MotherShip Cross-realm attacking

The Nox and Re'tu may have thought of something to hide people in, but we, Goa'uld always find our ways to wage war upon our foes, where-ever they are.

Official Communiqué, May 23d, 2007. From KGB HQ.
***
Comrades, fellow Goa'uld, and all others, this is Jadzia.

It has come to our attention that the new technology, so naively provided to all races by rogue Nox and the cursed Re'tu, is being applied by villainous hostiles as a means of hiding. They steal entire planets, and hide within the Inferior Realm known to all as Pergatory (sic!).

We Goa'uld have been engaged in mutual hostilities with the Re'tu for a substantial time. We have even engaged the Nox themselves at a few occasions, leading to their ultimate doom at the hands of the Greatest of Our Kind, Anubis.

Comrades! This abomination cannot continue to exist! The very fabric of our race is being thwarted, poked and prodded by the villainesque ruffians that have NO regard whatsoever for proper and absolute authority! We will hunt them down where-ever they flee, smoke them out, bring them before us, and end their puny existence, over and over again until the Dreaded Days of Ragnarok and the utter destruction of our own.

Comrades, it is with great pleasure, and incredibly intense enjoyment that I present unto thee, the pride of Goa'uld and Ancient tech-fusion: The MULTIDIMENSIONAL DREADNAUGHT OF DOOM!
Special thanks to the Lords Baal and Mage Merlin for their contributions to this marvel of science and Goa'uldism.

We all know the so-called Planet Thief powers, those villains that seek to conquer and hide. We Goa'uld claim that very principle to be flawed, not to mention terribly inconvenient.
Our MDDnD Doomhammer is capable of striking at the other realm, solely aiming to kill planetary defenses and dimension-shift generators. Knocking the planet out of its standard orbit, like even the most common of MotherShips do, and taking it back to our own.

Surely you can see how this would benefit and balance us all.

Comrades! This is Jadzia, these are the Goa'uld. Hear me.


*********************************************************

OOC: Basically the idea would be to have a MotherShip upgrade (in 'technology') costing a LOT of Naq, ATs and UU, but with the essential effect that you can strike at planets that hide in the Purgatory Realm.
The problem of planet thieves will become more urgent as more and more people begin to realise how beneficial this Realm is to those who wish to hide out... and how good it would be to be able to strike Cross-Realm at those planet thieves and just take the Planet back. ;)

I hope that, if anything, you enjoyed the read. I'm trying to be a bit of a Goa'uld. ;)

interesting idea... with some work, it could be used...

how about, for cost, to have it cost 36 days of MPDSD?
that way, all players can get it, yet still at high cost...

it also needs something in cost to make sure that it wont be easy for multies to get it...



btw, you got a few simple facts wrong:
the nox weren't defeated by anubis...
ragnarok has no meaning to goa'oulds, as it is from norse mythology
merlin wasnt a goa'ould, he was an ancient...

but aside from those facts, nice story...

OOC: As for Merlin being no Goa'uld, he certainly had "The Spark"... also I mentioned it was a Goa'uld-Ancient fusion. :)
Anubis destroying the Nox is adding to the legend that is the myth, that is Anubis... :P
And Ragnarok... hey! What could possibly be a worse Apocalypse to Gods than the great Goetterdaemmerung, death of all Gods? :-D



The cost being MPDSD power is brilliant! Very fitting as well, considering the 'background' of the technologies. Using MPDSD should also remove the inevitable Calimero-effect. :-) Zeratul, you're a genius!

So the Update to your MS itself costs like X amount of MPDSD days, and every attack could cost like 1 MPDSD day... :)

I agree. Planets are not used in the Pergatory realm, so they should be on the "menu" for others. :twisted:

Maybe it should only be able to take planets with beacons on them... :-D

Thanks J.S. for mentioning that elsewhere. ;)

MS should be able to claim back planets across the realms but not take new ones just a thought. Good thread

or just make it so if i steal your planet and go to purgatory its still taking 12/24 hrs (cant memba which) to get to my realm and therefore shouldnt be in purgatory until such time meaning you can still recover it within that time limit, meaning you can get your planets back but cant steal them from those hiding in purgatory for legitamate reasons.

Yea... maybe stealing new ones is a little... evil.

I'm all for saying you can only take 'em back if they have a beacon... otherwise, how hard would it be to *find* such a thing in another dimension, hmm?


Also, (lol) MPDSDed planets could appear takeable in the other realm... (other idea, not as good)

I don't know about no beacon really... it might be a little harsh to rip the planets... then again, those who can't defend their planets shouldn't have 'em in the first place... ;)
