For some reason, the thread never got transferred over to the vB. Anyway, a lot of you don't know what it is, so here: have a read...

It gets a little dodgy after Page 5, but hey... have a read, have a laugh, enjoy. :D

Must... resist... the urge... to read it again...


(people are already looking at me funny - I'm laughing just by remembering the thread... if I read it, I'll get kicked out of the room...)

That be bloody old, and possibly funny at first.

Then it just got... sad.

... wait.... oh crap, that was the one where I impersonated a Progenitor. Don't read it. Just... don't.

Well, when I say it's funny, I'm refering to the first few pages, while it was a full-scale posting rampage... it got kinda boring after that...

The GOU Loose Cannon breaks to a halt, drive fields throwing up livid streaks of energy.  If a warship could give the impression of looking around, it was doing so.

Hey Tesna, this area of space looks familliar.

You sure, oh overgunned bucket of bolts?

Careful or I'll Displace you into the pool again.

Out of the huge blue swirling storm comes a pitch-black shape that the Loose Cannon knows just too well. Deccelerating to a relative halt, the Apocalypse starts a quick scan of the area, following the standard procedure:

Styxx: Fire all weapons!

Suddenly, space is filled with the raw power of the Electrobeams™. Amused by the pretty fireworks, the Loose Cannon starts to approach the twenty-kilometer long ship...

Well well, if it isn't Admiral Barni and his flagship.  I thought we'd seen the last of him.

Guess we're not the only people who can be Stored and ressurected.

Nah, we went to see that supernova over by Capella, remember?  We left them behind, I guess they got away from all those other guys.

Oh right.  Those guys we picked up must have thought they were goners.  Lucky we picked 'em up before they got fried.

They were
really surprised when we dropped them off at their home planet.  Sheesh, you'd think they'd never seen their home for thirty years...

The Loose Cannon continued to leisurely fly towards the Apocalypse, dodging in and out of the electrobeams, amused by the spectacle.

That's probably the first thread that I ever read at HLP (that thread was like in June or May right?)...and then I went and looked at the Steak's Arrays and thought "hey that's pretty cool! I wonder if I could do that in Graphic Design at school?" I couldn't though (no FS models) but then I got PS6 on my laptop and I got 3DE and other programs and hey presto! I started rendering and then I decided, maybe I should actually join HLP and so here I am today...of course I can't render as well as the Steak but that's ok. :D

On board the GVA Setekh

Vasudan #1: I sense awakeness once again...
Vasudan #2: I concur.
Vasudan #3: I also... wait, I sense a disturbance... something... is not... right...
Setekh: Hey hey everyone!
Vasudan #3: I thought so...
Setekh: Alright, 'sup, guys!
Vasudan #1: Prepare for realspace emergence. Arm TerranTurret#Weaks. Emergence in three, two, one... transition!

The small AWACS vessel emerges from a swirling blue Vortex

Setekh: Hail the Apocalypse and the Loose Cannon...
Vasudan #2: Transmitting...
Setekh: Hey, f00s! It's not fair, you guys get to be in the same time zone. ;)

You should see us in the same room.

That would have to be a damn big room.

General bay, perhaps?

Yeah, that would work.

All of the Apocalypse's guns stop firing and start cooling down, space becoming once again the deep black that every starship crew knows so well. Two small shapes, though, pollute the otherwise pure landscape.

Styxx: Damn, I hate when they survive!

Random Lieutenant #437: Huh, sir, they're the same ships from that engagement...

Styxx: Which engagement lieutenant?

Random Lieutenant #437: You know, sir, that engagement.

Styxx: Aaaaahhhhh... Beware the small ship with the rotating part, they are armed with Terran Turret#Weaks!

Random Lieutenant #437: Sir, yes sir!

Styxx: Now, hmmm, gotta think of some funn... er, I mean, cohesive and efficient battle plan.

Random Lieutenant #437: Huh, pardon me sir?

Styxx: Nothing, nothing. We'll just sit here for a while... Y'know, see what happens.

There is a thunderclap and the TD Aquila emerges from a swirling vortex of fire, cutting a dark shadow across the bow of the Apocalypse...

Thunder: Watch your futures end.

As quickly as it arrived the TD Aquila vanished into the same vortex, leaving the three puzzled regarding its implications...

Yeah, and all your booze is belong to us, Aquila.  Geez, shouldn't let people drink and fly.

I wonder what that was all about, anyhow?

Your guess is as good as mine.  If you want to call what I do guessing.
