Thor Kerrigan Guardians of Asceticism 155	Posted - 2012.07.30 03:10:00 - [31] - Quote I doubt they would know how to deal with gravitational fields, orbits, ships colliding, being kited past 249 KM etc, etc. Our world is very much different. ... And they would also fail at cloaking their ships. OH NO I DIDN'T
Sobaan Tali Caldari Quick Reaction Force 68	Posted - 2012.07.30 04:21:00 - [32] - Quote Perfect idea, we wait until they hit downtime, then use said latex ballons to infiltrate their corps/alliances and steal a **** ton of supers, take all their isk, and then just to add insult to injury, disband them. Special Note: If we go with Latex Ballons, I would advise MacGuyver...he should know how to make it work like a pro.
Katrina Oniseki Revenent Defence Corperation Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 752	Posted - 2012.07.30 07:20:00 - [33] - Quote Raya Chandragupta wrote: They can't get here anyway because they have no jump gate for that purpose and are too stupid to figure out another way to travel long distances. Alpha Centauri is the closest star system to Sol at 4.37 light years away. One light year is 63241.1 AU. Alpha Centauri is 276,363.607 AU away. A Buzzard covops can travel at 13.5 AU/s at warp. That Buzzard, equipped with a cynosural field, can make the distance between Alpha Centauri and Sol in just under six hours, not including acceleration or deceleration between warps, or capacitor capacity. There's some deeper math involved to factor in those - but it wouldn't take very long to go inter-system on warp drives alone. You don't NEED stargates, but game mechanics and balance force us to. ... after all, how do you think those stargates got there in the first place?
rodyas Tie Fighters Inc 585	Posted - 2012.07.30 07:23:00 - [34] - Quote Give them Africa, then watch them leave. P.S. We won't be invaded anytime soon. I will not be voting in the CSM election, so you need to go vote to make up for me.

Otrebla Utrigas Iberians Iberians. 29	Posted - 2012.07.30 10:00:00 - [36] - Quote Could the Aztecs fight the spanish conquistadores? No, they couldn't. Earth fighting against an invading enemy will be screwed. Hard. Because if you have the speed and height, you have the upper hand in combat. They can just bombard our cities or just unleash a viric disease to kill all humans (and reduce them to recycled goo like in the Crysis game) Also, the DUST tech will wtfpwn our current military except if we use tactical nukes. Which in the end won't matter cos they don't lose soldiers (clones) and their production capabilities are way way superior to us (thousand of planets against just one) Or they can just use an orca with Tractors and haul a small (15km wide) asteroid to earth. They don't even need Warships!!
Spy 21 Lonetrek Exploration and Salvage 126	Posted - 2012.07.30 10:56:00 - [37] - Quote I don't think any of the empires would be intent to wipe out humanity. After all, they are Human. The Amarr would enslave us allowing the converts to live with some freedom creating a religious dictatorship to replace the current governments. The Galente would want to bring us into their .'Federation'.... that is after the destruction of existing planetary government. The Caldari would buy up Manhattan and all the major exchanges and rule the planet from there and... The Minmatar would only be interested in harvesting all the duct tape from Home Depots around the world. The pirate factions would be something else though...

Cloned S0ul Blood Fanatics 171	Posted - 2012.07.30 11:14:00 - [38] - Quote Offer to them Planetary interaction free form tax, and infrastucture hub, just for relax like we do... Teemo for president.
Pak Narhoo Knights of Kador 640	Posted - 2012.07.30 11:15:00 - [39] - Quote Microwave that pod! Microwave that pod! Hi, I'm CCP Arrow, I screwed up the.. ummm...
Caitlyn Tufy Refuge of Hope Lemniskate 20	Posted - 2012.07.30 11:46:00 - [40] - Quote Adam Junior wrote: Earth could be exterminated by orbital bombardment in minutes.[/quote] This. One study showed that using just 300 of russian strategic nukes, U.S. would suffer around 90 million casualties in half an hour - that's 1.5x the total amount of casualties in WW2. A civilization in orbit around Earth could reach any spot on Earth in minutes and would likely posess far more weapons than the cold war ever produced, with better (and easier) delivery systems. Hell, a mass driver system (railgun) could easily reach the TNT value of a tactical nuke with none of delivery problems and an incredible rate of fire. Long story short - we'd be screwed before the battle even began.
Metal Icarus Minmatar Defence Force 229	Posted - 2012.07.30 13:20:00 - [41] - Quote Currently, they can't bombard the planet. However, I would hate to see planet earth covered every square inch with planetary interaction stuff. Farm? Nope. command center. Apartments? Nope, harvester.
Taranius De Consolville Lost Dawn Chaos Corrosive. 83	Posted - 2012.07.30 13:22:00 - [42] - Quote Leah Solo wrote: So I just watched a documentary on nat geo about aliens invading, and how Earth's population might defend from it. Turned out the ultimate weapon was some nonsense, about infiltrating enemy carriers with latex balloons and destroying them from the inside on a suicide mission. So my question is, what if capsuleers invaded Earth? What if Amarr, Minmatar, Caldari and Gallente combined forces to take over? What could we do to stop them? Could we stop them? Balloons? Fire away. Yeh i watched that months ago, using bacteria, shows the limited stance, if we were colonised, there would be no fighting back, if they can travel thru space, we are fuxed
Denidil Red Federation RvB - RED Federation 349	Posted - 2012.07.30 13:23:00 - [43] - Quote you're all forgetting that earth didn't go through a 20k year dark age ... if the empires of the new eden cluster managed to stabilize the eve gate and attempt to invade the milky way... they would probably get ****** HARD. If you don't see a problem in 0.0 eroding into two big super-coalitions and a few hangers on in areas nobody cares about.. then you don't have brains.
Joneleth Rein The Scope Gallente Federation 3	Posted - 2012.07.30 13:44:00 - [44] - Quote It's easy actually. We show them Eve and tell them they are all our characters :P Total mind**** Spider Pig!-áSpider Pig! Does what a Spider Pig does.. Can he swing? From a web.. No he can't. He's a pig.

I'm surprised it took this long for someone to point this out. Terrans, in EVE, are probably so powerful they make what the Jovian Empire used to be look like kids playing around.

FloppieTheBanjoClown The Skunkworks The Marmite Collective 2056	Posted - 2012.07.30 21:04:00 - [47] - Quote An advanced race could obliterate us from orbit. Or they could blanket the planet in poisonous gas. Or they could engineer a virus to wipe us all out. They might even be able to do something like strip the ozone layer off the atmosphere or simply deploy a large mirror on the dark side of the earth to reflect the sun's rays back, cooking us in a relatively short time. And there's no telling what sort of technologies they might have that we haven't even imagined. Invasion stories largely relies on the aliens being arrogant to the point that they ignore threats and use defensive systems with weaknesses that can be identified and exploited by a low-tech species even after it has lost most of its combat capabilities. The only way we'd have a fighting chance is if the invaders were desperate. If they arrived with limited resources and were unable to engage us from orbit (or unable to defend themselves against our nuclear counter-attack and found their orbital strike capabilities crippled), then it's feasible to have a scenario where all of humanity is pitted against a small but technologically superior force. Our struggle would be learning to counter their technology so that we could inflict real damage before they could cripple us to the point that we couldn't take the fight to them. The Skunkworks is recruiting. -áhttps://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1540711#post1540711
Hiyora Akachi Bling Ring Tax Evaders 35	Posted - 2012.07.30 21:41:00 - [48] - Quote We'd die. Simple as that. As it stands, we have nothing that could harm any of the EvE warships. Orbital bombardment would crush any resistance before we even knew what was going on.
ugh zug 24	Posted - 2012.07.30 21:45:00 - [49] - Quote eh? chuck a big rock at any planet problem solved. Want me to shut up?-á Send me ISK and i'll stop giving suggestions to CCP that make sense. Remove content from my post, 15 bil Remove my content from a thread I have started 30bil.

I think thats just so the ship targets the exact placement of the enemy and doesn't vaporize the whole area..
