Welcome to the Feditary Academy for Tripidion Physiology.
As a Warman Recruit, you will learn how the war started between the Feditary and the Tripidions. You will also learn about the Tripidions unique
reproductive abilities. Humoristic behavior during this learning process is subject to your arrest. This information may save your life. Billions
upon billions of human beings have been killed by the Tripidions. The survival of the human race is no laughing matter.
What started the Feditary-Tripidion conflict?
In the year 2862, the Feditary encountered a Tripidion ship for the first time. While attempting to make contact with it, the front-line fleet of
Feditary ships was attacked and destroyed. Support ships quickly retreated from the area however, the Tripidions caught up to every one of them and
destroyed them all.
Earth One declared war on the Tripidions and ordered all Feditary ships to pursue and destroy them. This order was impossible to carry out because the
Feditary lacks the technology to defeat the Tripidions in a ship-to-ship battle. While the declaration of war appeased the population in the Sun Solar
System, distrust and disdain increased throughout the Feditary toward their fatherland, Earth One. Despite their orders from Earth One, the Feditary
avoids contact with the Tripidions whenever possible as a means of survival.
What are some of the key differences between the Feditary and Tripidion ships that make it difficult for the Feditary to defeat the Tripidions in a
ship-to-ship battle?
The Tripidions shot lasers that penetrated all Feditary force shields and armor with a single shot, destroying the Feditary ships on contact. The
Feditary shot laser cannons at the Tripidion ships. Unknown to the Feditary in that first battle, the Tripidions consume energy as food so by
shooting laser cannons at the Tripidions, the Feditary was actually making the Tripidions stronger.
The Feditary quickly switched their weapons from lasers to ballistics, a technology that hadn't been used in battle since the 23rd century (over 600
years ago). Such a massive step backward in technology did not go over well with the Warmen at that time however, in battle, they quickly learned
what a brilliant decision switching to ballistics was.
High caliber ammunition damaged the Tripidion's ship-based laser cannons and during times when the Tripidions raided Feditary ships, the bullets had
some effect. It took a lot of ammunition to take down a single Tripidion but it was possible. The battles were grueling for the Feditary. Many
ships and many Warmen were lost in every battle. It was not uncommon to lose 10 Warmen before the Feditary bested 1 Tripidion.
Given the Tripidions' ability to consume energy, the Feditary's decision to switch to ballistics was indeed a wise choice. It also highlights the
importance of adapting to the enemy's strengths and weaknesses in warfare. However, the grueling nature of the battles and the high cost of victory
underscores the immense challenge that the Feditary faces in their conflict with the Tripidions. It speaks to the tenacity and bravery of the Warmen
who fight in these battles, as well as the desperation of the Feditary in trying to defend themselves against an enemy they are ill-equipped to
fight.
*****SPOILER ALERT BELOW*****
How did the Feditary eventually defeat the Tripidions?
The Feditary discovered an abandoned spaceship they called the Cannonizer. This ship had a 1-kilometer laser cannon on the front of it. While the
Tripidions were capable of consuming vast amounts of energy, the Cannonizer was capable of obliterating entire planets with a single shot. The
Tripidions also had and used such technology however, the Cannonizer had a larger cannon and further range. It was also very easy to reverse
engineer. The Feditary used this found Cannonizer as well as other replica spaceships to finally defeat the Tripidions and destroy their homeworld.
Oddly, the ship seemed to have a TransDimension drive that would allow the Cannonizer to travel to other universes. The TransDimension drive was
disabled and enough of the parts were missing that the Feditary was unable to exploit this part of the discovered technology. However, the inside of
the Cannonizer was four times larger than the outside which meant that 75% of the ship seemed to exist in other unknown places at the same time. When
they looked out the windows of the back 75% of the Cannonizer, star maps were not able to identify what they were looking at. This means the back 75%
of the Cannonizer was not located in our universe. Even so, when inside the Cannonizer, one could safely traverse through the entirety of the
ship.
Other than the TransDimension drive, the ship was in pristine shape. It is believed the Cannonizer was left behind for either the Feditary or the
Tripidions to discover. It is possible a race of beings even superior to the Tripidions simply wanted the war between the Feditary and Tripidions to
end without regard for who won. The Tripidions, as powerful and advanced as they were, were certainly no match for whatever beings created this
amazing spaceship. Luckily, the Feditary found it first. The Feditary only hoped there was not another such ship that was discovered by the
Tripidions. Fortunately, that was not the case.
The sheer power of the Cannonizer's primary weapon as well as the ship's ability to coexist in at least two separate universes at the same time is
astounding. This is why the Feditary believed the ship came from a race of beings so advanced, they almost rivaled the power of our deity, Tac.
It's fascinating how advanced technology can give rise to such awe and wonder, and even make us question the limits of what is possible.
The Tripidions can not or will not negotiate with the Feditary. It is possible the Tripidions are genocidal in nature and simply do not regard
communicating with lesser beings as a concept in their culture.
The Feditary has been able to capture some Tripidion corpses. Tripidions leave their dead and seriously injured behind, always. Tripidions seem to
celebrate their kills however, if one of them is killed, they have no regard for it whatsoever.
The Feditary has discovered that the Tripidions have three sexes and each of the three sexes is required to reproduce.
