Earth 6.5- The Official "No nukes" version

1)  Robots are a smart investment:  Production is almost free.
2)  Hera is bigger than Earth, so technically a larger net of satellites would be needed to ensure global security.

Regardless, yeah it is rather high.  I will reduce it.

(Currently monitoring Emmerian, Olvaian, New Manhattan and Kintharian defense satellites.)

From now on, all of these will be referred to as "ETOSD" for all general ETOI, ETOS, ETOD and ETOC satellites.
(Energy-Type Orbital Strike Device)

ETOI_Class
(Energy-Type Orbital Interceptor)
 - Used for extreme precision in intercepting missiles from space with a high-energy beam.
 - Can be used to attack specific targets, such as an enemy's weapons cache or a caravan of military gear en route.
Energy Yield:  ^{18.31 EHz}/_sec
Beam Type:  Linear
Beam Radius:  2 cm
Number in Orbit: 28

ETOS_Class
(Energy-Type Orbital Strike)
 - Used for attacking targets on a radius.
 - Will fire a wide beam that will harm or destroy a large area.
 - Can recharge other ETOSD units via transmitter beams.
Energy Yield:  ^{27.72 EHz}/_sec
Beam Type:  Conical
Beam Radius at sea level:  50m
Number in Orbit: 19

ETOD_Class
(Energy-Type Orbital Destroyer)
 - Used for dealing massive amounts of damage to large objects or objects within a large radius.
 - Will fire a highly concentrated beam and have an enormous energy output.
 - Relies on ETOS and ETOC units for ³/₅^ths of its energy collection.
 - Requires a lot of assembly on Hera and in orbit.
Energy Yield:  ^{8.41 ZHz}/_sec
Beam Type:  Linear
Beam Radius:  1dm
Number in Orbit: 18

ETOC_Class
(Energy-Type Orbital Collector)
 - Collects and stores energy from the sun.
 - Can send and receive energy transmitter beams.
Energy Storage:  21.83 ZHz
Number in Orbit: 47

Better, but I still think ETOC is really damn high.  I'm not sure that any country has that many satellites in the air.

[SWAT One]

ETOCs do not actually attack a target, and just charge other satellites.  They're not offensive units.

EDIT:  The EFV-3400 Dåriñus will fly over Citta Santa in a day.

The Teleri president left office today. His last official words as president of Telar were: "My only regret is that it will take longer than I have left to live for history to vindicate me."

More satellites. The moon base is expanded so that there are now tunnels and rooms beneath the main base.

Telar's super soldier project unveils the G3 super soldier. Despite the unpopularity of the project, the new president has decided to go ahead with it anyway, and as long as he doesn't do anything illegal he can't be booted out of office until his term ends. The G3s have all the positives of the G2s without the con of the hormonal imbalance that created aggression problems with the G1 and G2s.

Telar begins working on project 'Eclipse', the launching of a Floating Fortress into space and onto the moon, without destroying it. Work on a Floating Fortress specially designed for space has begun. The scientists are still not sure how they're getting it up there without a metric crapload of gravitium, but if they can't get it into space, it'll still make a killer ship down on Hera.

Better, but I still think ETOC is really damn high.  I'm not sure that any country has that many satellites in the air.

I've been sending plenty of satellites up every year for the past couple decades. More Teleri satellites are sent up every year than all of those Satellites put together. I've been working at this for years, so it obviously does not go beyond the bounds of logic and reason. Besides, you'd be hypocrites if you complained about it now after not caring for, what?, 25 YEARS? MUAHAHAHAHA

Telar starts exporting ginger brandy at lower rates than the rest of the world.

[Plethora]

And in case you still think it's beyond the bounds of reason...

Telar puts 6 satelites into orbit, each serves the purpose of communication.

Teleri satelites are updated with a computer program that is able to control navigational controls in order to prevent any future collisions. Two more satelites have been sent up (this time manned) for the purpose of making sure the update is successfully installed, and doing so manually should the remote transmaission fail.

Telar puts another satellite into orbit. This one is powered by a nuclear generator.

Telar sends more satellites into space.

More satellites.

More satellites.

Telar puts more satellites into orbit.

More Satellites. Saturn has noting on Hera.

More satellites. Telar also puts a base on the moon.

More satellites. Moon base expands.

More satellites.

More satellites.

More satellites. The moon base is expanded so that there are now tunnels and rooms beneath the main base.

Also, More satellites.

Yeah, I doubleposted. :/

[Tomcat]

Can we get blueprints for G1s? I need them for, uh, something.

[SWAT One]

Blueprints for something non-mechanical?  How foolish.  Silly Tom.

It's genetic engineering, we're going to need blueprints for augmentations and chromosomes.

[SWAT One]

Um...  One cannot simply engineer an entire human molecule-by-molecule.

You need the chromosomes themselves and the proper environment to grow it in in order to do that.  If anything, it's not blueprint, but long strings of data sorted into enormous matrices.

Urg.

Also, I doubt that you would be able to have a satellite network twice as thick as mine, unless they were mostly bomber or rocket satellites.

we're not engineering humans, we need to know the chomosomal pattern for the supersoldiers. hence, blueprints!

[SWAT One]

The human genome, modified, hence, data sorted in matrices.
