Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ To Look Back and Cry ❯ Author's NOtes ( Chapter 3 )
Author's Story Notes pt. 1
Well I've gotten some complaints that I'm not making this understandable. Well here's an explanation to what is going on now:
The reason for the huge numbers in the UCE's fleet is that the UCE owns most of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy that have who knows how many starsystems. The UCE don't just colonize the land part of the planet, they colonize every habitable area of a planted, even under the crust and the ocean. And that doesn't stop there, they even have orbital space colonies and lunar bases for housing the colonists. They must have all the room they can get and so far, there are about a trillion colonists on the elder colonies. The UCE also mine the asteroids and dead planets flying around in space and also recycle everything they use and so they are able to crate a huge force of Capitol Ships that are almost like Space Fortresses. The Humans use a Hyperspace Warp Jump Drive System for interstellar travel; it works by first puncturing a conduit into hyperspace, then dematerialize the starship into atoms that are kept from floating away by an energy field to reduce friction and reach their destination as soon as possible. The starships can choose the distance of the jumps by a system of jump distancing; for example, Hyper 1 is for jumping from one side of a Solar System to the other and Hyper 10 can go from one side of the galaxy to the other.
The almost very center of Human Technology is a powerful and plentiful crystallized plasma called Cryonite. Although the Humans have other source of energy; Solar, Ocean Currents, Nuclear Fusion, Neutrino collectors, Menthol; but Cryonite is the major power source of the Human Governments. It is absolutely necessary for it is a cheep, powerful and very plentiful source of power. To utilize the cryonite power, one must construct a gyro-generator, which basically looks like a gyro with the crystels in the exact center. When the rings spin and rotate, the crystals react and send off harmless energy which is collected by highly sensitive absorbers to collect the energy. The cryonite energy can be stored in synthesized cryonite crystals, which are excellent in containing energy and can be used as energy cells for Human Mecha.
The UCE uses energy weapons on their starships, starfighters, mechas, and individual soldiers and use shield devises that could even fit upon the arm of the individual soldier that can disperse any force upon it. The only weakness is that if the frequency, or energy fluctuations of the shield is identified and calibrated to the energy weapons, then the energy discharge would simply pass through the shield. This is a tactic that has been known as Frequency Warfare. The Energy Weapons varies from the simple Energy Discharge Pulses to Ion Pulses and Laser and finally to the Plasma Cannon. There are also energy warheads used within the missiles of the Humans. These warheads are Photons and Neutrons, which are standard for mini-missile capable crafts and mecha. Plasma is a favorite for mid and long-range missiles. Napalm is mainly a bomb warhead, multi-missile warheads are used to attack a large number of enemies. Armor perching, Smart Weapons that have a cheap, but highly successful AI computer into it that leads the weapon towards its target. Laser Fragmation, which is similar to milti-missile warheads but only go into straight lines and are basically lasers. Nuclear and Anti-matter weaponry, which are found mostly on heavy bombers and Capitol Ships, Explosives, which are rarely used in spacecraft. Biologica/Chemical Weapons are mainly used against the Crongus. A Quantum Weapon that creates a warp in space that can disrupt matter and rip it apart to a certain extent, and a terrible weapon known as the Quantum Detonator. The Quantum Detonator is basically a miniature black hole that, when detonated, can create an explosion equal to a hundred and fifty Hiroshima classed nuclear weapons.
There are three types of attack crafts in the Human Armory; one is type one mechanized units that have no similarities to the human form (Example: Tanks, Airplanes). Type two mechanized units have the form of humans (Example: Mobile Suits and Power armors). Type three mechanized units are those that could transform from type ones to type twos without outside assistance. (Examples: Wing Zero and the Epyon). The Type two and three mechanized units are armed with Energy Blades. They are similar to Beam Sabers but gain their energy from the bio energy of the pilot and the bio neural circuits, crystalline brain core and bio-fluid pumps.
The technology of the Humans could be categorized as part machine, part living. The Human Mecha is about 85% mechanical and 15% biological. The biological components of the mecha are as follows. The Bio-Neural Circuits are synthesized nerve cells that can transmit data almost instantaneous. The Crystalline Brain Core, which is a computer core modeled after the human brain by using silicon crystals in place of brain cells. Last are the bio-fluid pumps, which pumps nourishment fluids to the Bio-Neural Circuits and Crystalline Brain Core, similar to that of the human cardio system of blood vessels and heart. These biotech components have been with the Humans for at least three centuries. There is also experimentation and tests of Human Mecha with synthesized muscle tissues in place of the hydraulics system of traditional mecha.
The Turbo Thrust System was a mecha hydraulics system enhance that increases the speed of a mecha so fast that when it moves, only its blur can be seen. The Crongus optical scanners cannot keep up with a Turbo Thrust System equipped Mecha. It's only flaw is that it cannot endure a full minute and a half of continuous use.
Crystal Gundanium is one of the oldest types of space armor in Human History, dating back as far back as the year 2020 of the Common Era Calendar. It is an extremely cheap and strong alloy composed of crystallized gundanium that is stronger than gundanium. It is so cheap that you can refit an entire army of Leos with Crystal Gundanium Armor ranging to about a million, for the cost of the entire gunanium construction of the five gundams! Medicine is also quite advanced, doing most things that only the modern doctors could dream off. First off is the cloning process that could clone individual organs or a complete human. Then there's the nanoblob that is a fluid containing trillions of nanobots that can heal most wounds. There is also the ability to barely bring back the dead. In a process of cloning a person's body that take up to three days of incubation, copying and transferring of brawniness and the soul of a person into the clone body.
The Human Species has separated into four major groups; Normal Humans, Mutants, Telepaths, and Clones. The normal humans are the same old human beings. They are the majority of the population. Mutants are humans that posses unnatural abilities and powers, similar to the mutants of the X-men. Next are the Telepaths, humans who have evolved a trait to use the human brain to read the brainwave patters of humans or move objects by mind alone. The previous two have long since been accepted into human society. Lastly are the clones. The most persecuted of all the human groups. The Clones come in three types; Gemini, Organ, and Orphan. Gemini Clones are exact clones of the donor, they are the most hated among the other clones. The Organ clones are the cloned body parts of a donar, the lest hated because they have been proven to save lives. And then there are the Orphan Clones, test-tube babies cloned to the wills of the parents who are mainly couples who cannot produce children of their own. The only flaw in the cloning process is unnatural color to eyes and hair, similar to that of anime characters.
The Crongus Intergalactic Circle is an Empire that has sovereignty over 30% of the entire known universe. Their technology is that of living organisms. Their ships and Bio-Fighters are entire living organisms that are controlled by the Crongus but most amazingly is that their technology is mostly magic-based instead of science-based like that of the humans and other extraterrestrial life forms and are able to perform magical spells at will. They also created two species of synthetic warriors; the Qulans and the Vicoo. The Qulans are a species of giant, forty-foot tall giants that have either bat like wings or scale wings similar to that of a butterfly, but have sharper edges for use of cutting down opponents. The Vicoo are an insectoid race who's main purpose besides warfare, was to convert colony worlds to have a Methane-based atmosphere for the Crongus Colonists. The Crongus are a species of hunter/warriors who's tactics send chills to their enemies and have conquered galaxy after galaxy in their holy war of complete domination. The Crongus are mainly carnivores and eat an almost constant supply of meat, despite the fact that they have evolved into a form of pure energy.
To survive outside of their natural environment, the Crongus wear encounter suits that look like a buffed man in spandex and wearing a motorcycle helmet, exempt that the encounter suit is living and the legs have a dogged legged look and have velociraptor feet with huge claws, remittance of their biological past of velosoraptor-like creatures. They enjoy the suffering and pain of other species for they feel superiority divine, compared to other alien species. They go to lengths of ripping the organs from a still living soldier. Injecting them with a "Living Death" liquid that causes the body to feel intense pain, similar to that of death in which blood vessels bursts, nerves shock the body, flesh begins to rot and driving the soldier into suicide. Then there is "Soul Enslaving", in which the Crongus captures the soul of a victim and turn it into it's personal slave. The process begins when the victim is firmly restrained. A mechanical device is then placed over the "heart" of the soul, in many cases is located in the chest cavity of the victim. And then, for lack of better words, the device sucks out the soul from the body and then crystallizes it into a shard. The shard is then placed into a soul emitter which can either be a chest plate or amulet and from the emitter comes the soul, trapped in a force field shaped like their physiology and even have facial features from what they were once had in life. The soul can also feel pain as well as other feelings as if it were inside of it's own body so the Crongus master can punish the soul as if it were striking flesh instead of protoplasm. The device can also be shrunken and made into a type of gauntlet in which the individual Crongus warrior can litterally rip the soul out of opposing forces. Many UCE soldiers fear that this is one of many fates worst then death.
