"Takamichi?" I inquire.

I snap my fingers.
Takamichi…
Takamichi…
Takamichi…

Definitely Kintharian.

"Uh... You mean nose-bitch?" I say.

It's the only Kintharian I'm actually familiar with.

"Yeah. Her."

I walk from the bookstore to get something to eat.
They only had donuts and bagels and coffee in that place.

"Yeah. Her."

"I haven't seen her," I reply.


I've been theorizing about these famous Zentragothic tank battalions and I could probably throw together a design and some specifications on what invincible tank they'd be using.

"Swear to the gods I just saw her walk out of that shop."

[7:15:18 AM] Qwepir: hurricane is theorizing stats for the imperial tanks' specs
[7:15:40 AM] Qwepir: i cant post but i can get him started
[7:26:29 AM | Edited 7:32:50 AM] Qwepir: 100 tons, sciencemagic missile scrambling (only works reliably against infantry portable missiles, not plane agms), two heavy weapon omnimounts on the turret (standard armament is two forgethuge cannons but they can take pretty much whatever, including autocannons, miniguns, missiles, ppcs, etc), five HMGs (two forward hullmounted, one rear hullmounted, one coaxial, and one turret pintle mounted), and armored with a classified type of ceramic-steel matrix. its max speed is no greater than 65 kph and its greatest foes are mud, maintenance, and attack planes
[7:29:21 AM] Qwepir: thats their invincible supertank
[7:29:42 AM] Qwepir: their mbt is more standard but still very very tough

NAUC's next iteration of their aerial fleet should emphasize comparably cheap patrol boat-style ships that are ludicrously fast and have enough firepower (maybe a rail cannon and lots of missiles?) to punch holes through most armor. These things would probably be much smaller and faster targets in comparison to what was blown up so far. Of course these things would get blown up easily, but NAUC's larger ships haven't had much luck in that department.

[xxxxkill]

Literally what you are saying is "Use bigger planes" because the NAUC air navy is not a literal Air Navy like the Imperials have. It's just super huge planes, rather than flying battleships and submarines. In addition I would like to point out that the most recent incursion with the Imperial Aeronautical forces was a radar-deflecting, cloaking air submarine designed to take down larger forces with little detection, kind of like an actual submarine. In addition it was a battle between a crewed ship in more or less tip-top shape and a set of damaged aeronautical craft on the run, operating on a skeleton crew, limited armament, and sending a single squad on a sortie.

use faster bigger planes with better guns

edit:

actually you might have better luck putting a railgun on a 747-sized aircraft

[Juncoph]

i feel like the armor for the supertank could be more creative

ceramic-steel matrix composite armors are 1970s tech irl

They operate destroyers, but they don't just slap railguns on 747s.

Qwepir doesn't want to pull "ultra-dense carbon-fiber ferro-ceramic composites" and quite frankly, neither do I, under most circumstances. Besides, ceramic-steel armor works just fine, and if anybody's going to be pulling "lightweight carbon-fiber titanium alloys" it's going to be the Kinths and not the Imperials.

[Juncoph]

the ferro prefix would indicate the presence of iron

so you already have a ferro-ceramic matrix

i was thinking advanced reactive armor

also defensive shotgun style systems, like trophy for example
