no the palmer's name isn't Trek related,

sorry to all who didn't get a ship, but i only did people that I could think of some personality quark to use.

I'll see if I can come up with something.

nice

to all who care but couldn't guess, the first chiropractor, and founder of the first chiropractic college was Palmer.

I should've known that. I thought it was a reference to Robert Palmer, though I guess you're a bit too young to know who that is.

Some like it hot, eh?

Might as well face it.................your addicted to love.

now introducing the Jacorn Confederation:

Eim Class
The Federation first encountered the Jacorn Confederation through the meeting of the USS Andoria and a Jacon Eim Class vessel in 2392. The subsequent destruction of the Jacorn vessel ignited a two week war between the two powers. During this war, the Federation learned the Eim was considered a Battle Cruiser, and was armed with some kind of new beam wepons, different than phasers or disruptors, and a new torpedo, the graviton torpedo. Both wepons systems were however overall much less effective and weaker than the Federations wepons. After the war, the Federation and Jacorn negotiators traded some cultural and technological information revealing the nature of the new Jacorn wepons.

Overall: 1024.076

Sharla Class
A Jacorn Battleship, this vessel was encountered during the war with the Confederacy. Significantly larger than the Eim Class Battle Cruiser and much more heavily armed, the class was still no match for the Federations war-ships. The Sharla is armed with the same Oly-euron beams, as they are called, as the Eim and with Graviton torpedoes. Little else is known about this ship.

info on Jacorn Wepons:
Oly-euron Beam Wepons: used charged zetrion (yes this is a new particle) particals to emit the beam. effects last 2.1 seconds always. The Jacorn have developed a way to put the wepon into an array, and by running the array it is possable to create Oly-euron bursts longer than 2.1 seconds.four types are currently in use:
Type Zo: 100TW
Type Ki: 500TW
Type Sha: 850TW
Type Lu: 3000TW

Graviton Torpedo: The torpedo uses graviton wave disruption to cause distortions in space-time around the enemy. Effects are most pronounced at warp where the fluxuations can cause the warp bubble to collapse destroying the ship. at subwarp speeds these fluxuations still cause decient damage to the ship rated at 21 Isotons. the gravitational distortions can also cause shield emmitters to overload taking down shields and leaving the ship exposed for Oly-euron wepons.

Are these jacorn descended from aquatic species? I ask because these ships remind me of a cuttlefish and a shark, respectively.

I was wondering if anyone was going to pick up on that...yes they are.

I actually aimed the Eim class off an eel-like thing but I can see the cuttlefish idea with it.

Could we have some form of explanation on the mechanics of the weaponry?

Well, he said (magic particle X) creates some sort of damaging effect for 2.1 seconds, with arrays being able to sustain the reaction longer. I get the impression that it's an exotic reaction, but one that they haven't really mastered, as it's weaker than the phaser's (magic nadion reaction) effect.

As for the graviton torpedoes (which the Borg use), they should be self-explanatory.

oh yeah...duh

It's probably different than the borg's graviton torpedo...It might not be though, I don't know anything about the Borg version.

Reliant what kind of explanation were you wanting?

well we know (sort of how a phaser works). Just a basic talk on particles involved and what you do with them. Are they magnetically controlled, are the focused through anything, are they shunted through crystals (like phasers)
