Dark Heavens | Space Ship Girls Quest [Original Setting]

Gotcha, thanks.

(Makes me wonder who the 6 was. Probably a cruiser, but...)

At least most of them did, yeah.

 

Yes! Total victory!

Who's the little sister now?

Tempted by forcing them to join us, but... we're only just barely getting to know our new team. Is now really the time to conscript new concubines minions?

Maybe a very excellent justification write-in could convince me. Not sure.

Edited to include redaeth's suggestions.

Is that 1 subsystem from each ship or 1 subsystem overall?

 

I dunno, I'm feeling pretty intimidating right now.

What do you folks think? One from each cruiser we just totally owned, plus one from Shoryuu for being a meanie?
/trying to resist making demands that would require the thread to be moved...

 

I'll wait until someone write justification of press-ganging them.

 

Sounds good to me. So adding
-[] Demand a subsystem each from both cruisers and Shoryuu. They have been harassing your sisters for months and they deserve recommencement for repairs made, and having to flee again and again.
-[] If they refuse make a show of powering up your broadsides and tracing their fresh wounds with your PD.

I know Bii said one overall, but is that just 1 for our fleet, or 1 for each of our members (if 1 each I'll assume the others would pick their own systems, not us picking them)? Also if we choose to take something we already have better of (like weapons) would that count towards an upgrade if we did it often enough, or would it just be a waste of a choice?

I don't really like the part that calls her a coward- they pretty much just had their entire fleet ripped apart by an ambush, and are facing a ridiculously well armed cruiser and 6 subs. At this point I think them surrendering is the smart thing to do, not any sign of cowardice.

 

Well, yes. But we're flush with victory, and we're entitled to rub it in.
/insert puns here

Good enough for now. Adding this to my vote.

 

[X] Accept their surrender.

If it is one for the fleet then I'd recommend seeing about getting Big Sis ChiChi either some fighters or some better weapons. As is we are likely the strongest individual here (equipment wise, experience can make a difference), we should probably focus on the others for now. The subs could use better weapons and armor, better repair systems all around couldn't hurt, but upgrading ChiChi with fighters seems like it would be the biggest boost to me.

That said no need to make up our minds yet, they might have something that isn't immediately evident that would help. I'm just listing possibilities based on what has already been seen.

 

[X] Force them to join you as new minions... wait... what?!? [Write In Required to Justify]
-[X] By simple law of salvage you now own their asses... Any arguement to the contrary can be met with the reminder that not only did you spare their lives but that you would be allowing them to continue to be able to fly.
--[X] Take or install what ever means necessary to essentially remote control your new girls and ensure that they can't engineer an easy escape.

 

Press-gang them?

 

'By simple law of salvage you now own their asses... Assets you meant Assets'

'that's not much better'

 

I find it interesting that they stopped short of sinking them because that would be murder. Creates a very different impression of war between them than humans.

Didn't realize that was an option!

Hmm...

I'm thinking... Carrier Special for Chi-Chi? I'm leery of the drawbacks, though.

 

I'd like the very heavy armour, but at the same time, not getting hit > taking a hit, usually.

The parasite craft would be cool, too, but at the same time, I'm also leery of the drawbacks, what with it being a special subsystem. Something to keep in mind is that we could take it, not use it, and keep it for trading at a later date, though.

The best option, I'd say, is either taking the heavy broadside or the medium proton missile turrets, and taking them for ourselves, because that'd turn us into an absolute beast in combat. Alternatively, outfitting Chi-Chi with some missile turrets would be nice...

[X] Accept the cowards surrender
-[X] Take one subsystem (Heavy Broadsides)
--[X] Add onto our own loadout

Pros

• Probably no difficulties in installing (being from a similar class of ship)
• Will turn us into a secret weapon, so we can consider more regularly fighting opponents for subsystems.
• Will have likely have a lesser cost for building ammunition than the proton missile launchers

Cons

• It might be hard to convince our new posse to let us take the lion's share of the benefits
• It will make us a bigger target

Kind of in the middle

• Any future strategies will depend on us

 

See, I'm figuring our own weapons are good enough. Chi-Chi, being huge, probably does have room for the carrier subsystem, and it would give her the offensive/defensive capability to turn her into a real mothership.

Er, older-sistership. Whatever.

 

[X] Carrier Special.
