The Gol Wave System

One of the most ingenious defensive systems ever created, the Gol Wave system is in most revolutionary system devised for combat.  Designed by the Kilaaks in 1707 BC, the Gol Wave System was designed on the echolocation and application of sound by the race of bat-like aliens known as the Golfin.

The Golfin lived in subterranean caverns that did have bright amounts of light due to luminescent flora and fungi, but they had an echolocation system due to the excursions into the dark zones of caverns that were devoid of these florescent life forms. The Golfin were known to exude a concentrated blast of sound that is inaudible, but stimulates molecules around a target and disorienting them and causing their concept of range and accuracy to become warped. Seeing this, the Supreme Collective of the Kilaaks decided that this could be militarized.  The prototype system did merely this and was used for crowd control and against enemy troops. Then an advancement was made several centuries down the line.

A scientist and philosopher named Kiyaran, in the year 1352 BC, made a striking discovery. Using the same principle of how the Golfin-produced waves cause disorientation, this Kilaak made a system that could warp accuracy by three ways: 1.)  Causing disorientation of depth and distance of long ranges to the brain and senses. 2.) Creating waves that push energy away from an intended target due to the warping of the environment around either missiles, shells, or even kinetic energy itself. Thus, the farther it travels the less accurate it becomes.  This disorientation makes it very hard to shoot an object from long distances. 3.) Finally, a scrambling effect on targeting systems occurs, but now with modern technology over thousands of years, most targeting systems are not affected.

The system creates a maximum accuracy range where things can be hit without any hindrance from the system. If a projectile or what not exceeds 40% of what is after that maximum range (example 100 ft Maximum Accuracy Range and as opposed to 140 ft M.A.R. ) that projectile that exceeds that much of the range is a  25% chance to fail and miss the target. Then everything after that for another 40% of the M.R.A. is at another 25% chance to fail or miss the target, and so on and so on. However guided projectiles do have a 10% chance of missing for every 40% of the total M.A.R. they exceed.

How does this system actually work? First a source produces a low level wave that causes a wave that is on a very low frequency that basically does not affect matter on the macro level. This wave interferes with the Aether or the fabric of the universe (whatever one may call it) it causes a ripple, much like a stone would do to water. It doesn’t affect anything except motion of objects in the affected area. No biological organisms or movement of vehicles are truly affected, it’s things that are hurled in a direction without guidance that are pushed out of their course. The wave is produced by mechanical means so it must have a source. There are hidden generators thrwn all over the GCC territories, by the Kilaaks and others. However Gol Wave System generators are carried by many ships.  This has made the battlefield an even match between those that both have the system, but gravely disadvantage those who do not.

Note: All GCC members, the Bizzle, and now the Garoga have the system.
