Radioactive canals? I don't think so.
I'm really struggling to keep up with this thread. We almost completed nano-technology research. We have made first 10 prototypes of new soldier uniforms and suits, which will be very similar to common jugger-naut suit but with similar structure to our infantry armour plates (triangles and very strong materials like B4C and SCi including steel and others) .
RNN engineers have successfully connected nano-technological cameras to the uniforms, improving surveillance and patrols around a large area without having to have a lot of soldiers in a small amount of space.
We also have developed the first Tesla weapon - The Saber Gun. The Saber Gun is too dangerous to be handheld, of course, as it will get very hot and is designed to automatically self destruct after around 5-10 shots. Secret documents explain its primary function - positively charged nano cells are dispensed over a large area, forming a trail from the target (or around it) to the barrel. The barrel then becomes rapidly negatively charged, eventually forming a net of 30,000C lightning (5 times hotter than the surface of the Sun) . It will have alot of hafnium carbide heat shields and as lightning emits deadly radiation in the opposite direction, radiation shields will also be required.
It's not OP because everybody pretty much has their own sort of powerful weapon so I am allowed to have one, too. RNN will also try to make it suitable for handheld models somewhere in the future.
Tesla generator included. Once the prototypes are made the documents will be destroyed.
I am really tempted to start a war...
The AHC continues to improve its plasma tech. Now working missiles have been created. They can travel at up to MACH-9 and upon detonation a large cloud of plasma would expand up to 200 metres and burn everything in the radius with hot gas. Bigger models can travel slower but have a larger radius. The new plasma rockets are named the V3, after the older V2 rocket design.
I'm going to sound like such a douche, but...
...Do it.
I don't think that making plasma bombs is as simple as filling a giant rocket with plasma and expecting it to blow up on impact. Sorry but das ist nicht science.
Also, I just realized that dispensing positively charged nano cells would be very unreliable because they would be easily blown away by the slightest wind. Let's pretend the documents never said that...*burns the documents*. Now, let's start again...are you ready for how to make a Tesla weapon? Are you ready? ARE YOU READY?! Attach a Tesla coil to other jangy shmangy science equipment and voila! Exactly. I knew you would be breath-taken at my absolute genius!
No compliments needed.
Kydonian officials have finally passed it. Kydonia declares DefCon 2, and declares war on the Zylit. The threats and espionage end here. Kydonia asks its allies for support, so that a multi-front attack can be established. 14 regiments of Marines, LSFs, LCasts, and Praetorian Guards are now in the air, on their way to a nearby staging area for the offensive. All ABMs and Missile Guidance Jamming systems are activated and put to full alert. The Mainland is now a no-fly zone. Any transport will be fired upon.
The plan is to send in the ground forces in to destroy any and all anti-air capabilities. Then, high yield bombing of key positions will begin. CPB Lances will not be used unless necessary. The risk of civilian deaths is too great. If the Zylit refuses to surrender, then ventral CPB Lances will be used.
Long Live the Kydonian Republic.
The R.L. have finally finished and perfected their semi-automatic spring gun. It uses several coiled spings to propell the bullet forward, and also includes a small pressurised space in between the bullet and the back of the gun. Machine gun variants also use an air pump. Rest is classified.
New weapons like the Flash Grenade come into play. Basically it includes a ball of pressurised gas inside a shell of cheap airtight metals that is thrown at enemy front lines. The gas is sparked when it hits the ground, and releases a huge amount of energy in the form of light. Although it only serves as distractions, every R.L. soldier is required to carry at least 4 Flash Grenades.
We accept your surrender. Kydonia now occupies Madagascar, and offers the remaining parts of the Zylit to the Zylit leaders. Kydonia is not an empire. You may keep the rest of your territory.
