The Badfic from Hell...How to deal with the kidnappings? by Ugolino on 2009-02-26 19:02:00 UTC Reply

How exactly would two Agent pairs deal with the kidnapping of two heads of state, the entire fleets of two factions from a different universe appearing in orbit around Whoniverse Earth, and the ROTS era Sith and Jedi Masters running around the planet? Oh, and rebel troops are occupying New York...

We've narrowed it down to three or four main options, listed in decreasing advisability:

1)Persuade the Imp fleet to follow our orders through the use of the EU recognition codes and tow them with a PPC issue TARDIS on loan because of the above.

2)The same, except a modified Doctor's TARDIS is substituted for the PPC issue one. Rather pointless when you're practically replacing the TARDIS with DoSAT tech...

3)Use the Little Doctor on both fleets. Hope they respawn in the right universe.

4)Get yet another fleet from a different universe/the Whoniverse and use it to persuade the two SW fleets to cooperate. Most of the choices are either too weak (Star Trek/Haloverse) or untrustworthy (Dalek flying saucers/Warhammer 40k Chaos).

agreement with kgarrett... by Techno-Dann on 2009-02-27 16:36:00 UTC Reply

I think a really big portal would be a reasonable approach.

If you need persuasive power, you could always borrow/hijack an Imperial Navy fleet from 40k - as long as you set the rules to Battlefleet Gothic instead of fluff-verse, they're just as good as Chaos.

Somehow I don't think a personal remote activator will do the trick...

How would we stop the Imperial Navy fleet from going trigger-happy? A third OOU fleet, while good for the lulz, might result in Bad Things happening...

Trojie and Pads employed an AU Wash from Firefly, the Defiant from Star Trek DS9 and eight satellites containing modified portal generators to dump an entire uncanonical planet into a canonical destruction of planet-y things in an SGA fic ... perhaps you could use some method like that?

Yes. by Ugolino on 2009-02-27 21:15:00 UTC Reply

That's the incident I was thinking of, but the fleets in this fic are probably canon.

On a more practical note, if there's a superweapon out there that can take out 100+ Mon Cal ships and 23,000 ImpStars...

Sun Crushers- belong to DOGA
Darksaber-bad joke
Thought bomb-No. Just no.
Malevolence/Devastation-both either destroyed or in use for all known instances in canon. Also, ridiculously outnumbered.
the Little Doctor/MDD-No.

Portal-wise, the City of Heroes Universe has the Rikti, essentially evolved humans, who were able to make portals of essentially any size appear wherever they wanted, required a large power source, but hey, we have that in the Department of Dead Author Electricity Generation.
Superweapons, on the other hand, might be a little harder, especially on a scale that large. In your shoes, I'd probably actually delve into a Goodfic and see if they have something that might help you. Permission from the author, obviously.

Or, as an alternative, use something that both / all groups are completely unused to. In this case, magic. If you're after a group that would know what was going on (From the PPC point of view), I'd recommend the Crest Holders from 'Worlds Apart', by Articunomew. They're powerful enough to actually fight a fleet that big if need be, but would be able to send them back to their correct Universes if that's the choice you want as well.

You could probably get away with having Canon help out by Sedri on 2009-02-27 06:23:00 UTC Reply

with some of it. "Snapping back into place" and all of that could take care of at least some of your problems... unless it's so badly abused it doesn't know what's what. I'm not sure. It's not the sort of scale I usually tackle on a job.
Really big portal? by kgarrett on 2009-02-26 23:35:00 UTC Reply

I'm not being sarcastic here, it's a solution I think could be tried. If you could make a portal big enough, you could just portal the fleets and other canons back to their home continua.
