Hypothetical: Shivans crash land on modern Earth.
You wake up one morning, and walk over to your TV. You turn it on, and hear on the news that an unidentified object about 3 Kilometers long crash landed just outside new york city.When they show a live scene of it, you notice it looks EXACLY like a Shivan Lucifer class destroyer. Nobody was killed in the impact, but there is no way it can be covered up(Everybody knows aobut it) and it right next to a major city. Also, teams sent inside the thing have seen some signs of life... and they have lost contact with one team.

What is your first reaction? What do you do? What happens on this forum?

First, I'd realize that if it really was ~3km long, not only would there not be no casualties, but there would most likely be several million casualties, so something must already be foul. Then, I'd remember that it was all part of my ingenious plan to take over the world, and I'd sit back and let mayhem ensue.

Wonder how :v: got information on Alien civilisation's spacecraft.  This forum would be deluged and probably go down after about an hour.  :v:'s employees would be taken into custody, I expect the government would send teams in with briefcase nukes and try to destroy it from the inside

You know, posting a fake news story like that would make for a phenomenal april fools joke.

At least, it would have.

But, but you have to. . . . . It's HLP law. You'll get lynched if you admit that you've never played JAD. Back on topic if the aforementioned events transpired through some incalculable coincidence, i've no doubt that Jeff goldblum and will smith would save us with a powerbook and fat lady victory cigars. :nod:

Re: Hypothetical: Shivans crash land on modern Earth.
You'd also get to see how shivans behave in gravity.
Every pilot's goal is to rise up in the ranks and go beyond their purpose to a place of command on a very big ship. Like the colossus; to baseball bat everyone.

Re: Hypothetical: Shivans crash land on modern Earth.
i bet it will come like this:

G.W.Bush will go there to greet the new arrivals and in order to offer a deal. greencard vs. beam weapon technology.

but even when the first shivan saw is ugly face the were fleeing by feet to cape canaveral in order to climb in the next shuttle leaving earth.....
