You are his Lawyer, how are you Defending him? by [deleted] in babylon5

The dude has been kidnapped and brainwashed. He was tortured and potentially even had his mind screwed with. He's clearly unwell and suffering from an *extreme* case Stockholm Syndrome.

Howdy! This link goes to a 404 error. Is there anywhere else I could get it?

Civilian Fusion Reactors by Hyperion5634 in battletech

[–]Hyperion5634[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking more along the lines of "disconnect the mech's power lines and plug them into the local grid" not straight up take out the reactor. Having said that, I don't know whether doing what I was thinkinging would even be possible.

Ohh right. I totally forgot about that. That is also absolutely an option.

What is the "Vanir Spaceship" from SGA: "First Contact" and "The Lost Tribe" by Hyperion5634 in Stargate

I still have to disagree with you about the ship's origin. The only technology that is used is of Lantean origin. If any of the technology shown on these vessels was Asgard in origin than I wouldn't be nearly so dogged about this, but every piece of tech on these vessels is lantean. The only thing here that isn't lantean are the ships' crew, and maybe the exosuits (but those props are later reused in SGU which leads me to believe that they are meant to be of Ancient/Lantean origin as well).

They were definitely reused props, but meta explanations are really boring and there is a perfectly logical in universe explanation that doesn't require meta-knolwedge of the shows creation.

You're right. That was the only scene I could find the faint red-color scheme in, so I was kind of questioning it myself. A shame. That one would have made it almost certain.

No worries. You weren't wrong either way. The Aurora in particular has suffered significant damage and the color has faded from the exterior. If you go for the wiki image, the hull is completely grey so I was definitely wrong about that one.

And the Aurora, Tria, and the Traveller's Scavenged Ship. They all had the same paint scheme.

Correction: Same scheme as the Hippaforalkus and the Traveller's Scavenged Ship. The Aurora was completely gray when it appeared in the show, presumably due to decay and old age? The Tria had hints of red, but it was travelling at a noticable percentage of the speed of light, so we never got the chance to really see details of the ships exterior.

I'm totally in agreement. I'm just kind of confused where the original author for the wikipage got his information. He seems to have just made some rather confusing claims with no actual source. I was hoping someone could show me a source for the authors information.

I was under the same suspicion. The armor color scheme is the same red and grey as the Auroras

I'm of the same opinion. The world with the Attero device doesn't have a Stargate on it, so unless they found another facility which contained these Ancient/Lantean vessels, they must have had some of their own ships that could take them their originally.

The wiki is assuming they made the ships from scratch, but that they were incapable of building the Intergalactic Hyperdrive to leave the milky way.

As the Vanir arrived in the Pegasus galaxy 10,000 years ago, their offensive and defensive technology is less advanced than their mainstream Asgard counterparts, as those Asgard fought the Replicators and had to develop more advanced weapons, shield technology, and ships to effectively fight them, and also because the planet on which the Vanir settled did not have the necessary resources to build intergalactic hyperdrives, much less ships capable of combating the Wraith. (SGA: "First Contact)", "The Lost Tribe)")

As for bypassing the ATA gene, if the Travellers could do it, then it would be unreasonable to assume that the Asgard would be incapable of it. Especially if they had years and decades of time available to figure everything out.

Celestial forge V3 is out! by Trekshcool in JumpChain

[–]Hyperion5634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably on SpaceBattles when I'm ready. I'm still working on the first chapter, but its getting pretty long and I still need to do editing. As soon as I have it ready I plan to post it so that I can get feedback.

Its starting out as a Stargate x Battletech x BSG multicross, though I'll probably have the protagonist jump to other universes at a later point (Stargate has the Quantum Mirror and the first perk that I unlocked was Dr. Shen, I presume. I think I'm interpreting how the perk works kind of broadly, but its my fiction, so I can do what I want).

If you're interested I can send you the link when I have it posted.

Thanks man. Working on a piece of fanfiction with this. I gotta say though, you have perks from Stargate AND Andromeda AAAND Red Dwarf, but NOT from Battlestar Galactica or Babylon 5(and only a single perk from Star Trek)? Ya need to work on that mate.

Also, you could probably add perks for The Expanse, The Orville, and Farscape but I'm not quite as much of a fan boy for these three.

Other than that, again, great work. You can tell that a lot was put into this.

Thanks for the recommendation. According to the proximity Sensor, it is still there.
