The nukes we have won't work if we fire them at the ship's exterior.  Even if we ignore the impenetrable shield, we could fire every nuke we've got at the thing and barely scratch the surface.

You forget that Shivans landing on Earth Does not mean the Lucifer.

[TrashMan]

CHRASH land   I don't think the Lucifer would be in a spiffy condition..

[Kie99]

The impact won't damage it, this thing shrugs off 5GT bombs like nobody's business.

[TrashMan]

If it crash lands that means it wasn't working properly or was damaged to begin with.

And shield won't help you when you collide with a planet. I doubt the planet will budge.

[eliex]

 Unless its flipping dense.

[Dark RevenantX]

The mass field in the tables proves that the Lucifer would be the one moved the most in a Planet vs Lucifer collision.  Unless, of course, the Lucifer was traveling at an impossibly fast speed, in which case the Earth would be rather damaged and the Lucifer would be atomized.

[AlphaOne]

Even so a crash of a ship the size mass and density of the Lucifer would be more catastrophic then that of a meteor. Hell we would go extinct even without the shivans actualy waging war on us. Lol the ironi all they have to do is fricking crash ) =))

[ssmit132]

Yeah, but you're assuming that the Lucifer will crash like a meteor. It could come in gradually - we don't know how a Lucifer would perform in an atmosphere, they may have enough anti-gravity things or something to have a 'soft' (relatively) landing.)

Oh, yeah, and they may have already been here:

[AlphaOne]

well for them to have anti-g fields would be a very logical thing since well we know they can withstand beeing very close up and personal to the Sun . And we know the GTVA can do that too. Also for them to have gravity on board ships meanthey have a pretty nice idea of how to make or brake gravitational forces. To a degreee of course.

As a part time minion, I fall in line with Karajorma and prepare to open up the first annual "SHIVAN CON!!!"

Seriously we should move this to fanfiction and then have people make a chapter each using REAL people (but I have a nagging suspicion it would mirror ROBOTECH, a LOT) 

Who would we assemble to investigate the Wreck, and who would guard that team?

Sagan & Hawking guarded by Chuck & Hogan (Watcha gonna do Shivans when Hulkamania runs wild on you???)

 

[Mura]

If the shivans have razor sharp claw like things, then making them run for a long time should be enough to make the murphy laws come into action and make the old "don't run with scissors" become true.

 

[FreeSpaceFreak]

One more nice thing: would the Shivans come and investigate what happened to the lost Lucifer? If they decide to Base Delta Zero us (Yes, I know that's Star Wars) we'd be in serious trouble, with all of our no-weapons-in-space treaties. A volley of SM-3 missiles won't help us.

[Polpolion]

I would actually offer Derek Smart to them as a sacrifice. That would lure them out of the lucifer, and while they are enjoying their lunch, I would steal the lucifer and go joy riding.

[Mura]

I think Derek would be the actual reason why Shivans would want to destroy mankind IMO 

[karajorma]

Hmmmmm. Looks like they have actually landed. The news doesn't seem that interested though.

[Snail]

Hmmmmm. Looks like they have actually landed. The news doesn't seem that interested though.

Where's that frum?

[karajorma]

It's from a BBC sketch show called That Mitchell & Webb Look. If you liked it check out the one on  German SS officers in the related links.

[Kie99]

  That's class

[Ryan]

Hmmmmm. Looks like they have actually landed. The news doesn't seem that interested though.

Giant metal crabs...

Humm... We could hack their systems and install Windows on it! TOTAL ANNIHILATION!

Oh well, in a seriously real scenario: Complete, utter, total destruction and annihilation of mankind. They've got these ShiSlashers mounted on their suits to kill like 100 people in one go.
