Good armor past ceramic torso plates and kevlar helmets is impossible for current technology to create.

Amendment II makes ballistic fabric, using carbon nanotubes.

That is still only bullet resistant, and provides no protection whatsoever against kenetic impact. A bullet from an AK-47 might not penetrate the armor, but if it hits you in the chest, it will break multiple ribs, knock the wind out of you for several minutes, probably knock you off your feet, and leave a bruise across half your torso. IF it hits the armor. You still can't protect most of the body with it. The face is still perfectly vulnerable.

Kevlar and plates don't provide absolute protection aginst kinetic impact either. There are uniforms with this fabric sewn in, and if you wanted, you could line your clothes with it at the cost of some mobility.

Okay, I have done some more brainstorming work on my fanfic, but I am starting to once again come to the conclusion that I suck at coming up with names....so i need some suggestions for various thing.

1) A name for the adopted daughter of Shepard and Tali. So far I do have a placeholder name, Ria, but I think i could do better then that.

2) Name for Tali's defense drone...I was really disappointed it did not get one in ME3, so screw it, the defense drone is getting a name in this story

3) Name of a ship. Basically I need some good ship names for various points in the game... those I have come up with are laughably cliche.

Besides that there are a few things i am trying to work out beyond this and would like input on.

-- Since the fic is 23 years later, Tali and Shepard are (obviously) married. As such Tali's name would be Tali'Shepard now...which does not sound right for some reason...atleast to me. I am thus trying to figure out if I should create some BS excuse why this is not the case, or just go with it anyhow.

--Judging by the fact that Tali is 22 when she is on her pilgrimage, it would make sense that Quarians age a bit slower then humans (or at-least take longer to reach adulthood). Just checking if this seems like reasonable analysis.

--How cliche would it be to have other major characters in the plotline be the children of other major character... its kinda the way i want to go with 1-2 of the 6 planned "squadmates" in one of the two plotline...but I am worried that would seem kinda dumb.

Well, Tali is a Quarian. So, since they're Quarian, they would probably not have the same marriage rituals. Just say that she didn't change their name since it's not her customs.

Well, the codex said that they live about the same time as humans. She may have just gone on her pilgrimage later. School and what not.

Well, children is inevitible. Liara's kids would probably be babies still, lol, but the others would work.

As for names, I planned on jsut naming adopted babies after her dad, and an important female character that died.

Revision batlskin would help a bit. Just add some RynoHide to the face part, and it would be ballistic.

It very well could be. I think the entire argument is silly, but it's whatevs. I like arguing so I ain't say much about it xP

If you want our servicemen and women to run around in their underwear then feel free to send a message to them Exelsis. Please bear in mind that military personnel receive training and wont stand their in the open waiting to get shot in the first place... Besides, you wouldn't be able to respond to these guys:

Nothing is fully protective, but anything is better than the nude bum that "Tali" is sporting in that picture.

[Terrorize69]

Omg.. sidetracking a sec, playing ME2 as femshep, shes in that formal dress, and she just sat.. on the boxes in the main battery, legs wide open with everything on display... no wonder Garrus is staring and stutturing... shepard likes to go commando it seems! :S

None of them have ass armor either. The only difference is that they have loose pants, while tali has a skintight suit.

And I checked the amendment 2 site. None of their CNT armors are rated for anything above handguns. And they are still somewhat bulky.

Anyways, back to Tali:

[Jull3]

Indeed. Wht do you think a horror for the Quarians were? Should show Tali any spider horror movie from earth.

My cameras still broken T_T

Well it seems you didn't even read my post, Tali like all Quarians have the 'same' suit which they need to survive due to their weak immune system.

No soft armor can defeat rifle rounds. Yeah, but it's pretty slim compared to everything else. However, something is better than nothing.

That... doesn't make sense. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the good armor = unachieveable topic. Yes quarians will die out of their envirosuits because their immune systems cannot cope, but they don't have the same suits. They modify them to their taste, and even in-game tali has a different suit design than other quarians.

Tali's actual suit is not shoved up her butt crack for the pleasure of some sad, disturbed "man" living in their mother's basement playing dungeons and dragons all day. Her real suit also is made of thick almost scaled looking leather on the bum, NOT saran wrap like the picture you so actively defend depicts.

Something is a lot better than nothing, but I'd rather whip up tali some *special* stuff, rather than encumber her with heavy armor.

I remember a question like this before. I think my answer was that Terminator movies would be similar to a horror movie for them; AIs nuking the world and hunting down organics mercilessly etc.

See here for a similar discussion about her name.

So Chikkita is her attack drone? Then...Boo?

Oh, most fighter jets here are named after animals, ships named after places or important phrases. So the "Keelah Se'Lai" would be a flagship, where the I-77 "Varren" would be a fast close-range fighter type. I believe you can find many options there, the "Illium", the "Elysium", the "Torfan Revenge" or the "Akuze".

She is the key figure besides Shepard to recover the homeworld...Tali'Lai vas Rannoch. A name of honor, like Pope John VI. or Henry VIII.

The legal age for transactions in Japan is 20, whilst in Germany it's 16. It can always just be a cultural thing.

It would be actually quite usual if you go into the semi-hereditary customs that the Quarians seem to have. Also, we know from Ashley that a bad stance of a relative can hinder you in the Alliance as well, so why not also the opposite? In the end, of course, it must be shown that it was partly skill that got them where they are. Tali and Shepard would most likely adopt a daughter that shows promise in her abilities.

So unbelievably close to reporting this guy as a troll. One can only start so many flame wars before getting burned. >_>

You know it's sad how you discuss a topic that is utterly and completely pointless since you could actually talk to your ceiling and get more flexibility, right?

Why don't you go back on Tali and away from sick minds?

Well if I am a troll, you could just starve me out. Don't feed the trolls, remember? You COULD stop at anytime. Theoretically.

You have her leaning over, take one of her standing. Because anyone leaning over will have a similar problem, especially if they're as wide hipped, and blessed with a bottom like Tali's

Oh well, obviously a bullet to the butt won't kill anyone, besides Quarians, but with Quarians they live in a day and age with barriers, and sheilds, and such, soooooo....this entire argument is silly, stupid, and a waste of precious Tali talking time. It's making you seem like a child Exelsis, and it makes us look bad for potentially feeding a troll. This has been done with a whild ago, why can't you both just agree to disagree, and move on. Besides, it's the internet!



sing that song, like that, and be happy.
