      My guess it is an EMP. So they either had a nuke onboard or overloaded their warpdrives or something to cause the EMP. So the ships systems were off and they were simply dead in space but still heading for their destination, the enemy ship. Using EMP waves when facing multiple enemies isnt that smart as you will shut off your friends as well.

    With the ship at first encounter disabled, why the heck would the human commander ram his ship into his opponent? Cruise up in a leisurely fashion, smack a few railgun rounds into the hull, expand your breech from there. And subsequent encounters, which are not documented in the story the "wave of energy" is totally useless, after taking down their shields in the first encounter? Yeah, you're missing 50-100 pages of narrative jumping to a devastated Earth.

      Well... Uh... The talosari had no reason to raise shields for just another routine primitive species.

      Plus, the EMP likely took out anything requiring digital systems on the human vessel, or perhaps even the analog ones too. Severely crippling the ship.

    Real voice is so much better than tts to make stories more lively and rich, much appreciated effort deserving of my sub😃👍
    Storie itself is non-sensical from beginning to end tho... Dialogs and humans dynamic are decently written but lacks some depth imho 4/10
    HOW can an alien race, "dominant" for millenias be THAT dumb? Have they never encoutered, solar flares or EMPs, predators anywhere AND can't remember how use their own tools/brain to feed their AI data to devise ANY new counter-measures at all? Seriously? Unless they "dominated" empty space and no others had space faring tech before?
    Need more work on research and logic to make good Sci-Fi, not just techno-babble-sciency words and set it in space. Would recommend the author writing class and reading more of the giants in the genre. Not just unpublished web-authors, so many are between complete trash and passable, too few rise above a 6/10 imho. (Not an expert mind you, just an aging reader who had a lot of time in the past 35 years and declining vision, sorry if you think I'm too harsh)

    • @AenVegra

      I happen to be a small-time sci-fy writer. These are just hfy stories, no flak to the reader please-
      That said, yeah, I agree, the jumps are jolting. It can easily be explained that the EMP only was effective because they had no protecting shields up. I mean, it's a primitive vessel, no one would be so dumb to attack like that, right?
      Also, you've just fried your own systems power-so uh... the ship that used the EMP is now disabled. Except for analog powered engines and stuff. So their own vessel is pretty crippled.
      The question just is... why? Sure, they're snooty as hell, but does that warrant blowing up an EMP and then suiciding into another ship? Literally, WHY? I'm siding with the aliens here, it was logical that a ship wouldn't just attack and suicide into you for no reason.
      It just seems like a contrived premise. I know, i know. They like certian things to happen. Writer's perrogative to be doing things that make them happy. But can't you at least make it easier on us?

  • @theidiotwhosnotstupid5424

    Way too much plot holes and inconstistencies. Went from having the advantage of screwing with Talosari electronics to going fully desperate terrorist brained kamikaze mode. And the story itself doesn't do much to justify blowing up the planet other than than simply stating that humanity is in the brink of extinction, which is - as much as barbaric and animalistic humans as we know are especially with nothing to lose- still unrealistic/not grounded enough and ruins the immersion.
    EDIT: The story would maybe work if I completely shut down the left side of my brain but with sci-fi stories I expect to be intellectually stimulated and immersed at least within the context of the plot, even if some things doesn't make a lot of sense. Humans seem way too barbaric and braindead here, and HFY is the last thing that comes to mind.
    Loved the narration tho.
