COSMIC DUST, or how I can't help in war.
« on: May 02, 2014, 10:54:39 am »
YOU FIGHT AGAINST INEVITABILITY, DUST STRUGGLING AGAINST COSMIC WINDS. THIS SEEMS A VICTORY TO YOU, FOUR ARMADAS DESTROYED. BUT EVEN NOW, YOUR GREATEST CIVILIZATIONS ARE DOOMED TO FALL. IT TOOK YOU ONE MONTHS TO DESTROY THESE ARMADAS AND MAKE THAT SYSTEM DEFENSELESS. IN THE MEANWHILE, WE CREATED SIX ARMADAS, DOOMING YOU TO FAIL AS THE TIME YOU WASTE FIGHTING AGAINST THEM MEANS YOU ARE LAGGING BEHIND IN THE TECHNOLOGY RACE. YOU CANNOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THESE WARS, AS YOU ARE NOTHING. AT BEST, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DESTROY TEN ARMADAS. A MERE DROP IN THE SEA COMPARED TO THE HUNDRED OF ARMADAS THE UNION CAN RAISE. YOUR ALLIANCE WILL FALL, AND YOU WILL DIE WITH THEM, BECAUSE, IN THAT WAR, ALL YOU DO IS DESPERATE. YOU CANNOT WIN A WAR BY YOURSELF, SHEPA- I MEAN HYDRA.
This is the part where I quote someone in an attempt to look clever? Nah, too mainstream. I used signatures before it was cool.

And while I'm talking to myself about how I basically can't do feces (do the hydra even excretes? How does it survive in space?) in fights, I'd also really like to cry about the lack of pacific actions to deal with the opposition.

I'm not saying everyone in the galaxy should be a treehugger peltian (as opposed to the facehugger thoraxian, whose hugs are not friendly), but what I'm saying is that the anti-federation are basically space conspiracy freaks. I always imagine them as aliens with tinfoil hats, saying "the space elevator was an inside job ! OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE, IT'S ALL A CONSPIRACY", and I'd really enjoy an option to deal with them in a pacific way (like, I dunno, creating another conspiracy to cover the conspiracy that the Hydra made the Federation, or create a scandal with the leader of the reopenspaceelevator.com forum to make them lose all credibility). And also because killing the space conspiracy freaks makes three of my heads cry tears of sadness. While the other is laughing.

And also because I want to make a "yo dawg I heard you liked conspiracy so I put a conspiracy in your conspiracy so you can denounce conspiracies while denouncing conspiracies" joke.
