Look, if you don't like us or this story, then go elsewhere. If this is all you have to offer, I can tell you now, you won't be missed. If you're looking for a permenant IP ban, then I'm sure one of the mods here can arrange it for you. Stuff like you posted is completely uncalled for on a public webboard where a lot of children visit. Knock it off.

We prefer your extinction to the loss of our job."

Attention All Vessels!
This is Redchigh! High Commander of the Vinian Order!

I just got back from a guilt trip, and I am wondering f it would be possible for me to end any disputes I have with anyone. I would rather fight for justice and Right. Intergalactic Justice.

I will gladly give credits to persuade anyone to make peace with me. I will want to keep my planets, but I will pay you in credits or ships.

Please Respond. I hereby announce war against the Renegades!
(but i can't post often, so if you make a post involving destruction, give me time to respond)

Over and out.
PEACE

insantiy and ingenious is
measured just by success.

Why'd you do that Red? The Voinians are conquerers, not peaceful. And why attack the Renegades? If you attack them, then I attack you. Besides, if you want peace, why attack the Renegades?

Also, you are currently in a war with the UE, Igadzra, and Miranu. Your allies are the Azdgari, Corocians, and Renegades.

I have a suspicion that Little **** is Flatty. Carno, Kiwi retook some system without giving Esponer time to respond.

Uh, okay, I accept. You don't have to pay me anything, but I'll agree to a non-agression pact. Does that sound good?

<Psssst> (Is somebody impersonating Redchigh? That last post sounds a little un-chighish, somehow. Sorry if you are offended by that or anything Red, but it seems odd.)

Research has turned toward created a sub-space transistor chip. It would have a host of applications, military and non-military.

Construction on the C.R.S. Freedom is going nicely. Work on the nano-biogenic virus weapons is almost finished, and is now being tested.

Sources lay claims that the thing being built on my base is a supercruiser. In an indefinate, chaotic universe, the only thing definite is chaos.

It seems that I can trust nobody. The Voinians, with who I have maintained neutrality for years mysteriously turn against me, my Corocian allies are pressuring me to use weapons that would only serve the purpose of killing more innocent civilians, and, in all this mess, the Igadzra are sweeping though the South tip!

An insane renegade faction has broken away and moved to the North Tip, where they are orbiting Munb and building, out of scrap metal "the weapon to end the war." Despite the fact that they posess no obvious technical skills and persist in destroying any ship that comes into the system, Renegade or other, bearing food or shiled capacitors, for hull parts needed in building the device, they appear to be making good progress. Nonetheless, I do NOT approve and will attempt to destroy them.

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE!
(Lies are in your head.)

Entropy, you said earlier you would make a nuclear attack on the Igadzra.

Work on the nano-biogenic weapons has been completed. In all, there are 6 different types, or strains, of the weapons.

Strain 1-Kills off all types of plants
Strain 2-Kills off all bacteria/insects/fungi and hampers plant growth
Strain 3-Gives people bad coughs and headaches
Strain 4-Gives people severe skin and eye irritation
Strain 5-Gives people severe nausea and vomiting
Strain 6-Gives people severe feaver and disorientation and dizzyness

These symptoms last for 3 weeks, and 2 weeks if treated well and with the correct medication. However, it is possible that the biogenic nano-virus's may be able to remain for 4 weeks if the conditions are right.

Nano-Biogenic weaponry is extremely adaptable, and almost impossible to destroy or stop. They rely on specifically designed nano-viruses with specially enhanced DNA and bio technology. They are bred using specialized methods, and are then loaded into the missiles that deploy them. Corocian scientists do not believe these weapons will lead to death, they are made to gradually wear down on the Igadzra and UE and eventually force them to surrender.

These weapons are deployed using missiles a bit larger then nuclear missiles, and twice as fast as SAE modules. The missiles detonate in the atmosphere, spreading the invisible viruses. Of course, this is only the standard anti-colony method. There are some other methods for other uses, but this is the primary use..The nano-viruses can spread across an entire planet in 24 hours, are spread by contact and by air, and can break through most seals and decontamination tecniques.

-----------------

The first use of nano-biogenic weapons was chosen by Carnotaur himself; the Igadzra. Exact target; Ragni, the Igadzra's main food producer.

In secret, the cloaked C.R.S. Apollyon orbited Ragni, and launched one biogenic missile into the atmosphere. This missile contained the Strain 2 nano-virus. It would greatly hamper food production because some insects, fungi, and bacteria are essential to the survival of some planets and the keeping of their health. The missile also contained a small amount of the Strain 1 nano-virus, but only enough to test it.

The virus will completely cover the planet in about three or four days because only one (cloaked) missile was launched. The Igadzra are totally unaware of what the Corocians are doing.

--------------

Two large cities on Knox were also hit by the Strain 3 nano-virus. However, because the nano-viruses were launched in a certain proceedure, only these two cities are affected.

The Corocians are using the attack on Ragni and Knox as a test for the capabilities of nano-biogenic weaponry.

Bummer.

Maybe I'll try to get in the story later - some other way.

Or maybe y'all can invite me!

Or maybe I'll stick to writing Sagas?

And I will offer you one chance to quickly and immediately edit or delete that post of yours because I just revoked it.

ElGuapo, here are a few reasons why your post was revoked:

1-Thunder, and the rest of the galaxy, knows nothing of the nano-biogenic virus. In fact, only the captain of the Apollyon, a few Corocian scientists, Captain Scorcher, Carnotaur, and a few high ranking officials know about it.

2-The nano-virus was never used on Thunder. He hasn't even gotten his first patients, and I don't think he ever will. Station Unity is a refugee station, not a medical hospital for people with minor illnesses.

3-The nano-virus is not only power, look at the name: Nano. Nano means One-billionth, or 10 to the -9th power. So, these viruses are one billionth the size of a normal virus. However, they are just as effective. The imune system can't stop them, most medications don't effect them, the only problem is that their life span is only 2-3 weeks. The genetic mutations to the nano-virus has been extreme, and it's almost not even a virus anymore.

4-Besides, because of their small size, it would take a long time to even find them.

5-The Corocians are very tight with their security. In fact, their security is the best in the galaxy.

Please edit or delete your post.

Just some more information on the nano-virus:

Definition of a virus:

Quote

Any of various simple submicroscopic parasites of plants, animals, and bacteria that often cause disease and that consist essentially of a core of RNA or DNA surrounded by a protein coat.

The genetic enhancements not only make the nano-virus effective, quick working, and controllable, the RNA/DNA structure has also been changed to form something called NMERNA/NMEDNA. The "NME" stands for Nano-Mutation-Enhancement, making the RNA and DNA practically untouchable by radiation and conventional methods of destroying it.

Not only this, but the protein coat is synthesized using normal protein and that of nano xrathium fibers, which is why the nano-viruses cannot reproduce, and will eventually die within 2-3 weeks. The protein/xrathium coat also makes the virus extremely strong. However, since the nano-viruses cannot reproduce, the Corocians need approximately 2 billion times more nano-viruses to be effective and not die off quickly. To do this, a barrage of at least three missiles must be fired.

ok thank a lot Now Samuria do you have anything I should do or should I just go on my own.

Samurai calls Captain Blackwing to his office. As Blackwing enters, Samurai motions him to a chair.

"Ah, Captain Blackwing. It's good of you to come so quickly. I need you for something... rather special."

"What's that, sir?"

"Well, I've just recieved word that UE Science Corps has developed a prototype sub-space transistor chip for us. This chip, if attached to a small vessel, would allow it to quickly phase in and out of this dimension. The result would be that you could perform short-range, controlled teleportation within a system. Naturally, this would give our Fighters a tremendous maneuverability advantage in combat. I'd like you to test out this little gadget. We've fixed up a UE Fighter for you, so you may launch when ready. If you encounter any hostile forces, you may engage, but retreat if the odds start to look bad. We wouldn't want anyone to get their hands on that little chip, now would we?"

"No sir."

"Here's the passcodes to the UE Fighter. Good luck, Captain. Dismissed."
