point out now that Eno's country is more accurately referred to as the Ascendant Kingdom rather than the Remnent Kingdom (by the way, the word itself is actually spelled "remnant", not "remnent", though the mistake is easily understandable when you consider the way you actually pronounce it).

Also, woo, Sparkadia won a silver medal! I should check back and see what else we on, because I do remember seeing the name mentioned in the earlier medal post.

EDIT: We have also won a bronze. Hooray!

Also, Sith, if you didn't yet know (stupid question, of course you'd know, but it's cool enough to announce anyway), scientists in the US have managed to actually engineer an end-positive fusion reaction in the last week or so.

Which is all kinds of awesome.
