Nation Building Rifts in Space

Alright, sorry.
Even if they were ripped, they would probably burn a fuck ton of calories running that fast, especially with four legs. Cheetahs, which can run at like 40 MPH, can only maintain short sprints.
We'll just pump them full of nutrients and whatever Ant steroids we have lying around.
 
I'm actually fine with th

Also. I'm actually fine with these creatures going fast, being really strong, etc. But they should have the trade off of this: Shitty tech (in terms to everytone else) You can have a OMEGA level size military with good tech and overwhelming soldiers without some sort of trade off. I don't think they should be firing .50cal rifles just due to the resource cost to them. They should be using crudely made rifles and equipment in my opinion.

The spear hooks a bit with the shoulder, and I just assumed y'all envision a little aiming groove in the armor. If not, long ant arms holding it with ease. Ants never really had soft parts.

Dude, you don't even know resource cost.


I got a mobile airborne weapons platform with at least 20 M2 Brownings on it.

My guys are never really going to have shields or that many brilliant maneuvers, and the Queens, are, to a degree, the weakest link.

I can make an assumption. Which I am doing for purely pratical and logical reasons. Mass producing that type of ammunation would be stupid for someone like that race. Why invest so much money into a single soldier who you will be sending into hordes of enemy, using the mass of your army to over power them. You'll produce single shot rifles which will be discarded to them charge or use as a (horrible) spear.


Which brings me too.

Do you know the kick of a .50cal rifle? Terrible. That spear will gouge that shoulder or be inaccurate mate. Even with super strength.

Good tech isn't just shields and etc. It's firearms, tanks, ships, and the quaility of said items.

Yeah, that's why it's so long, with the little jagged bits. Helps stabilize the rifle, which, along with the strength, would at best gouge the guy behind him. We also have no money. Or real cost for most things. Only the 'Lost' actually have that sort of thing.

Ah, I see what you mean.


But still, I got some pretty fucking insane stuff in my faction.


I got a Baneblade, a Dragon Gunship, a Karl Thor...

That implies the vehicles are more or less weaker.

I'm not exactly an expert on firearms, but that's not how you stabilize a firearm.


You stabilize a firearm by either reducing the caliber, adding recoil absorbers into the stock of the gun, or mount it onto a solid object.

I didn't use 'money' for a reason. I used resources. The raw resource you would need to produce. Also survive. But again just expressing my thoughts.


Not really my problem will we come to your doorstep or vice versa.


.....If the queens prove to be able to communicate I'm sure some Vastimian will try to marry one sooner or later. Lmao.

It mostly serves the purpose to make the weapon move in a way that doesn't harm the user, instead of completely controlling the inevitable recoil; it just sorta makes it moot.

We also use construction material as currency.

Jesus Christ, if you marry one Queen it would be like marrying all of them, they basically share the same mind.
